Wrestlemania main event is gonna be Cody (Royal Rumble Winner) vs Sami (shenanigans occur and he ends up in the match and Roman thinks he's actually in it to help him) vs Roman and Sami is gonna pin Cody and win the titles during the match, setting up the implosion of the Bloodline

The old vince mcmahon conundrum

Do we give it to the most talented, most deserving talent?
Or the prettiest person who we think we can force to be the star with 5 years of fans being underwhelmed and booing?
Or someone in-between?

Sami is the undisputed top talent in the company.
In ring, on the mic, as an actor, mind for the business..
He may actually be the single best talent in history.
Guys like this can organically get over and get the fans passionate as hell, like D Bry did.

Cody..? eh it seems too soon and too forced for him to win the rumble and beat roman.

Anyone else..? Nope, no good ideas i can see.

Dude come on, if you turn him face and give him 25 minute matches, he would look better than ever.

Besides who is his actual competition for best in the world?

Bryan maybe.
Then you have Joe, KO, Kenny, and Seth (in ring + on the mic)
All of these guys have pretty obvious limitations.

I'll repost this one theory I had
>Solo starts to distance himself away from the bloodline bit by bit
>Sami is the only one who is suspicious of him
>Talks to Roman about it
>"How dare you think so lowly of a member of the holy family? Have you forgotten your place?"
>Gets battered and treated like absolute shit for a few weeks, still expected to be their lapdog
>Solo is the only one who helps him back up
>Royal Rumble comes
>Sami is expected to help roman win
>Eliminates Roman instead
>Solo brings the rest of the family on the show to publicly disown Reigns and the Usos
>Usos turn on Roman during the WM main event
>Sami wins the titles
It could very well garner the most engaged audience they've had in years and years, rivaling 2013 Daniel Bryan, because people really do want to see the valiant, vulnerable underdog babyface finally defeat the biggest kayfabe enemy of wrestling and his tyrannical run. If Roman really is such a great heel, and if they really want him to be a true heel, then this is their chance to make it work. I really like Cody, and I do want to see him get the title, but he does not have as much momentum or storyline opportunity to get the crowd involved as involved as they are with Sami. I'd rather have an american hero Cody vs nazi remains Walter and build that up for a year.
>But he doesn't look the part!
Dusty, Foley, D-Bry, all didn't look so good, yet listen to the roar of the crowds during the peak of their runs. It's about making the character work. An Adonis type of physique would not fit for this storyline.

If WWE were actually high quality story writers they could come up with some great shit.

You could have the Rock get involved in the story, and have a pivitol moment where Jey Uso doesnt help Roman and the rst of the bloodline leaves him alone to fight Sami 1 on 1. Thus ending the bloodline and the title reign in a cathartic moment for the Usos who were bullied by reigns for years.

And now he's better. His peak was still 2014 NXT but Sami right now is pretty incomparable. The closest overall talent would probably be Jericho but given the reins he runs his shit into the ground as quickly as he makes it fun.

Also Gunther is in that conversation. His promos are good when you give him short ones that he delivers well and brutishly, and his sense of character is top-tier. He's also basically the best in the ring at his style bar Ishii.

The thing is that once you break it down, it's the logical conclusion to the story, and it's not so complicated to pull off either. You already have 5 hours of tv every week, with most of it being directionless filler. And this is about as old school booking as it gets. You end the heel's tyranny by establishing new hot babyfaces (emphasis on plural), therefore laying the grounds open for another heel to step up by being a despicable motherfucker to these loved popular figures, and so on continuing the cycle of gaining and giving heat.
I'm not so sure about getting the rock involved at this point, I'd rather have a legion of elders judge the egotistical tyrant who went too far.

Have Sami win the WWE championship off of him so he can have his feel-good moment. Universal title match is against Cody at 'mania. The bloodline batters Cody and starts dragging him towards the ring, but the Rock comes out. Rock and Roman have a stare down and the bloodline feels conflicted and doesn't intervene. Then the match continues and Cody wins. It also sets up Roman vs. Rock next year where Roman wagers control of the bloodline against Rock's career.

I would also put the WWE title back on Roman during the off-season so that the bloodline stuff doesn't feel past its prime from not being in the title scene for a whole year. Have him beat Drew for it at Summerslam and then hold it until the Rumble. The match with the Rock doesn't need the title to build it up.

not that anon but he makes a fair point , even if i don't fully agree with him. we know about zayn's shoot capabilities, but it doesn't really align with where he's been in kayfabe. it's been however many years of him being a jobber, so he's gonna need a major catalyst that sets him off. just give him enough fire or aggression and he'll be alright. remember, roman has been a strong but still cowardly heel all this time. he needed the cheating for every single match of his. they just have to tweak things correctly, but it is a genuine concern.

3. If anyone in the world can get the wrestling world excited in a matter of 2 or 3 matches as a face, its Sami, his in ring face work is spectacular like d Bry.

However, they would have do it quickly.
If they choose sami they should give him the face turn and get him over Before the rumble.

Sami has been booked as a comedy act for years. His NXT run is irrelevant because all the guys in NXT are small. Sami isn't short but he's not muscular either. I'd go so far as to call him scrawny, but he can get by due to his height. Roman is 50 lbs heavier and he looks it.

It doesn't matter how strong Sami or Roman are. What matters is how they look and how they've been presented.

This is not perfect and I'm sure thinking on it more I would change a lot but I think this would be an interesting route to go with it.

very good, putting over kev sami imperium and solo all at once. unfortunately all this hypothetical kino will only leave us with a serious case of blue balls once the actual storyline rolls around.

It sort of has to be Cody, no one else makes sense. He's beaten Kevin Owens 50 times, Drew has no heat on him, Sheamus has support but his time has passed, and Seth is too heelish to defeat the big bad.
Sami makes no sense whatsoever. He's been built as this chicken shit heel for ages, how is he supposed to have a meaningful win over the final boss? The biggest problem with Sami winning is that it would have to happen at WrestleMania in April - there's a Saudi show in May, and Sami can't attend those. They're not having a Saudi show without the world champ, least of all the new champ.

It's still 5 months away, I think the agreement is for another 4 or 5 years though. At the last show the crowd was chanting for Sami though so who knows, maybe they'll make an exception. There's always the possibility that he wouldn't go anyway, either safety concerns or ethical ones like KO, DB and Cena have.

It shouldve been Drew, made no sense for them to invest an entire year on him only to toss him to the side, He shouldve gone over Roman at Wales and then he could defend both titles retaining the Universal against Drew and dropping the WWE title to Cody

If they're considering the future and they put a shit ton of gas on the fire for it between now and Mania, Austin Theory is the obvious choice. It's also a shot across the bough at AEW in showing that WWE is also willing to put down Shield members to put over the young guys that will flagship their next generation.

If they're considering massive storyline kino (makes sense for WM Hollywood) and they're gonna put his inevitable tag kino moment on the backburner, Sami Zayn is the obvious choice. People have it right in that it would be a holy shit DBry blowout moment if Sami pulled it out over Roman at Mania. It would be an all-time defining moment in pro wrestling history (though a first win in Philly for WM40 would be iconic, as well, but good luck keeping Sami white hot for another year)

If they're gonna go the predictably bland and overall safe route, they put the belt on Cody, but he becomes the new überheel and some face takes the belt off him in generally underwhelming fashion.

Sami didn’t get over organically. He was nowhere for years after NXT and never drew a dime.

He was given a program with the number one act in the company. That’s the very antithesis of organically.

Always been a zero, and his melting body and rapidly disappearing hairline are recipes for the midcard. You’re a fatty who thinks “he’s like me” or a foreigner clearly.

This is just factually untrue. Sami had been popular for awhile. Just look at his Mania match with Steve-O, the crowd she that shit up.
Or when he was doing the whole conspiracy gimmick with his documentary, that shit was over too.
And his dance during Logan Paul's entrance like 3 years ago went viral.
Shit this whole Sami in the Bloodline thing wa supposed to last maybe a month tops but Sami got that shit over as fuck and got rewarded for it big time.
He's s great worker who understands the business, cope and seethe more.

Literally no one. His entire build. All this time, beating Taker, Brock, HHH at Mania, will be to put no one over. No one gets the rub, but the company. He will retire and they'll just give the belt to Sami who will lose it the first night to Kevin Ovens.
