Arn Anderson, the former head coach of the Nightmare Family in AEW, once again appeared on screen alongside Cody Rhodes at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
Cody Rhodes Was preparing to make his entrance for the main event of WWE SummerSlam 2024 when familiar faces greeted him. Not only was he accompanied by Pharaoh, the beloved dog, on a farewell run of his own, and the pet Cody proclaimed is the "Undertaker of wrestling pets, but he was also greeted by Arn Anderson.
Despite preparing for a match without rules, Arn Anderson did not hand Cody Rhodes a Glock. Rather, he encouraged him and let him know that he does have some friends and might not be outnumbered against Solo Sikoa in a match that favors The Bloodline.
"You're a damn fine [WWE Champion]. Do you know how I know? Because 54,000 people say so... You've got four pissed-off Island Boys. They want to destroy the memory of Roman Reigns and they want to take what you've worked your whole life for. So, you know they're coming, and as the champion, you know you've got a target on your back. But it just so happens that I've still got a little influence in some of these locker rooms and I've just weaved in and out and had a couple of conversations. You still got friends and a couple you already know about... They are on the way," said Anderson.
