Yes, hope they don’t lose their way. Really poor Dynamite this week.

Is there any way to watch AEW without cable?

Reports are she will not be joining him.

I wonder how Cody is going to deal with WWE's schedule. It's going to be so different.

I don't see his show lasting. I like Cody but I hope this fails miserably and he learns his lesson about neck tattoos.

He's crazy if he thinks he's going to be a top guy at WWE. They'll treat him like they treat everyone else not named Brock or Roman. If he goes back, he deserves what he gets.

This is what I don't get. He's upset about a lack of creative control and not being the top guy so he's going to sign with the WWE?

It makes no sense at all.

Yeah. I hope the money is good (and guaranteed, which I highly doubt).

Well, he had creative control for himself in AEW I'm sure. But not to book others. And obviously he won't even get either for himself in WWE. I know sour grapes and all, but still it ultimately makes no sense.

I wonder how much dough he was asking for and how much Tony was willing to give also.

I’m not worried on his behalf. Wherever he goes it will turn out well.

They can sign just Cody, Ive read that’s what is going to happen, they aren’t interested in Brandi.

I think he’s upset that these things didn’t happen in AEW. I think his mindset is “well if I’m just a wrestler I’d rather do that in wwe and make bank.” He knows exactly where he is going and what it’s like there.

Could be, but there’s so much less flexibility and see how hard it’s been to request a release, then the non-compete clause, etc… I wonder how long he will sign for.

People need to remember, before AEW was ever a thing, the whole reason Cody left was to prove himself as the top guy wwe didn’t think he was, so he could go back there as a top guy.

AEW obviously changed this equation, but I think once he realized he wasn’t going to be the Dusty to Tony Kahn’s Jim Crockett, he fell back on his original plan.

He knows all that, but if the reports are accurate, he’s making about 5x what he was in AEW.

In the US, not legally. You could get a VPN and watch the FITE TV package for international viewers though.
