So Rock basically wants control of WWE.

The backstage talk and dirt sheet stuff is crazy.

Basically Rock gets appointed to the TKO board, then has his own writer (Gewirtz) appointed to creative.

Within a week, you go from Cody pointing at Roman yelling "you, you!" after his Rumble win to him stepping aside for Rock.

Everyone says this call was made above HHH's head. So you've got two years of build for one match, and Rock steps in and rips up the whole thing just to feed his ego.

Half the people say this is paving the way for Gewirtz to replace HHH in the wake of the Vince scandal.

Hope everyone is prepared for Samoans to hold every belt in WWE for the next five years.

Don’t care who faces who, but man is that tough having Cody go out there to bend over and neuter himself, while offering a contradictory explanation void of any weight given everything he’s portrayed.

It’s either lazy writing and going that actual direction, or intentionally leaving doubt to get people talking. If it’s the former, at least have things make sense.

Either way, for years have known Rock is one of the biggest POS narcissistic egoistical bag of dicks, so never underestimate what he is capable of doing for his own benefit. The proof has been in the pudding countless times when you look at how that snake operates his schtick and day to day life. There is no goodwill from him for the sake of goodwill. If he fuking goes out of the way to hold the door for someone walking into a store, you are damn sure to hear about it from him.

I never had an opinion on him until the Joe Rogan interview a couple of months ago. It was mind blowing how fake he came across. It was clearly all just media training. Felt like someone who has been a politician for 30 years. Dude doesn't even have a personality.

I think they did cody dirty. They basically cucked him. Having him win the rumble to literally step aside to the rock was retarded.


But holy fuk at the iwc losing their absolute chit over this. What a bunch of bishes.


I'd love for rock to go full hollywood heel and roast them.

Cody is getting punked.

Maybe Rock will allow Cody carry the belt to the ring at WM.

Rocks Hollywood career tailspinned out and he's pretty much an after thought there now.

I don't watch today's wrestling but I'm guessing any son of dusty Rhoads is probably more qualified than the rock when it comes to trying to save that sinking ship or more like raise a ship that has already sank.

Yeah kind of ridiculous. No reason why it can't be Rock vs Roman for a "head of the table" Bloodline family feud that doesn't involve the title.

Rock in Cody's corner for WM, blocks Solo and Jimmy from interfering, helps Cody beat Roman for the title and voila. Not rocket science.

Cody winning the RR is completely undermined by stepping aside for the Rock. Cody actually looked like Rock's biotch. No way is WWE this dumb. There has to be more to this.

People are such pussies

If you get the chance to put the Rock in a main event of WrestleMania, you do it.

Rock/Reigns is 10x the marquee of Rhodes/Reigns.

Let the Rock get beat clean by Reigns. Give him another fkn year as champ.

And then let Cody beat him.

If by that you mean take the heat away from the guys currently working backstage who have kept hush on their knowledge of Vince’s behavior for years and years, and in some cases decades.

Absolutely retarded. Nobody is going to care about Cody a year from now. They biffed it last year and miraculously kept Cody over for another year only to not do it again. Most people think this is a work like Daniel Bryan yes movement. Get everyone behind Cody by thinking they ****ed him and then he will either be in the match ala triple threat or it will just be him and Roman anyways and the Rock doesn't wrestle. I highly doubt the rock can go more than 10 mins at this point.

Retarded?

Cody is more over now than he was when he lost last year to Reigns.

This is what I’m talking about with whiny fans. OH NO! 12 MORE MONTHS!

The GODDAMN ROCK vs Roman Reigns should not pivot because of backlash. Cody/Reigns pivots due to Rock. Fans want to ignore that this match has been anticipated and talked about for years. The Rock is more inherently tied into the Bloodline story than Cody ever was - which bolstered Reign’s run for years now well before Cody came back.

The ultimate goal is to get Cody his win over Reigns. And that will fkn happen. But you’ve got the green light on Rock/Roman at WrestleMania. You do that first, you feed the Rock to Reigns, and Cody has another hurdle added to his story.

But goddamn guys. Think long term.
