I think you’ll find that was Team Rhodes Scholars because everything had to be Team for a while

Cody's greatest strength is he takes sicko bumps like that cutter from sammy from the top of the ladder. Or that time he tried to put andrade through a flaming table but andrade missed the table and he put himself directly into the fire.

Cody’s disaster kick is such a poor imitation of Low Ki’s tidal wave attack. No height, no distance, no speed, no impact. He looks afraid to jump off the ropes.

Moonsault from that big rear end cage is what got me to watch Dynamite

faceplanting on the entrance ramp with a huge gash on his forehead was impressive too

If we're going to extrapolate, we should extrapolate from this one Instagram post that Cody's dog, Shithead, has signed a brand deal.

I thought the preview on WWE.com would have more matches listed, but they don't even have the Punk seg listed. Anything can happen in the world wrestling federation, I suppose.

There'll probably be matches for draft picks, if that's still a thing they do

E: while there, I did find out they are doing an NXT special from the UFC Performance Center, which is sorta funny.

RULES OF THE DRAFT

Champions on each brand will be protected and are not eligible to be drafted. As a result, Damian Priest, Becky Lynch, Awesome Truth and Sami Zayn will remain on Raw. Cody Rhodes, Bayley, A-Town Down Under and Logan Paul will remain on SmackDown.

Even though their status as champions allows them to go to both brands, WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Asuka and Kairi Sane are eligible to be drafted. They will be assigned to that brand if they lose the titles.

Monday’s Raw will feature six rounds of draft picks being announced. Each round will consist of the brands making two picks apiece for a total of 24 picks (12 for Raw and 12 for SmackDown).

Raw will have first pick on Monday.

Rosters will go into effect on Monday, May 6, two days after Backlash France.

Imagine if the NFL draft took place during actual games. I get that wrestling doesn't have an offseason, but crowding out pretty much everything else for a week of their programming seems bad to me.

And they could’ve easily fixed that by him saying “and if you don’t like that, go complain to my cousin The Rock” to simply explain why WWE wouldn’t do anything

There was no drama to be had. Roman was canonically too strong and powerful and cool and no one could beat him so there was no point in him wrestling or even appearing.
