WWE: WWE TV - Raw & Smackdown Part 3

[hockey20000]

I am bit intrigued by Cody vs Rollins. Well just the match result. I figure Cody has to win but then, I think that really hurts Rollins losing to Cody 4-5 times in 2 years. I hope it doesn't lead to another heel turn for Rollins.

probs have priest cash in before either wins the match and walk out with the title may as well at this point wrestlemania has become a joke this year thanks to tko anyway

since winning the Rumble gets you in the main event at WM, the simple solution is to just have Cody go as Bayley's manager

Busted open made a compelling case for cody/Seth, but more from Seth's side...him stating he HAS to beat Cody because it has eaten him alive that he hasn't and can't...

Even Summer Rae thinks the Cody/Rock/Roman deal doesn't make sense

Ex-WWE Star Calls Out Company For Undermining Cody Rhodes' Royal Rumble Win on 2/2 SmackDown

The Rock and Roman Reigns were always supposed to square off against each other, but fans feared the worst it was going to be at WrestleMania 40. After

It all comes full circle for Rollins if priest does that.

Might be leading to Seth taking time off

What I don't get is this clearly was the plan as of last Monday when Seth and Cody had that promo in the ring.

Rollins makes a very compelling case as to why Rhodes should face him at 'Mania.

Why not just have Rhodes accept right there? Would of made a heck of a lot more sense and everyone would of came across stronger.

Instead now your No.1 babyface looks weak stepping aside for The Rock. A guy they've spent years building up steps aside for a part-timer in his 50s.

Your WH Championship now comes across as a lesser title. They've spent nearly a year building up Rollins and a brand new title, and then let Roman crap all over it and the champion. They aren't facing each other anytime soon I don't think so why hurt what they've spent time building. If Cody had accepted on Raw then Roman has no reason to even mention Rollins.

Meanwhile, now there is negative sentiment towards The Rock because he's literally taking Cody spot in the fans eyes, even though it wasn't clear if Cody gave up his WM title match opportunity or can he just challenge Rollins instead now for the WH title.

And storyline wise I know they didn't make the match official but why does Roman have to face Rock again? Did Rock earn a title match? Could Roman just tell Rock to go crawl back to Hollywood because he's got no reason to face a guy who hasn't wrestled in over a decade for the belt?

Just poor execution all around that didn't do anybody any favors. Roman is the only one who benefitted as he cut a pretty decent promo crapping on Seth with a couple pretty funny lines.

A good way to put that title on equal footing would be for the rumble winner to pick you, which is what would’ve happened if Punk won.

the hell is this? on a Thursday?

Looks like a promo show, no wrestling.

 

[Fro]

I found the placement of ppl interesting

 

[sansabri]

Becky gonna get Nia

 

[Jussi]

Curious what this means for the men's Elimination Chamber match. The assumption was with out Punk's injury that either he or Cody was going ot win it. Will they actually have Cody enter it and win that too? Make The Rock vs Roman a triple threat and wrestle on both nights?

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Idea: hype Rock/Reigns contract signing at EC. Rock plants Reigns with rock bottom. Out comes Priest to win. Cody/Priest at Mania (won’t happen but work with me, here)

Edit… sorry, should have read more of the thread. Looks like that was suggested

 

[Jussi]

Becky gonna get Nia

That's another story that hasn't been completed. There was never a payoff for the punch because Nia got released. Makes sense.

Idea: hype Rock/Reigns contract signing at EC. Rock plants Reigns with rock bottom. Out comes Priest to win. Cody/Priest at Mania (won’t happen but work with me, here)

I like my idea better.

 

[Habsfan18]

I guess Cody “finishing his story” involves beating a guy he already did x3 for WWE’s B title! And that guy is less than 100% too!

Great storytelling!

What a f***ing joke. Build this guy into a mega babyface for 2 years only to completely ruin any momentum he had for a guy who has wrestled like 3 times in the past 25 years.

Maybe The Undertaker and Goldberg can come back and face Rollins and Gunther!

PWI report that with Rock on the board he might be trying to pull a Black Adam and take over booking control of WWE.

Yeah I posted about it above...seems like whats happening

 

[Danarqhy]

so wwe has done it again. maybe there's something that im not getting but lets recap the events here:

- cody wins his second rumble in a row with a big emphasis on "finishing his story". it's all we hear before the rumble
- he finally wins the rumble, being only the third person in history to win consecutive royal rumbles, he looks towards roman's booth, roman gets visibly worked up, looks like a very obvious match
- on raw a broken back seth rollins who its been rumored might not even make it to mania makes a plea for cody to fight for his title because it's the "real" title, even though it was literally introduced just last year because roman beat everybody (i believe including seth too)
-roman brings up these points on smackdown, tells cody that he can go for seth's "very #2 at best belt" or come for the real belt, the one he has
-cody reiterates this to roman, saying his was the belt of bruno sammartino, etc... his dad even held it once but it was snatched away from him
-all good points
-so then what the f*** does he do?
-he says you know what, all of those are great points BUT.... here's the rock, i'm out of here. peace... literally. not even an explanation.

like how does this make any sense?? they are booking cody like biggest simp cuck bitch of all time. why in the hell do you fight so hard to finish the story, only to give it all away like a bitch to the rock who doesn't even wrestle anymore?

 

[sansabri]

Dwayne's booking would suck if we go by his picks in movies

Maybe there isn’t one. Or it’s for Seth’s title and they just have to protect him.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Have Roman drop to Priest. Balor wine EC

Rock/Roman
Cody/Rollins
Priest/Balor - Mega Powers Explode II

 

[sansabri]

Cody said he's getting Roman's belt... just not at WM 40

 

[GKJ]

Have they decided where SummerSlam is and on what date?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Have they decided where SummerSlam is and on what date?

Not yet.

Also apparently one idea being tossed around is to do Cody vs Roman then and unify the belts
