Well WWE does love chickenshit heels and there's nothing more chickenshit than what Cody did.

Well maybe crying like a baby when a fat juggalo menaces you in Virtual Boy lighting. But it's neck and neck.

You were never getting any kind of “either Dwayne or Reigns have a match on both nights” for many reasons. The main ones being “Dwayne’s last real match had him tear everything and that was 11 years ago”, “Dwayne got gassed doing thirty seconds with Jinder last month, he’s not doing two half hour matches in 48 hours”, and “Reigns had 7 TV matches all last year, he’s not doing 2 of this year’s 7 in 48 hours”

Cody: Hello?
Dwayne: Yes?
Cody: Is, uh, Hunter there?
Dwayne: Not in the sense that you mean. You need to come see me.
Cody: Who is this?
Dwayne: You know who it is. You need to talk to me.
Cody: I don't need to talk to you.
Dwayne: I think you do. Do you know where I'm main eventing?
Cody: Why would I care where you're main eventing?
Dwayne: I know where you are.
Cody: Yeah? Where am I?
Dwayne: You're in the midcard feuding with Seth, but that's not where I'm going. Do you know where I'm main eventing?
Cody: Yeah, I know where you're main eventing.
Dwayne: Alright.
Cody: You know you won't go over.
Dwayne: It doesn't make any difference who goes over.
Cody: So what are you main eventing for?
Dwayne: You know how this is going to turn out, don't you?
Cody: Nope.
Dwayne: I think you do. So this is what I'll offer — you bring me into the ring and I'll let Roman go. Otherwise he's jobbed out, same as you. That's the best deal you're gonna get. I won't tell you you can save your story, because you can't.

Comparing the WrestleMania main event stuff with ten years ago is fascinating to me. They're two very similar situations with one being more blatantly stupid than the other.

As lame as the Bryan/Batista stuff was, at least they tried to tell a story that made some sense. Bryan wasn't in the Rumble because Triple H didn't want him in it. Batista won and therefore earned a title shot against Orton. The Cody situation is more like if Bryan actually did win the Rumble, but afterwards decided to just let Batista take care of Orton instead.

Ten years apart, Punk getting injured in the Royal Rumble caused WrestleMania's main event to become chaotic.

It's like goldy or bronzy, but made of iron.


Hey, remember back in 2010 when Low Ki won a shot for any title by winning the second season of NXT, and cashed it in on an intercontinental title shot against Dolph Ziggler and lost in less than ten minutes?

The saddest reaction to all this is when I see people angrily canceling their Peacock subscription and vowing to never support WWE again.

Like finding out the former head of the company and probably a lot of it's executive structure where doing gang rapes and sex trafficking in the company headquarters for 40 years wasn't the straw that broke the camels back, it was a dumb booking decision. It literally didn't matter what horrific crimes were going on as long as the booking was good.

It's reminding me of the Mania 162000 main event, which pretty much changed on a seemingly weekly basis after the Rumble that year.

I'm surprised the Fedbrained can even differentiate between good and bad booking considering they're watching WWE.
