Big change made to AEW Battle of the Belts.
AEW has announced that Cody Rhodes is unable to defend his AEW TNT Championship against Sammy Guevara at AEW Battle of the Belts as he is not medically cleared.
As a result of Cody being pulled from the event, Dustin Rhodes will step in to face Guevara with the Interim TNT Championship on the line.
