I don't, thankfully, see the look you guys are getting at... I repeat, thankfully.
And I say he's on Raw, not a lot to expect. If he was on Smackdown, he may have had a chance at some success. On ECW, he could take to it like a televised OVW.
DH Smith and Rhodes quite honestly are on Raw due to their names, they'd help out ECW big time in the face department.

He's got god given talent but he just needs time and to get his own persona settled in. The "im daddies pride and joy" gimmick just isnt working for him. You cant make another legend like Dusty Rhodes. Just ask David Flair. Think about successful father and sons. They had to have totally different gimmicks to get out from the fathers shadow.....
Ace Cowboy Bob Orton- Legend Killer Randy Orton American Dream Dusty Rhodes- Goldust Rocky Johnson-The Rock Grizzle Smith-Jake Roberts
Now most of those sons were just as successful or better then their fathers. But lets look at the ones that just try to copy cat their dads and live off their names.....
Bruno Sammartino-David Sammartino Vern Gagne-David Gagne (sure he was big in AWA but he and daddy ran the company) Ric Flair-David Flair Bob Armstrong-Scott,Steve and Brad Armstrong (Only one that stepped out was Jesse aka Road Dogg)

He has the oddest build I've ever seen
Like a mix between a 16 year old and a 20 year old

So.. You don't like him because he doesn't roid up?? You don't like him because he wasn't stuck with a stupid gimmick?? I thought people hated that?? Who said I didn't like him because he wasn't roided up or had a stupid gimmick? I don't like him because he just doesn't seem to be much of anything to me in the ring. I'm not gonna say, oh he is the worst wrestler around and that maybe he won't grow on me in time, but I just don't enjoy his matches at all really.

He wouldn't help ECW because no one watches ECW. ECW is trash nowadays, Vince ruined it. It doesn't matter which "brand" they are on, either way they have to gain experience... Give Cody some mic skills and a new gimmick and he'll be fine.

They even host the weekly ECW on wwe.com for people to view, because the ratings are so ****. It's the new Heat.

ECW is exactly what they billed it as- A NEW BREED. Expecting more or less was idiotic regardless of argument. Complaining is just dwelling, when fact is, ECW gives more talent a chance to peak. Certainly you could agree, the guys who shine on ECW, wouldn't get such a fair shake if there was one less brand. I bet you though are against the Draft, you'd rather see 8-10 of the finest wrestlers vying for the top title, and about 50 never will be champions making those 8-10 look better.

But anyway. He lacks the charisma of his daddy and brother, but I think he's good... he's still young, I'm looking forward to seeing what he does in the future though.

He is just so weird looking. I don't understand.
He is a cross between Dracula (mouth) Frankenstein (eye and forehead area) and a pre pubesent boy (body) with a weird lisp (way worse than his dads) and the charisma of Frankenstein.
And he is so god damn smooth looking it is scary. I am going to have nightmares now. Damnit.

Absolutely not.
I think Cody's got something special. He's a bit green right now but pairing him with Holly was probably the best thing they could've done for both of them.

He just needs to develop himself,he is just like Orton when he came in. DDT and Flying Crossbodys and Missile dropkicks suck and he needs to change that.

What was I thinking...I knew that, who the hell is David Gagne...That name sounds familiar for some reason
