Brock/Cody

By Scott Keith on 22 April 2023

I'm probably getting my hopes up, but I can't possibly imagine this one being booked as three minutes of finisher spamming. It just doesn't seem like it would make sense; I understand the logic behind McIntyre beating Brock in three minutes in order to make Drew look even bigger and badder than the resident Big Bad, or Ricochet getting squashed because the audience wanted to see Brock demolish someone (not that I wouldn't have preferred longer, back-and-forth matches, just saying I get the logic), but in order to keep Cody looking like a main-eventer that always fights his heart out and newly-heel Brock looking like a remorseless killer, it needs to be more like Brock's matches with Styles and Bryan, no?

Think we'll get an “actual” match here, or will it be another short cop-out?

I think it’ll be a real match. I sure don’t like Cody’s chances though. But there will probably be lots of smoke and mirrors, whoa oh, only smoke and mirrors.
