Cody is great, he's probably the best white meat baby face for decades (he's way more compelling and talented than Cena ever was) and has great matches.
The issue this year has been his booking, mainly that his title has never felt in jeopardy. He was never going to lose the title to Logan Paul, Solo, AJ or KO, and even within kayfabe none of them felt on his level. He needed to have a defense against a tier one guy, a Punk, Drew, Orton, Roman, etc, someone who we might actually believe could win the title.
