Royal Rumble

GARBAGE!!!!

Then they walk out saying nothing.

No Sting? Even though they started the PPV talking about how they were going to do anything to keep him from showing up?

You know, to anyone not watching, you could say "And then Undertaker comes out in a bunny costume and beats up kids in the audience!" and someone is bound to believe you!

Lesnar winning was awesome. Rest of the card sucked. Where was Sting?

And to tease that he might be in the rafters. Then, nothing. Dicks.

 

[iowajerms]

I was super excited about the Royal Rumble match. Extremely disappointed with how it went.

 

[Mistaken4193]

This was Honesty the most boring predictable Royal Rumble match in history. Should have at least had Reigns and DB final 2 to make it less predictable.

 

[iowajerms]

Seth Rollins was the star today and not even close.

Rusev and Cena will be a rivalry now.

 

[jeffro151]

They just teased tension between Cena and Rusev on the post show.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Oh and WTF happened to Curtis Axel??? I never seen him get eliminated.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Ambrose or Ziggler should have won this Rumble.

Have Ziggler have more of an impact in the match would have been good. Agree that it should have come down to Bryan and Reigns.

I don't think he even made it halfway down the ramp.

 

[iowajerms]

I also just noticed, The Rock didn't even work the crowd.

Reigns has wrestled one PPV singles match in his career. He's also a liability on the mic.

If they really are invested in making this guy the future of the company for the next decade be patient with him. Wait until next year to have him main event WM if his promo and ring work are ready. You're tuning the crowd against him with the rushed push.

He should have given Rusev his first pin at WM this year. That would have been a good WM moment

 

[Mistaken4193]

I didn't think I could get worse than last year,but it did. Once DB was eliminated everyone knew who was going to win.

I agree with this. At least continue his rivalry with Big Show.

I just hope The Rock will be his voice for the next few months.

 

[Mistaken4193]

They got the roles backwards for the Ex-Shield members going forward. Seth Rollins should be the next top Face of the WWE and Reigns should be a Brock Lesnar type of heel with a manager to do the talking for him.

I tuned in time to see the Triple Threat and the RR. Triple Threat was pretty damn good. The RR? Not so much. I did enjoy the crowd shitting all over it though. What should be just as alarming to WWE besides Reigns' reaction was the total lack of reaction for 95% of everyone else. Outside of Bryan, Ziggler, and the surprise return of Bubba Ray, no one gave a damn about anything. Not a good look.

And there's Reigns winning and the match itself. The story they told was shit,with little drama or exciting moments. Reigns winning is just dumb especially considering WWE knows its a bad move. Wanna know how I know they realize its a mistake? The Rock showed up. They invited The Rock for the sole purpose of hoping his presence would give rub to Reigns and prevent a revolt. It didn't. Reigns just isn't ready and it will be really damaging to him long term if they don't get creative with him and spin this. They should probably just embrace the hate and make him heel. This is "Bootista" all over again. Vince is so out of touch he fell for the same thing twice

Yeah, I've been saying how awful Reigns STILL is on the mic and he just won't ever get good. Some guys just aren't going to have mic skills. Can't believe I'm saying this, but hopefully Lesnar beats him. I was very close to getting the Network again...so glad I didn't.

Unless they do something special with WM, I'm out for the year...
