>>14287140>He vetoed it the first time he fought Cody because he knew Vince would overrule Hunter.>Second time around, there was no Vince and the negative response to Cody getting fucked over by the Rock waltzing in (as Roman was forced to beg Rock to come back as it was the only way to get out of jobbing to Cody was to do the "shit or get off the pot" thing with delivering Rock to face him after dangling it over everyone's head or else drop the belt) and stealing Cody's rematch created such a shit show of backlash, that Rock blinked and agreed to step aside and basically told Roman, point blank that he got outplayed and that the jig was up. He was going to have to drop the belt to Cody AND lose what was promised to him by Vince (basically beating Hogan and Bruno's record for holding the title the longest) because Hunter had outplayed the Coconut Family.>Note that Roman even tried to float no-showing the PPV by having shit about his "cancer" leak to the press but Rock forced him to go through with the jobbing, on the basis that it might hurt now, but that if they give Hunter and Cody enough rope, Rock can hang both of them from the nearest tree and Roman can return a conquering hero in time for Raw debuting on Netflix, where they will be able to hide any sort of backlash from a Roman Reigns restoration due to how Netflix operates and how they can get away with hiding their viewership numbers.Rock is going to save us just give it some time bros
