Are We Finishing the Story? The Cody/Rock/Roman Megathread

[Smart Marx]

what should I be "copium" about?

I assume he means that Cody is most definitely winning at 40.

I assume he means that Cody is most definitely winning at 40.

Putting snark aside I don't see how so many think this is a foregone conclusion

Business is still really good with roman as champion, there is still juice in the bloodline storyline, for fucks sake he sold a shit ton of merch tonight despite not being in perth

wwe cares more about breaking records than they do about sentimental moments

There is a hogan record to break in 200+ plus days

You don't know what's going to happen, hhh isn't flying you guys into philly to book the show

Plus there is no copium for me as i won't be watching lol, however if I hear that he losses again, not only will I rejoice, I will also enjoy throwing shade back at his "copium" fanbase while they send more death threats online

If he does win its not a loss either as im not watching lol,

He can stink up the joint and finally he will be exposed in the deep waters and he will sink or swim

And judging by his promo on ec tonight, I strongly predict he will sink

I distinctly remember it was just 20 pages of you, Jeff, and I think Sky just fucking dogpiling on it lmao

I was pretty vocal that night too

First thing I’m gonna do is tell you that absolutely nobody outside of WWE cares about this whatsoever. If you fail to create your next top star, because you want to break some record on Wikipedia, you do not deserve to not run any business.

Secondly, he’s actually like 1200 days away from breaking the record. The only title he’s held for that 1500 days is the universal championship. He didn’t win the WWE championship that is the belt which Hogan actually held until last wrestlemania.

The great thing about the bloodline is it doesn’t need the title to tell these stories. The title portion of the bloodline angles have been told to death, quite honestly. Post losing the title will bring a new freshness to the bloodline.

I get that, but the point is wwe cares, and them caring about it might just be enough for roman to retain

Actually it does, the storyline works because he has this aura about him, being the head of the table, it gives him bragging rights over his family

His entire character revolves around the title

That all goes away if he gets dethroned,

Lastly, feel free to do whatever you wish if Cody were to lose, but you Rock fans need to stop propping up the 5 people who sent death threats like they represent the 800K to a million fans that just wanted to support the support the superstar they like and didn’t do any such nonsense.

I doubt they care more about a statistic than they do about creating a potential new draw to make the money.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

I'm gonna be blunt, people that continually talk about Roman chasing some dumbass "record" are fucking stupid and I honest to god don't think they really want Roman to get to Hogan, they just want the status quo because they're either A.) afraid of change, or B.) want to complain about anything and everything.



Steve Austin and The Rock never held the title for longer than a year. So the guy continually bitching about missing the attitude era while at the same time wanting Roman to get past Hogan is fuckin' confounding as shit lmfao

I don't think all his fans are that unhinged, your a prime example of a sane rational fan,

But I saw a lot of insane shit online from his fansa few weeks ago, not only death threats,

But also wishing psychical harm on rock and cancer on roman,

And there was way more than 5 ppl saying shit like that

It doesn't take many bad apples to spoil the bunch

This aura you speak of is diminishing greatly because everybody knows how a bloodline title match is going to go. Roman’s about to be beat solo shows up in a hoodie and spikes the guy in the throat. I’m sorry, but almost nobody wants to see this four-year title reign continue to five. It’s reached its natural conclusion.

Now being the head of the table, it’s a completely separate thing all entirely together, which I can always guarantee you rock ‘n’ reigns are still going to feud over after he drops the belt.

I can promise you at the high end it wouldn’t be anymore than %2 of the overall and I can also promise this is how all fandom works. No one is looking for it, but I bet you could find a ton of Rock and Roman fans talking massive shit about Cody’s health too. Whenever you have a FANDOM, they’re always fanatics.

 

[Dustin001]

I doubt they care more about a statistic than they do about creating a potential new draw to make the money.

I strongly disagree, they care very much, and they already make a shit ton of $$$$ with roman as champion, in business, if it ain't broke don't fix it

There is no guarantee that cody will be this huge draw as champion

Strong baby faces don't stay over once the chase is over

Lol talk about copium, I get it that you guys don't care about records, but the point is wwe does

For fucks sake they had cody lose last year to roman so he could get to 1k days as champion


And you really think they will pass up the opportunities to break more records?

If you believe that i got a bridge in seattle to sell you lol

I strongly disagree with that, but I admit im biased as I still love the bloodline storyline and don't want it to end
