I know it’s crazy but this injury Cody got might have been the best thing for his career. His hype won’t die down and if everything goes well and the timeframe is right, he’ll probably return at the Rumble and win it and compete for the world title (hopefully just wwe championship) and win it

That is exactly what should happen at wrestlemania next year in LA. Roman has defeated just about everybody on the roster and there’s three people that I believe could legitimately take the title off of him. The first one obviously is Cody Rhodes The second one would be Carrion Kross, and the third one is edge. This is my opinion where it would be realistic if these three people will take the title from him.

I think there are parts of Jim that's pretty divisive, but he always comes out with something right on the money that I simply can't disagree with. The man has a lot of knowledge, it's just he has a very strict vision of wrestling, uncompromising, pretty petty at times and disrespectful of other visions. But the man always has my respect.

Exactly. His mind doesn't really adapt to the way wrestling changes but the critiques he has for wrestlers and the product overall do make a ton of sense. It's just often he conveys it in such an aggressive and disrespectful way that most write him off. He's not always right with his stuff, but when he's right, he's right. And he's always hilarious so that helps.

Adapting with the times isn't always right if said changes are for the worse and continuously regressing the industry/art form. Wrestling has been scraping away every last element that made it so successful in the past. It has sacrificed any semblance of kayfabe, selling, learning the fundamentals of the ring, saying more with less, not relying on constant gimmick matches, knowing when to use certain things sparingly to compliment an angle or match (like blood), and simple sports based fueds. It's become an absolute cluster fuck of different styles, stipulations, rules, and attitudes that have all made it incomprehensible to majority of people. The only ones who love it now are usually marks for anything, or loyalists that convince themselves that they have to defend anything their preferred company does. The one that annoys me the most are the people who will call any promo amazing if the person just yells a lot and feigns passion, even if if makes no sense in the context of the angle. Like when Hangman went into business for himself self and completely rambled and whined his angle into nonsense. It took away from their fued as it was building, and inserted all this completely random, irrelevant shit from left field. Not to mention that Page is a terrible promo. Yet, people were losing their minds and calling it amazing. Wrestling will never be better if we just roll over, accept bad changes to it, and call people petty and out of touch for criticizing it.

Cody Rhodes could have retired after returning to WWE at Wrestlemania 38 beating Seth Rollins by doing so, and it still would have topped Cody's entire 3 year run with AEW, that's how impactful Cody's return to WWE was, don't twist my words, Cody did some great things while he was there, some memorable things, every single thing he did in AEW (GOOD/BAD/INDIFFERENT) They all paled in comparison to his return to WWE, after 6 years being away, Cody Rhodes bet on himself and Cody Rhodes won, it took a lot of guts to do what Cody did, a whole lot of guts
Cody made the right call to jump back to WWE. His first month or two back was better than the way he was presented in AEW. He was stealing the show on AEW each week and was never a world champion there when he should have been. Hopefully once Cody comes back he’ll be the one to beat Roman.

If they don't get a new tv deal quick they'll have a hard time turning a profit. That's probably also why they started playing by network rules, to become attractive for other networks. Currently, they aren't profitable but increasing their net worth. If their video game becomes a hit (which I sincerely hope) they might even be profitable this year (or next year depending on when it actually releases). I don't know how long Khan's dad is willing to pump money into the company but judging from his other sports exploits the stream will continue for now.
