I am going forward with the story that Cody and Tony and the EVP's can all co-exist together and even have a good time when the situation calls for it. But the hard lines that Cody has for himself and his growth weren't really on the table moving forward at AEW because of the big names coming in.

It makes sense. Cody's gotta go back to WWE and prove himself as a main eventer so he can come back to AEW and be a "real Champion". It's like no matter where he goes he's just not "the top guy" even if he was writing the show himself!

Also, fuck you Cody! You sonofabitch! You broke my heart!
Think this is my favorite take on that matter so far. Andy I think you’re right. I could easily see Cody getting a world title run in AEW in a heel or face run. But not anytime soon and prob not for quite a few years with how the current roster is set up.

Hangman likely drops it to MJF, who maybe drops it to Wardlow. That’s prob a good 1.5-2 years worth of booking given they’ve booked every champ with an at least 6 month reign. And even if Cody stayed and got a world title win in 2 years, you can’t predict what his fan support or momentum would be.

I’ll add that I really do wonder if Cody was dead fucking set on being a babyface instead of embracing the heel role the fans wanted. And that maybe that’s where things broke down and Cody decided to money on a bigger stage for a company that groomed him and is in desperate need of babyface main event talent.

If that was the reason, that’s another bummer. I like heel Cody.
