Now I know most people wanted Cody to win @ WM but looking back I’m thinking Reigns was the right call... I also wanted Cody to win but right now the Bloodline are on fire ffs...
Their recent 1000 day celebration segment scored about 3million views which shows fans are still interested in this storyline & it’s getting better with USO’s turning on Reigns/Solo
I personally think Reigns should hold the WWE/Universal Titles til at least WM40 or even longer... maybe another 2/3 years tbh.

I have no issue with it. No one else in WWE has his stature right now. Who would you even put the belt on? Cody ... no. Seth has the less important one. KO or Sami ... no. AJ? No. Lashley? No. WALTER? No. Brock? Boring.
WWE needs to build their next big guy organically and have him run with it.

Roman is awesome as the champ. I was glad he beat Cody. Roman had nothing to do with Cody's story, you could have replaced Roman with any other superstar and Codys story does not change one bit.
It has to be more personal for Roman to lose the title in my opinion.

Nope not happy at all,Cody should've finished his story at Mania. Roman doesn't need the title for this Bloodline collapse story. You go with the hot hand and Cody sure was that going into Mania,now whenever he does finish his story. Its never gonna be as big of a moment as it couldve been.

It doesn't bother me at all. I would totally have Cody take it from him at Summerslam, though.
I'm more unhappy with the design of the new title. It's extremely lazy...but one giant WWE logo is better than two, I guess.
I would have Gunther take the WWE title at Mania 40. Whether it's Cody or Roman, I don't care as long as Gunther gets the belt. Even if it's heel vs heel in the main event of Mania...get that belt on Gunther. Dude is the man.

They need to push somebody to challenge him for the championship fast.

Yes because it saves me time as I don't have to watch the TVs. Reigns isn't on them anyway but I watch the PPVs. I refuse to get invested in stories though because the Cody one drained me after he lost.

I’ve come around on it. I mean I do think that Cody beating Roman is the way to go. We have to wait, see how this next 8 months play out. Cody eventually vanquishing Brock, kicking on thru to being sole survivor at SvS, winning the rumble again from number 2… that’s a ing build up. My only worry, is he loses to Roman again.. that can’t happen.

Hold it until the right guy comes along to take it. Nobody on the roster qualifies.

I believe they made the right decision having Cody lose. I think he's even more over than he would have been had he won. The Bloodline storyline is getting brilliant again too, and I doubt we'd be getting this if Reigns loses the titles.
With the World Heavyweight title starting to fill the void that unifying the titles left, I say give him another year if the story's keep up.

I'm good with it.
I know Cody is the way they are going but still kinda want Jey to be the one to dethrone him.

I would love to see Roman Reigns break Bruno Sammartino's records, but I wouldn't mind if he only surpasses Hulk Hogan's records and takes 2nd place.

I am. If after two years of being champion, it feels pointless if you’re not going to go for 1000 days. I don’t see a reign like this happening again for several decades so by all means, go all in.
I’d be fine with him holding it for another Wrestlemania main event at least. I’m just hoping that without The Usos by his side anymore, there’s less cheating going on.

No, I think Cody Rhodes needed to beat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania but they wanted that 1,000 day reign to sell a bunch of ing t-shirts. Roman Reigns is the most boring champion and I hate the booking of Roman Reigns, the WWE doesn't know how to make any new main eventers to go against Roman. I am bored to death of the Bloodline bullcrap.

The Bloodline story is some of the best stuff in 10/15 years tbh... maybe even 20 years

They need to push somebody to challenge him for the championship fast. That was my thought when the draft was over. Who is even a possibility on the SD roster? AJ? Would at least be a relatively fresh feud for Roman. Needs some work though, feuding with Karrion Kross isnt going to do him any favors. I would have said Lashley can be a threat if this was Nov of last year. Since then he's been fed to Brock, no match at Mania and hasnt done anything noteworthy in about 7 months. Edge & Mysterio would just be rehashes of past feuds. Sheamus would have been better off months ago. Theory has done absolutely nothing since before Mania. They better have a plan to carry this bloodline story for the next 6-8 months, turn Solo face to drag it out. Because I don't see who else would even be a contender on SD.

Love Roman as the champion. The championship not being defended at every show makes it feel more important to me. That said, I look forward to Cody beating him for it. Whether that is Summerslam or in Philly for 40.
