Bully: “sit down Dave”
Dave: 👨🏼💻
facts 🤣🤣💀
@@Beefyhasanxiety Got Dave on a leash
That shit was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
spot on!
"And then I told Dave to post his frustration on his youtube channel."
Lmfaao
And Rock will come again to save WrestleMania 41 in 2025 main event. Boycott if you can
😂😂😂
@@siddharthsharmaBelieve naw we want that 1
😂😂😂😂
The documentary seems like The Rock is attempting to praise himself for “fixing” issues that he arguably caused.
nah the small segment of smarks caused the problem.the general public wanted rock vs roman the ratings with stardust as champion has bore that out.once the rock left ratings crashed
@@bb-gc2tx Nah
@@bb-gc2txnah
BINGO!
Not arguably he caused all the issues
It was basically the Rock blowing himself for an hour.
@doubles7533 I watched the entire thing and tbh I don't see how you came to that conclusion. I think people like you just can't handle the truth.
@@TheDarkhorsePurge cuz hes a dave legreca glazer
Blowing himself for an hour is crazy my boy lol go outside and touch some grass 😂
@@rafaellinares5902 exactly glad someone said it 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
@@TheDarkhorsePurge 20 min in, I have nothing negative to say, to me it's a shoot for a possible upcoming story, I think it's well done
I agree with Bubba. If it was Vince? He would have said F the fans and stuck with what he wanted. Damn if it was in Philly
Vince would have forced the rock into the rumble and had him win
Vince is a Legend
They wouldn't have done shit.
What did people expect lmao. No way WWE was gonna post a documentary like that without Dwayne heavy input. At the end of the day with all the interviews that Cody and Gerwitz has done, we all know the full story anyways before the doc was released
@@stevenjoseph6048 It was HIS idea! He already had that in mind before the match h even happened.
I liked how Bully was the voice of reason here.
Bully is awesome
The Rock is an egomaniac, but Bully is part of and understands the wrestling business. He had dealt with a lot of these guys over the years. He knows it’s rare for these egomaniacs to accept defeat and pivot.
The Brian Gewirtz interview was more entertaining than the documentary
100%
Link please
He's the Rock. He's bigger than wrestling. If he wanted Rock vs. Roman, we would have gotten Rock vs. Roman. Be appreciative he had enough awareness to allow the changes.
Well, he didn’t want his big dream match to be treated like Roman vs Brock at WM34.😂 Rock is a master of controlling the narrative. But he was wise to pivot. Now Rock-Roman will be bigger than ever and Cody is now a true star. Everyone wins.
@@Jeff_Pryce Exactly
It didn’t tell us anything new really, that’s what disappointed me
It didn't. Rock went over triple h's head to get it WrestleMania main event in the wrestling fan base s*** on it and backfired on him
Rock tried to pull a hulk Hogan from mania 9
@@rc8657the difference is no matter the fan reaction hogan followed through with his selfish decision
Stone cold go a lesser degree
Same
I could of told u that. I don’t see the big deal about why ppl even wanna see it so bad. WM was just a few months ago. U don’t do a documentary right after something happens
Bully missed his opportunity to yell “YOU DONT FUCK THE BUSINESS THE BUSINESS FUCKS YOU”
Calm down man. Sometimes we don't get what we want. That's life 😂😂
Crazy thing is, He got what he wanted: Cody finished the story, sooooo lol. I don't get all the anger 🤦🏾♂️
💯💯💯
@@FergusonFamily3 I really don’t get it either. Cody got what he was supposed to get, he’s the WWE champion, he’s the face of the company, the movement was a success. Yet Dave is still in rage mode whenever this is brought up. Maybe it’s PTSD, or maybe he’s mad he wasn’t in the doc. I didn’t think Rock came off looking great, but it’s pointless to get mad all over again after the war was won.
Cody crybabies are a different breed. They got Cody as the champion yet can't even carry SmackDown. Raw has by far been the better product.
The Rock went over Triple H's Head to his bosses (Nick Khan & Ari Emmanuel) to get a Wrestlemania main event and it backfired. That's the whole review.
This concludes my TED Talk.
@@IAmHeartbreak_ if thats what you believe then coo
Rock wanted to be a good guy. But give the credit to Rock that he changed the direction and he even took the Rock Buttom on himself.
Just like black Adam
He did exactly what hulk Hogan got shit on for years
@@antoinelebrane3348anybody with eyes that's not drinking rocks Kool-Aid can see that
I understand being annoyed by how it was presented on the doc but we got what we wanted so who gives a shit lol
EXACTLY! They are blowing this whole thing our of proportion and now some "Dave" is mad that WWE doesnt see it as a big of a deal as some of these marks.. At the end of the day people loved the show and ALL of the Rocks segments and IG posts were great. So why focus on the one thing they did wrong for 4 days lol.. This is goofy
Nah. The gaslighting was way over board
@@reeseangle9621everyone knows the Rock is full of shit. It's not that deep, the documentary was still enjoyable.
@@reeseangle9621ok found something else to watch
Dave is so mad Bully is making sense 😂
The interview y’all did with Brian was LITERALLY more informative then the doc
I love how into it Dave gets.

@@antoinelebrane3348 so are we all
@@MahkyVmedia1 who?! im not
@@antoinelebrane3348 the fact that you think you're not makes it even funnier
Its cringe bruh.
Dave has got to take emotion out of it. I’ve been a busted open fan for years. How Dave reacted to this documentary was overboard. The documentary is called behind the curtain, why would it be about the fans??? The Rock has influence but why diss HHH like he doesn’t have the final say in everything? Thank you Bully for trying to convey the right message. This video was a hard watch with Dave getting so upset.
Because triple H has final say on paper but if the rock who is a board member and close friends with Ari. If he can convince Ari it’s a good idea then it’s probably gonna override what HHH wants
I loved the documentary does he want triple h today he wanted Cody the whole time but rock pushed in no this was great doc I loved it.
What's he talking about fans didn't want rock that isn't true either they did want rock just wanted Cody in main event v Roman but let's not pretend fans don't love final boss it wasn't rock they didn't want they just wanted Cody to finish his story dosnt mean rock didn't pull record viewers.
@@judshuttie70Yes. It wasn’t that we don’t want Rock, we love the Rock. And we even want Rock vs Roman. But it had to be the right time.
This year was NOT the right time. We had watched Cody for 2 years climb up the mountain, and he had earned the right to finish his story and become WWE champion at Wrestlemania.
And we were not willing to sacrifice that amazing and incredible storybook ending; not even for the Rock.
Dave gets way to emotional when he feels Cody is not getting the star treatment Dave thinks he deserves. Dave got pissed about Roman going over at Mania 39, but it was the right call at the time. Cody had only been back for 6 months and he leaped frogged his way into a title match with Roman then. He needed at least a year to go through the trials and tribulations of a underdog babyface to set up his match with Roman at Mania 40. Roman actually was going to put Cody over at Mania 39 but Triple H and the brass knew that the sale to Endeavor was happening and made the call to keep the title on Roman, since he was and even in his absence, the face of the company. Now everybody is going ape shit wanting Roman to comeback and win the title but at this point in his career, Roman doesn't need a title to be relevant with the fans. Plus Roman coming back is about retribution with the Bloodline. It has nothing to do with Cody. Dave's really going to stroke out when Cody turns heel. Dave, you are not a shill, you're a mark.
I hate to say this but Rock kept bragging too much...
Doesn't make him wrong
Give Rock some credit. He was a major part of the story that build up to the best wrestlemania.
For the wrong reasons that he slithered into making a great situation for himself.
@@jonathonbrown2128 If it was truly for himself we would've had Rock vs Roman. These fans dont know what they truly want. Yes they cry for Cody and boo roman then now they crying for Roman again...
Exactly...to say The Rock didn't make the road to WM even more eventful would be ludacris. The Final Boss was tearing shit up and I loved it!
@@cruzanshaker fans want to see baby face Roman. Bad guy turned good guy is one of the oldest storylines in the book. This is nothing new
the best wrestlemania. what. are you smoking?
Bully is correct. The Rock made the call. He could have quite easily said "fuck the fans, Cody can finish his story at Summer Slam" but he didn't. Dave is just raging because it wasn't emphasised enough how much the fans influenced The Rocks decision.
Thank you🤦🏾♂️!! Gosh it's so simple
Cos he had no choice! The boos didn't appease his huge ego! 😂😂😂😂😂
Dave trying to put himself over and say "its the fans its the fans" cuz hes king cody crybaby. No lies told by the Rock in that documentary
He made the call that would've put Cody out of WM? You don't get credit for fixing the fuck up you created
@@OsamayaMommaIt doesn't matter if he made a mistake initially, he still made the decision to change it. It's simple.
Thank you Bully for using Logic and reason. Rock could have done whatever he wanted but he saw the bigger picture....I guess. IDGAF about the story 😂
Imagine getting worked up over a documentary!!
This guy is a kid
I didn't have any issues with the documentary. The Rock put himself into the match on Friday Night Smackdown. The fans live in the arena accepted it and you can watch the footage to see this. However the online reaction was the complete opposite. The fans online outright rejected Roman vs Rock (TH-cam, IG, Twitter, etc.) They also booed the match at the live events that weekend. So guess what by the following Thursday at the press conference they announced Roman vs Cody as the official WM main event. The issue was resolved in LESS than a week LOL. Now could you make the case that Rock should not have said a segment of fans didn't want it. But contrary to popular belief there are still casual fans who may not have known what was going on with Cody so they may have just known Rock (Attitude Era, Movies, etc.) Nonetheless Rock Hunter and the crew made the right decision and delivered the match the fans all wanted to see. Roman vs. Cody happened and Cody finished his story. Bully is correct in that if he was truly an egomaniac he would not have listened to the fans but he did. Regardless of how we got there we got to desired result and people still get upset. 🤣🤣
@Alonzo_R. plenty of people wanted rock and roman but the louder ones didn't
Finally someone with clarity
EXACTLY!! Geeshhh people🥴🤦🏾♂️. The story still was finished AND a few behind the scenes info was revealed. What's the issue lol???
PREACH...I knew quite a few folks who tuned into RAW simply because The Rock was back. They REALLY got a kick out his "Final Boss" persona. This was one of the greatest pivots ever. The Rock is still "must see" and those casual fans who haven't watched wrestling in years were tuning in. So I'm glad he made the pivot because it gave us The Final Boss.
I know. Cody cry babies act like they forgot about the pop the crowd gave when rock said he was gonna sit at the head of the table. I think the real problem was giving Cody the royal rumble victory pointing at Roman and then them saying nah rock is taking it. Had Cody lost rumble I don't think fans would have been as outraged.
Maybe I am just gullible but I believe The Rock if I am being honest. Everyones reactions seems legit especially Cody's frustration with the way things were heading and tbh Idc bc overall the WWE made the right call and Cody finished his story so I literally dont care one way or the other. Cody won and that is all that matters to me. The Rock said it was his decision bc IT WAS and what I mean is he could have just plowed ahead and done it anyway regardless which WWE has done for years! He said no we cant do it bc no one wants it. It was his choice. Thank GOD for Bully!!! Love you bro!
Seriously? Dave you’re just pissed because your mug never got featured on the documentary.
Did you even listen to what he was saying?
@@daltonmeister6062Saying or SCREAMING? 😆 Dave was rambling like a crazy man. I get it, Rock didn’t come off looking great, but it doesn’t matter. Cody got the WWE title, he finished his story, and we got what we wanted, so let it go, damn. Lol
Clowns always default to personal attacks… every time.
Yeah someone tell him to stop being disrespectful and calm down or I threaten to shut down his podcast
Bully rays reaction during David's rant is priceless. Lol😅
I was so surprised that they didn’t even mention that the video on TH-cam that got the most dislikes in wwe history
It’s very simple Rock vs Roman would have happened at WrestleMania 39 but Vince was still in control at the time. Once Vince got out of there, TKO took over, Rock got on the board and got ownership of his name, likeness, catch phrases, etc. that’s when he everything went into motion. People were asking for Rock vs Roman for years before Cody even came back to WWE. Cody finishing his story is not bigger than the bloodline story clearly because he’s still involved with the bloodline 😂.
It was big enough that the fans made the company pivot. 😊 As much as we like the Rock and have been entertained by the Bloodline story, we were not going to sacrifice Cody finishing the story when we had waited 2 years for its conclusion. It was too important, and we would not give it up this year, not even for The Rock. Or the Bloodline. 📕
@@Jeff_Pryceit only pivot because The Rock and HHH allowed it too. The Bloodline is still the main story and the same fans who cry at Roman being champ is asking for him to return
@@christian6455They allowed it to happen because if the fans booed the Rock-Roman match out of the building (and they would have), then Wrestlemania is a failure that year and that anger could translate into business stopping its hot streak. They pivoted because the public backlash against the new plan really gave them only two choices: change the match back or get booed out of existence.
@@Jeff_Pryce I seen wwe done worse they could had still done roman vs rock even if it got booed
17:08 man said fuck the business lmfaoooooo
The Rock made that mania great. Without him it would be mediocre. Haters gonna hate
Dave is known for being "The NO 1 Cody Crybaby" 😂😂😂
The fake anger is embarrassing. And yes it's fake anger because no grown man gets this angry about something that isn't actually serious.
They can think things are garbage, but no one gets angry about a documentary.
He’s unnecessarily angry. Feels awful personal. Old school word for this is behavior is “mark”.😂😂😂
It's a work. Rock is gonna use this when he returns to feud against cody
Nah he has a right
You're literally watching a review of a behind the scenes documentary of a wrestling event. That's about as "mark" as you can get
Was gonna say, Rock would have only held the belt for a month anyway before dropping it to Cody at Backlash
We are all marks for believing pro wrestling.... even the "smart" ones are not as mart as they think
Dave sounds hurt cause they didn't give him any credit.
im glad they didnt 😂
Siriusxm has over a dozen channels. A show about wrestling isn't even within the top ten. That's why Dave isn't given credit.
“There’s no chair! THERE’S NO CHAIR!!!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They reacted that way towards Rock after Cody won the Rumble. But when he came back and said he was going to sit at the head of the table. Everyone cheered and went crazy. What fucked up everything was Cody winning the Rumble and pointing at Roman.
Yea and cody did it consciously. it was not planned. he provoked everything.
@@StefaniaMilarather it was plan or not he should had NEVER WON THE RUMBLE. that was the first mistake I can't even be mad at him for going off script. He not the first and won't be the last
Christ dave, its just wrestling. No need to blow an artery
The documentary should've been called:
WrestleMania 40:
"That don't work for me, brother..."
The Rock = Hulk Hogan 2.0
😂😂😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
The funniest thing about the documentary was HHH’s comments to everything where he knew exactly what was going to happen with the fan backlash and accepted everything knowing he would end up exactly what he wanted to happen.
Paraphrasing- ‘we’ll go with this and see if the fans like it, but keep the other option open just in case’.
Crazy how hhh connects with the fans now. Villain turned Hero
He was a mastermind of the whole thing since he knew things would go back to the original plan but wanted to make the rock feel in control and make him think that he made the decision to change back the original plan 😂 👏
Dave.....its not that serious man....your getting mad over a story that was finished and now he has no story he is fluttering around he doesn't even defend the title every ppv....you are an example of what's wrong with wrestling fans.
say it again for the people in the back !!! 1000 percent i agree with you dave starting to become annoying
It was a glorified Rock PR statement
Just like everything he does, really. His head is shoved so far up his own ass, I don't think he really knows what's going on most of the time. Brian Gewirtz and the rest of his team just make sure that he believes the whole world is in love with him.
Daves leaned too much back into being a kid and forgetting the business aspect of this. Sheesh
hes a mark im tellin yall what i know hes worse than russo😂😂
18:03 Dave wasn’t tryna hear that shit 😅😂😂😂
First of all I’m a Rock fan who went to her first ever SmackDown in Dallas and I never booed The Rock. So idk why Dave is speaking for me lol
The whole Cody thing y’all saw it every Monday night on raw for the past 2 years. This documentary literally was about the pivot and why. It gave me a look behind the curtain at how it takes a lot of minds to put a story arc together. Y’all just want another reason to be mad at.
Same, love the Rock but also Roman and wanted to see Rock/Roman so bad!! Another big potential match that could easily be on that level of Undertaker/Sting that we never got. I just hope we didn't miss this chance also. Let's face it, no one is getting any younger lol!
I don't really care about all this, I'm just sad that I didn't see anything from Roman in the Documentary.
also I didn't want to see Cody win against Roman because I allready knew that Codys reign would be boring.
It's so damn boring, but we can't say that because we're, 'Roman/Bloodline Stans.'
@@rooyanblan5322 jup...
This!!!!!
The catchphrase was “FINISH the story”, not “kill the story.” Cody was definitely winning.
Cody beat the biggest heel in the company it was never gonna be interesting.
Only randy can help and that can last for 3 months if that and even after that is they gonna keep Orton a heel? (He more of a baby face because of his age kinda like Punk, fans seen them when they was kids and love them)
Wwe is building up solo but they done a terrible job (before 0-40 and haven't had a WM or moment in 2 years ) and fans are legit rejecting cody vs solo.
Who else cody gonna face ? Gunther? Who on the other show? KO? LMAO. Drew? Give me a break if this was months ago cody fans wouldn't care and treated drew like Shinsuke and bury him because of "online reaction" . And it so bad that they couldn't even book a new star with the MITB (Melo, LA Knight, andrade) gotta protect cody. While Raw is having the most interesting feuds.
No grown ass man should be acting like this guy is. Calm down. Calm down
•The pivot was planned all along
• The Rock didnt go over Hunter's head technically, the Rock is Hunter's boss
• Did people really think they was going to throw the Rock under the bus?
• I think most of what the Rock and others said in the documentary to be true.
• The pivot was a scheme that Hunter and Cody were in on the whole time. They had to let Nick, Rock, Ari, and Brian G. see it organically. Hunter knew the backlash they was set to get. Thats why he had Cody win the rumble.
Cody won because Punk was injured…
@@Dalehjun you're wrong on this. Watch the documentary. Around the 15:20 mark in that video, Hunter said he had to have Cody win the Rumble because if he doesn't, that would damage his character.
Dave is out of his fucking mind if he doesn’t think the rock significantly added to this years wrestlemania. Yeah, he’s got an ego, but he’s also way bigger than wrestling. I’m a lifelong wrestling fan, and a large part of that lifelong fandom was in secret. The Rock breaks through that.
Yep, the Rocks appearances on Raw and Smackdown had the highest ratings.
Wrestle Mania was sold out long before Rock got involved.
Sold out vs new eyes on the product are very different. Final boss the rock made wrestling hotter than its ever been. It's why shows now are getting sold out. Without the rock doing that business would have fell off again right after mania.
The Rock is 100% right the majority of fans which are casuals wanted Rock vs Roman and the fans who wanted Cody were the fans who watched every wrestling show the hardcore fans. And its absolutely was Rock decision to pivot even Triple H said that.
Dave is just a baby action as a grown up
Dude u need to get out more. The Rock was right about you... Cody crybaby!
straight up!!!
For some reason sirusxm won't let them in the studio.
I’m sorry but the Rock made the whole thing 10 x better and him coming back as the Final boss drew in fans like myself that haven’t watched wrestling for like 20 years. Plus he let Cody finish his story so what’s the problem…
The Rock's involvement definitely drew me in. I had no clue about any of the storylines (i.e. Cody finishing the story). I saw a clip of the "should the rock sit at the head of the table" and I was hooked again. It was Rock vs. Roman that initially drew me, but I was thoroughly impressed with the direction that was ultimately decided. I was a huge fan of pro wrestling from 1996-2006, then a casual fan for a few years, and haven't watched much since then.
thanks for being real and admitting people try to crap on the rock i literally saw youtubers who never watch wrestling watch the rock ig videos and react to them
According to people like Dave yall dont matter
BS
@rayzah449 It's as if Dave doesn't realize the Rock by himself is a draw. I came to see the Rock; I stayed for the Story. My only complaint about the documentary is that there's no mention of Jinder Mahal!
@@jimcheung3527 yes I’m tired of this narrative going around online of people acting like Cody is on the same level as the rock. The online community doesn’t speak for all wrestling fans and they don’t like to acknowledge “casuals”
No David. We wanted Roman vs Rock. We been wanting that match for years. and you gotta Thank Rock for getting Cody even more over than he was
Dave's a hard listen. If it weren't for Bubba I wouldn't bother listening to Busted Open.
Good for you
The sole purpose for this documentary was to make Dwayne look like the good guy
Only Cody fans are seeing issues with the Documentary. Just like Dave, they got what they wanted, but are still complaining.
A real example of a Cody Cry Baby
Dave the leader of the Cody Crybabies 😂
Dave is the biggest Cody crybaby in the world 😂😂😂😂😂
1. The documentary was called behind the curtain of WMXL, not “Cody Rhodes: finish the story”. He’ll have his own doc highlighting the win etc.
2. Rock not only changed his mind but he leaned into a new gimmick he carried that entire story on social media/TV and made it more interesting.
3. We should stop being so short sided and look at this for what it is, entertainment.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 EXACTLEEEEE
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 EXACTLEEEEE
Dave is a damn
Toys r us kid… cuz he doesn’t want to grow up 😂
facts plus tax
Dave GET OVER YOURSELF!!! BUTT HURT!!! Cody FINISHED his story!! QUIT CRYING!!!!!
😂thank you im glad its people like me thats burying this mark and its not just me ,hes starting to become hella annoying
@@antoinelebrane3348 Can't STAND him Bro. He doesn't want to get into a verbal spat with Dwayne! He stays HARD to try envoke a repsponse from The Rock! LOL
@@lovalikeb hes worse than dave meltzer and bryan alvarez and vince russo and i never thought i would ever say that
It may be unpopular, especially for this doofus, but Rock vs Roman was THE match to make. Cody winning the title for his dad is a nice story but it doesn’t push the business further, and it hasn’t since Wrestlemania. If anything Punk vs Drew, a side story to the world championship, is carrying us to Summerslam. Cody vs Solo will probably be the first match of the night unless Roman returns and that’s telling.
Dave makes me embarrassed for being a wrestling fan
Yeah, everyone sees wrestling fans as 'Dave' and all I can do is laugh.
His Brother does the same for traditional sports fans. The LaGreca brothers being annoying on the radio is passe now.
Lmaooo Dwayne really gaslighting Dave 😂
Again, Mark, AKA Bubba Ray, is the voice of a veteran wrestler. Dave, try listening to your co-host (Otherwise he might have to put you through a table...). You have it in for the Rock. Passion is good, but so is reason, business, etc. It seems that the Rock is being in character (Heel Rock) and also promoting the next match (Rock vs Roman). While the rock has an ego (all top pro wrestlers do), as a member of the TKO board, he is in the business of promoting the product. I love your passion but try to read between the lines. What is behind what you see? What are other layers that are being created?
In addition, if you listen to other interviews with the Rock, he honestly made a mistake and flatly admitted it. His thinking was to do Rock vs Roman a few years ago, but for scheduling reasons, it did not work out. For WrestleMania 40, his schedule was cleared, so he and Triple H thought it would be a good idea. The fans revolted, the Rock wisely pivoted, and we got WrestleMania 40. As it turned out, without the Rock being involved (think of all his social media posts and eyes he brought to his run). WrestleMania would not have done as well. So, Dave, have a seat, take a drink, and testify, brother!
As Mark said, many times, Vince did not listen to the crowd, and it backfired (i.e., WrestleMania 20, Brock vs Goldberg, Roman in 2015. Wrestling booking is complex, and as Dusty Rhodes said, if what you planned in your head works 70% in the ring, you are a great booker.
Having the Rock in TKO is a blessing for WWE. And that is the bottom line. :)
And, Dave, The Rock gave your podcast worldwide exposure!
@@Midot613Preach
hope dave realizes the rock let cody and his little crybabies have this one. next year cody will be opening match at mania🤣
@bb-gc2tx you're so mad lmao
Vince did listen to the fans and they still complained so why would he have kept listening to them?
Bully Ray trying to reason with Dave marking out of his goddamn mind with hatred for the Rock was a sight to behold. “Sit down, Dave!”
The thing about the documentary is that there is nothing there that makes me believe that the whole thing wasn’t planned from Day 1.
Thank you Bully! I don't see what the problem is with the documentary. Rock heard the fans and changed gears, he turned heel and didn't have to. Triple H even said that Rock reached out to him about the heel change first, so people are just being picky and hateful. (BTW, Dave and his passion for Cody has become nauseating. Not everything he says has to be about Cody)
This old guy has to be the biggest mark for Cody Rhodes I've ever seen. The Rock coming in and turning heel was the absolute best thing that could have happened to WWE at the time. Did he "Save" wrestling? No, but he sure as heck was the main reason they began selling out every week. The Rock made Cody's story 1000 times more interesting. Facts
We need the HHH CUT!
#ReleasetheHHHcut
This guy is not a Cody crybaby he wants to have Cody's babies
Lets get facts cody is worst babyface right now😂😂😂
Don’t watch it if you don’t like it 🤷♂️
Cody's fans were just more vocal, but there were ALOT of fans who wanted to see Rock vs Roman!
Dave forgets, the Rock was cheered by many people. There was a group that really wanted to see Roman vs. Rock. The only person that has hated on the Rock more is Brian Last. Both come across as whiny babies.
this guys toxic hatred for the rock is too much even bully ray looks fed up of hearing it, rocks final boss was great, cody post mania boring af, every chance legreca has he spits at the screen to bad mouth the rock they could have trucked through it like used to do all the rock changed his mind, he put out feelers when he asked sit at a booth etc crowd went nuts hell cody got boos himself in the vegas conference, legreca needs to stop trying to use his busted open platform to gather a hate mob against rock, even bully ray is like enough is enough now
9:37 Yoooo lmfao I started choking on my drink 🤣🤣🤣 I love Bully
I greatly enjoyed picking apart everything wrong with this “documentary” to my girlfriend who watched it with me. It was a fun time. WWE has a top notch production team that has often had to present revisionist history as fact.
This would have never happened if cody won at wrestlemania 39, so he didn't have to main event 40
dave is a rock hater it was a good documentary
facts just like brian last
Thank you Bully for being a level headed adult and not a yelling screaming pouting child when things don't go your way!
Dave is a mark. The documentary was never about Cody and the fans, or the main event iself, it was about the booking of the main event. Which is exactly what was shown and it did it's job.
Agree Roman also was push aside from the documentary
It also wasn’t about Rock and Seven Bucks production.
This is why I can't wait for Roman to come back he will be the biggest babyface overtaking Cody.
holy crap Dave, calm down.
This was a hard watch, usually love Busted Open but this was crazy over the top.
The rock gave us the most entertaining Wrestlemania build ever.
Dave needs take a step back on this one
I'm only back watching wrestling bc of The Rock. He brought the real hype back honestly
facts!!!!
Just cause you yell and scream it doesnt make you point your valid or correct bully has great points in the argument
They say 74 hours in the doc , the doc did what it was supposed to do they say multiple times in the doc about it shifting back to the fans but at the end of the day it's a work
It’s like the Rock is Dog the Bounty Hunter. Taking credit for catching fugitives he released in the first place 😂
Cody crybabies are why Cody Rhodes is a boring champ
The passion behind this is undeniable haha
That's because people hate The Rock because of his "ego". He turned heel and fixed his mess. What more do you want from the guy? He is not Hogan. Hogan would be WWE champion rn.
Still doesn't make sense why Cody won the Rumble. If the plan was for Rock to face Roman, why would you have Cody win and point to Roman from the ring. If Cody was planned to face Roman, then it's even more stupid to have Cody give up his championship match a few days later.
I wanted to see Rock vs Roman 🤷🏾♂️
Rock pretty much took the credit for the narrative and to mention ALL those who were involved!
Everybody didn't want Cody vs. Roman Round 2. Dave has this belief like the world wanted the rematch and it's not true. A good portion did and the other portion wanted Rock vs. Roman. Plus no matter what Dave said, The Rock gives the final approval when he is there. The Rock is the head man of WWE.
Triple H is to blame. He sabotaged it by having cody win the rumble. And cody made it worse by going into business for himself
I think it's time for Bully to fire Dave.
Dave is wrong I’m 100% with bubba, the rock even says “I was pissed off that the fans were mad”
