Your reaction if Roman retains vs Cody.

[Cwalker]

I legit get the feeling that Sami is gonna win the titles only for Roman to win them back and lose to Cody later.

That would be pointless

 

[Cwalker]

I imagine AEW fans would be rolling on the floor laughing

Probably but that side of the fence is no stranger to questionable booking

 

[CakeWalker]

this isn't how you spell Brock Lesnar

 

[Draevyn]

As much as I want Cody to win, obviously, I have been drafting up a Fantasy "BetheBooker" scenario where Roman wins and there is definitely a story to be told there. I absolutely do not think they're going to do it, but there is a way to do it and make it work in my eyes.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

It’s so close to 1000 days I wouldn’t be shocked if it happens

 

[Y2Jayne]

I have never cared more about the Bloodline and Reigns than I have in the last 5 months, I love Cody but I wouldn't be mad if he lost.

name me one promotion that isn't...I'd still argue AEW booking has not hit anywhere near the booking lows of WWE or old TNA or old WCW

 

[Sabretooth]

I wouldn’t be super mad because Roman has been good as gold imo. Cody would still have plenty of time to get redemption. Do I think it’s the right decision? Not really but also not horrible either. As Jeff said I’d just lol at everyone having a stroke.

I will be real, I think the story is better if Cody loses and has to actually earn the spot instead of beating seth 3 times, going away and entering at 30 basically being handed the keys without doing any of the work. I am in the minority, but as good as Cody is in the ring and on the mic, his story feels extremely forced down my throat and not organic at all, its all very forced to me and it lacks any nuance

Got to disagree and Cody winning the rumble was perfect choice though should of flipped the results of Cody at #1 and Rhea at #30. I think the problem just lies in how white hot Sami is right now. I think what your going to see at Elimination Chamber is a hard fought match between Sami/Reigns and it will look like Sami gonna win Jey gonna turn on him, the night though will end with KO return and the crowd will see the two hug to end the show. Then of course they will eye the tag titles and go from there. This story for Sami anyway has always been more about Sami/Jey then Sami/Roman. I mean besides people been clamoring for years for Sami & Kevin tag titles run. You could run it at mania that bloodline loses all the gold. Roman next night talks about it, talking about getting title back and we hear... it....



You set up Roman vs. Rock for Summerslam.

 

[Daddy Deville]

Or of course could set up Rock, Sami, KO & Cody vs. Roman, Solo & Usos at some event too maybe a War Games.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I never said Cody winning the rumble was bad tbh, just said going in at 30 is the easiest path. Its lame imo

 

[Draevyn]

Yeah, he 100% should not have gone 30th. I don't think he should have gone 1st either though as someone mentioned above because then it just would have been a lot of "waiting for Cody to win" vibes throughout the entire match.

 

[Sabretooth]

At least he went to war with Gunther which made his win seem more credible.

So imagine if Cody was #1 fought through everyone and awaited #30 as only man left in ring and Gunther music hit and cody the Ironman had to beat a fresh Gunther to win the rumble
