Vince Russo criticizes WWE's booking of Roman Reigns
Former WWE writer Vince Russo believes Roman Reigns and The Rock was the perfect match for WrestleMania. The wrestling world negatively reacted to the idea and started the "WeWantCody" movement in response.
Speaking on a recent edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo show, the wrestling veteran took the company to task for altering its plans ahead of WrestleMania. Russo stated that The Rock versus Roman Reigns was a great story, and Cody Rhodes could have challenged The Tribal Chief after The Show of Shows.
"Bro they set up the story. They set it up on Saturday when they said we are gonna take everything from you. Everything... I am gonna take that title from you but it's not gonna be at WrestleMania. Here comes The Rock, that was the story bro. Cody and Rock working together, and the first piece of the puzzle is I am gonna show this guy who the real Head of the Table is. That's story number one. Once that story get's finished at WrestleMania, now there is only one thing left for Cody to do. They had that story." [7:17 onwards]
