nothing personally against son, he's decent in ring and all that shyt, but I just find myself not giving a fukk about anything involving him ever

team with dibiase jr = channel change

dr doom or whatever comic book character he was supposed to be = channel flipped

no gimmick at all ic title run = channel flip

he just looks so...........generic i guess, and i know you nikkas gonna come in here and defend him and shyt, but besides stealing lowkis tidal wave kick, he really is not worth a shyt in my opinion

This is true, never cared about him. He's good in the ring, but he needs a character that's believable and not some shyt that stopped working 85.

Tyson Kidd deserves Cody's air time.

I liked his Dashing Cody Rhodes gimmick better. He's been boring ever since. In fact 96% of the roster is boring as shyt with no standouts. This is the worst roster in since 95.

A lot of peeps shat on the dr doom/phantom of the opera stuff saying it was midcarder status..But what has he amounted to since disbanding the gimmick? I bet if undertaker debut tomorrow everyone would say that his deadman sctick wasnt mainevent worthy too.Sometimes u just got to let something ride

well he had two pretty good gimmicks with dashing and then with the mask and giving out paper bags to the fans but of course they made him drop both of them and now hes stuck...guess thats what you get when you try to get over in the E...same thing happened to ziggler too :manny:

Cody's starting to get IWC hate, I guess he's finally made it :yes:



He's not.

Career wise Cody>>>>>>>>Dolph

stop it breh, cody isnt even close to being over, dude gets crickets when he comes out

even his "taunt" is some generic shyt, all he does is raise his arm like hes in the nation of domination, which jericho also does

Cody is a talented dude. I think he's worked his gimmicks well, can put on a solid match and cut a solid promo. Problem to me is that in an era where its all about "real guy" gimmicks, nobody really knows who Cody Rhodes is. At some point you have to move beyond those gimmicks and connect with the audience. He hasn't done so yet. Part of that is on him, part of on lack of opportunity.

At the very least, I think he can be a really good career midcard guy with the potential to move up with the right amount of momentum.

As for Young Dolphin, he's better to me. Better in the ring and has much more natural charisma.
