I like the fact that rock is involved and it’s bringing the best out of everyone. Even Roman, who has been so stale for a year and a half, has been a better heel lately than he has been for a while with rock around. I just hope they do give Cody the title and then give him something to do with it. I think WM40 is going to be a turning point for the rest of the year and what’s to come later.

@@user-bf6pd8uv8t That’s the way they wrote it. You’re lying to yourself if you think he’s not a bigger star today because of The Bloodline. Think about it, if he was going up against someone like Seth Rollins, it would mean No Roman, No Jimmy and Solo, Jey wouldn’t have any reason to be involved and more importantly, No Rock. People who haven’t watched since the attitude era are tuning back in and Cody has now become the biggest face in WWE because of it. Cody will most likely win the final night of Wrestlemania. But once the Bloodline exits the picture, he won’t have a rival as big as them again. I mean you hate them so much so they’re obviously doing a great job.
