I like picking on AEW but it seems silly to try to make a scene over cody/bucks/kenny/jericho winning shyt just because they run the promotion.

The thing is YB and Omega are main eventers. Cody is upper midcard at best. :ld:

Honestly, i couldn’t care less if he’s champ because it’s bound to happen. :manny:

Lets be real. If not for Cody the WWE would've signed The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega and we wouldn't have first legit competitor to WWE in 20 years. Dude deserves a 4-5 month run just for that alone.

Tony Kahn maybe would have made a wrestling promotion but all the key players in AEW would be in NXT/WWE right now if Cody doesn't do his thing after he leaves WWE.

Those are just simple facts.

So you weren’t impressed with his matches this year? I think he has been the best wrestler In the company because he has had the best matches this year. I mean you can’t tell me he hasn’t had the best matches on all 4 AEW shows. Doesn’t that put him past the midcard level? Omega has not been better then Cody in AEW and the YB are a tag team

Are there many other legit options to who could be champ? :manny:
Moxley, Omega, Pentagon, and maybe Fenix. Build up a MJF or Jungle Boy and they can get there too but still present time the options are slim. Cody’s been one of the, if not the consistently best guy they’ve had since they’ve started up and he’s one of the few guys they have who can cut promos AND work. I think the comparisons and jokes to a TNA Jarrett are funny and I definitely get them, but TNA at the time had a deeper talent pool than AEW has now, I don’t think Cody becoming champion would be anywhere near as egregious as Jarrett in TNA. If he becomes champ in the interim while they’ve got Page/MJF/Luchasaurus or whoever else cooking then I can’t hate on it.

Edit: to answer the question I’d say 10-12 months. I’d like to think they wouldn’t do it immediately and they’d have other options first, and they’d have the ability to build talent to that level.
