That little kid on the hard cam side with the stay with Jimmy sign must've been so happy

So I only passively follow stuff outside of WWE & AEW. So what's the contract status of the Anoia members outside WWE? There's GOD and Jacob Fatu. I know I'm missing others. What's the odds that we could see them show up? I've been running with Jacob Fatu and Solo as a team on WWE 2K23 & out of everyone in MLW he's the most impressive to me. So doing a quick search around, Samu’s son Lance is one half of the MLW tag champs with Fale school graduate Juicy Finau. Jacob is an interesting case where it feels like he’s one of the few talents Court Bauer is willing to spend money to keep especially since the bidding war for him would be one of the more brutal ones in recent wrestling history and if WWE settles with MLW (which considering where the case is going, there really doesn’t seem to be any other option), I’d say a good chunk of that money would go towards keeping that from changing. There is that Trinity girl in Impact but I feel the window for bringing her in has shut for the time being. Not entirely sure why. 😉

Not gonna lie, I fully expected Jey to bitch out and fall in line again like he has constantly for the past 3 years. I do wish I could have seen this segment without knowing what was coming. That said, it was still really well done. Feels like a breath of fresh air to see Roman get his comeuppance. Of course, I'm still half expecting to see Roman find a way to hold the titles until the heat death of the universe.

What an incredible story this has been, from the very beginning with Roman breaking Jey and Jimmy trying his best to save his brother, to now, Jey refusing to turn on the one person who has always cared for him. The whole 'Honorary Uce' saga with Sami and Jey's incredible acting throughout. The rise of Solo as a true star in the company. KO/Sami reunion. Sami betrays Roman. The whole ambiance in Montreal. Jimmy turns on Roman.
This entire thing has been I N C R E D I B L E and I cannot wait to see how it all culminates. I hope hope hope hope Jey dethrones Roman with Jimmy/Sami's help, but I don't even care how it ends because the ride has been phenomenal.
I hope they make documentaries about this storyline with every key person involved.
This storyline has given us some of my favorite moments in wrestling, and I am so thankful for Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns, Sami Zayn and whoever else had a hand in creating it.
Edit: It also gave us Samantha Irvin going GOD mode on Roman's entrances

I can't shake the suspicion that Jey isn't letting the "you doubted me" stuff go and will turn on Jimmy, too.

This stuff has been entertaining but it's amazing how none of this required Roman to win at Mania. He's not going to defend the title until SummerSlam.

After Jey's first two main events where Roman's control of Jimmy cost Jet the title both times, there is only one logical conclusion to this story, and that is the one that brings it full circle, and that is Jey beating Roman for the title at Summerslam. Cody still gets the WWE title at Wrestlemania, he just doesn't need to beat Roman to do it.
Roman is supposed to be taking a long break once he drops the title. Cody as Champion v a returning Roman as Challenger is a fantastic main event for WM41.

Watching that segment again, Roman was so good.
He managed to be both irate and barely able to stand up because Jey just kicked his head off.
He sold the double superkick like he got shot. Just great stuff.

Just great stuff. The off-air exclusive stuff with Roman trying to recover as the fans shower him with “you deserve it” chants is even better.

They just delivered an all time GOAT segment.

We can all be sure that it ain’t Vince writing this because it is GOOD. If Vince wrote this, oh boy! I can only imagine how awful it would be compared to this.

I mean, he did write the Mega Powers and the majority of the Attitude era. This type of big "Soap opera" storyline is right up Vince's alley.

I love when everything is locked in like this
