I liked him from way back to the Rhodes Scholars days, even more so later with his Shield feud. When he became stardust I was a little sad but had hope he would come back with his old self.
After he left I genuinely didn't know what he was doing until he started the mudshow, and he got me to watch their first couple episodes. I eventually lost interest, and next thing you know it's 2022 and there's rumors of his WM return. Saw it live on the cock (peacock) and became a literal mark.
I only managed to stick around for 2 weeks after his injury, but I'll be watching weekly now that he's back until he kills the tribal queef.
tl:dr - I just want to see him win the title and have his moment, because I think he earned it.

I believe the guy is low key a psychopath. Ever since he debuted following Bob Holly around, he does this strange facial ticks and would do that strange smile and then instant serious face shit, he did it at the Rumble too so he still has it.

I like the idea of him being this guy who tries to hide what he is, and it sometimes seeps out, tries to appreciate the fans but secretly loathes them and this industry. The last promo he did on AEW where people were shitting on him and he said he wasn't going to turn heel, the one thing people wanted, because of the people. Now he's going to take the Roman reign away, instead of Sami and people are shitting on him again for it.

The more people hate him the more I enjoy it.

The thing that sticks out about Cody with me are the stories Xavier Woods have of him due to growing up in the same area
>Woods is an amateur wrestler at high school
>rumour is going around that Dusty Rhodes kid is at the rival school, also an amateur wrestler
>Woods goes up 2 weight classes and runs through opponents just to get a match with Cody
>when they meet, Cody wins 2-1 in a very close match

>some months later, Woods and friends are meeting up with a girl he had a crush on but changed schools to go to Cody's school
>Woods is happy he's getting a chance to hang out with her again
>unfortunately Cody and his friends are at the bowling alley too with the girl
>the girl tries to introduce Woods to Cody
>Cody just says "ugh, I know him. I beat that kid" and then immediately bowls a perfect strike
>Wood's crush kisses Cody right there in front of him, and that's how Woods finds out Cody is dating his crush
>Cody admits that this all did happen, but he only got kissed for "bravely standing up to Woods who clearly went there to bully him" and thought "Woods looked terrifying because he came in wearing a leather coat and chain"

>as adults, Woods joins TNA
>Cody decides to reach out to mutual friends to get Woods' number and send him a text to congratulate him and say that he looked forward to Woods working for the WWE in the future
>Woods texts Cody back thanking him
>Cody never responds

Though both of those are former World Champions so I guess it's not so weird if he gets one run.
Really, after Jinder, you can slap the world title on anyone and I would just shrug and accept it now. Go ahead, slap it on Angelo Dawkins, why not, who cares?

Cody is one of the most genuine guys out there. He wears his heart on his sleeve. It feels like someone who loves this business a lot. Like someone fake wouldn't try to stay after a show with the fans like he does where security has to boot him off. Or want to keep talking with the press. It's just that people this days are so cynic that they can't imagine how could someone be like that and think he is faking it.

Well, you gotta love the Codemeister. I was a fan when I got back into wrestling and he was with his family against The Shield. I enjoyed the hell out of Stardust. I was impressed that when he was out of WWE that he lowered his booking rate so he could actually wrestle instead of pulling a Ryback. He could always build a match even though the match itself wouldn't deliver. Then he learned his overblown formula that would at least be entertaining in how over the top it was. Sure he shat up some New Japan cards but that Being the Elite shit was cancer for everyone involved. Everyone. Then around the Dustin match he actually put it together and could have truly interesting matches. It was a model to what people should be doing when they're out of WWE. Immense respect for the man and I just think he's a weird, funny guy that can put on a star presence.

He’s a self made man. Just when everyone wrote him off as a jobber he went out and completely reinvented himself, going so far as to create his own logo and get that shit tatted on his neck. That’s dedication. He made himself into an attraction by facing all that and not giving up when everyone else told him he’d never be anything again, saying “fuck you” to all his detractors and doing everything on his own terms. He even got Vince to agree to bring him back in with his entire reinvented gimmick intact, entrance music and all. When is the last time Vince did something like that? AJ Styles is the only one I can think of that even comes close.
