Imagine telling someone 3 years ago that the freaking rock would get booed because of cody rhodes
It’s the millennial fanboys
Imagine telling someone that when Cody was Ziggy Stardust
@@djdarq6311As opposed to the grandpas who dont actually watch the product but still eat Rock’s meat from 20yrs ago. Im a millennial who grew up on the attitude era but the whole point of Wrestling is to evolve. The Babyface of now should be more over than the ones of yesteryear. Thats just common sense.
@@prestonpfeifferWhat's a millennial?
@@BUPMY1 you never learned how to perform a proper google search?
CM Punk instigating saying Cody should’ve punched The Rock had me in tears lol
Punk is so good on the mic. The only one on rocks level
I think CM Punk should be thrown into this mix too. It would be so cool not only to see him confront The Rock, but Roman too. And Punk would fit in the story. The Punk-Rock situation back then was the same exact situation as this one. But the difference was this time the main event changed and last time it didn't. The reason for that was because too many fans wanted Cody to main event. But if it wasn't for Punk's pipebomb and the aftermath, would that have happened (this many fans wanting Cody in the main event)? I don't think so... A CM Punk quote to an AEW wrestler back when AEW was still good and was trying to topple WWE- "Remember, those roads you traveled to get here, they were paved by me. This house that you built, it was constructed with lumber from trees that I chopped down...".. Since Roman is going to have The Rock in his corner, Cody should have Punk in his. That feud would be the perfect start to this new era..
Big E saying that Rock is a board member which means he’s technically Cody’s boss just turned on a light bulb in Punk’s head.
@@zhougongjin2704 it's defo coming my man. When Punk gets back from injury he can play into his history with all these guys especially Heyman
what really made the moment was the Rock in the background was still on stage and heard Punk, so he stopped and started yelling at Punk who probably thought Rock already walked off the stage. Totally one of those situations where everyone gets quiet and you realize the person you're shit talking is right behind you.
Brian's impression of Moxley had me dying. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
And then Jim did one too! I couldn't believe he had it in him!
@@B3Banddope
that's badass😂
It's corny af
Bro I came to the comments looking for someone to mention it 😭😭😭
"The number two table will have you now, loser bracket with the dummy in green over there" lmfao
Roman "Sufferin Succotash" Reigns
@@EmberwindTale So much better as a heel
So much better in general since that time as well.
Roman’s story is insecurities. Seth may look ridiculous but he pulls it off. Cody left wwe and did everything on his own. Rock really is the head of the table. The USOs are the ones providing for the family.
@@SaulAguilar.😂. You delusional little boy
@@EmberwindTaleOne of my cousins says the same thing(Suffering Succotash) about Cody because he talks with a lisp! He says “Daffy Duck” can’t be the champion 😂
Seth was just standing on stage like a fan with VIP access
with a backstage pass
He looked like a fan cosplaying Seth Rollins with a replica belt 😂😂😂😂😂
This was my only negative is they make Seth look like a clown in all of this, well more than he already does. I do hope that changes and we get him vs DM Hunk, at Mania.
Seth was dressed as Elton John looked like a guy dragged from pride parade.
That's exactly what happens, when his stupid ass song isn't playing or being hummed by losers who never been hummed before themselves.
Ha.
Triple H really signed Kayfabe to a new contract 🙏
They really have done the impossible and it's great...Vince killed it, and 2 generations later, Triple H resurrected it. The Internet broke itself screaming about this whole thing for a couple of weeks and I was thinking "wow, they really haven't ever seen a work before in real time" Great piece of business I'd say.
I have been thinking this for a while now.
I think he was a free agent he hasn’t been around in a while lol
@@samspurgeon4222the smarks are always the easiest to work because they think they know the most
And why the anger about getting worked?! This is exactly what we should all want them to be able to pull off! To work us and keep us guessing and wondering. This is great!
The visual of Roman, someone who has been portrayed as dominant and stronger than anyone in years..looking like Dwayne’s little brother when shit went down, was amazing.
It's just the rock is a mega star who everyone knows of. Roman is great but some kids don't even know who he is.
he is the younger cousin after all
Also, the physical size difference was really apparent, and Roman is a massive guy..
Don't know how he's dominant, he can't win without interference in EVERY MATCH.
Yeah dunno how that aspect is gonna be repaired. Rock V Roman has already happened and Roman is his bitch. Rock is so dominant over Roman you don't need a match to see who's boss.
This was absolutely sensational from beginning to end. It felt like a big UFC event with a WWE Twist. Felt real. Lines felt properly blurred. Kayfabe resuscitated, at least for a short time. What a beautiful worked shoot.
Dana white admits wwe does everything better. Called Vince a savage
"Worked shoot" what it's called a promo
i evoke the term in referring to the feeling of it being so - it was realistic and convincing - simple as that really @@firstroundboxing7649
CM Punks commentary on this was gold
The way rock was staring at him when punk was talking makes me want to see them one more time
Especially when he was shit talking Rock whilst Rock was standing on the stage glaring at him 😆
@omoladeadegbayibi4459 we will see at least another promo between the two I feel if not a full programme.
Rock was remembering when Punk told him on live tv “Your arms are too short to box with God” 😭🔥
To bad Phil wont get in shape
From what I get of Cody storming out with no music saying this is BS was telling you that he had a change of mind hearing Rock and Roman and feeling like Rocky manipulated him when he was seeking council for his own agenda
Ding! Ding!
Brilliant reasoning.
Cody definitely needs to cover for that on television and tie that all up. even if it is well Rock made one deal with me and he went back on it so I changed my mind.
Exactly! We’re meant to think he’d been leaned on by The Rock and “the board” or whoever to let The Rock have Roman Reigns, and he should pick Seth instead. But now he’s stood up to them. But l think it will turn out to be a ruse by Cody and The Rock to fool Roman, and Rock will turn on Roman at WrestleMania to ensure Cody wins.
Makes sense considering a few moments later he reiterated that he wants to face Roman.
“Rocky Rocky” “Some fucking drunk” 🤣🤣
They forgot to mention the line Cody had about "What does it matter who's the head of the table, when neither one of you have been doing any of the cooking for two years?"
Overall, this whole thing was fantastic. Kinda felt like their version of a UFC press conference with two of their top guys. And CM Punk definitely did steal the show at the end 😂😂
Cody read them for FILTH💅
Why would the cook be sitting at the head of the table he's cooking for?
To be fair, the cooking line is pretty much internet slang for young people. And Cornette and company are waaaaay past that.
@@Miguel-mp7uzsit down boomer
Rock read the room like he did in X8
Naw. The tree says otherwise. It's how they wind up rock/roman next year. Rock tried to protect roman from cody. Cody was falling for it. Cody can take the belt but not the tribe from.roman.
Cody was hoping rock would take the tribe from roman. Turns out roman is cool with that coz it protects him from cody
Agreed
And he was cheered by the end of that match
nope -- he knows people know about his & the rest of the "entertainment" industries BS. You think this shit with McMahon is just going to end here? Oh no....we haven't seen anything yet. This is not just in wrestling. I would bet Cornette could tell you that one.... probably why he stayed on the outside after a certain point.
Dark side of the ring is barely a drop in the bucket of what has gone down with the scandals in just "wrestling" let alone the entire entertainment industry. All anyone needs to do is look at all the Freemasons involved in wrestling, especially around the Benoit "murder/suicide".
@ScottBeck79 🤫 you're speaking too many facts ... But your right
Rock and Roman look better on the same side
Because they are the only stars there. Definitely not MidCardCodyno.
Lol, at this point pretending Rhodes isn't over is a serious cope.
@MattyPeq
@@MoxyOhRight? Like if you don’t like the guy then okay cool but to willfully ignore that he’s absolutely the most over baby face they have is crazy 😂
@@MattyPeqhaha
@@MattyPeqYou’re funny. 🤣
CM Punk's whole commentary: "Something, something, somethings...punch him in the face!". 😂 Loved it.
CM Punk never liked The Rock. He has always been jealous of him.
That would be funny if we didn't all see Cm Punk fight before and have proof that he's all mouth
@@Brook11223 That’s not accurate at all. 😂 Punk has said in multiple interviews that he and Rock are cool and that he enjoyed working with him. Rock even has his cell phone number and called him years ago in the middle of a Raw taping in the middle of the ring. So there’s no animosity there, and if there ever was, it’s not there anymore.
@@Jeff_Pryce Okay lol. Oh the cell phone thing I remember because it was during the making of Fighting with the Family I think.
“I’m only here so CM Punk doesn’t get fined” - Big E
By the way, this is not Hollywood Rock, this is Board of Director Rock...
His best part to date. He's a natural. Cos he doesn't like being booed! Duanes always been about Duanes brand and fuck everybody else. He also got a lot of boos too!
Office Rock.
@@maggielusk6833I heard Cody sucks chants too
CORPORATE ROCK@@maraviyoso8473
"IF YA SMEEEEEELLLLLLL, what the board......is.......voting!!"
When did ever a WWE press conference has advanced more storylines than a PPV or house show? Never.
Rock turning heel, siding with family, slapping Cody, dropping F bombs. The promos and vibe felt so surreal and unreal. The fact is fans have more questions than answers makes the storyline more compelling, intriguing and absolutely unpredictable. Storytelleing at its best. WWE has gained more momentum with a press conference than any promotion did with a PPV.
WWE continues to be on fire and proving why they are the number 1 company in the business... Meanwhile Tony has a "Big ANNOUNCEMENT" of making a show all about the flavor of the week. BOTCH TIME Mercedes Mones, the cancerous Diva.
You're lookin at 83 weeks revisited, y'all
Vince is gone. No more PG WWE.
Mike Tyson, DX, and Austin come to mind.
@@matthewhostetter8974that Dynamite will draw only 905,000 mark my words
It makes me happy that jim finds such joy in a segment in modern wrestling.....
Thats when you know its hit all the marks fort every type of fan.. we're hearing some of the best promos in years. everyone who's ever been a fan needs to see these.
I just KNEW Corny would get sidetracked by the family tree and that's exactly what happened lmao.
His ADD is a mf 😂
This whole thing was one of the most unique and entertaining things ive ever seen in wrestling.
Punks live mic commentary with The Rock and Reigns listening to it was icing on the cake. So great.
Rock in the background looking over was hilarious
The more Brian does the Plumber Moxley impression, the more I think he sounds like Roz from Monsters Inc. 😂
WAZOWSKIIIII
Always watching...

@DreadPages you sure? What's it called. Would love to check it out
@johnjones8888 He also sent aid ma’am. Run along now.
@@wilcee238They really be trying hard with these *"Got ya"* moments.. 😂😂
I loved the way that the managers edged inwards as the tension rose, it's the little details like that which added to the segment.
WWE leaning into the UFC style press conference stuff is great. For the first time in years - I have no idea what the road to wrestlemania looks like, it’s chaotic and I love it!
Tell me about it.
Triple H is the man. I almost wish he was doing the booking sooner. He would have turned Cena heel and back at the right times. Roman's heel turn made WWE bigger than ever, so it's proof that your top guy can be a heel and the program can still be good AND profitable.
@@B3BandTriple H really isn’t that good of a booker and tbh this is more so Rocks and Brian Gewirtz creative then it is Triple H
@@B3BandTbh I hope Triple H gets let go soon because of his involvement in the Vince lawsuit and someone better takes over creative
None of this is from Bugeye Gerwitz. He’s too busy rehashing his old comedy bits for the Rock to trot out like he’s Dan Snyder trotting out the corpse of Sean Taylor
Jim sarcastically calling something “Dope” is so funny
1994 it was popular
@pbsimmons2303 which is also the year Jim was last relevant. I'm joking I'm joking
@@aic8001 tbf it probably was one of the last years Jim attempted to keep up with the Youth Culture
It was very noticeable how much bigger the rock compared to everyone physically and socially
Hollywood doesn't drug test, but WWE does.
Wrong, obviously plenty on the roster are on gear lmao@@B3Band
So a narcissist...
@@pendafen7405 like all great wrestlers are
Even made Roman look small in comparison
Time to bring Dustin Rhodes back for Wrestlemania season. Family vs Family
Still under contract atm and if not 90 days..
aw I miss Goldie
One of the best segments since the Attitude era
Easily one of the best. 💯
Thanks to rock and Roman
@@pleaseshutup7053Rock is amazing. All his haters changed tune in less than a week
No
@@pleaseshutup7053and Triple H
it was so nice of The Rock to finally show up, not sure who that DwAyNe guy was
Cody roasting the rock was gold
This was some of the best stuff I’ve seen in years. Someone remembered “personal issues draw money”.
Great seeing the debut of Joe Uso
😂👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
"Even though there was no press conferring" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
One thing about the Rock, -hes never been afraid to turn heel or put someone over. (He even turned heal with Hogan in the middle of the match) i respect how humble he is as far as giving to the business.
The Rock...humble? Johnny steroids? Are you on crack?
Man is literally the most humble star they've had, especially during his prime. Always putting others over in his prime
@@JewetyLet these fools know!! 3 wrestlers won their first world championships by beating The Rock
@@Jewety The Rock never once won the title at Mania. The main event of WM 2000 by rights should've been Rock vs. Triple H, with Rock beating him for the belt.
@@clusterflick6333 I agree 100%. No way it should have been a 4 way elimination match. Now that I think about it, I don't think Rock ever really won clean in those title matches against other Maineventers whether he was heel or face.
When the crowd started to "What" the Rock i expected him to say
"It doesn't matter WHAT you think!"
Moxley watching this like “that’s bad ass!”
Just like Rocky 3
Who else reads it with Brian Last voice 😂
Moxley was at the bloodbank making a withdrawal during this
that's fuckin dope
Moxley would have bladed at press conference
An amazing "piece of business" as they say. Some of the best stuff I've ever seen. Rock & Roman are a MONEY PARING!
They left Zilla Fatu off the list. He's Umaga's son. To be fair, he's only in his first year of wrestling.
I think they just copied the chart off Wikipedia.
He's been in Booker T's school grinding. He looked good in the one match I saw.
Was Jacob Fatu on the list?
Did I miss Ming on the list?
They left off a few and if they're doing the Bloodline honestly a few would be considered on the outs. So I mean I'd probably bring Jacob in against the Bloodline that way to play off the longer road he took and him earning it on his own.
Though Zila's a hard gauge, speculation would be he's signed already, so they're possibly trying not to spoil a debut.
I think they pretty much addressed Cody's initially giving up his WrestleMania spot on the SmackDown the next day with Triple H's promo, where he said The Rock does not have any sort of power regardless of whatever seat he holds in TKO. They might have to spell this out for everyone as the story progresses, but the reason why Cody almost gave up his spot is because Rock falsely pulled a powerplay him.
Jimmy Snuka was on that family tree diagram, they didn't have him connected to anyone, it was just like off to the side lol
He's a branch that blew off into the neighbors yard lol
He had a link to the rest of the tree, but he murdered it
@@B3BandOhhh nooo…
😂
He was married to Peter Maivia’s niece Sharon, who is Tamina & Deuce’s parents
He married into the family
This was the best thing I've seen. Seemed as real as it could be with big stars and grown adult men. They knocked it out of the park.
It was kayfabe though
@@unknownkingdomThanks Sherlock.
@@whatsoperadoc7050 the OP thought it was real
@@unknownkingdomread the comment again, he didn't think it was real. He said as real as they could make it seem
Smh
What really stood out was when cody said the line about their grandfathers, roman was rattled and knew cody was right while rock went full darkside.
Yeh, they tryna runs games to dodge cody. Rather than fight like a man. This is new level outside interference to keep the belt. Cody at first got tricked that rock would take the tribe from roman. And rock did. But roman is cool with that coz it protects him from cody.
1 situatuon roman is putting both on the line. The other he is sacrificing one to save the other.
After cody takes the title roman eventually challenges rock..its.not rock challenging roman
@@Chayliss galaxy brain
@@Chayliss🤡
Finally an intelligent person yeah it was always the bloodline story not cody story and the bloodline story now is entering a new chapter with the rock in it Cody is just there to build up rock vs roman and Cody will lose again to roman@@chuckles9767
That's a fantastic point and it hints that the Rock is even worse than Roman which could lay the groundwork for their match maybe at next years Mania. It seems crazy to imagine it and would have sounded ridiculous to say it even a month ago, but maybe when that match eventually comes it's a babyface Roman having learned the error of his ways against a crazed tyrant Rock. Maybe the Tribal Chief becomes the Tribal Rebel or Tribal Avenger.
Punk was the real MVP
"Where were you all in 2013?"
There was one guy near the crowd mic who kept pushing the damn What chants throughout the entire segment.😑
Tony Kahn was in the corner in the fetal position fearing for his life
And so were the rock haters
@@pleaseshutup7053You mean Brian Last?
@@burntvirtue yes just noticed how much less he talks this video
I swe this upturn as a direct response to the recent successes of AEW. WwE has to change their formula
Nah he was probably acting it out with their action figures afterwards
The Rock slapped the Last into Brian Last
The Rock slapped the Meltzer back into Dave Meltzer and slapped the Thompson back into Conrad Thompson
Brian really is a mark when it comes to blind hatred of The Rock.
Not really. Brian Last was hating on the face Rock that did the segments with Theory and Mahal. That could not have continued for any length of time. Last does seem to dislike Rock personally, but his criticisms of those 2 segments were valid if Rock was going to continue going forward like that.
@@kbuselmeier69 At least Jinder Mahal got some offense in against the Rock unlike Eric Rowan who looked like complete fool at WrestleMania 32.
@@Shiny101 He's a mark in every way. Every conceivable way.
Don't get it confused just because he's Jim Cornette's pencil neck geek sidekick.
I loved Seth talking to Roman "I've beaten you every time!" as they pulled him backstage.
This has to be the best pivot I’ve ever seen. Absolutely incredible.
Really? I guess if you don't really look at it much..... Because seriously all cody did was mention the name in a non offensive manner of his grandfather. His grandfather is of no blood relation to roman reigns..... Suddenly he forgot 4 days before when he was standing face to face with roman and they became best friends in that one second? Don't get me wrong. It's better than having the rock in a match..... But the way they got there makes absolutely no sense.
@@johnjones8888you're wrong. It was the best pivot ever
@@icemanauz How am I wrong if they needed to pivot in the first place?
Jacob Fatu got a spot on the tree is there some foreshadowing here?
Honestly I'm crossing my fingers to see Fatu and Tama Tonga even more than Okada.
I realy hope the get him
A family member being on a family tree? Say it aint so. They already used the new rookie bloodline member story arc on Solo. Doing it again with some even more green like Jacob is low IQ. If any new bloodline members show up, it should be the elders who are a higher rank than The Rock.
@@georgealvarez1195 y'know he's... *not* more green than Solo at all, right?
🤞
The way Rock was looking at CM Punk in the background in the end when Punk was talking smack to the Rock all night popped me LMFAOOOO
Brian Last doing his Moxley voice and bragging about going face to face with Hechicherro is hilarious 😂
Rock was like the Jersey Shore South Park. 'You tawkin bout my family?
Couldn't wait for Jim to talk about it...
"Know your role and shut your mouth" - The Rock
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL!
These days, just spitting that out makes the Rock gasp for air. He looks like he’s about to have a heart attack now. Gets blown up cutting a promo!! Even Ultimate Warrior never got that gassed.
I love the lady that was off camera saying “Your on TV!” right after Rock dropped the F-bomb.

Yep, it should've been on a Raw or SD.
Abit of a Return to Hollywood ROCK 21 years Ago
No Corporate Crock.
And I am here for it!
BLOODLINE ROCK
Board of Directors rock/bloodline rock is going to be 🔥 storytelling
Jacob Fatu & Lance Anoa’i were on the tree, which surprised me, so I figured the tree was accurate just based on that
Even while Ambrose was in WWE they already figured he ain't up to the task. Seth vs Triple H and Roman vs Undertaker were on the same mania card that Ambrose was in the pre-show for
It wouldn't have been hard to miss. You know he would have been suggesting all kinds of stupid shit for his matches, which he has then gone on to reveal at AEW.
Jon wanted to be a wrestler, not necessarily a top world professional one. He genuinely found a level of happiness and personal fulfilment breaking lighttubes and falling on thumbtacks in someone's back garden. And that's ok.
🙄
😂@@pendafen7405
You gotta give it to all involved for quickly turning this from a disaster into truly brilliant angle
give them credit for a non existent issue that online marks created themselves? LOL thats where we are at now?
@@georgealvarez1195yes, because there was a creative issue that needed to be corrected to begin with.
@@georgealvarez1195when the online marks are fans then yeah.they listen to the fans
You got worked but you refuse to admit it
Come on mate, this was exactly what they’ve planned from the start! The idea that they panicked and somehow made ALL THIS up in a couple of days, just because some fans got enraged on the internet, like some fans do all the time, is just ridiculous. This is a phoney heel turn by The Rock in collusion with Cody Rhodes, to fool Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman, and take down the Bloodline at WrestleMania.
Best wrestling segment I've seen in a very very long time. It actually felt like wrestling again. Not just any wrestling but the greatest. It's funny how every time WWE produces segments like this they involve Cody.
AEW really dropped the ball with Cody
The PowerPoint was hilarious and dope as hell
@@christianpaul-cp6746I think they probably wanted to keep him but Cody didn't care lol
Involves Cody? The Rock part of the greatest Era of all time. Don't forget that
@@demonsuckafucka6828Cody left aew because of 2 things, he didn’t like where the company was heading with the young bucks and Tony. And they wouldn’t offer him a fair amount of money even though he was a founding EVP. Similar situation happened with Aj styles and Dixie Carter in TNA
You got to hand it to WWE more specifically Hunter. Shit was in a tail spin and they pulled it out in spectacular fashion.
Yeah but how long that gonna last ..... Obviously....truth always comes out. You can change the picture but it's still being put into the same frame.
@@missklassikiya if the frame is Cody beating Roman, I don't give a damn what picture I see. I don't think Rock wanted to be booed as a face. That's a bad image. Wrestling or otherwise. Rock booed as a heel, well the optics on that can be spun into him being good at what he does. As long as Roman drops the title to Cody at Mania I'm happy.
Hhh had cody lose to Roman last year. So he was never the answer. All they had to do was put Cody over last year. They had Cody win Rumble again and they tried Rock vs Roman afterwards. Fans rebelled afterwards and Rock knew. So he went heel. Rock has always made sense in his presentation..thats how the pivot happened.
I remember hearing Big E mentioning building a tag match and I thought he probably wasn’t supposed to be saying that 😂😂
Heyman saying the story with the bloodline was only in the third inning was right. It wasn't a prediction, it was a spoiler.
Ha.
He definitely knew what he was talking about!
God, the Plumber Voice kills me!!
This was the most interesting amazing thing I’ve seen in wrestling in over 20 years. It feels like a new era is about to start.
A friend of mine used to be neighbours with one of the Rock's uncles, on his dads side. Mervyn Bowles. Lived in Toronto, just a few blocks from Yorkdale Plaza.
This press conference was cinema

TH-cam interrupted this video to show me an aew ad and I couldn't stop laughing 😂
Tony's gotta look for an audience somewhere, they sure as hell aren't in the buildings.
Time stamp?
I'm sure it was 'great'.
Consider yourself lucky; all I get is a guy with no testosterone and on the verge of crying while talking about dog food.
This here is the review I've been waiting for!
They've talked about the blood brothers thing for decades, so I'm kinda shocked Jim and Brain never even heard of it
0:27 What are you going to do when the PLUMBER bails out on you😮😂😂😂😂😂
The easiest way to fix that mess was simplicity. And it's working.
There was no mess you got worked
@pleaseshutup7053 nah kid, they buggered it up and had to pivot big time, if it was planned the Cody line about finishing the story later wouldn't be out there as a loose end.

Been waiting for this!!!
Another slappin episode from The Drive-Thru!
Everything was great loved the commentary
People in the know knew Rock's grandfather and Afa and Sika grandfather were Blood Brothers. I can't believe Corny and Brian didn't know.
They get all their information from dirt sheets.
Exactly, lol I thought this was common knowledge because this was thing from the 2000s
Best podcast in history of pro wrestling, no bullshit just what they see .
This made me go from not caring about the mania main event to being insanely excited to see what happens, and that’s a good thing. This made alot of people change their mind and get excited, this was genuinely excellent business. So different, so real, so refreshing and it’s just adding to the realness they want and will make Cody a bigger star going into mania this time
That blood oath thing is true. It's a wild story.
I'd love to hear Corny take a dive into the history of the Wild Samoans and "High Chief" Peter Miavia.
The thumbnail artwork for this clip is epically hilarious.
After rock was done yelling at triple h to fix it, Roman looked at him and said your lucky were here, triple h said you are too.
Is that what it was?
I thought it was "you're lucky you don't fight anymore" due to HHH's retirement
@@spsawyer22your lucky your ill is what i thought he said, and Hunter said your lucky too
@@DarkLordofTheSith69 yeah the look on HHH's face was "I want to kill both of you but I can't"
This was everything, it was amazing. We got Rocky where he belongs, a bastard! Cody standing up and solidifying his commitment to finishing the story. We got a showcase of someone, hopefully HHH listening to fans and course correcting, giving us reasons to KEEP investment in the product rather than just give up because there is no point. We got Big E & Punk, being entertaining as heck and Punk looked so damn happy! Though that might just be because it's hard to be anything but, with E around.
This was how you build a main event, using Rock's celebrity and legacy in the business, to draw in outsiders and show them "this is the big thing you need to pay attention to" It did so much for Cody, I can't wait to see the fan reaction come Tuesday for me.
Edit: I don't like all the talk of the "tag match night 1" Cody and Roman should never be in a match together until it's time to fight for that belt. Night 1 tag match won't kill the heat for it, but it will effect it heavily unless they don't ever touch during it. Save the tag match for post mania, use it to fuel the rivalry between Rock and Roman, and have them explode and have their BIG TIME main event, at Summerslam. They want that to be a second Wrestlemania, that's the match to show it.
Brian's Moxley impression kills me dead every fckin time 😂
the rock is business
The Rock on the board with HHH running the promotion opens all kinds of storyline possibilities... They have a long history of backstage heat that can feed into the angle
Hhh needs to stay away from tv storyline after that abysmal authority run
Backstage heat?
@@pleaseshutup7053The Authority was great. I miss it.
@@linkvagar2336it was a long time ago but back when they were carrying titles.
Rock kicks off hhh and then hhh comes back. Kinda like Donald trump vs Vince at wm 23
Jim Cornette as an Oscar😂, Whoever is doin these cover arts is killin it lol 🔥!!
It's me. Thank you very much 😊
@@aic8001 No problem:), They do make me laugh 😂!!
4:40 Very glad Brian said this about the whole segment. Great point 👍
Rocky slapped the Star Dust out of Cody! Yikes! 😮
Eventually Cody is going to end up slapping the Flex Kavana right back into Rock 😂😂
Must've been hanging out with Will Smith.
✨😂✨💯
We have been waiting for this !!
Triple H is smart enough to realize that we can make alot of money off this we can turn Rock heel and make Cody a massive babyface.... even more then he already was.
Wrong...this was planned out a long time ago
Jim…you glossed over the reason that Cody went off was that Roman disrespected Dusty and called him irrelevant…that pissed Cody off…
