Edge and Christian said it on their podcast a couple of weeks back that he wanted them and the Hardys to do something like that.

They're locked in for a while, they're still high in the rankings, and ratings were down before they got their last TV deal raise.

I want that shirt.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Kenny losing to Okada so Cody vs Okada can happen?

 

[Heroman]

Cody vs Okada isn't happening in Long Beach.

 

[RecRoulette]

Cody vs Okada isn't happening in Long Beach.

It would truly be an American Nightmare.

 

[Fox318]

Cody vs Okada isn't happening in Long Beach.

People would be asking for refunds.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

They're gonna make Cody the leader of BC when Kenny inevitably leaves aren't they??

 

[Heroman]

Cody isn't a full time njpw wreslter so no.

 

[Tom Nook]

May the Fourth be with you.

If it wasn't for the Tekken cross promotion I would've split The Elite off awhile ago.

 

[Sephzilla]

Star Wars merch is the closest Zach Ryder will ever get to anything resembling a star

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Was it ever revealed what the plan was if Zack never got injured and Hype Bros were no.1 contenders?

 

[Angry Grimace]

BAH GAWD ROMAN LOOK BEHIND YOU

I'M NOT FINISHED VISITING TOURIST SITES WITH YOU

 

[Mase Gumble]

Was it ever revealed what the plan was if Zack never got injured and Hype Bros were no.1 contenders?

they'd have lost?

 

[Sephzilla]

They don't give a shit about the ratings

Yet HHH always vanishes during football season and Vince booked main events around a presidential debate

 

[Roland_Gunner]

Cody isn't a full time njpw wreslter so no.

BC is like the fifth most important faction in New Japan right now so they'd probably fine with it being lead by part-time Cody.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

they'd have lost?

Just wondering since AA got it then and they won the belts right off the bat. Maybe they had to speed it up given that Randy would win the rumble like a month later.

 

[HazySaiyan]

There's no way they'd actually do Okada vs Cody at Long Beach, right? Right?!

 

[Heroman]

BC is like the fifth most important faction in New Japan right now so they'd probably fine with it being lead by part-time Cody.

5th? Naw like number 3 , and you can't really build around someone who isn't there.

I hope the complete lack of heat HHH vs Seth had taught Triple H to fuck off with refusing to appear because he doesn't want to be on Raw if there's bad rating.

Former WWE writer on his rejected ideas:

Rhodes had started sporting a cheesy, thin moustache that immediately caught the attention of the fans, who chanted "Cody's moustache" during his matches. WWE Diva Kaitlyn had tweeted several times in the past that she had a thing for guys with moustaches. This one was a no-brainer -- or so I thought.

At the time, Rhodes and Damien Sandow were paired together as best friends and tag-team partners. I thought it would be compelling if moustache-lover Kaitlyn, a babyface, suddenly found Rhodes irresistible despite the fact that he was a heel.

Rhodes and Kaitlyn would begin dating, causing Sandow to resent her for putting a strain on his bromance and for her trying to change Rhodes by encouraging him to abandon his villainous ways. Having to choose between a love interest and a close friend is something a lot of people could identify with.

I figured we could take the storyline in several different directions. The obvious route would be for a jealous Sandow to turn on Rhodes. Eventually, Sandow would get together with a rival of Kaitlyn's, leading to a series of mixed tag matches.

Another way to go would be for Kaitlyn to turn heel and hook up with Sandow, saying Sandow's impressive beard put Rhodes' moustache to shame.

My initial pitch of Kaitlyn being attracted to Rhodes actually did make it onto TV, but I could tell McMahon wasn't all that interested in it. When Brie and Nikki Bella returned to WWE, the storyline was abruptly dropped after a couple weeks because McMahon decided to align the Bella twins with Rhodes and Sandow.

"What about the budding romance between Rhodes and Kaitlyn?" I asked McMahon during a booking meeting.

McMahon, who had made it clear on several occasions he did not find Kaitlyn's muscular physique all that attractive, replied (and I'm paraphrasing): "If one of the Bellas showed interest in Cody, why would he ever look at Kaitlyn again?"

Undeterred, I said, "Because plenty of men in our audience think Kaitlyn is hot whether you think so or not."

Actually, I didn't say that. I believe my response was, "Fair enough, sir."

I guess he really is going blind.
