Ahhh the Cody Hall experiment:

  • Couldn't hack it in the indies
  • Became a big dumb gaijin that got injured in NJPW
  • Went to DDT and became even more of a klutz
  • God blacklisted from Japan for being a asshead (when DDT doesn't want to fukk with you, that is a problem)

"following in his footsteps" is a bit of a stretch :francis:

My thought would be that Cody is one of those guys who thought having "Hall" to his name would him Legacy Privileges to the Bigtime. I am sure the Rhodes, the Johnsons/Anoa'i, and Harts go, "You want to join the family business? Alright, but your going to have to do this.... this..." so their family members do get the Family Name privilege but they also understand how they are responsible for improving on their own.

I'm not saying he isn't a fukkup, but I will point out that his career went downhill after being injured catching one of the Young Bucks on a balcony dive, and he really didn't recover after that.

Yeah. On the real, dude was on the radar and I was a fan for a spell, but that injury ruined the potential. Such a waste :francis:

One of his father's best friends runs the biggest wrestling company on the planet. Cody Hall is only 31, there's some time for him to turn it around. It's baffling that WWE hasn't given him a shot given the size, has some experience, and the legacy, but there's also the possibility that he feels that industry isn't for him.

He should go to Mexico and eat. He's trash but they turned Mark Jindrak into a legend down there. He'll be serviceable if he's mature.
