Booker of the Year huh. What a fucking joke

It was so easy not to fuck this up, too.

Cody looked gutted right before that hug with Rock

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I feel like the fact that almost everyone in here agrees this was all-around a shit decision shows how stupid it really was. Cody finishing his story was the most organic collective agreement in a decade.

It’s painful to watch. You can tell he fought back tears when he heard this plan and didn’t want to come out.

I think even Dwayne's like "I know..." Like a mixed feeling from him too

I mean hell, I went from “Cody ruined Christmas.” To “Finish the Fucking Story.”

Oh in AEW he just booked himself into a corner and ended up hurting him long term. But WWE he got a Fresh start and has (well HAD I guess) upward mobility. Being able to progress. Just let the poor man finish his story.

These morons even ruined the Brock rub they gave Cody that can never be duplicated again.

This gotta be a swerve. Praying it’s a swerve.

Rock says “I can challenge for the Head of the Table any time. But you only get one shot to finish this story”

Which wouldn’t even be fuckin true since it would be his second chance but fuck it’s better than this

Well we all know Rock doesn’t know what a once in a life time opportunity even means.

I’m trying to hold out hope and have faith because I was so excited to be a WWE fan again. Please don’t take that away from me. 5 years was a long time. I’d like to come home.

That’s what bothers me than anything. The first match bumping the champion out of the main event was one thing, but having Rock actually take Punk’s title to steal his second main event when you already did the match the year before was unforgivable.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Not sure what this was, but I think WWE already scrubbed it.

 

[Rosie]

WWE's going for the short term money, but hurting them longer term.
