No one said the match was going to be for the title.
It’s going to be a head of the table match. The rock is going to win and cause Jimmy and Solo to abandon him. Paul will start looking at Roman like funny money until Summerslam and he finally loses to Cody for the title.
It’s so fuckin obvious what they are setting up.
If Roman wasn’t a champion and this was headlining mania, that’s fine, head of the table on the line
Why wouldn’t roman defend that title? That’s stupid to face rock as champion with no title on the line
And I’m fine with Cody vs Roman for the title at Summerslam but Roman has to defend the title vs rock if does face rock at mania
