The fear of Heyman cutting a promo and then hearing ‘IS THIS OPEN MIC NIGHT’ is gonna haunt me for the next month and a half.

Oh, same. I'd rather that not become a WWE staple. It's more that Brandi...isn't great. Or at least became less great when the focus on stuff was on her and not as a random cameo. I feel like she adds something to Cody in terms of entourage, but that's usually more when he's a heel, I don't think she's needed for this. I'd totally be cool with him celebrating with her and Liberty or something, and I'd even be fine with her smacking Heyman, but yeah, less is infinitely more for this. lmao Cody totally would name their dog Liberty. Brandi is not a great part of a face representation for Cody in any large capacity historically. Her coming out with him along with his entire entourage was one of those ridiculous things in AEW that fans put up with but that I don't think made him a more loved babyface. It felt more tolerated than loved during that time. She's a great person, but doesn't come across as a great person on TV a lot of the time for whatever reason and tends to play a heel better than a face. There's also this group who is just adamantly against giving her anything but utter vitriol and while I don't like letting people like that get their way, I think its for the best that she stays away from Cody on TV for the time being as I just don't see how she helps him. The story right now is he's doing this for his father, he can have another feud that focuses on his family life and involves them but I don't think this feud needs or even wants Brandi's involvement at this moment.

Pharaoh's their dog, Liberty's their daughter, but yeah, I don't think she should really be around right now in any big way, but I also don't think she wants to be. Like I think she did some interview recently suggesting she really does not miss the blowback one bit.

Hopefully this is a one-off for everyone's sake because Brandi being back in Cody's orbit means a lot more "let's be sexist to Brandi for heat that people cheer because oh god no what have we done" segments and nobody needs those.

Yea, I can do without another Jake/Brandi segment like they did in AEW with Jake trying be an ultra heel

Yea, I can do without another Jake/Brandi segment like they did in AEW with Jake trying be an ultra heel I can do without just about any of those segments that all went like Heel: You're a stripper and a bitch Audience: [cheering] Heel, realizing they need to be more despicable: You have sex with men for money and you're only with Cody because you're a gold digger, you don't even love him Audience: [cheering] Heel, sweating buckets, wondering how they can get booed here : Uhhhhh w-why don't you go back to the kitchen? Audience: A-E-DUB A-E-DUB A-E-DUB Genuinely a f***ing bleak time in wrestling fandom.

If Heyman really wants a shot at Brandi he needs to get a highly questionable giant shitty neck tattoo.

Yeah, I hated that excuse he was just getting good heat like nah that was above and beyond idiocy. He was way too close to her like he wanted to do the Randy Orton/HHH/Steph segment but it wasn’t done that same way

Thank God he didn’t bring up Pharaoh. I find it hilarious how Cody can just blow everything off and doesn't let anything can under his skin even if his wife or father are brought up. However if you bring up his dog that is a bridge too far. I am Cody.
And I want as many shots as it takes to erase the image of Paul Heyman boning from my memory You know what sucks is YOU know he’d have his patented evil smile on.

The thought of it is so ridiculous, which makes it even more hilarious 🤣 You don’t know, maybe Brandi scrolls through Fat World site and maybe that’s her thing. I mean if FAN had a fetish with Fat World for a bit why can’t Brandi?

It always stops me for a bit when I remember that Heyman has children, lol. Dunno why, just does. I needed to take a minute over him quickly going from talking about Peoria to saying THAT, heh His ex wife is pretty attractive as well

Cody sold Heyman saying that line like he crossed a line so far, like he couldn't believe the man he showed so much respect to and had so much reverence for even if he'd already made it personal last time crossed lines too far past what he said before. But I also like that the way he sold it leaves it to interpretation that Cody had a deep moment of fear thinking Heyman had a legit shot stealing his wife from him. Cody saw that flurry of offense Heyman threw at Owens Saturday. Any man would be cowed.

that... was not good
it also didn't shake my belief that Roman should defend 1 title against Cody on night 1 and Sami on night 2

Haha.
