@pmac206 Ай бұрын

To me it would be so anticlimactic to have him lose it to Cody of all people . I’m probably biased against Cody though, because I find the guy completely completely dull and unentertaning . The way he talks with that slow ridiculous pace that makes him always sound sarcastic. Oh my God it’s so painful to listen to.

@peluminova2515 Ай бұрын

Most don't understand the value of what they've got, until they lose it. Once Roman inevitably leaves and goes to be an even hotter star in Hollywood there'd be a big vacuum in WWE That's one of the reasons they're building this storylines and bigging Cody up so that vacuum won't be felt as much.

@@pmac206 I like Cody I have since his Dashing Cody Rhodes gimmick but I think since he left the first time he has been trying to emulate his dad in his own weird way just without Dusty’s charisma.

@excaliburxv7529 Ай бұрын

It's crazy people think that Roman is the one putting people over when in reality, most of the fans that have returned and became reinvested into the WWE because of these returning superstars. The emergence of the non pg promos and Cody's finish the story bit. Cody has been tearing up the wrestling world outside the WWE since he left and returning to the WWE was him bringing all that kingdom he build to the scenes here. Roman before Cody, before Lesnar, before Jey and Jimmy even Heyman is nothing. He was a spectacle in the ring but he is far from his prime and more a gimmick now. There is no validity to his reign apart from maybe the first year when most fans weren't watching. He's just blown up because he has all of these factors around him and is basically in the driving seat because the WWE has him there. So call dude what you want, Tribal chief, big dog, face of the company, it doesnt matter, He's not the guy anymore, there's a bigger better superstar that needs no helping hand with anything so his reign is over.
