I like Cody a lot still, but I want a Stone Cold babyface right now so badly. Someone who would've raised hell and attempted murder when Heyman denied the rematch request, instead of settling for a tag match. I wanted Cody to just come out pissed off and punch Solo in the face. Would've been soooooo much better

The Usos should've been thrown off the top of the arena. Heyman should've been locked inside a room with Kayla.

Oh god, tonight was Cody getting "killed off" and in a few weeks, Stardust will re-debut to play "mind games" with Brock. The old man is well and truly back in his chair. Bray Wyatt just watched the main event, pouting the whole time

Someone who would've raised hell and attempted murder when Heyman denied the rematch request, instead of settling for a tag match. Hunter doesn't book strong babyfaces. His booking style is 80's NWA heel dominating wrestlers. Even his days when he was on the booking team or had influence as a active wrestler the fingerprints were all there. The REIGN of TERROR was innovated by Hunter. I don't believe this is entirely true. As we've seen by Bianca and the reign of Asuka in NXT, he will book strong women faces gladly (sometimes at a great detriment). But as for men, yeah that's basically true. Hell the climax of the first era of his/Dusty's NXT was the Sami Zayn run where he finally got his big win only for it to be undercut less than five minutes later by KO powerbombing him on the apron. That should have been the clear warning that no face men get true happiness.

Hey wait a minute. Why exactly did Brock turn on Cody? What was the storyline reason why? He beats Omos last night and is a big babyface. Then tonight he turns on Cody for no reason and completely out of the blue.

Roman and Gunther are all going to still continue on very long reigns due to records being broken. Hogan and Honky specifically.

Then tonight he turns on Cody for no reason and completely out of the blue. Isn’t Brock banned from fighting Reigns? It’s Cody’s fault he can’t have a title. (Ignore every other person who failed Lesnar over the last 8 years)

It's probably gonna be with Brock complaining he opened Mania with Omos instead of closing the show with Roman. And Cody didn't deserve it.

Some thread here back when Cody signed, it wasn’t his signing thread but like a bold prediction thread or some such, I said Cody Rhodes was Jeff Jarrett. A name yet an inconsequential signing of a mid card act. And he is.

Cowboy babyface Brock was a BLAST.

HHH - "Okay Cody, here's what we have in mind. We'll swerve everyone when you lose at 'Mania due to interference."
Cody - "But then I get revenge on Raw and force a rematch, right? We are paying homage to my dad's finish style, you know the famed Dusty Finish; reversing a big loss after a PPV during the next televised show."
HHH - "Not exactly, Brock will squash you the next night on Raw."
Cody - "I see, but I'll get revenge at the next PPV, right?"
HHH - "No, see Brock will then go on vacation until the end of summer."
Cody -"*******"

Happened in NWA, WCW, World Class... hell even during the Reign of Terror Triple H wasn't against looking like a goof in feuds. He may ultimately win the feuds but there was more hope around the heel losing.

The new thread title almost makes the onscreen idiocy worth it.
Once again the greatest joy from a disappointing WrestleMania is seeing how this forum dunks on it.
