>>9083655Cody was moving serious merch before he was injured, and the moment he came back house shows started selling out. Now, I know, Sami can win the belt and then lose to Cody, but that's a no heat match. What's the story? Two gosh darn good guys fighting each other, but have mutual respect? Lame, at least compared to the alternative. The son of Dusty Rhodes (as he always reminds us) overcoming this insanely long reign. Sami selling merch is all well and good, but if they had him win, it would have killed the story dead. It's the worst of the two options, by far.
