Reminds me of the dad from The Brak Show.

Golddust does kind of remind me of Brak sometimes.

I like how Cody has somewhat quietly had the matches of his life, every month, since Money in the Bank. He kills it every time, too.

Cody's been on a huge roll since Money in the Bank, although I wish he'd be able to get away from the tag team scene more often. But with Damien going tweener against ADR I doubt he'll get a chance to win the MITB briefcase in any epic ladder matches anytime soon.

You know what this show needs... A little more Cody.

But with Damien going tweener against ADR I doubt he'll get a chance to win the MITB briefcase in any epic ladder matches anytime soon. Cody's fine as he is. I think rubbing elbows with the likes of HHH will do more to put him over than a World Heavyweight Title run where he's isolated in a bubble and feuding with other upper mid carders will. Inb4 someone responds some kind of laughing gif/vid.

Cody is easily the best face in ring right now, he has more fire than Punk and more variety in his moveset than Bryan.

Inb4 someone responds some kind of laughing gif/vid. You also gotta remember that the Tag Belts do set up singles pushes. Look at red hot Austin in 97, he had a Tag run with HBK & then Dude Love. Which set up his IC run, (which, when he returned from injury) set up his run for the WWF Title. It looks like Cody may be receiving a push like this. Also, you see a lot of people complaining about the tag titles & division. Personally, I think the Tag Division has been a pretty stable division over the past two years. There haven't been many short reigns or any hot-shotting. That being said, I don't think the Rhodes are in for a long run as Tag Champs, but their high profile feud isn't going to make a short reign tarnish the belt. And I agree with the poster who said the WHC is the mark of death. The only chance for that belt to regain any significance is to have Cena win it & go on a long tear, or to merge it with the Intercontinental Title (& keep the IC name & lineage).

I think we'll remember 18 seconds as a defining moment of that title going down. It had definitely been devalued before that (Jock Swagger anyone?), but since then, it's been driven into the ground with extreme prejudice.

It had definitely been devalued before that (Jock Swagger anyone?), but since then, it's been driven into the ground with extreme prejudice. The problem is that the WHC is he fully solidified as the secondary title. It's the consolation prize for people who aren't ready or good enough for the WWE Title. But since WWE ruined the concept of an actual midcard, they need to pass the wrestlers they're high on off as "main eventers" to get them to be taken seriously even though it's obvious they're really not. I think what completely killed it was the Swagger, Del Rio, Ziggler program. At least before that point, you had "made" talents like Big Show, Orton, and Sheamus feuding over it as well. But at some point WWE phased the "stars" away from the belt under the misguided intentions of "giving newer talents a chance". But all that did was diminish the importance of the WHC further. That's the reason why many of us are now saying "Let Kofi, Cesaro, Fandango, etc. win the WHC, it's only the WHC." Right now Cena isn't getting the World Title to bring prestige back to it. They're giving him the belt because it keeps him out of the way of the main story and allows others to shine. They're acknowledging that it's a lesser title and that they're dialing Cena out of the spotlight. Giving Cody the World Title would be a step down at this point.

I like that on Raw he brought back the jacket that he wore during his mask days
