It’s been five weeks since AEW’s television debut and the show is proving to be a smash. AEW Dynamite has already garnered high ratings along with praise from fans. So what does AEW’s EVP Cody Rhodes have to say about the show’s success?

During an interview with ESPN’s Cheap Heat, Rhodes was asked to grade AEW Dynamite. Here’s what he had to say:

“I would give it an A. I’d say four of the five shows, I would give an A+. I only say that because the execution is the main thing, we have to execute and we have this long form plan, and we had been planning this for quite some time, and it’s a lot more traditional booking vs. writing, and with traditional booking, you’re going backwards from these major events, so I have to stop being a fan on a regular basis when it comes to Dynamite itself, when it comes to TV, I’m honored everything that happens. I’m honored that I have a chair for myself in the go position, that I have my own headset, I’m honored that I have my own office, all these little things, I have to stop caring about, and just say, ‘Ok, cool, that’s great, now let’s validate why these things exist.'”
