Someone has to say this; Cody's wrestling frustrates me sometimes. In summary, he's a lightweight that wrestles like a heavyweight and it's unrealistic and makes things look bad. Yes, he does some light weight moves once a while like Cody cutter, but when you see him do a lockup with a full blown heavyweight strength for strength and equally matches him, it's just bad.

Na you dey complain about MJF now na Cody. It's like if they don't do enough moonsaults and flips then it isn't enough for you guys.
The Meltzer lovestyle isn't the only way to wrestle.

I didn't even mention flips. But your wrestling has to be realistic. A small guy can't be going toe to toe with a big guy in strength, it doesn't make any sense.

What's the point of being a WWE wrestler if you're not on wrestlemania? Did he ever appear on any PLE while he was champ?

Following Drew McIntyre's victory to become the Undisputed WWE Champion in early 2026, SmackDown experienced a notable rise in business metrics.
Ratings Increase: Since McIntyre captured the Undisputed Championship, SmackDown ratings rose by approximately 4.5% compared to the previous month.
Attendance Boost: Attendance for SmackDown shows increased by 30% compared to previous months during his reign.
Highest Rating: A February 2026 episode of SmackDown featuring McIntyre pulled in over 1.459 million viewers, marking the highest-rated SmackDown since September 2025 at that time.


Reign Context (Early 2026):
Drew McIntyre held the Undisputed WWE Championship for 55 days, starting with his victory over Cody Rhodes and ending in early March 2026. Although he had strong, consistent viewership numbers, a January 2026 episode faced significant competition from college football playoffs.

Damn, that's an a-hole move from Cody if true. He has held the title for the better part of two years and he can't let another guy have his WrestleMania moment? If I were Drew, I'd be pissed.

He's a light heavyweight. Similar to the likes of Kurt Angle, Matt Riddle, lean pre-HGH Randy Orton, and CM Punk. They are light enough to hit some high flying moves and strong enough to hit some power moves.

This is well-established pro-wrestling philosophy, why are you suddenly finding it upsetting?

I should, but it's so ridiculous i don't think they were trying to be serious, i think they were just doing it for fun.

they're strong enough to hit some power moves, just not as good as a heavyweight. Did you not read what I wrote?

don't work; but who's going to tell Jericho, someone whose gimmick is having multiple gimmicks. Tony Khan, so this is the sports based product you promised us.

See Cornette that said he'll stop talking about AEW. Didn't take up to a week. What a character.

He said he "won't watch Dynamite" unless something newsworthy happened.

so Jericho's list is newsworthy? How many times will he even promise to stop watching? Why will he stop when it gives him his best views?

There was a promo segment between Kenny and MJF.
Mox and the deathriders took on Will and United Empire.

He didn't talk about Jericho's list. It was about his return last week.
Like it or not Y2J returning after almost a year out is still big news in wrestling media.

He said he's no longer watching Dynamite anymore unless something newsworthy happens.
You can stop watching something yet talk about it. It's same thing you do with WWE.

I don't watch UFC but have talked about the upcoming Ronda match.

Yeah bro, go and tell the veteran, Chris Jericho, who has had multiple gimmicks has throughout his career that none of them have ever worked. Tell him that his character, Chris Jericho, is an absolute failure and it's all because of gimmicks.

Hasn't Tony pulled in his wrestler from appearing in another promotions before? Yes, he has? Where was all this fury then?
