That's kind of my problem with it. Jey absolutely blew his last Mania match and from what I remember his matches with Gunther weren't much to write home about.

So Jey/Gunther and some variation of Rollins/Reigns is more or less set in stone, yeah? Only opponents that really make sense for Cody are Punk or Cena, unless Rock changed his mind again and wants back in that match.

Hell, have Logan Paul win because people would pay money to see Gunther chop the shit out of Paul. |

I think there will be a swerve thou have jey get hurt in a way that he can't compete so cm punk takes over and have a four way elimination match with drew and seth and gunther

Wow just watched the replay. Jey...really? It would have been fine had he not just had the match with Gunther. I'd rather Logan or cena or hell give me Jacob fatu lol. Jey is fine as a wrestler but want's the angle?
Also are they trying to turn Cody and seth? |

That's a really shitty waste of a rumble. At that rate just have Cena win it and challenge tweener/heel Cody Rhodes.

That's a stretch.
WWE has turned more business first with how it books, so I'd expect more results like this moving forward. Cody selling lots of merchandise? Check. Win Rumble twice. Who else sells a lot of merch. Jey Uso. Check. Sell more yeet shit. Major PPVs in Saudi Arabia. Other PPVs in this country and that country. The product as you knew it is no longer a thing. |

I feel you on Jey. He’s got the crowd behind him, but a Mania title match just doesn’t feel like the right spot for him. A big singles feud? Sure. But carrying a world title match? That’s a stretch after just seeing his match with Gunther. The Seth/Drew/Punk triple threat idea would’ve been fire. It makes total sense given how all three have been intertwined, and it would’ve been an easy way to set up a banger main event. Plus, it keeps the world title picture feeling legit instead of a one-off match that everyone sees coming. If they really wanted a shock winner, Bron would’ve been a way better call. At least with him, you get that Lesnar-like dominant newcomer vibe, and he’d be someone fresh in the main event scene. Jey winning just feels like a feel-good moment with no real long-term direction. And what do they do with Jey if he loses again? He'll be washed. |

This feels like Alberto Del Rio winning it. The babyface version.
Entertaining guy, but probably should just be at the top of the mid card.

So it's just the Sami chasing Gunther storyline again subbing in Jey and the World Title for Sami and the Intercontinental. Okay, I guess?

Leaning into the fact that this isn't really a Mania match is kind of lame as well IMO. That type of shit belongs in the late Vince era.

I’ll maintain that the Main Events should be:
Night 1 - Cody vs Cena. Current biggest babyface vs the biggest babyface of the previous 15-20 years. If you want to turn Cody heel, this is a good time. Let Cena build some sympathy and have Cody get annoyed as the crowd gets behind Cena. Cody can spend the next several weeks laying into the fans about them not appreciating what he’s done for them. Night 2: Triple Threat - Punk vs Drew vs Seth. As I stated before.

Roman will figure into that somehow. Rhodes vs Cena to turn Rhodes Heel was where I thought they'd be going but now I think it'll be Punk instead.
Cody/Punk Jey/Roman Rollins/Reigns Cena/Fatu or Breaker to give them the rub. Or he works Orton for his retirement match. |
