I went with Sami on this one. But Cody is a great choice as well.

 

[Chris]

Very very close but I'm gonna go Cody with the deal breaker being this recent peak, it would have been Sami until a year or two ago

 

[Cwalker]

Before Cody’s meteoric rise 2 years ago, this wouldn’t have been close imo.

Right now I’m leaning Sami but I could see it going either way

It's weird for me tbh, I give Cody a lot of credit for AEW so there's a point in like 2019 and 2020 I'd have maybe said him ober Sami too but then Sami gets so much credit for the Bloodline being what it is today that it surpassed Cody for a time until more recently.

Prior to AEW it's easily Sami tho yeah

 

[Keith]

This one is closer, but will go Cody.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Cody for me but I really enjoy watching Sami he's become in the last few years so damn good. Gonna be close I think this one.

 

[OMB]

Going Sami, Cody had sometime where he was very meh

Helluva result with this one...

#23 Sami Zayn beats #34 Cody Rhodes with 12 - 8

Holy Shizznet. Didn't expect this result. Looking forward to the next round looch.

 

[Samoa Looch]

Me neither tbh. If Sami wouldn't have had those last two years he had, I think Cody would've smoked him easily.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. After wargames he was asked about this. Finally Sami getting all the credit he deserves as he's always been that good and with the change in regards of hunters booking, he's getting a good run. Which was way overdue. I think he's better than K.O tbh as well.
