I can respect your opinion as far as thinking Cody is amazing. I simply was pointing out I didn't agree with that viewpoint. Like I've said time and again, Cody has taken a bad situation and ran with it. I give him props for that, but at the same time, he could be progressing more. His mic work seems to be complacent, which is IMO holding him back from breaking through. It's a shame, considering he has had some really good matches on SD. My main comparison with Austin and Rock was stating if his mic work was up to par with those guys, he'd be champion by now. Unfortunately, it takes some guys longer to get to that level. Nothing wrong with that. It took Steve Austin wondering through WCW, ECW, and a few years in WWE before he progressed to an elite superstar. All I'm saying is it will take some major character development and change before I'd use the word amazing in the same sentence with Cody Rhodes. He is getting there, which is promising, but he seems to be complacent and letting his opportunities slip away. Once he gets the mic work down, I think in a few years he might actually reach that elite level....
