Do we really need two full Cody entrances?

 

[Y2Jayne]

The Way all back together puts a smile on my face

Those crickets for Zoey... yikes. Hope she gets over with her ring work.

 

[Y2Jayne]

Damn Trish is 47 and in better shape than girls like Gigi or Bayley.

Those crickets for Zoey... yikes. Hope she gets over with her ring work.

It's a shame really... finally someone in the division of the main roster, who actually can throw believable punches and kicks which have true meat behind them, but she'll probably end up never getting the build and push she deserves, since in-ring ability is still too often more of an afterthought than the focus. Especially when it comes to character development and the "bigger picture" stories and builds.

...of course I hope I'm so wrong with this. Zoey should be pushed to the fuckin' moon with what she brings into the ring.

Cody better not end up winning MITB, with him cashing it in on Roman afterwards...

Cody better not end up winning MITB, with him cashing it in on Roman afterwards...

this would be one where if he does, he has to cash in in advance, no sneaky sneak

 

[Chris]

But I think he'll enter it, declare his intention to do that, and lose and then that'll be another "failure" until he wins the Rumble again at this point .

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Ngl a cash in by Cody would be kind of the perfect end to Roman's reign. Caught completely off guard, fucked over, and with the Bloodline falling apart rn, he'd lose his control. Maybe I'd book it, but I dunno.

 

[Chris]

I think it'd be okay for Roman's portion of the story and logically does make sense if say Cody makes sure Solo can't interfere prior but it would just be a flat way for Cody to win (I say this knowing the cash in pop would be huge but I digress). I'd only do it if they go the Daniel Bryan 2011 route of him going back on his word of doing an honorable cash in bc he wants to he champion now which led to a heel turn and again I don't think they want or should do heel Cody without seeing how top babyface champ Cody goes first
