Cody was the biggest draw in the industry by far between 2022 and 2024, he had a legitimately nuclear run, attendance averages were either near or at record levels and he was consistently the biggest merch mover
Gaytch fumbled obscenely hard he should be killed

Roman Reigns only ever appeared like once a month to cut the same, tired, "AKNOWLEDGE ME" promo, and only ever wrestled every 3 months. You can't say people were buying tickets or tuning into see Roman if he's never on the show

People bought tickets expecting either Roman, Dwayne and, I'm not kidding, Sami Zayn and Bloodline shenanigans.
Cody was shoehorned into the the bloodline storyline and made WWE unwatchable.
Remember when Smackdown was must see with the bloodline? Now it's just CAWdy, and Smackdown hit no milly.

Because the fans were booing him every show and either he or Tony refused to go through with a heel turn.

He didn't need to be there, he elevated the entire roster by virtue of being champion. People suddenly cared about guys like sami zayn and jey uso because they happened to interact with roman once a month

I'm not even a fan of Roman, but he, along with the bloodline were the draw during that period, not Cody.

Roman had been doing his bloodline angle for two+ years before Cody returned
Business boomed when Cody did and he was around more frequently when uninjured
