which was better

>>18230667 (OP)
Hanger

>>18230667 (OP)
both were perfect. i was in the crowd for cody so i'd personally pick that one, but theres no wrong choice

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody

cody easily. hangperson fucking sucks

As a match, Hanger. As a story, Roman/Cody.

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman lynching people with the chain is the best wrestling finish ever

cody would've had to have speared roman from the top of the titantron to beat hanger

>>18230667 (OP)
I liked Hangman's match more but Cody winning felt better, at least for me.

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody

>>18230667 (OP)
It was Cody easily

>>18230667 (OP)
>undertaker out of nowhere
Everyone in the Texas deathmatch was there for a reason

Hopefully hangman can have a better run and ending then that cena cody match
Luckily he won't have to be tied into the Solo bloodline vortex line Cody

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman isn't a nepo who was handed everything to him. So....

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody because it was the better story and his first time winning the belt.

>>18230667 (OP)
icl codys one felt more hollow because it wasnt meant to happen

>>18230737
that part.

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody’s was perfect, full of genuine emotion and impact.

>>18230667 (OP)
Hanger. Cody's felt contrived and thrown together.

>>18230737
>still doesn't get it
Grim.

>>18230748
Ya finna cry?

>>18230667 (OP)
Yuki Arai's championship win at Summer Princess '25 will mog both of these

>>18230667 (OP)
Wasn't Hangman a champion in this same company already? What a dumb comparison.

>>18230772
What does that even mean

>>18230782
That wrestlemania was full of cameos?

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman made more sense. it’s a story that’s been being told since the beginning of the company. Cody was out if nowhere. the story in WWE was about Roman’s long ass reign and out of nowhere it pivoted to being about Cody

>>18230794
His title reign was so bad that everyone's pretending it didn't happen, I guess.

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody's moment felt more like a moment. Hangman felt like a normal title win. All In was my first time watching AEW since 2022 and I don't know the stories so I can certainly say Hangman winning was anticlimactic as a casual fan, unlike Cody's win

>>18230667 (OP)

Simple as

>>18230808
Just like Cody's. Kek

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman was genuine. Cody was a nepobaby tribalism bait.

>>18230805
>Hangman made more sense. it’s a story that’s been being told since the beginning of the company
swear this guy was a heel 6 months ago

>>18230790
love arai player

>>18230824
Biggest fed bitch post. Bar none

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody. Although both have shock value (WWE with legends and AEW with blood and their allies), the Rhodes one didn't had to extreme violence to sell. Also, Owen Hart cup is literally a King of the Ring.

>>18230737
>for no reason
Don't you gAyEW retards pride yourself on being "intelligent wrestling fans"? What a retard faggot.

>>18230796
it means I agree
>>18230842
that's called character development

>>18230667 (OP)
>irrelevant faggot company that'll never amount to anything of importance
VS
>most important wrestling company in the world

>>18230851
WWE botched the shit the first time around with the rubber chicken winning. No one gave a shit after that except for tards and children.

>>18230737
>for no reason

Rock didn’t show up to his summons to Wrestler’s court.

>>18230853
Then why the fuck was the undertaker there? Shit wasn't even in Texas so no homestate talent either. You ain't explaining shit.

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody is a soulless carny

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman had the better story

>>18230786
No, why would people empathize and get behind a nepo baby excepct you bootlicker e-drone.It's why cody had to jump ship because the more "hardcore" fans aren't ever gonna get behind his snide ass in a million years.

You'd have to be retarded to choose Cody what a stupid question

>>18230867
>that's called character development
no it's called people randomly getting behind a hotshot

>>18230794
his reign was cut short by TK being in love with Phil

Idk who the one on the left is

Rhodes v Reigns had a big match feel to it. Moxley is atrocious and Hangmaam is a faggot.

That said - Cody was boring as champion, his matches were garbage. Reigns and Lesnar have carried the entire industry on their shoulders for so long now it's sad.

Hangman was a better story and with better matches imo. Taking in to account his two year journey it's pretty good, especially when you consider he was full heel for a while. Dude burned a guy's house down.

What hardships or character growth did Cody go through? He got targeted by Brock Lesnar and had to beat him 3 times in a match?

>>18230887
>spoonfeed me please!

>>18230805
Did you want Jey Uso to beat Roman

>>18230667 (OP)
As an AEWbro, both were great.
Cody not only finished his story but helped create the company that had the literal best PPV tonight that reminded me why I got into this whole fake fighting ballet routine to begin with.

GREAT weekend and I hope you Edrones have a blast with your Bash at the Beach and SNME.

I only watch the major leagues so I would have to go with Cody over whomstever that other guy is.

>>18230737
>Everyone in the Texas deathmatch was there for a reason
Bunch of jobbers jobbing in another AEW clusterfuck. By those standards, yes.

>>18230667 (OP)
Hated the Cody shit but it felt like a bigger moment

>>18230951
kek you have no response

>>18230705
So fucking wrong.
Hangman match was indie carnie shit with a story from the heart with Swerve finally helping his rival.
Cody was a well timed match with a shit story they threw together in 3 weeks because people revolted against the Rock.

>>18230737
>hurr I'm da final boss of wrestlemania!
>*teleports behind you* mmmmmmmm no you ain't *chokeslams you*

>>18230993
You sound like you fuck kids, just saying lad.

>>18230887
Because Taker is like the sheriff of the locker room. He was the locker room leader for decades. He was the right person to stand up for the ‘integrity’ of the match and stand up against the injustice. Seethe.

>>18230947
Stardust, his entire indi/AEW career, being screwed the year prior

Adam Page easy

>>18231047
kek that's so retarded

>>18231070
That you Kenny?

LMFAO keep in mind the Roman Cody match was supposed to be a standard rules match too KEK

>>18231145
>didn’t pay attention to night one

I can’t help you if you’re this retarded.

Nothing against the Codester but Page happened organically, with reverse politics by Ospreay which led to AEW, a company known for crushing it with their PPVs, having maybe their best PPV of all time.

>>18231129
So you don't fuck kids anymore? When did you stop?

>>18230667 (OP)
Hangman is better. Cody is too much of a pussy to hang thr bad guy to win a title. He needed help from Boomers.

Cody had to face a 1k+ reign plus the bloodline+finishing his story angle after being a pillar of AEW.
Both were great matches
Also Moxley's goons and Darby diminished some aura

>>18230667 (OP)
Cody
Hanger's is cool and meaningful too though, just in a different way
