SmackDown Live Live SmackDown Discussion thread, March 7th 2025: Cody Rhodes returns to SmackDown after John Cena's vicious betrayal

[Shane]

I think a good story is showing that selling out doesn't actually work personally lol

I’m sorry but I totally disagree lmao

 

[Ricky Smarks]

that's fine with me as I would get to see Cena win the Worlds Championship live

I’m personally against Cena winning a 17th world title at all but since I’m the only person that seems to think 17 titles for this dude is ridiculous I will make a compromise and I will be less negative about it if he at least puts over Cody first.

My fantasy booking since the turn has been Rock helps Cena win by stacking the odds in his favor. Because if Cena sells out and still loses...then what? If you turn him back it kinda ruins it to me. He can then feud with faces over the title for a but. Do this thing. Cody eventually gets a rematch after clawing his way back. Wins the title back. Even with Rock out there trying to fuck on him. As Cody is walking to the back. Rock attacks Cena, Cody sees it on the screen....Cody runs back down, saves Cena. They shake hands and Cena is back good.

so Cody is The Rock to Cena's Hulk Hogan at WMX8. I don't mind it at all.

cause you'd sell out for a 2% raise

He’s already won 16. What’s one more lol

 

[Ricky Smarks]

And that was ass lmao

I mean, because Shawn made a mockery of it because he didn’t like putting over Hogan but the match with Cody shouldn’t be affected by when he turns back babyface. You either enjoy the ride there or you don’t.

Well this year I got 40% so

 

[Chris]

I'd rather Cena have the fake record than Flair at this point so I'm fine with him winning 17 however but when they do it my way everyone will agree it was amazing

You clearly don’t remember how much I pitched a fit when he won the 16th lol

Just because I already hate how many he has doesn’t mean I want to see it get added to.

Maybe if he was winning before that I could see it. Idk. He knows he ain't as good as he come was, and can't win anything on his own(even took advantage of a situation at the chamber).

If he loses I won't be mad or anything so it can happen. As I've said since the start before the turn, I try to think what I feel is the best story which I think we all do. So I respect your vision.

yeah I agree that's why he sold out, that's a great story. The sell out shouldn't win in 2025 at the biggest show of the year to break a record that will never be broken again tho lol crazy message to send, suck Rock's dick and you get everything
