>his gimmick is that all the other wrestlers constantly reinforce that he's a draw and super good and is a dimes factory>actually he has never drawn a dimeIs this a rib?
at the start of his push they were pulling 3-4 milly easily, now they barely can hold a milly and that's a ding-dong diddly factola!
>>20896789>>his gimmick is that all the other wrestlers constantly reinforce that he's a draw and super good and is a dimes factory>>actually he has never drawn a dimebut enough about the "QB1" cody
>>20896801>thread criticizing roman>cody brought up within the first few postsWhy does QB1 mentally decimate mudliners so effortlessly?
>>20896808they still hold it against him for ending his shitty title reign and daring to sell more shirts and tickets than lil romanetty
>>20896808You said something that reminded me of cody retard
it was really funny when this shitter was champion for 4 years and was still only the 3rd most important person in his wrestlemania feud because he got jannettied by the rock
>>20896864I remember when they were building the Cody/Seth/Rock/Roman angle and thinking how embarrassing it was that even fucking Seth was doing better work than he wasThe bloodline revisionism is unfortunately set in stone, there are hordes of mutts that believe Roman was the driving force behind WWE's short 2020s boom.
>>20896808Because all of these type of threads are made by Codytranny because he deludes himself into thinking that every verifiable metric to gauge whether WWE has lost traction since Cody took over is somehow Roman's fault.
>>20896789He draws you into posting about him every day
>>20896883>WAHHHH CODY WAHH WAHH WAHHHHHOkay but I don't give a shit about the fag that's currently having a kiss-off with Punk over DanhausenWhy is Roman so fucking dimeless and why is Raw currently doing no milly and Summerslam is busting the tarps back out?
>>20896883>that every verifiable metric to gauge whether WWE has lost traction since Cody took over is somehow Roman's fault.roman being the face of raw as it's viewership has cratered is because of "cody taking over"?
>>20896904D-don't bring that up! It's Cody's fault that Roman hasn't been a top 3 merchandise seller in years, okay?!It's Cody's fault that Roman has led the company into two separate dark ages!
>>20896904But that was after WWE had already been run into the ground due to Cody's reign. Factual numbers clearly show that viewershop and sell out arenas quickly stopped after he shat up the product as opposed to before when it was booming.
>>20897027So you're telling me that Roman's reign somehow ran it even further underground, and Roman being the A1 top face of the company takes it even further down than where Cody previously took it?Wow, Roman must be incredibly shit to do more damage in 4 months than Cody did in 2 years.
>>20897027the boom period's height was actually 2023-2025it's disingenuous to say cody's reign took it downwards when cody was literally the top guy, all over the shows, moving the most merch, getting the fotc push during this timeas soon as cody started receiving second-fiddle booking, the disastrous cena retirement took effect and roman got put back on top as the number one guy again it was over
>>20896789WWE was doing well til Mania 40, then everything went to shit. Roman took the Universal Championship, a belt no one cared about, took it to SmackDown!, the #2 show, and made the Universal Championship the main title, and SmackDown! the main show. He's the closest thing to a "superstar" WWE has. If Rock vs. Roman ever happens, it'll be the last "major match" in wrestling. Mania is cooked after that
>>20897081>it's disingenuous to say cody's reign took it downwards when cody was literally the top guy, all over the shows, moving the most merch, getting the fotc push during this timeJust look at the viewership numbers. It's obvious.>as soon as cody started receiving second-fiddle booking, the disastrous cena retirement took effectThese parts I can agree with, he was dealt a shitty hand by Triple H by having to go through repetitive feuds and stagnation.>>20897045I accept your concession.
Bringing up cody worked this guy into a complete meltdown lmao
>>20897088>WWE was doing well til Mania 40btw, this is untrue, because the period directly after 40 was wwe's best period of gate-driven business in historybtw, roman didn't do any of thatwwe took their ONLY world champion after unifying the belts and put him on smackdown, that isn't some great feat by roman, that's the company telling you who the only guy they care to present importantly ishe didn't take some shitter belt and make it relevant, they literally killed the other belt so his would be the more relevant oneroman didn't do anything on the back of being over or a draw, it was all the company moving heaven and earth to tell you he was the only guy that mattered
>>20897105It always does. Mudliners are absolutely ANTAGONIZED by QB1 and he dominates their heads rent free for daring to draw more dimes than lil romanetty>>20897099Is it true that Roman took a bad period of business wherein Cody was top guy and further butchered it thus proving him as even more dimeless than Cody?
>>20896872Honestly Seth deserves praise for his work in that build. He managed to make the match seem grander than the egos and stories of the others involved, making it more of a future of the business viewpoint.
>>20897099>Just look at the viewership numbers. It's obvious.viewership numbers of what?i mean sure, smackdown started doing worse numbers under cody, but compare that to romanwhen roman was working smackdown he was the only world champ, it was the A-Show by default because the company made it the A-Showcody works smackdown with scraps while the company tells you constantly that raw is the A-Show because it's on netflix, of course ratings are gonna go down when it goes from the company telling you it's necessary viewing to keep up with the big angles to secondary televisioni don't buy it's on cody being not a draw compared to roman when compared to roman in every other way he's more of a draw (merchandise, ticket sales)
>>20897113This is beyond disingenuous, it was directly the momentum of The Bloodline, The Rock's involvement, the Netflix deal ROCK was part of, and all the excitement surrounding Roman's work that brought more eyes to the company, and Cena announcing his retirement tour.Their Cody experiment has been abysmal, and just 1 year later people were booing Cody in favour of CenaThe reason they unified the titles was because WWE wanted his historic title reign to directly be attached to the WWE Championship, and the only way to do that was to combine themThere's a reason AGAIN no one cares about the WWE Championship, and all eyes are on what used to the the #2 belt, and AGAIN it's because of Roman. History is literally repeating itself
>>20897120only reason cody is a top guy in the first place is roman
>>20897159>Their Cody experiment has been abysmalthat's because booking has taken a sharp downturn, the bloodline angle was valuable as a springboard, but it in itself wasn't the boom, the biggest draw by far during the boom period of 2023/24 was codycena's retirement tour did more harm than good and brought their momentum to a halt in the latter half of 2025>There's a reason AGAIN no one cares about the WWE Championship, and all eyes are on what used to the the #2 belt, and AGAIN it's because of Romannobody cares about either championship anymore because wwe fumbled bothhowever, the one that you're being told is the number one belt is the one roman's holding, again, he's not over, he's not a draw, he doesn't do anything significant for business and if anything is a negative to it if we're to look at netflix's HORRENDOUS numberseverything you attribute to him is the booking lending him importance and he can't even maintain thatnothing is because of roman, it's because they tell you it's because of roman while people tune out in droves>History is literally repeating itselfkek yeah, just not the period you're thinking of
>>20896789the ribs is on the buttmad obese smarks cause he keeps stacking paper and keeps getting booked as a legend.
>>20897159>and all eyes are on what used to the the #2 belt, and AGAIN it's because of Roman.>Roman holds belt>WWE tells you belt is the most important belt>ratings go down>attendance goes down>popularity goes down>"see it's the most important belt"Genuinely it's insane how subhuman WWE fans are.
>>20897135>viewership numbers of what?Both shows during his absence and dwindling ticket sales. He shows up on Raw often enough. >cody works smackdown with scraps while the company tells you constantly that raw is the A-Show because it's on netflix,They started bleeding numbers well before the Netflix deal. He was presented as THE ace of the company. And again, it's partially not even his fault, he's being given scraps as you said. It's silly that he's not on Raw and it's more of a booking issue that helped accelerate this.
>>20896789only modern wwe fans think this guy is anything but the modern triple hevery accolade is artificial, every evidence of drawing power is falsified and lacking context
>>20897196Dude, this "it's every one else's fault" crap doesn't work when supposedly "everyone is being booked terribly," but Cody is the only one who can't seem to get views. He's not a main eventer, it failed. Roman took a step back so they could push other people, was booked in the mid card fighting for the Ula Fala, came back in the main event THIS YEAR, and it already getting more views than Cody. He AGAIN took the #2, and made it their main belt. Cope harder
>>20897274Not arguing for or against either of them but those numbers are literally shit vs. piss
>>20897274okay but why does cody still sell more merchandise than roman?why is he more of a live event ticket seller than roman?this isnt roman taking the #2 belt into relevance, as soon as he touched it it became the #1 belt because of booking, has it actually translated into making him more of a draw? does he sell more shirts than cody? does he sell more live event tickets than cody? does he even pull better overnight viewership numbers than cody? no to all three and he has the advantage of being on netflix for the last one which is embarrassingyou're actually being propagandized to that roman is some top draw that can take secondary belts and make them primary when in actuality it's just the company completely changing their orders of priority to tell you who you should think is popular
>>20897318These numbers are abysmal for, but this is literally where we are. What used to be the "main belt" can only get 350k views in 3 days and be surpassed in 20 hours? What fucking world are we in that this is supposedly a "major star"?
>>20897367what world are we living on where that guy is still more of a draw than the other guy?oh yeah this one
>>20897390Dude, you're literally talking about the guy who couldn't sell Saturday Night's Main Event in MSG, and WWE had to advertise Roman and Jalen Brunson to draw more interest. There's a reason that segment was a main event, and not Cody and Punk, which AGAIN, every single Roman video ended up getting more views than Cody and Punk.
>>20897493you're just being a fucking idiot on purpose, the Knicks were going to do something at SNME whether the show sold 20,000 or 2,000 tickets and only a fucking retard would pretend otherwisepeople like you are why there can't be serious discussions on here, you ruin everything when you insist on the fag behavior and outright lying and making shit up whenever you aren't getting your way or you start losing the argument
God forbid a man be so sexy
>>20897592>Named Saturday Night's Main Event>Can't main event it>Supposedly a "big draw"Sure buddy. Literally would never happen to Austin, Rock or, Hogan
>>20897592Is your cope dildo vibrating on max settings right now, Codytranny?
>>20897592This anon is correct. They were making a big deal about Danhausen the uncurser of the Knicks returning to New York before they even had a card planned. It was always going to revolve around the Knicks. Pretending it was just some last minute desperation thing is uselessly retarded. No one could believe it if they actually follow the show.
>>20896789the greatest rib was on vince for hiring the dweeb and his extended family
>>20897971The whole "Danhausen" Knicks stuff has more to do with WWE's ESPN deal, than it actually does the NBA. WWE is desperate to have celebs at their events, that's why they had Travis Scott at Mania.Unless WWE also booked the Knicks to win the NBA Finals, none of this was "planned." Jalen did the segment because he's a Roman fan, and even put him in his Mount Rushmore
>>20896789why did you post the censored verison?
>>20896789>>20896801Both are true
>>20898458Is this real?
>>20896789Cody Rhodes and their obsession with having the glorified midcard boring shitter in the mainevent damaged wwe severely.
>Angle is nothing until Sami Zayn carries it
>>20896801Cody and Roman are both dimeless fags who would have been lucky to have been jobbing in European title matches back when wrestling was actually cool.
