Ideas on cody rhodes

[Schmidty]

Since they are not putting cody rhodes in the mitb match I have no idea on how he can make a push this year.
any ideas?

 

[Heisenberg]

Who says he isn't in the MITB match? I'm pretty sure there's still 3 or so vacant spots that will be determined in coming weeks as said on SmackDown. He'll most likely be added.

 

[Schmidty]

Christian and santino beat him and otunga to qualify so I was guessing that he wasnt gonna be in the mitb

 

[Blizzard]

Most likely, if he won't make it in the Money In The Bank match, he'll screw over Christian and continue their rivalry for the Intercontinental Championship. I hope he doesn't though, because he deserves to be in the match.

Cody will defo be in the match, either he'll injure someone and take their spot or he'll win a "last chance battle royal" or something. Not only am I sure he'll be in the match, I'm sure he'll win the briefcase and become WHC before the end of the year!

I'd honestly rather see Dolph win the briefcase over Cody, he seems more complete to me and I just don't know what it is but there's something about Cody that doesn't sit well with me.

A feud with Christian would be entertaining for sure, but doesn't benefit him in anyway not because Christian isn't credible or anything, but the best scenario for Cody is that he wins the belt but he's already done all he can with that belt recently.

I agree with what you've said there, but isn't the briefcase for building stars to be ready for the main event? In my eyes, Ziggler is already ready for the Main Event and doesn't NEED the MITB briefcase to get over more and use it as a prop. I really think Cody could benefit from it a lot more.

 

[Defiant]

I think its because Cody doesn't really have a gimmick anymore. He's the kind of guy who can take something as one dimensional as the Dashing gimmick and make it the most humourous/darkest thing going on. Now, Cody really has nothing. He's just generic cocky guy #5074 and I have no interest in him right now (nor does WWE apparently).

So no, I don't think he's ready for a MITB win. Hopefully he's in the match though.

Dude, Daniel Bryan was exactly the same, if not worse last year and he won. I'm kinda pissed with WWE, because Cody is a great worker, not the the most amazing in ring, but a really good mic worker and carriers himself well.

Personally I think Cody will do just fine. I think he's slated to win Money in the Bank, but if Dolph Ziggler is thrown in the WHC Money in the Bank, I'd give it to Ziggler since he needs it now more than ever. Cody is a talent in the WWE, but he's still very young, I like him in the IC hunt and making it relevant, and soon he'll be battling for the WHC, or even the WWE Championship since brands no longer matter in the WWE. As for Cody, I see him a champion at Survivor Series if he does not win MITB, latest is TLC. If Rhodes wins MITB, I'd say take the strap off Sheamus at Summerslam. He's gotten stale, and although Sheamus is a Number 4 babyface in the company, he needs a retool to make him interesting. At No Way Out, fans were rooting for Ziggler. That says alot about your World Heavyweight Champion who is a face. Back to the point about Rhodes, I wouldn't worry, I see him winning MITB, if he doesn't he'll be a big time player come Survivor Series.

Cody will be in the MITB. Christian pinned David Otunga in his qualifier, so Cody will complain that it's not fair that he lost his qualifying spot even though he didn't get beat, and he'll get another shot and win. He WILL win the case. It's been obvious since LAST YEARS MITB.

I still don't think he has "it", or Ziggler. They should really just give Damien Sandow the Del Rio push off the bat and roll with him as MITB winner, because he's the true diamond out of all these young guys, along with Ambrose who looks like he's being held off until Raw 1000. I don't want another mediocre Jack Swagger/Daniel Bryan-esque title reign, which is all you'll get out of those two. Not interested at all, SmackDown is bad enough.

I'd say he's on the cusp and ready to smash through the glass ceiling with the help of the MITB. He's right there, but he can't get that one on one victory over Sheamus to capture the belt and make him the man, thus winning the briefcase also ties in perfectly with current storylines.

Very valid point, but I would like to see stars built without the Money In The Bank if you get what I mean, like a rise to the top without the aid of anyone or any prop, you know really working for it. Either way, I'm happy with either Rhodes or Ziggler winning it.

Wait you want Idol Stevens to win the MITB? Lulz.
