[@judeelaman1902]

Idk if you read replies to sponsor comments, but I don't have Twitter so here's my hot take. Pete Dunne is a future world champion in WWE

[@shawnmichaels568]

As much as i want AJ styles to win the title, It's way too early for Cody to lose it. They have so much to do with Cody's title reign, Like facing Gunther (Makes sense, Since he eliminated him twice in the Rumble), A feud with Rock involving the belt & a potentially unexpected turn of events rivalry aganist Rollins.

[@frankschaefer8890]

Gunther should be the mania feud. Unless seth/the rock are out until the rumble

[@Requiem0139]

Yeap , 2 year story build up and become face of the company only to lose the title one month after with defending it once and losing it in the same match just doesn’t feel right , Imo Cody should hold it for a year minimum

[@frankschaefer8890]

@@Requiem0139 I think it should be Cody v Rock for SummerSlam (Cody wins). Maybe Randy and KO help Cody with the new bloodline and then it ends up with Cody vs. The Rock. Then The New Blood is stopped, Randy turns wins the title loses it back to Cody. Cody is cashed in on by LA Knight YEAH!!! Starting a feud that ends shortly after Survivor Series. Then returning chasing his 17th title, JOHN CENA. Cody vs. Cena at the Rumble. Cody wins (John will be back for the title next year but in a different circumstance). Then Gunther wins the rumble and beats Cody at WM 41.

[@anonymous24231]

​@@Requiem0139 I agree I think Cody should lose the title at mania 41 to punk. There's big story between them as well.

[@IamSpade879]

​@@anonymous24231Nope it should be Heel Randy Orton. Randy Orton should dethrone Logan Paul for US title hold it for 4 months to make it prestigious and redeem his previous US title run. Let LA Knight win the title and turn let Orton go on slow heel turn, and by Rumble he can get into a program with Rhodes. As for Punk he should definitely face Drew McIntyre (World champion) somewhere in Summer Slam and McIntyre should go over clean, let CM Punk get into feud with Rollins and let Punk win the Rumble and challenge Drew McIntyre on Mania. The Rock vs Roman Reigns is guarantee will be WM41 match Hence we have •Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton (WWE Title) •CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre (World Title) •The Rock vs Roman Reigns [All three money making story and match]

⁠@@joshuabacchus1208won’t be the future man. He only has a couple years at best it’s kind of now or never and if he didn’t drop it it’s not a Dwayne Johnson situation. If all the real fans, not just fans from 2022 who think they are diehards, the “you deserve it” chants should be loading than Cody’s. We already know AJ could fly with that title, especially if he can perform until his retirement like this. I say they actually pull the trigger on this beautiful swerve, just imagine Cody can have a huge United States title feud with Randy Orton. That would elevate that title past where Logan can elevate it. That would make it a main event talent title to vie for. And they pull this trigger if there is at least a 75% chance they can get HBK to have one more match, which he said if he had to do it, it would be AJ Styles no second thought. He regrets going out of retirement and shouldn’t have in the first place because he went out perfectly and with a perfect match, however he can’t change the decision he made and he came out of retirement, and can’t erase that lackluster match as his last one against legends past their prime. He could end his career just as he tried to end it before possibly with one more chance if him and his best friend who runs creative now talk and HBK says this is important enough for him. It’s confirmed AJ Styles has pestered him about this dream match. I think if this fell through, Triple H could out-do last wrestlemania in revenue by a huge amount, it’s likely to have the Rock on the card as well. Imagine AJ Styles is still champion after a great match against Gunther or something at the rumble. It’s time for number 30 during the rumble, no one knows anything about Shawn Michaels so this year unlike the last is a little unpredictable for the undisputed title scene, his music hits and he comes out which would be a gigantic pop, and he schools Seth Rollins and hits a sweet chin music on the apron and eliminates him to win the rumble. AJ comes out (theme possibly changed back to his original legendary one he debuted with but still same character) and they have the craziest face off of all time. Obviously AJ retains, would be at that time still capable of carrying Shawn to a match more entertaining technical wrestling wise than both of WM 40s main events, except it would have the crazy story attached to it as well. The dream match of this generation. One of the greatest performers in Wrestlemania against one of the best technical wrestlers in history. And then a main event of night 1 either Cody Rhodes vs the Rock or Roman vs the Rock. If not Cody Rhodes could have a match with Cena, especially if it would be his last. Just something in me thinks Cody will be in a main event level feud in a non title match. His match with the Rock might happen before Wrestlemania If it’s going to be Roman.

As far as Def Rebel goes, my favorite clip is now Kevin Owens reacting to AJ's new theme before the triple threat qualifier they had a couple weeks back, by saying "What music is that?"

[@roronoauchiha69]

[@thebel-boy13]

As far as I know, Jim Johnston is retired and CFO$ don't exist anymore. If we're going to replace Def Rebel, I think Downstait is the best choice; they did Miz's theme, Cody's themes and Nic Nemeth (Dolph Ziggler)'s themes. They worked with Johnston in the past; I think they're the best successors.

[@Raiyzor]

Heres one thing about Wrestler's Entrance themes. Look at all the good ones, 90% of them are actual songs, made by actual artists rather than just loops of a 30s-1min audio track that some would take little over half an hour for an average music producer. Theres no originality or authenticity in modern wrestling themes. Its the same thing with getting rid of the titantrons just for a small animation the screen for the wrestlers. Minimalism is a double-edge sword and its very evident. If WWE tried bringing in more genuine artists (real bands/musicians) to work on separate wrestlers themes. It could help the wrestlers as well as the artists, getting more recognition and having the fans actually be able to connect the theme to the wrestler. Rather than listening to some generic audio track and then you have to sit there for 30 seconds to figure out who's theme it actually is. A lot of us want Jim Johnston back (I do as well) but if we cant get him back then we can make the most of it by bringing in bands, Musicians to make themes rather than relying on a sole composer like def rebel or even CFO$ when they were around.

I would let Randy Orton dethrone Cody Rhodes in WM41. Randy Orton should dethrone Logan Paul for US title hold it for 4 months to make it prestigious and redeem his previous US title run. Let LA Knight win the title and let Orton go on a slow heel burn, and by Rumble he can get into a program with Rhodes. And CM Punk he should definitely face Drew McIntyre (World champion) somewhere in Summer Slam and McIntyre should go over clean defeat CM Punk, let CM Punk get into feud with Rollins and let Punk win the Rumble and challenge Drew McIntyre on Mania. The Rock vs Roman Reigns is a guaranteed WM41 match Hence we have: •Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton (WWE Title) •CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre (World Title) •The Rock vs Roman Reigns [All three money making story and match]

17:58 You're saying that catchphrases at beginning of theme song are bad. But look at Triple H theme. It begins with a catchphrase. Rock's theme starts for years with "If you smell"... And of course, even if is not in WWE anymore, the "You think you know me". Some catchphrases define a wrestlers. At a point, I'm pretty convince, if for exeample, WWE use today the "You think you know me" for someone else ( they have the copywright on it, so technically they can ) and then put another theme than Metallingus, people would riot, and destroy the poor wrestler with that.

Ivy Nile has the most to gain out of this turn, and I really hope WWE doesn't blow it. Honestly 100% agree about Becky Lynch. Her and Liv are probably the only 2 wrestlers who won't be damaged by winning the World Championship tonight.

[@niketannaidoo6938]

We can really see the brand fluidity between the WWE and the UFC. First the Smackdown Tag Titles look like Prestigious sports titles again, Triple H did say we would see the changes coming in slowly. The draft feels important again because we care about seeing certain matches and we might have to wait for the money in the bank/royal rumble/survivor series. The Sami Zayn entrances also show it as it feels like a UFC walk to the ring where you see the fighter in their natural element and then see the crowd embrace them. I really hope that they use it sparingly for special occasions and i wouldn't even be mad if its just a Sami entrance. Santi is so right, it really fits the character and even if its just the entrance, it makes the match feel more special.

Santi needs make a discord 😮

[@Moonrise840]

He has one

[@elizabethwatson9112]

Its ok for Cody not to defend his title but it was ok for Bayley & Sami to do so?

[@gamemasteroffun]

I think that TNA and NXT should be a collaborative partnership. Like how ROH and TNA were. Like imagine Dragunov vs Nice Nemeth or Bron Breaker Vs Moose. Or JOE HENDRY VS LITERALLY ANYONE I JUST WANT A WAY FOR JOE HENDRY TO BE IN WWE

7:14 SantiFart?

As much as i love the new designs for the tag championships, the tag champions are are not good enough, The awesome truth is cool and R - Truth deserves it, but we need a serious champions and A Town under isnt that for me, great heals but i would like someone else, tbh i dont have an awnser but im not really interested in them tag championship yet i love the design

Blood in a mox match is like an f5 in a Lesnar match. You just expect it to be there these days. 😂

[@ShotInTheDark407]

I'm gonna be real here, the "New Catch Republic" part of Tyler Bate and Pete Dunnes theme is the best part.

[@sacriphicesquad4556]

This aged well

The draft has become boring and predictable. WE NEED GMS TO FIGHT OVER SUPERSTARS!!! I think each Gm should choose a superstar on their current roster to represent them in a triple threat match at backlash for draft priority.

[@xDYaZZa]

Damien Priest's theme is actually good though, the all rise at the start fits his character. The other themes though are just straight up bad.

[@Primetime210]

Preach Santi Preach. 3:35 Fans should chill out. At least we see the champion on a weekly basis compared to Roman going home with it and never showing up to work. I am in it for the long haul. All Hail Cody Rhodes.

[@akhileshdagar7627]

Since this draft a few weeks later after wm always creates a limbo, why not put it for raw and sd after wm and save this one month of inconsequential storylines till backlash

[@KravenBurrito]

Bron Breakkers new theme is better than his old one. We’ve just been used to his old one. The new one is more aggressive and more fitting of his in ring style as opposed to the old slower paced song.

[@Xeno_Des]

The way i rationalize Solo current mindset is he was hand picked by Roman tonbe next tribal chief and he is feeling himself rn becuase while the other two lost where it counted (wrestlemania) he didnt loes at mania personally

[@vikramchandragupta4414]

Imagine Bron Breaker with Batista's Theme song

[@M4465-mh9nl]

Honestly I think Cody should loose aj is a great heel and would thrive from the hate he will get and then get rock to come back and beat aj for the title and then have the rock vs Cody at summerslam and Cody winning hot take but I think it could work
