>>9104655>Bring up the history of how Cody was marked for big things but got shoved aside for Romanthe problem with that imo is that it's just really fucking forced, like living in the past undervalues your current character
main event McIntyre worked because it was barely brought up and mainly by smarks, how McIntyre was le chosen onerino ten years ago
his booking didnt really have references to his first run with the company which added to his present character being a fleshed out roided bulldozer, not living in the past how he was supposed to achieve big things but ended up playing an air guitar
that's my problem with Cody, having his dad being the only thing going for him and then bringing up more things from the past is really just fucking lame, that's the thing they are getting right with the Sami-Bloodline feud rn, they arent riding on the friendship of Owens and Sami, it's all personal to Sami, and them reuniting would be cheesy cliché considering then you are reminded how many times Owens fucked over Sami, but now they keeping a distance between each other it works
