When Jey, Kevin, and Sami get involved to stop the Bloodline from interfering :banderas:
Don’t forget Seth. He’s gonna architect the Shield around Cody. :cudi

You guys really think that they won't have roman beat hogan's record

Some of you are acting like y'all will be the ones booking the match

Last year should've taught you there is no guarantee that roman is losing anytime soon

I’m just banking on the idea that WWE aren’t run by absolute massive morons that actually want to prepare for the future, build up a new superstar and actually pay off three years worth of storylines instead of artificially blow up a record that can’t even actually be broken for three more years.

I mean is it more moronic to end a historic reign for a temporary feel good pop that won't mean shit in a month?

Or use this historic title reign to put over the next megastar of the wwe for the next decade plus?

I think the best guy to dethrone roman reigns is bron breaker

Having cody do it would be boring and predictable and fans will grow bored of his white meat babyface act in a month

Once he stops chasing and wins the story has "peaked" and it's all downhill from there

There's 0 way Roman is beating Hogan's record.

First of all because the title reign isn't even with the WWE Championship.

Second of all because that's a really dumb idea and Cody losing two years in a row is fucking stupid.

It’s not 1982 anymore. Nobody wants a champion for four years. And we’ve already gotten it. There’s nothing further Roman Reigns can do, except for artificially bump himself up on a Wikipedia record page.

And even then he’s already the longest reigning Universal Champion. He’s had that record for a year. His WWE Championship that people keep acting like he’s about to pass Hulk Hogan is about 900 days away. We ain’t keeping the belt on him until 2028.

Also, lol at it only a month. Cody Rhodes is currently the biggest most over superstar organically the WWE has seen in years. So organic then when fans thought that the rock was gonna take his place, they demanded that Cody be put back in. Wrestling promotions dream of an act being that over and putting him over would mean 1000 times more than just having a slightly longer stupid reign that’s already been too long. We’ve already seen it for four years.

True, but let's be honest. WWE doesn't give a shit which title it is and it's also not like WWE would never do something really, really stupid.

This would be break the record for how stupid you could stupid and I refuse to believe they are until they prove me wrong.

The funny thing is even WWE acknowledges it’s not the same. If you go on their own website and click on Roman’s WWE Championship it says 686 days. Any talk of passing records is smoke they blowup the television audience’s ass.

Who cares? It'd still be a massive moment for Cody Rhodes' career and if it's something all the fans want, why not give them what they want? Who cares if it's obvious?

This is the fucking same argument that was used by people who didn't want Kofi Kingston to win the WWE Title, and it's such a stupid argument lol

"Well if he wins, then his whole career has peaked, and it'll go downhill from there, the storytelling for him 'won't be as good'".

Miss me with that shit.

Yea, of course they acknowledge it there, because they know no one of their core audience would object to something like facts or stats :lol
