The SS talk comes from the fact Rome so close to 1000 days as Universal champ.

I don’t even think most care if he drop the WWE title to Cody at Mania, we just wanna see him get 1000 days as champ then drop it to Jey or maybe even Sami. If they did it that way, everyone gets what they want.
I'll admit I haven't sat down and actually watched a SD/Raw in a bit, are they making a big deal of 1000 days or is this just the fans thing? Because it seems arbitrary at this point, he's dominated for so long already who cares if he's 60 days short or whatever

Wouldn't he lose both titles if he lost? The last few tag title matches both were on the line, I can see they have some grey area to play with here.

Nah Roman needs to drop both when he drops, the win is super hollow if he's still a champion. Put both on Cody and let him cut the biggest My Daddy Said promo of all time so we never have to hear about Dusty again and figure out a way to split the belts after

Not sure if I’d say they make a big deal bout it but they def been bringing it up

A Royal Rumble win guarantees you a shot at the title of your choice, not both belts

There may have been a few times we had champ vs champ and one walked away with both belts but there has not ever been a time when a champ faced someone with 2 belts and won both at the same time. 2014 don’t count because they technically combined the titles and was just waiting till they designed one belt. Plus there was no real brand split back then so one world title made a lot more sense. Now each network wants their own world champ which is why Roman had to start making appearances at Raw since he got the belt from Brock last year. They had a whole year and still haven’t combined both titles into one when they easily could have by now.

The fact they doing this for both belts got me thinking Cody bout to take that L :sas2:

My mistake, but besides Bobby, he beat everyone else.

And Bobby lost to Brock, who lost to Roman, so the booking is stupid.
Roman has not beat Seth either, he lost that match at the RR last year by DQ when Seth got him all in his feelings and that’s the only time they wrestled since Rome got the title 2 1/2 years ago

I low-key want to see a long feud between Cody and Gunther for the title I have to admit....if they do decide to pull the trigger. I could also see Cody having some fun title defenses just because he's entertaining to watch in the ring.

Again, Jey isn’t even going to sniff a world title.

And he’s beaten both Seth and Bobby twice (once for each belt).

Again, he squashed everyone. That’s the fault of the bookers, such a big roster, this shouldn’t be the predicament
Jey is up next breh, he's at least getting that IC title, and even that is beneath him. Fans have been ready for that Main Event Jey run with actual crowds.

Idk. You gotta be able to carry segments to be a main eventer, Jey's good at making facial expressions to things and has good timing. Like we saw last Friday, he can't carry a segment and tell a story. That was awful

And if you split them up Jimmy's a low card guy from that point on so they gotta take that into consideration too

Roman Reigns has been champion for nearly 1000 days and you’re telling me Cody Rhodes is the guy to beat him?

Yea Cody cool and all but Cody??? :skip:

If I’m WWE, Reigns ain’t dropping that shyt til next year versus Cena to get to 17 reigns and break the Flair record or retire.

Let’s discuss.
It’s wrestling :mjtf: DB beat Randy and Batista at the same time, why y’all trying to make sense of booking lol
Cena beating reigns for the title would be wildly detrimental to the business

:mjtf: Well damn was Shawn and Bret carrying stories when they was in tag teams? How do you know he can’t carry a story when he haven’t had his shot , wrestling is not that serious , give him a chance and see where he goes with it , he was getting a good crowd response when he was faking being lost from the bloodline

Facts. Seems forced to be honest. He wasn’t ready back then and thought he’s genuinely over…he’s not the one to go over Roman
