Is the chicken catching on outside of these forums? If it is then it could haunt Cody for quit some time.

I could see nxt being transformed due to this. I doubt it gets eliminated altogether though. Wrestlenomics estimates their tv deal is $30 million, and there’s no way that covers the costs of a live tv show, the PC and all the talent. There’s no other significant source of income for the brand either. I expect it will be probably lean into the reality show aspects and become some sort of hybrid of Tough Enough and nxt season 1 with a small roster that changes every 6-12 months.

Lamuella posted:In theory a draft is a great opportunity for storytelling, but it needs the following: I agree with this but I would have both brands draft from nxt. Give each brand maybe 5 picks or something. You could also add trades to the show to shake up the existing roster.

I asked chatgpt to write a Cody Rhodes promo about losing a big match and getting hit with a rubber chicken: “Last night, I stepped into that ring with fire in my eyes, ready to take on anyone and anything that came my way. But the truth is, things didn't quite go according to plan. I lost that big match, and I'll be the first to admit that it stings. It hurts to have come so far, to have put in so much work, and to have fallen short. But you know what hurts even more? Getting hit with a rubber chicken. Yeah, you heard me right. I was down and out, trying to catch my breath, when out of nowhere, someone smacks me with a rubber chicken. And in that moment, I felt like a complete chicken myself. I mean, think about it. I'm Cody freakin' Rhodes, a legend in this business, and I just got taken down by a rubber chicken. It's embarrassing, it's humiliating, and it's downright ridiculous. But you know what? I'm not going to let this defeat or this ridiculousness define me. I'm not going to let a rubber chicken get the best of me. I'm going to rise above it, I'm going to come back stronger, and I'm going to show the world what I'm really made of. Because that's what true champions do. They don't let one loss or one silly incident define them. They pick themselves up, dust themselves off, and they come back stronger than ever. So to whoever hit me with that rubber chicken, I've got a message for you. You may have taken me down for a moment, but you haven't defeated me. I'm going to rise above this, and when I do, you better watch out, because I'll be coming for you with everything I've got. So bring on the competition, bring on the challenges, and bring on the rubber chickens. Because no matter what comes my way, I'm ready to face it head on, and I'm ready to come out on top."

Astro7x posted:So the WHC, which is supposed to be the Raw title, is in a tournament with Smackdown people? So if a SD person wins does the title stay exclusive to Smackdown? It’s so dumb, and it’s not even designed to get anyone new over. It’s just the same established upper midcard and main event guys. Looking at the Raw roster, there are 8 former world champs. They could do a 16 man tournament and the opening round could have former champs against people who have never held the title before. This way they could build some new stars either by having someone go far or someone taking a former champ to the limit. Here’s a tournament that reinforces the brand split and could potentially have some good matches: Kevin Owens Vs Gunther The Miz Vs Shinsuke Nakamura Braun Strowman Vs Bronson Reed Seth Rollins vs Johnny Gargano Jinder Mahal Vs odyssey Jones* Finn Balor Vs Sami Zayn Kofi Kingston Vs Damian Priest Drew McIntyre Vs Cody Rhodes *I have no clue if this guy is any good, but he’s a new face and you have to start pushing new guys eventually

I read the show recap on f4wonline. The new world title match was literally the opener, just in case anyone thought they were going to treat it as equal to Roman’s titles. Also, Cody has a metal arm now so he really is Luger 2.0.

They should have wrestlers from the main roster act as player coaches on nxt, especially if they don’t fit into ongoing plans. But I don’t think a guy who has never had a great match or great promo should be in this role.
