Exactly. There’s still time to pivot. Maybe they won’t, and we got what we got, but there’s still plenty of time to do something. Don’t even need to pivot. It’s the first week after the Royal Rumble. We still have 8 weeks of television to go. 8 weeks of storytelling. Nobody knows what is/was/will be planned. Everyone hates the dirtsheets, but all of this anger is off of reports… from the dirtsheets. 🤣

We have to remember the Elimination Chamber too...what will be the stakes there if the matches are already set? Exactly. This renders that event useless, and the Australians who paid to bring WWE over won’t be happy. Not to be all conspiracy, but I can’t help but feel there’s more to this.

It just hit me what they should do to get out of this, if all parties actually agreed on it. Whether it’s this week, or next week, have Rock come out and offer Roman back to Cody. He can say The People have clearly spoken and want The People want is Cody. And end it with saying he will still be seeing Roman soon. If Rock feels he has to “save WrestleMania” then it’s time to put his money where his mouth is. Turning it into a triple threat makes even less sense than what has already happened. I don't know if that would even work because Cody was already made to look so very stupid. Do you have an idea? Or do you just not care because you don’t watch the current product?

I will say, if they actually are doing this to distract from the Vince stuff, it's working. No one is talking about it anymore. Everybody is definitely still talking about it just not here because any mention of Vince news automatically results in a ban warning. I am speaking from experience on that one. I also don't buy the logic that this stuff with The Rock was done to deflect the ugly Vince press. As if people are too dumb to be able to have negative feelings about two separate things at once especially when one is real-life and the other is fantasy. Kind of telling how stupid they think their fanbase is.

I mean getting it back to Roman vs. Cody is the only way to fix it as best as possible. I think if you put The Rock out there to put over Cody and acknowledge it as the best scenario, and thus admitting to the mistake that was made, it would be the best thing they do could to make it right.

They're not going to cancelling a multi million dollar match because people online are upset. Cody has a fanbase but does he sell out arenas? LOL he was getting booed out of arenas in AEW and to be honest he's popular but he's not this mega star that people make him out to be. If Cody had the same drawing power as The Rock then there would be an argument but this is WM40, people have begged for Roman vs Rock for years. Also, what's wrong with the WHC? Why does Cody need to win the WWE title.

Why does Cody need to win the WWE title. Not saying it’s all Cody but WWE has been selling out arenas for the last year and doing record business. Most the time without Roman. All the time without The Rock. Does he draw as much as the Rock? Probably not, but the Rock isn’t going to be sticking around and Wrestlemania, not any one star, sells itself. And the “story” is him winning the WWE Championship. What his dad or brother never did.
