In a new interview with Fightful, Rhodes was asked to share his thoughts about answering questions related to AEW/non-WWE things while doing media.

"We just did that media scrum and the first question was about something that was not happening here. I think I’m going to...not decline, you don’t want to decline or no comment, but I think I’m going to politely tell folks that these questions get me more slack than they do help. I like to answer, but, no heat with WrestlePurists, but they just run these quotes. Picture of you, here’s the quote. The truth is, yeah, you said it, but you said it in the context of a larger story. I might just say, ‘Hey, I have given my answer about that time, and it really was a wonderful season of my life, ask another question.’ That might be the way to go."

Elsewhere in the interview, Rhodes discussed the possibility of him winning the World Heavyweight Championship. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
