Can't wait for Cody to finish his story so he can return to the Farplane, and reunite with his old man, Jecht.

that said, would be the most russoiest and stupidest thing ever if Seth betrays Cody. A part of me is fully expecting this. That or Jey returns to the bloodline. Both would be terrible choices, but I can't deny the possibility. |

Sami and KO helped in the match last year, but Cody was still outnumbered. Cody basically needs 3 (Seth, Jey, Sami) to help neutralize the Bloodline (Solo, Jimmy, Rock) this year. Those crafty Samoans though. When one guy goes down or is neutralized and the person in the ring thinks they got the numbers down, another comes out of nowhere. Rikishi does have 1 other son (not sure how old or if they are Wrestling currently) and someone could put a call through to Manu & Deuce and there you go two more to add to the numbers even if it's just for a night. Tamina could also get involved with this, who knows. |

Jacob Fatu is a free agent… I feel like in other years, they might try and do something like that, but I think for better or worse this is going to wind up being a fan service year. I could see something the night after Mania though where Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu debut and help Solo and Jimmy beat the crap out of Roman while Rock becomes Bloodline Thanos. |

I could see something the night after Mania though where Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu debut and help Solo and Jimmy beat the crap out of Roman while Rock becomes Bloodline Thanos. That's the best way to handle Jacob Fatu & Tama Tonga's debuts. Bring them in as Rock's personal execution squad and have them publicly "execute" Roman for his failure to the family. |

They might go the "Cody has a bunch of heroes help him" route, but I could also see a "locker room empties to prevent Solo and Jimmy from physically getting to the ring" ending if they want to sell the idea that the entire roster is sick of this shit, sort of like how they did with a few points in the past. It also gives a ton of guys some camera time on a 'Mania, which would probably be a good morale thing on a 40th show like it is, anyhow, and sell the "Cody is the real People's Champ" thing some more.

I'd have to imagine if they do indeed go with the idea of Cody bringing an army then they'll have Orton as one of them. Kind of inclined to think they're going to do him vs. Solo at Mania.

That Rollins promo was exceptional, top notch stuff. He kept his boisterous over the top character but was grounded, honed in, focused and committed. Gauging the audience, all the while meaning every word his character intended towards Cody. Never seen Seth as masterful and as believable. Can’t wait for Alvarez to butcher it. |

The Busted Open guys today were nitpicking how he came to the ring as if nothing was wrong and I wanted to reach through my app and smack them. That's what I get for trying to give them a chance again. |

How insanely meta would it be if Cody beats Roman, but then it's reversed on a technicality? A Dusty finish, if ya weeeel.

Something I'm kind of wondering about that I think would be awful but would make sense from both the marketing and some of the associated rumors is if they do a bit where Reigns wins again then somehow a Seth & Cody / Reigns & Rock tag match breaks out and that's where Cody wins.

I can’t believe we got from where we were to where we are so fast.
Seth’s promo was absolute fire and he moved himself from a background bit part in all of this to an interesting key cog going forward.
I’m absolutely sold and cannot wait to see it play out … but for the love of all gods out there, STICK THE GODDAMN LANDING!!!

I like the idea of Roman’s shield bro Seth being a vital part of what takes Roman down. I think they made the right call having Roman retain last year. This year they have no excuses

What is Dustin's AEW contact situation? It would be really cool if he could show up, even as a one off, at Mania to be part of Cody's backup

This year they have no excuses I can’t believe I didn’t even consider this angle. Seth has always been presented as Roman’s kryptonite so it’s perfect that he’s involved in taking down the Tribal Chief. |

I wouldn't mind some overbooked clusterf#$%#% of a finale. Have the entire locker room fighting all over the arena. Like 90 minutes of the whole roster just having a full on civil war.
And R Truth is sitting there eating popcorn like "I'm so glad I gave up my membership in Judgement Day, all these fools are fighting like idiots over my old spot."
