HIAC 2022

Apparently this is all legit. It’s a full tear.

The fuck are you doing if you’re the old man allowing this to happen. Lashley was super fucking over. You have Cody come out and say he’s hurt. Crowd boos but you show them the bruise. They’ll still boo but say he hopes to one day make it up to them but Seth isn’t getting off that easy and Lashley’s music hits. Rollins has a gripe he didn’t prepare for Lashley and go from there.

But you know, whatevs.

Impromptu Bullrope Match

This is insane to me.

But fuck I don't hate it.

I hate it. Not in the it’s an awful match way, it’s been really good in that regard

But motherfucker is legit crazy injured. I hate it. You’re sacrificing more time out presumably

"I appreciate you trying to coordinate with the belt Seth, but I wasn't lifting no weights in 89 baaaaaby.  Just goin' to the PAY WINDA!"

I laughed as soon as I read that but you’re probably right.

Cody had one arm and had that quality of a main event.

Win the title at the Rumble.

Roman-Rock doesn't need the belt.

Big Dust had the big birthmark on his belly welly. Cody had to outdo him and have that massive bruise.

I truly hope he's still The Guy when he recovers. Rumble return is obviously a massive pop/return/win.

Trying to figure out what is so different. Is it just the scenery? He's literally everything he was in AEW, just under the WWE banner. I honestly think he was a WWE guy trying to play AEW, if that makes sense. This over the top entrance, the insane pyro, over passionate (at times) promos, that's WWE written all over it. It just didn't fit in AEW. You do a rise up from the floor entrance every week, with promos where you're almost in tears weekly to sort of make up for the fact you can't challenge for the World Title (the biggest mistake he did in AEW in my opinion).

He needed a reset button without being completely reset, if that makes sense.

Good PLE.
No issues with any of the results.
Yay, Ali got a reaction but he's a midcarder at best and was lucky to get this spot after acting like a little snowflake on social media.

Moss has something and hopefully they are done with the comedic act and make him serious now. Definitely has the look, now its time to see if he has the ability to deliver consistently good promos.
Bad break for Cody, but this injury and match will make him an even bigger babyface/star when he comes back. When WWE gets behind someone, no one can match them in making someone a star.
