probably not a gimmick, but grayson waller (the guy who took the horrific looking ladder bump) has his arm in sling on nxt 2.0. He's still in the tag gauntlet but the gimmick is he'll not tag in and his bodygaurd Sanga will wrestle the match for him

Re: Cody vs. Miz.

Aren't they close friends in real life?

I know Miz is friends with Matt Cardona and that crew of dorks. Cody is also a huge goofy dork, but in a different way, so maybe I am getting it mixed up that they are friends.

Wasn't Roxy trans, or was that Poison? I remember one of them was according to the game lore, but phobic fuckboys flipped their poo poo about which fake video game sprite they were 'allowed' to find attractive despite them literally being palette swaps with different hair.

I believe Poison is trans (design docs say "new-half" or something) in the Japanese version, but for the longest time cisgender for the US version. This might have changed. The US SNES version of Final Fight did remove her from game.

I believe the official line from the Street Fighter series producer nowadays is the other way around, she's trans in the North American translation but not in Japan? It's weird.

If you see him on basically anything other than the main show like any of the vlogs or ancillary podcasts Cody is goofy as gently caress and it’s great. (7 minutes if the timestamp doesn’t work)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g3ynDBDYejs&t=7m0s

He just seems to prefer huffing his own farts when it comes to the actual wrestling show.

i was looking up late 2021 fan reactions to Cody and I found this great quote where he compares himself to woody in toy story (in relation to boos and people like CM Punk coming in)

quote:

“Woody was having a hell of a time. He was having a great time. He was getting played with every day. He was the number one toy. Buzz Lightyear shows up, Woody gets thrown in the toy box. If you're wondering how I feel, take a peek at how Woody felt in the very first Toy Story because that, to a degree, has been my role lately.
