Now that we're months removed from this allowing us to see what developments they had in store after the fact, was the outcome of this match justified or is it still bullshit?

The fact that the Bloodline storyline is still a massive draw means from a business perspective it was definitely the right call. In every other sense though, it is still utter bullshit.

Yes, it was. And the outcome was always the plan.

Hunter is never going to forgive Cody for smashing that throne, and he will never give Cody the title.

If Cody had to job then it should’ve been clean. Cody underestimating how ready he was for Roman because he was so focused on "the story", and subsequent building himself back up would've been better.

Cody has remained as over as he was going in and the rematch will do big business. If they do end up going with Cody/Roman II and build it right, it will be a better match with a better story with a bigger payoff. It really has to be WM40 though, Roman's title run has nothing left after the Cody rematch really.

I hated the decision at first but it was a legitimately good swerve. Everyone thought Cody was winning. Vince was all but gone and Roman seemed to be going to Hollywood. And Heyman was right. If Roman dropped the belt to Cody, then what? He gets a triumphant babyface tour for a few months and then it's back to "meh." The rematch at WM 40 will unquestionably the biggest match in WWE history because no one will know who's going to win.

He has to hold quite a bit past WM to break Hogan's record right? Then another five years to beat Bruno's. I really don't think they can keep the momentum going past WM next year. They have been trying to build some but they don't really have anyone left to step up into the main event.

I don't think it's possible to beat Bruno but I think they want him to beat Hogan

Cody got real momentum during the story and he's the best guy to dethrone Roman.

can WWE have its cake and eat it too? Delay the rematch til fall 2024?
It's possible but so so tough. I don't know if there's enough things to keep Cody distracted for another year

There likely won't be a big enough stage for Roman's defeat in fall 2024 anyway, so it will have to RR 2025 at the earliest. A whole other year and a half of the Bloodline? A whole other year and a half for the top champ barely being there? They might be able to make it work but Cody will be absolutely done by that point unless he gets another injury.

I see why they did what they did at WM39 but the Bloodline angle has jumped the shark and will run out of steam. Cody can't stay as over for a whole lot longer. If they hold it all off again so Roman can beat Hogan's record then they have an entire year to fill out and plan for, at least. I don't see how they can do it. Especially when Sami and Cody did great things for Roman last year into WM this year. How can they keep it going?
