Roman Reigns Says A 'Bunch Of B*tches' Ruined Plans For His Match With The Rock, Says Cody Rhodes Is A Politician

This whole story is fucking stupid. Let's be honest. The fact they still refer back to their idiotic original decision is pathetic.

The Rock thought the fans would lap it up because he got cheered previously, it backfired because it was nonsencial and illogical and they moved on with the correct match for this year's main event. Get on with it.

Even more stupid when we know Reigns vs Rock is just going to happen next year anyway.

It's a really fucking easy story to tell. Why they keep referring back to an error in judgement is beyond me. Just get to building final boss, high chief Rock and the divide within the Bloodline and let Cody complete his story.

Want to give us the logical explanation of why Reigns/Rock would be a logical match to make for the WWE when we know the Rock can't win the title?

1) He can, and did so in 2013

2) I don’t actually care if it’s title or without the title. But it’s a far more interesting story and has more presence than Daddy’s Boy vs Reigns which is turning out to be a fucking snooezest which you can’t even deny

It sure is. Both companies push political agendas and ideologies in their comics and their movies. Black Adam isn't actually black and Aquaman is actually a blonde white guy. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

I meant about it being in the top 5. When you say, "That isn't saying much." you're conceding that his premise is true.

Black Adam's box office was under $400M. That's not top 5 for DC, it might not even be top 10.

He's working more of a Hollywood schedule and he's in his 50's, so no, he can't.

If you think this Mania buildup hasn't been the best in years, I don't even know what to tell you. You hold an objectively incorrect opinion.

It’s been good solely because of the Rock. Cody vs Reigns has NO chemistry and both of them are flopping. Go check out the main section and all the threads, I am not the only one saying this.

It's been good because Cody's been propping up the Rock. Remember when the Rock cut a promo on Austin Theory and Jinder and no one cared? That's not entirely true people noticed how much better Jinder's promo was. The Rock's outstanding delivery of Gewirtz's corny material only works if there's a foil, and Cody's been the perfect foil. The problem with Cody/Roman is that Roman is a third wheel and isn't contributing anything because the feud has become Cody/Rock for Roman's title.

The views of both those videos say otherwise.

Roman isn’t a third anything. It’s the Rock and then it’s the other three (Reigns, Rhodes and Rollins) beneath him. Cody sounded like he was having a panic attack last night and Reigns cooked him on the mic lmao.

Because Cody and Roman really have no "feud" at this point. Cody just wants the belt. Doesn't matter who has it. They've had to change the focus from whatever personal animosity Cody and Roman could spark up, to more of a faction war where the focus is Cody's avengers ending the Bloodline, because Rock has to work the tag match at the show to get 30 million extra in stock.

Rock/Theory: 7.6M views
Rock/Jinder(where a returning champion was advertised): 7.1M

But also....
CM Punk return: 9.8M views

So maybe have a little awareness of the actual relevance of YouTube views.

Except the Rock is only entertaining when he has a partner to promo on. Granted watching him shit on Reigns farce of a career would have been funny, it wouldn't have had any longevity for a 3 month build.

Cody wins RR 2024 - 3.6 mill - back at ya lol

They would have had far more to talk about indeed, more than ‘you were an accident’ or ‘your family would be ashamed of you’.

It'd be a recycled Jey v Bloodline feud.

Jey vs Bloodline is far greater and more personal than Rhodes vs Reigns.

Greater, no. More personal, yes. Either way, I don't need to see it again with the Rock starring as Jey.

You weren’t doing Cody any favours with that comment

Why has your explanation of why Rock/Roman is the logical match evolved into, "Durrr, duurrrr, BuT C0dY1!!11" ?

Both greater and more personal. Same with Zayn vs Reigns

1. It’s been anticipated in nearly a decade in various media outlets and fandom. Things just don’t appear out of ‘nowhere’
2. There is a bloodline connection
3. They have not faced before. I know you want to say it’s a rehash of Jey vs Roman but Jey is not the Rock, and does not bring the same chemistry or Aura. And Cody vs Reigns HAVE already faced before anyway. So a repeat is already about to happen
4. To answer your last question. Because Rhodes vs Reigns is happening again and is proving to be a snoozefest, again, not just me saying this. And it’s natural to draw a comparison.

As I said earlier, if you think that this Wrestlemania buildup is a snooze fest, you're objectively wrong.

You're also still pretending that the Rock isn't going to be off TV shortly after Mania because he has at least one more movie to shoot this year.

I already said it’s good but solely because of the ROCK. The Cody vs Reigns in of itself sucks.
