NBA star Dwight Howard was a guest on Monday Night Raw this week, with comped front row seats.Triple H has expressed interest in signing Howard to a WWE contract.However, it appears the NBA star might not share the same interest.A friend filmed Howard's ringside reactions through out the night, and when Cody Rhodes, the alleged face of WWE, made his entrance, Dwight Howard embarrassingly yells out "WHO'S THAT?", as he and his friend behind the camera laugh, exclaiming "I DON'T KNOW!"This comes just a year after Jon Stewart would bring up Wrestlemania during a segment on the Daily Show, naming The Rock and Cena to huge pops, but awkward silence and laughter when he names Cody Rhodes.Was Big Tone right to ban Cody from ever becoming world champion as long as he worked for him?video:https://x.com/i/status/2027119185755557994
you're posting this gay shit at 11pm local time about a country you don't live in
>>19965114When Street Fighter comes out you'll all be singing a different tune.
That's all planned by Triple Nose and the rest of TKO. They don't want stars known outside of the industry. Cody and Roman are in Street Fighter because the Rock likes them both to try and see if they'll sink or swim in Hollywood, but WWE as a whole is resistant to making stars bigger than them.
>>19965114>images you can hear
>>19965114Jon Stewart, Dwight Howard. Welp, I guess the Codester is cooked.
cody is such a janetty KWAB nba has fallen off though
>>19965114It's really more just that Cody as a face doesn't work. He literally blew up in the minor leagues thanks to his bleach-blonde suit-wearing heel gimmick. When you take that and try to make it a face, it doesn't have the same level of magic.Even pre-release, people's favorite version of Cody is consistently identified as his vanity gimmick. What else is "The American Nightmare" supposed to identify than a bad guy? He could have been the most compelling heel on the roster and maybe eventually had a title reign still, but he just had to be loved and given the easiest pathway to the world championship post-Roman.https://youtu.be/oYqY7Tt7KH0
>>19965167he's a natural heel. he seems incredibly insincere. the fact he yearns for babyface approval is heelish in itself.
>>19965114How does this literal who probably make more money than me and is given free front row seats by Triple H himself yet not know who the fuck Cody Rhodes is? I've been watching since late '05. Did this guy just start watching a month ago?
>>19965194>nba hall of famer>also a hilarious well known meme for all his sexual deviances and 100s of illegitimate children>literal who
why is wwe so desperate so seem in? no one gives a fuck about nba anymore
its not just WWE, wrestling in general has been in a bubble since the PG era came about and everyone collectively tuned out Need a real crossover star to emerge but i dont see anyone current really being that guy, Cody was close but the story was over not necessarily him as a worker
>>19965259Logan
>>19965262he's just over with internet kiddies. ask any adult who he is, they cant answer.But everyone knows rock and cena even if logan might have bigger social media numbers.
>>19965194this is true, if you don't even remember Cody from Legacy at the least then you're either 45+ or a fake fan
>>19965262>>19965267he has too much baggage to ever truly get over with the normgroid crowd imo
>>19965270>>19965216>>19965194Hes a tranny bugchaser who got excommunicated from the NBA for being accused of raping a transvestite
>>19965290Oh so an AEW fan
>>19965290So that's why he's front row at the Weinstein fed
