KO would be great considering his role with Cody is already established.

The thing with KO is he was last seen trying to end Orton for good.

 

[TonyDubbz]

It's go end up being Cowboy Bob Orton, Randy a third generation wrestler and his pops in the HOF. The Dibiase family only star is Ted Sr.

I'm leaning more toward it being Orton like Phenom said now. I saw some other ppl saying that too. I just never thought about it.

PWInsiderElite.com has received a lot of emails asking about the Pat McAfee reveal tonight on Smackdown, which inserted him into the Randy Orton-Cody Rhodes storyline.

Those we have spoken to believe this was an edict from TKO brass to WWE Creative, not a creative idea that originated in the WWE writing room and was approved by Paul Levesque. One source believed the edict may have come from as far up as Ari Emanuel, but we have not yet confirmed that belief.

The idea seems to be that including McAfee in the scenario gives ESPN a new promotional dimension for Wrestlemania, given McAfee's importance and popularity on their platform, giving the ESPN audience something additional leading into their first-ever Wrestlemania broadcast.

Debiase was the better option?!???!

That would totally suck yet completely plausible.

[Iceberg_Taylor]

And then they ran Cody back out there to shit on their own booking

 

[already home_17]

i just…i just don’t understand these booking decisions

even if it’s not HHH’s idea he could explain to TKO brass how all this unnecessary celebrity involvement could backfire and kill fan interest. i get that could result in him being fired but that shits gonna happen anyway since ticket sales aren’t meeting TKO’s unrealistic standards

 

[L.L.R.J.]

Who regrets moving PLEs to espn unlimited more?

ESPN or WWE?

But having celebs involved in WWE has been goin on for decades. Ever since the 1st or 2nd one. This isn’t nothing new.

NOW...what makes this iteration of the WWE different is at least when VKM did it...it was solely about WWE and gettin more eyes on WWE. Making sure the stories at least made sense

This ain't nothin but a cash grab for TKO. They don't give damn about the story or if it makes sense.

"How much money can we milk outta these fans to pay off these UFC debts?"
