Iirc Randy beat him, went to punt him, but Cody got in between them and stopped Randy. I think Randy walked off and it was a setup for Legacy? Idk, I just remember Dusty not getting punted
Cody/Randy/KO vs the new Bloodline at MITB. Randy turns on Cody after the match to set up a title match at Summerslam. Wouldn't be surprised if the a Randy vs Cody program carries WWE programming for months in a trilogy of matches.
Definitely seems like the way to go. I know people have said they want a Cody/AJ trilogy (and I would be very much up for that too) but after an I Quit match idk how you justify AJ challenging Cody again lol
>but after an I Quit match idk how you justify AJ challenging Cody again lol
Cody was unconscious at one point. In a normal match, AJ would have won there.
I kind of want Randy to win the title in the first match for a bit of shock value before Cody wins it back. Cody doesn’t need a long continuous reign like Roman and it wouldn’t impact his story with Rock at all.
Finn, Drew and Chad Gable are all acceptable men’s MITB winners IMHO. Makes sense for all of them to cash in on the WHC. Finn makes sense to cash in on Priest, Chad makes sense to cash in on Gunther. Drew makes sense generally.
I would say LA Knight but he’s likely winning the US title from Logan Paul and he doesn’t need the briefcase for that
I'm thinking Roman "saves" Cody at MITB because he doesn't want Solo to take control of the Bloodline by beating Cody. That sets up Solo vs. Roman for SummerSlam.
Somehow we get to Cody vs. Orton at some point. Maybe a random RKO as Cody celebrates. This was always my dream feud for champ Cody. Randy has to go full sadistic heel though.
To be fair one of the smackdown biggest problem is their lack of top heel believable enough to be Cody's challenger
Aside from AJ and probably Solo, there's no other legit top heel for Cody. Shinsuke is nowhere to be seen ever since the draft, Carmelo hayes isn't ready yet. Logan is part timer that only appear once every 2 months. on the other hand all top heels such as Gunther, Judgement day and Drew all on RAW. so makes Orton turn heel is good solution to adress this matter
If you actually watched he was looking at Cody's arm, which he grabbed and raised, while saying to him he was gonna raise his arm. Was nothing to do with looking at the belt

With the old legacy connection this feud makes sense with a potential built in feud
Even before legacy Cody's first match in wwe was against randy and also randy beat dusty in a match and I believe punt kicked him after
Iirc Randy beat him, went to punt him, but Cody got in between them and stopped Randy. I think Randy walked off and it was a setup for Legacy? Idk, I just remember Dusty not getting punted
Cody stopped him once at Great American Bash, lost a match to Randy on the following Raw, then Randy punted Dusty.
Randy was a fucking menace at this time. Little me feared him.
Bring back Ted DiBiase Jr and Sim Snuka, you cowards!
Manu joins the Bloodline
you do know the former is in prison right now
Dom got connections, it's all good.
Sim Snuka? Manu should be perfect fit for Bloodline

Yeah agree once you've said I Quit I think you go to the back of the line of title challengers lol
Well let’s see what other color suits AJ has first before we send him to the back
He’s probably going to go have a run in TNA for a bit
>but after an I Quit match idk how you justify AJ challenging Cody again lol Cody was unconscious at one point. In a normal match, AJ would have won there.
It was such a well done match, i loved the fact that AJ still made cody pass out but still got outsmarted by the champ to make him quit
does a chair flush on the head really count as outsmarting?
If it works it works!
An “I double quit” match.
I kind of want Randy to win the title in the first match for a bit of shock value before Cody wins it back. Cody doesn’t need a long continuous reign like Roman and it wouldn’t impact his story with Rock at all.
That would only be reign 15 for Randy. Seems like a layup to swap the title and hold #16 in the chamber.
100%. Randy needs to take that title from Cody no matter how short of a reign it is for the shock value alone.
Punching the air rn as a jacob fatu fan
I hope KO just wins MIB. And thats a TV main event instead. Cody vs Solo at MIB instead
I personally want Finn or AJ to win MITB but I would love KO too. Need that monster heel KO world title run. Imagine he cashed in on Sami lol.
Finn, Drew and Chad Gable are all acceptable men’s MITB winners IMHO. Makes sense for all of them to cash in on the WHC. Finn makes sense to cash in on Priest, Chad makes sense to cash in on Gunther. Drew makes sense generally. I would say LA Knight but he’s likely winning the US title from Logan Paul and he doesn’t need the briefcase for that
I feel like Jey is an obvious shout too.
I tend to think of it as a heel gimmick but yeah he would be the obvious babyface choice to win
Jey cashing in a returning Roman would be poetic
They could do it face vs face too that would be very “Cody”
Just don’t get your hopes too much is all I’m saying. Because not everyone wants to see that feud like you 🤷♂️
Randy is the final boss for Cody's mom if he goes into 2007 mode
OH FUCK
He's gonna handcuff Cody and ddt momma Rhodes isn't he....
Then have a steamy make out
Would be a huge match for Summerslam 😮💨
3 matches minimum
If they do that I need 2009 Orton back and I need him to take the belt least once
this feud calls for proper bald Orton

Bray and Randy were damn good together
They had great chemistry. I don’t love their matches, but their feuds were so fun.
Bray crying as Randy burns sister abigail will haunt me in my dreams

I fucking love where this is all seemingly headed. The Cody/Orton and Punk/Drew feuds are going to be special.

Can’t wait for the inevitable Cody/Orton feud
Orton was eyeing the championship so hard, he couldn't take his eyes away!
He was eye-raping the title
https://preview.redd.it/7gdteug3cs6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2bbcef6fe6c4210987270595ac3ef39128c31105
He's SLITHERING his way to the title picture
Watch out watch out WATCH OUT!
That RKO on Cody is going to be generational
I would LOVE to see Randy take the title off Cody, even if Cody wins it back a month or two later.
Gotta build that Summerslam ME
“Haven’t had this one yet”
![gif](giphy|CjNifqd0JIgV6biOjK)
That man is always looking at other people's shit
Sneke gonna sneke
Orton: just admiring
I think I'd turn both KO and Orton and keep them as a duo against Cody.
If Randy wins, does that tie him with Cena?
Randy becomes a 15 time world champ if he wins at SummerSlam. Cena is at 16 title reigns.
Need this match in my life.
The new Bloodline bout to avenge their homies Manu and Sim Snuka.
I'm thinking Roman "saves" Cody at MITB because he doesn't want Solo to take control of the Bloodline by beating Cody. That sets up Solo vs. Roman for SummerSlam.

We're talking about the belt right ? Please?

The bloodline is boring without Roman. They all look similar and don't really have much going for them other than they are part of the bloodline.
If you actually watched he was looking at Cody's arm, which he grabbed and raised, while saying to him he was gonna raise his arm. Was nothing to do with looking at the belt
Came here to say this, lol. If you watched it, this screengrab is a hella reach.
