strobogo Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 I am truly stunned that Vince is okay with this in 2022. Seth should probably buy Cody a car for some of these shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin' Brian Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Where is Ron Simmons when you need him? My first reaction to Cody’s bruise was ‘damn’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Somehow this match is pretty damn good. Whether its selling or Cody simply working through unreal pain, the work has been great and they've stuck to a pace that fits the injury. Really impressive.

WingedEagle Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Assuming this didn't compound Cody's injury or put him on the shelf for longer, kudos to all for putting this match together and sticking to Cody going over clean as can be at the end of the day. Now strap him up at Mania when Rock doesn't show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted June 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Percody Rhodes hits different, man. Dude took the dumbest fucking spots in AEW for no good reason and decided to one up himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 If Cody has surgery it would be 7/8 months recovery time which would put him to a possible Rumble return and victory if they go that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 After all of this, they actually have someone that can dethrone Roman and be made a big(ger) star. Cody gotta pray that 1) Roman doesn't get injured either. 2) Rock doesn't comeback for one last enormous check and 3) Vince panics and books fucking Brock AGAIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brynn Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 I'm truly amazed at what Cody did tonight. To go that long in an extremely physical match with pretty much one arm, gives me a whole new level of respect for him. That's not to say I didn't respect him before but this just was way beyond absolutely anything. On a personal note, I know how hard it is to get things done when you have a limb that doesn't work or, in my case, missing (my left leg). It's not easy. So for him to have a near 30 minute match at that high level and be in tremendous pain is absolutely incredible. I'll go so far as to say that's probably one of my favorite Hell in a Cell matches of all time now. As for the rest of the card, I really thought that NXT last night was going to be hard to beat but tonight's show pretty much did just based on the strength of that main event and the women's three way match.

Johnny Sorrow Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Today is my birthday, and we had over some friends and the kids for the show and some grilling. The boys were in and out of the show, running around and all. But when Cody revealed that bruise? They were transfixed. They know what wrestling is. But this was their first " Holy shit, a guy is hurt for real and doing this crazy shit" moment as young 11-12 year old fans. They were wincing every time Cody got hit and they popped huge when he win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 So, long story short, Cody's injury couldn't go worse as it already is so they let him compete. Which is strange, considering the same news article on their site stated that he wouldn't have been cleared if it was a partially torn pec.

sek69 Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 I suppose it couldn't get any worse, but damn that match was more uncomfortable to watch than any deathmatch I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dav'oh Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Does anyone here really believe Cody wasn't pumped full of as many painkillers as medically possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Gross and incredibly stupid (who knows what this actually will do to his injury in the days to come ?). Sets a bad precedent and bad message for everyone too aka "Working way injured is how you get yourself over, kids". Worst of old-school mentality pushed to the worst extreme. There was signs in late AEW that Cody was crazy desperate for attention (the fire spot being the most obvious), but this is just *bad*. How is someone with a lesser injury gonna argue against the company that he/she shouldn't work now ? In term of setting a worse precedent in a HITC match, this is probably even worse than Foley's stunt (which was also a terrible precedent to set, but limited to the use of the gimmick). Also : 52 minutes ago, Dav'oh said: Does anyone here really believe Cody wasn't pumped full of as many painkillers as medically possible? Yeah, no shit. Really, this is amazingly stupid on all accounts. No idea how anyone could praise this simply for the message it sends to other workers. May have been awe-inspiring (although honestly, the whole morbid aspect of "OMG this is REAL PAIN" is extremely questionnable, what's the difference between this is some gory GCW deathmatches in term of dealing with actual self-imposed physical torture ?), but really, Cody... I also wonder. If the MJF drama doesn't happen last week, does Vince allows Cody to work ? Also, blood & guts (aka, blading) is gory self-mutilation. This on the other hand, is ok. Point taken.
