If this was WWE Penta would be banished to 205 Live or Main Event after that loss, not in huge trios matches with them still pushing his new gimmick.

Cody left WWE and did a ton of work, working harder than basically any indie star to take all of the bookings and do all of the meet and greets, plus media stuff. When he started his career being the son of Dusty helped him get his foot in the door, but Dusty had burned off a lot of fan good will in the last 15 years and it was Cody, Dusty and Dustin who helped make the name legendary again.

When AEW does it, I'll call it out. It was not a dumb loss, it was a good and appropriate loss.

I don't think the loss to Cody is ideal but I also think Cody gave him a lot during the match and it didn't make Penta look too bad so while it didn't help him much it didn't hurt him much either, so it's kind of a wash?

shiksa posted:im very glad the 2nd generation wrestler with a famous name who had worked for the largest wrestling promotion in the world since he left high school was able to take advantage of all the opportunities everyone else is too dumb to do or whatever When Cody came into the wrestling business Dusty was basically a joke who had lost a lot of fan good will and had spent the last three years bumbling around in TNA. The family name got him in the door. From there, as Dusty got away from TNA and fans started treating him like a legend again, his push in WWE stalled and he left. To deny he worked hard to build his brand and become a star from there is to deny reality. Because there are tons of second generation wrestlers who leave WWE for one reason or another and don't mean a thing after. But he took dates, was willing to learn from people like the Bucks, networked and busted his rear end to go from an average WWE style wrestler to someone who when he's on has great, dramatic, dynamic matches. He's become a great promo, and to claim that Dustin is a bigger star is to deny reality. Because networks aren't asking Dustin's wife to do reality shows (right before AEW even started!) and putting him on every project TNT can throw at him. The Dibiase name meant about as much as the Rhodes name in 2006 but look where Ted Jr went and look where Cody went.

Rarity posted:Cody has been beaten like 3 times in AEW. Taking a loss to him isn't dumb Yeah and those were to someone else throwing in the towel to screw him, a weapon shot and a flash pin. It's not like Cody was gonna lose to some guy in a TV match on a week build. Now, to hit post without checking cagematch to make sure this is accurate and there isn't a fourth loss I haven't thought of.

Penta is the Naito of AEW in that everyone he hangs around with is cooler than him. Fenix, PAC, Laredo Kid, Alex, all much cooler than him.

Cody could have lost to Penta and it would have been fine for him, or they could do the finish they did and it was fine for Penta.

I just want to say to this that you really can't compare aew and wwe like this, because in aew's short history they've at least shown that they can be trusted to do a lot of things that you can't expect from the wwe. like, things like 'a primarily tag competitor is portrayed as strong as a primarily singles competitor' and 'a person can give a promo in their main, non-English language without it being a joke.' things like 'someone having a loss but looking strong despite it' and 'a dynamic between two characters being brought up again significantly after the fact without being constantly brought up' are REAL BASIC storytelling tools that aew can be trusted to use, since they have shown they can follow up on that trust. wwe can't be trusted on those points because they go against them almost every chance they get. it's simple. past that I think a lot of y'all really need to start posting earnestly about the show again because it really sucks to read when people make up things to get mad at
