Watch heart-stopping moment bloodied AEW star Cody Rhodes moonsaults off top of steel cage on to rival Wardlow

Rhodes got off to a shaky start after Wardlow lawn-darted him headfirst into the side of the cage.

But he bounced back and hit his opponent with his CrossRhodes finisher for a two count.

The 34-year-old then climbed to the top of the steel cage as the referee tried to get Wardlow back on his feet.

Out of nowhere, Rhodes pulled off a picture-perfect moonsault to secure the victory.

He needed to win to secure his showdown against MJF at the Revolution PPV on February 29.

And he did exactly that at AEW's first cage match - which sent fans wild on social media.

One said: "Damn... that was incredible."
