Cody Rhodes challenged Mr. Brodie Lee for the TNT championship on tonight’s (Oct. 7) episode of Dynamite in a Dog Collar match.
The blood was freely flowing in this brutal war; it’s not at all surprising that Cody was immediately wearing the crimson mask in his first match back in roughly two months. But it was still a gruesome sight to behold.

Despite the hefty amount of blood loss, Cody fought back by using the dog collar to yank Brodie off the apron and right into a cutter.

Cody followed that up with a package piledriver through a table.

Brodie’s face was a disgusting bloody mess shortly thereafter.

Arn Anderson entered the fray, delivering a spinebuster to a Dark Order underling before being attacked by Lee.

Cody and Brodie used every move in their arsenal but the match simply would not end. So Cody then wrapped the chain around Brodie’s face multiple times and nailed one final Cross Rhodes, and that was enough for the win.
Cody is the new TNT champion.
Afterwards, an angle was set up for next week’s anniversary show, where a TNT championship match between Cody and Orange Cassidy is now booked.
