I do have to wonder if this was the plan from the start or they pivoted after the negative reaction. In any case I think they're doing a good job with it so far. And yeah, it's also definitely nice for them to have The Rock around to distract from the horrifying Vince stories.

Rock was clearly brought onto the board to distract from Vince's shit, plus Hollywood hasn't been going so well for him the last few years. They had been wanting to do Roman and Rock for a couple of years now.

The whole thing has been booked so bizarrely that that it feels like it had to have been a pivot. I think when Punk went out with his injury they pounced on the idea of having Cody face Seth since there wasn't a clear opponenet for him and that would let them do Rock vs Roman. I think they genuinely underestimated how much people don't want another year of Roman with the belt (which is what would happen because they aren't gonna put the belt on a dude who hasn't wrestled in ages and is 51 year old part timer) and so they pivoted to this.
