What the fuck did people actually expect? To me, the obvious choices are were Seth Rollins for Brock and Drew McIntyre for Roman. Neither of those things happened, but that’s what logic would dictate, right?
Why do people think Vince McMahon is going to sign Cody Rhodes — basically plucking him from obscurity — and reward him for going rogue and trying to establish an entity that could cut into WWE’s profit margins if it were actually effective? Why would he do that?
If Cody was scheduled to come back — and the fame might be worth it to a fame hound — he is going to be working his ass off to prove he belongs. He isn’t going to be handed a World Title match and be presented as a bigger deal in WWE than he was in his glorified indy. Why would Vince put them over like that? This guy no-sold WCW when he owned it. Now you expect him to make a TV Champion from a show that can’t even scratch 1 million viewers each week a bigger deal than he was even before he left WWE last time?
When Cody wrestles The Miz, I’d actually be expecting Miz to be winning. Because he’s the guy who puts his head down, shows up early, leaves late, doesn’t step out of line (in their mind) and has a reality TV show that is actually over. Cody has to catch up.
