So if Cody was told on multiple occasions that he was working with Roman the week prior to the rumble, then this “plan” of dwayne’s to “save mania” was kept under wraps and Cody was blindsided with it. I said it before, and I know the money likely helps any bullshit that happens to him in the grand scheme, but Cody Rhodes is a bigger man than most to be told this shit, and then have THIS happen to him in the 11th hour A lot of people I feel like would reach a breaking point and torch this bridge and be completely within their right to do it.

Not sure if it was mentioned earlier in the thread, I saw Ava deleted her Twitter/X/whatever it's called account. Wrestling fans suck.

So Triple H didn't know about it but he did. Cody was completely blindsided but knew about it beforehand while also not knowing about it at all. It was all last minute but also agreed weeks ago. Did I get that right??

If Meltzer is wrong want they do go for Rock vs Roman, then he'll just claim the plan was changed anyway and he was right at the time. If they don't, is anybody going to give Meltzer credit? Or will they just say the plan was Rock-Roman and then they changed it because of the fan reaction. Let's face it. Whatever happens, nobody is changing their minds on this.

Maybe a 0.01% chance but does anyone else think Rock maybe understood this wouldn’t be popular? Maybe he came back to be a heel again? Maybe this is the start of him cutting some Hollywood Rock promos? What if this turns into a story about Roman, the longest running champ since Hogan, Rock, believing he’s bigger than everyone else in the business, and Cody, the people’s champion? Maybe Rock isn’t as clueless as we believe, maybe he’s a genius and going to put Cody over huge. Or maybe I’m crazy. Rock thought the hierarchy of power in the DC Universe was about to change. So no. He made a TV show set partially in the future where he was running for president.

If WWE wants to make summer slam almost like a second WM, why not just do the Cody v Roman at Mania then have Roman destroy the rest of his bloodline over the next couple months before Rock comes in, make it a headline main event, have Roman win and then whatever They keep on teasing the Hulk Hogan record, which would be passed officially on Sept 13th, 2024, which is a Friday Night Smackdown. So if Roman has it until then, I think he goes past Summerslam. I don’t remember the company ever teasing the Hulk Hogan “record” (it’s not a record).

Don't get me started on how much I hated those stupid flash forwards, by far the worst part of Young Rock for me (well. ok some of the wrestler casting is up there). Every episode they cut to Randall Park interviewing Rock in full "Mr. The Rock, your campaign seems to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?" mode filtered through the weakest NBC comedy filter. It was painful.

Apparently, the NXT crowd booed the Wrestlemania kickoff graphic when they showed it again and the crowd chanted “We Want Cody”.

Should Meltzer get any credit given that he's contradicted himself multiple times already?

The shift over about 48 hours from "The sweetest baby angel who ever lived HHH didn't know about Rock until AFTER the Rumble because the evil Rock secretly orchestrated all of this" to "Hahaha, what? Of COURSE HHH knew about it before the Rumble, this is all visionary brilliance how could you not realize that?" in the reporting seems to indicate that the HHH Street Team is also out there doing business. Strap in boys we are into some game of thrones shit Thursday will be the Red Press Conference.
