>>13829156>But it makes no sense?It totally makes sense. Why have the match? Because Cody's gimmick is the classic babyface. The John Cena "overcome the odds", Hulk Hogan, "Hulking up with the power of Hulkamania" type of stuff. Cody wants to beat up the school bullies and he knows not standing up to a challenge or all of them makes him look like a punk. He said specifically "I have to take everything from you". That means Roman's title, his pride, his aura, and now his family. All the little enablers and thugs too. I know it isn't as compelling as looking at someone's boot tassels or what part of the thigh they hold onto to their opponent, but lots of people are enjoying it.
