:francis:When the last time you seen fans hyped up to see Cawdy out of such a roster? Jarret at least embrace his inner heel. Last time Cawdy was on the radar was on his Indy/American Nightmare steez:ehh:
I pulled the plug on Cody after his Wrestlekingdom 11 match vs. Juice. He was just fukkin weird all match...not a fan.

You are nuts if you think nobody wants to see him out of that fanbase. :comeon: the boo'n is essentially the smarks making him aew john cena. :martin:

No one has ever wanted to see Jarrett, off the top of my head Monty Brown, R Truth, Angle n more because loltna but these guys should have had title runs or had them and Jarret came thru like :mjgrin:.


Cawdy has held 1 belt and used it to put over Big Brody in a squash :wow: Jarrett comparisons draw or otherwise are nuts but ya go ahead. :hubie:

Cody is way way more talented, and accomplished, but in 2021 "do I want to watch them when they're on my tv?"...yeah. Cody = Michael Nakazowa.

:mjlol:

The thing with Cody is that dude is all over the place as a wrestler. He's good with gimmicks and workrate, but somehow he's lost on the roster. Its like he wants to fulfill the magic of his daddy and brother, but at the end of the day...he's just Cawdy:francis:

:mjlol:

:mjlol:Breh outside of the Cody/Dustin match, dude been washed with the crowd. Everybody is getting tired of the same ole stance of a Cody match:

  • Debut wrestler being Cody's ass
  • Cody tries to get his shyt in only to lose
  • Cody cuts a cringy fukking promo and have a forgettable segment
  • Cody match happens and dude uses the budget for military arms for pyro
  • Cody loses/wins
  • Opponent goes to Dark hell or forgotten
:francis:shyts tiring. Either Cawdy embraces his inner heel or he's going to get heat beyond epic proportions. This goes beyond smark shyt breh.

So you're saying you want Cawdy to beat these debuting guys? Then the narrative becomes cawdy beating all the new stars :unimpressed:

I don't care about him squashing a bunch of 120lb indy guys either.

Black was a great debut and win, what established wrestler would you like him to go out there and squash then??



Ya just want him to turn heel so you can cheer him from the "cool kids table" :unimpressed: As someone who has seen the "peak" of his heel work in Japan, no thanks he is fine being a stepping stone for new stars and having fukkery matches on dynamite i'll take that over him in the title picture ALL DAY.

...all three make me want to not watch as much as almost anyone wrestler doing it. My only scale for judging anything in wrestling is 'is it entertaining'. Cody is as unentertaining to me as those 2 :manny:

His entire career i've only liked the original, pre-facemask/bag Dashing Cody Rhodes. That shyt was hillarious. But outside of that he's Jeff Jarrett and i abhor jeff jarrett.
He is AEW's Jeff Jarrett, absolutely.

Even worse, dude was born on third, and thinks he hit a triple.

you got it cawdy = nakazowa a comedy wrestler who has never had a classic or any meaningful feud on US tv. You dudes takes are so trash you got me in here defending the 3 star general :wow:






Cawdy>>>Jarret


see what im saying at ya just typing shyt :hhh: Cawdy not a draw now? :francis: Pretentious? Yes. Lacking self awareness? Yes. Not a draw? :beli:

I don’t care for Cody, but he ain’t drawing shyt. :heh:

I only give Cody props for pushing for All In. If that PPV didn’t happen we wouldn’t have AEW. He’s only had 2-3 matches I enjoyed, but I give more credit to those he’s worked with.

Cody couldn’t even get a 4+ star match out of Omega. The match in Frisco was basic. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cody called an audible in ring for the dumbass Powerbomb table spot. :skip:

never been a fan of his matches, dude was still doing that wwe style in japan Ibushi almost bodied himself putting this clown over :hhh: the two Omega matches legit slowed down Kenny momentum imo :hhh: ima agree to disagree about him being a draw. All in/aew being such a success is partly due to him, he was doing good #s in the indys and giving roh some of their best #s.

they just want him to turn heel so they can cheer him again.

Fans were interested in Cody right after his E departure because he was trying to get in with the “it” crowd. He latched on to BC, which gave us All In, and eventually AEW. I give him credit there, but that’s where it stops. Dude was out of place in BC and IMO, always came off like a try hard with The Elite. I mean, it looks like they don’t even fuxk with him anymore. :skip:

He’s far from a draw. People’s curiosity made him a draw. Years later he’s been exposed for being the same Performer he was in the E. People aren’t paying to see Cody Rhodes like people would pay to see Austin or Rock; shyt, even Flabby Taker would do better numbers.

In terms of character, Roman Reigns has shytted on Cody these past 2 years than Cody’s entire career. He’s truly a B+ talent. :ld:
