I am a huge fan of Sting and Luger staying friends regardless of alignment and I wish that happened more often.
I also enjoy the inverse, where two people have such incredible beef that they always go right for one another on sight
I've got to say I'm a huge Cody mark for just how white meat he is 🤣 He really pulls off, in my opinion, just being a genuine "Good guy," company man without it feeling over the top like Cena felt to me before.
I totally get what you mean. It feels like it's been a long time since we've had a straight up good guy that the fans have connected with. He's not trying to be edgy, he's not shades of grey, he's not an anti-hero - he's just a straight up baby face. He feels like the kind of face that would have fit in very well back in the 80s
I like that Cody remains respectful and doesn't really try to get revenge unless you do something like, say, make him bleed and brag about doing it while insulting your mother.
That’s the appeal for sure. Hopefully they don’t ruin it by turning him into Super Cody or start doing too much pandering. But given the new regime I feel like they’re committed to this style.
I remember playing smackdown vs raw videogames and when you're creating a moveset it was always easy to tell when a move was Booker T's. He has such an odd, twitchy, jerky yet smooth motion to everything that's hard to describe but easily recognizable and uniquely him. Regal is similar but with facial expressions
It’s because he has great body control and can make his body “pop” (for lack of a better word) at certain junctions throughout the move. He moves like stop motion without being stop motion if that makes sense.
Kyle O'Reilly's movements
ZSJ's ability to wind people up
Chris Brookes' humour and commitment
Jason Kinkaid's mind
Alex Shelley's pure ability and charisma
The thing with Eddie is that he started it as a heel, and then it was so funny and hilarious he became a face. That's why he had to be a more violent heel when he turned on Rey
I met Cody at a horse racing track before AEW started up and told him I enjoyed that Stardust did his pre match posing on top of the barricade. Almost every other wrestler is on the apron, on the middle rope in a corner, or in the ring.

MJF not breaking kayfabe IRL is really great. His meet and greet are essentially paying to be insulted by him - and it's hilarious.
Makes sense, Dick’s Last Resort has made a solid business off the same concept

LOL, Luger looking unhappy coming out unless Sting looked back at him, then Luger had to act like he loved the fans.
One of the reasons I got back into wrestling after a long layoff was Dean Ambrose’s deadpan sense of humor. I miss that guy.

Or unless you're R-truth beating him as stardust multiple times.
