Live WWE WrestleMania Night Two Discussion Thread

Didn't watch, but semi-surprised with Cody losing. I think Roman reaching 1k days and losing to Jey might make it all worth it to conclude that story in the most fitting way, but also man it must be a gut punch for so many people for Cody to have about as near perfect a story leading up to Mania, be built so much, have so much hype, and lose. If there is that silver lining, I know Cody can be back. He will, but this is a heartbreaking hurdle. I'll be happy once Roman loses the belt just so that we can have new stories in the main event.

Cody about to challenge one more time with the stip he can never challenge again if he loses

Christ that looks gnarly

“I don’t wanna put myself over the boys”

and then he won't take his 3rd year option and go to Impact

 

[Comrade Khan]

for real though, imagine being built up for 2 years as the savior just to do the job. brutal

so did Cody actually win? Or did he get the former AEW treatment of taking that big L?

SMH - wish i hadn't been right about that one

 

[Comrade Khan]

remember when everyone who was upset Sami didn't win got told it's because it's Cody's moment at mania?

Pepperidge farms remembers.

Crazy that as I watched it go down I was perfectly fine with it and not deflated like when it was Roman/Drew even though I was adamant Cody should win the whole time.

At least I can see what I assume to be the plan is here. People were kind of annoyed that Cody came back at #30 and got an easy road to winning the belts without any failure or adversity, now he's got that.

There was something sweet about Solo costing him the belt aswell and it not being a straight up clean finish after Cody was taunting him for those few weeks about not being ready and taking his undefeated streak in their match on Raw.

Colour me intrigued.

Cody had to become a WWE loser - before he becomes a WWE winner. basic brand protection. It just not guaranteed he will get the belt at all.

I don't think it's an overreaction, just objectively terrible booking and trolling your audience. You love Roman so I assume it's nbd to you but bro its been TEN YEARS of the same shit
