As previously noted, WWE announced that they would be bringing back the “Starrcade” name for their upcoming SmackDown event during Thanksgiving weekend on Saturday, November 25th in Greensboro, N.C.

For those not aware, Dusty Rhodes created the event back in 1983 with the first three shows taking place on Thanksgiving night in Greensboro.

Cody Rhodes responded to WWE bringing the event back and asked for the company to book his brother Goldust on the card.

Dear @MichaelPSHayes1

If you're afraid an event won't sell cuz' the holiday and want one of my Dad's events…at least book Goldy..

Cody’s wife Brandi was more critical of WWE’s decision to bring the event back and wanted the company to give credit to Dusty for the event:

While speaking to FanBuzz, Cody Rhodes revealed why his time with Global Force Wrestling was only a short run.

“Brandi was watching Maria and Mike (Bennett) on Pop and she wanted to go. I didn’t have any plans to go, but I thought I could absolutely try to help make that happen. I didn’t have a bad outing at all or a single complaint. I do think it was a bit misleading to fans whereas I had only signed on to do 3-4 dates and I didn’t re-sign — I would have made everyone aware if I had re-signed. So it was a little misleading because I think they made it seem like I was part of the roster and I really wasn’t, I was just dropping in and saying hello on occasion,” Rhodes said.

“They let me do that, so I respect Impact for letting me do that. I really liked Dixie (Carter), really liked Billy (Corgan), really liked Jeff and Karen (Jarrett). No complaints.”

The Wrestling Observer reports that Brandi Rhodes left Global Force Wrestling after she requested her release, which was granted. Brandi recently got a job on a non-wrestling television show in Atlanta, Georgia and GFW wanted a percentage of her earnings for that job. She refused to give up 10 percent of her earnings and asked for her release from the company.

Moving forward, Brandi plans to work for Ring of Honor and other independent wrestling promotions.
