The botch came in for plenty of criticism from pro wrestlers and fans all around the world. Independent wrestler Arik Cannon has now taken to Twitter and claimed that he was trying to protect Rhodes by intentionally botching his punches.
Arik Cannon claims responsibility for botching punches on Dynamite
Indie veteran Arik Cannon claimed that he was the man under the mask who botched the punches on Dustin Rhodes on AEW Dynamite. Rhodes had initially tweeted out his criticism of Cannon, saying that he was embarrassed to see the botch.
However, following Cannon's actions, Rhodes deleted his own tweet and put out the following:

I deleted that tweet because he has come forward. Thanks. Work on your frickin punches. There are always going to be those out there that try and bring others down. When you see people exposing our business, call em out. 🖤❤️🤘🏼
The Dark Order could very well be set for a feud with The Elite, considering what happened on last week's episode of Dynamite. It remains to be seen how Omega, The Young Bucks, Dustin Rhodes, and co. respond to The Dark Order's attack this coming Wednesday.
