ok time for a headcount - who here has experience with live broadcast or otherwise television production?

I used to be a producer for a morning show at KPLC. Before that I was an editor for the same show. We broadcast live five days a week and when I quit I was producing before and during a two and a half hour broadcast.

I directed local news for 2 decades.

My advice is to not watch local news.

I love that this suggests he just walked up the arena right on time. Like when Hangman rode his horse through the city and into the arena or whatever.

i hope the wwe universe does not turn on cody that would not be good

I mean I like cody but his physical inability to not mention dusty in every single promo has always been weird

time to start a new story that doesn't involve daddy issues

I'm not really paying attention to the crowd sizes on AEW but I do notice the crowd just sitting motionlessly while they pipe in cheering and poo poo in a lot of the WWE clips that get posted here. So I guess I can understand how little things like that can take you out of the moment.

For the most part, but they also let some of them ad lib pretty heavily now. Cody's one of those guys who gets a lot of freedom with his promos.

I noticed that while watching AEW too. I think it happens during matches nobody is excited for.

cody sticking too close to the same promo every time is what made people tire of his schtick in aew and hopefully he can change it up this time around and avoid that same fate

I enjoy watching him so I'm not rooting for history to repeat - I'm just like ok we've seen this promo for years what else have ya got

Cody needs to flip out and cut promos like he did when Husky Harris was eliminated from NXT.

His latest promo on Raw wasn't about Dusty, talked about that story being over, thanked Rollins and how much his friendship means to him, mocked the bloodline in disarray and Roman being absent, he said he was preparing for the Rock's eventual return, then a bromance segment with yeet where he offered his ringside help against judgement day. Yeet turned him down.

that's awesome then - I didn't get to see it yet so I appreciate the context and stand corrected

hopefully he can keep that going and deepen his character as it's going to be tough if he wants to continue always being completely a face with no gray area in his character

The last 2 episodes of raw have had pretty animated crowds. I'd say the only dead spot in the last raw was the 3rd match.

The tweet quoted in here mocking Cody promos was from a Roman stan account, deeply unserious
