Doesn’t help that he has no chance of winning and he’s just a guy to make Cody look good in his first defenses. 🤷🏻♂️ There is zero reason to believe anyone stands a chance against Cody for at least six months and Roman already ploughed through most of the roster.

Haven’t seen him since Mania but that new music seems like such a crowd killer. That “They don’t want none” theme was goofy as hell but it was one of the better ones today.

Not that Cody shouldn't have a long reign, but has the era of long title reigns killed the intrigue of most title matches?

Honestly, I think it would be healthier for the roster for Cody to have a relatively shorter reign... I'm not saying drop it immediately but the champion being treated like they are miles above the rest of the roster is not great for storytelling and you know makes people only care about one person.

It's more of a function of how they book everyone else underneath the champion. Cody's first feud should be a hot one coming off an obnoxiously obvious build to his winning the title. Instead, it's just some guy who won a tournament, there's zero build. As talented as AJ is, Cody may as well be fighting the Brooklyn Brawler, because he's gonna win, no one thinks otherwise and Cody now has nothing meaningful to do. Everyone's just waiting on Punk v. Drew and what happens at Clash at the Castle.

A feud with a heel Orton could be entertaining, but even then I think Randy would also be "The Brooklyn Brawler." I guess we have to wait for the draft.

They're heating up Solo, but that appears to be for Roman when he returns. So, everyone's just gonna have to settle for matches Cody is obviously winning against the best possible opponents, which is what they're doing.

We need goofy jock heel AJ back!!!!!!! Ramp it up a few levels, make him the jerk dad at his kids' football games. Go one step further and have him cut vignettes where he's being a douche dad at his kids' sports games, but he also has a Playstation controller with him, like he's playing them playing the game, and when they strike out he gets all mad and yells "it's this DANG CONTROLLER!!" Goofy AJ and UpUpDownDown AJ morph into one.

Jock dorkass heel AJ would at least have some fun interactions with Cody. Imagine this guy trolling the little kids who love Cody: He could wear Dusty's watch as a headband.

"it's this dang controller" with variations of the buttons not working, the movement not working, the camera not working. He's the only dude who, no matter the controller he gets, it just won't work for him. The poor cursed man.

Yeah, SRS angery AJ is not working... the black on black tights are terrible and makes him look like he's wearing plain black tights... even just making the designs WHITE would make them pop. I'd rather he be doofy Jock AJ if they were going to make him heel. Hopefully now he’s done with LA Knight WWE will let him goof around a bit more since Knight was the reason he turned heel in the first place. I hope anyway.
