Tbh I think the way they've handled Cody intermingling in the story since the Rumble has been nothing short of genius but I know that's not exactly a popular opinion on here lol so many little things done exactly right that kept Cody as a hot challenger and didn't get in the way of anything Sami has done

this I agree with BUT. I still dont love Cody making other stories about himself, but thats also more of a ptsd thing lmao

And holding off on pulling the trigger with KO and Sami longer than I expected made jt so much better

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I still think they are walking a fine line, but again, im not the target audience

 

[Canadian Dragon]

but I am in agreeance mostly with Chris that they have done most things right with that story

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and theyve managed to keep ppl engaged and excited which is a big win

tbh I could write a whole essay on why i disagree with this bc I've seen it everywhere the last month but long story short, it actually makes so much sense to me, probably with a lot of head canon but still. Basically it's Cody realizing he can't beat the Bloodline himself (bc facing Roman is never only facing roman) do facilitating KO and Sami to make sure they're on the same page to give him the actual one on one match...chefs kiss

 

[Chris]

But for all I know the intent is just to make Cody look good bc he likes the same people you like (KO and Sami) and that's way less cool lol

 

[Chris]

But Cody's promos towards them just feel almost manipulative to get what he wants, but like not even in a heel way, more out of necessity bc he knows he needs it

I love over complicating wrestling storylines and giving everything a super huge meaning rather than "this wrestler said this, the other wrestler had an affair with his mom"

I'm so good at it lol

 

[Canadian Dragon]

thats an interesting kayfabe explanation chris i dont mind it

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and yeah I am sure you see where I am coming from with my worries too since...you also watched AEW lol

 

[Chris]

The only thing I thought was too much was Cody watching along like a proud papa when they hugged but that was 5 seconds of an amazing segment so I can't even trash it, it was just funny more than anything

 

[Canadian Dragon]

hence why i prefaced with saying some of my feelings are fueled by ptsd lol

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and yeah I mean, I will always be ''that guy'' that doesn't like stuff shoved down his throat so Cody is always a hard sell on certain types of promos he cuts
