Why AEW's first match of 2020 is concerning; is Cody this generation's Jeff Jarrett?

Cody is getting way too much story, to the detriment of other faces. They are fukking up badly by giving one guy so much attention. He's not even supposed to vie for the title again, so why is he winning every match now?

What should have been a measuring stick for Darby, after a hard fought draw, somehow became a pissing contest for Cody. Genuinely don't see the point in adding Arn to give the latter a veteran coached win. Shouldn't that have been the young upstart's look?

Jobbed out Butcher and Blade in a week, after an introduction that was fukked up on inception, for a quick payoff that didn't even feel earned. They could have been heavy heat heel champs by now, but they're a joke.

Cody's sheer audacity to shyt on HHH, while doing the same run, is truly fukking RICH. He really is just full of himself, this is like watching him bogart Bullet Club shine all over again.

Bucks and Kenny losing enough to get fans mad, outside observers concerned, and they hand Star Trek entrances and WCW Redux to CODY?

We haven't really even dug into how untalented and truly annoying Brandi is, either. Around legendary talent for years, still looks green as goose shyt, let's put her "in charge" of Awesome Kong. Voodoo. Some bald guy.

They even have other wrestlers mentioning the joke projects, in an attempt to try and legitimize these already mocked acts.

Forcing shyt that didn't work is what turned people off of WWE, paving the exact same roads they did. All the while managing some Jeff Jarrett shyt all over again.

Cody Rhodes wrestling as a babyface, adds AA to manage him, all so he could go over someone who needed a good win. Even the Coffin Drop apron spot felt backwards.

The very first match of AEW this decade is not a good look for the company.

I don't particularly rate Cody but they're booking him the right way...they're making him look like an actual star and shock surprise he's over with their fans.

This is what they should've been doing with Omega and The Bucks.

Don't blame Cody because he's the only one of the four who isn't afraid to be called out as a booker/wrestler who wants to put himself over.

I don’t even know what some of y’all complain about Cody so much. Cuz y’all be the same group that be complaining about “too much flippy shyt and hardcore shyt” which is the same shyt fans like me love to see and what to see more of.:lolbron:

Cody is one of the guys that actually does that “slow down” shyt so many claim to love and if he wasn’t there...... shyt would be “all flips, no kicks” which is fine for me but bad for y’all.:heh:
