Cody Rhodes States He Allowed WWE To Use His Father’s Name
December 24, 2019Cody Rhodes is playing nice with WWE.
Last week WWE announced the return of Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament coming in early 2020. The interesting thing though as far as them using the ‘Dusty Rhodes’ name, Cody does own the trademark to the name. So one would think that because of that WWE would not be able to use Duty’s name.
Cody himself responded to someone on Twitter saying Cody should be mad that WWE did this, and Cody stated that he gave WWE permission to use his father’s name.

If you follow this account, than I’m sure you’ve seen how complimentary to WWE I am and often. I literally just gave them rights to use my dads name for their tag tournie.
