Well that was a head scratcher

hitman1116 · 01-25-2015, 10:49 PM

So now we'll have

Reigns v. Lesnar
Rusev v. Cena (just set up on the after show)
Taker v. Wyatt (if Taker is a go)
Sting v. Triple H
Rollins v. Ambrose (maybe?)
Ziggler, Orton, Bryan, Barrett somehow have nothing to do

I'd say I was pretty close to right.

Yep, me too, post #11510

sjim8660 · 01-25-2015, 10:51 PM

well, lol. At least that triple threat match was legit great. Rollins will cash in at WM after Roman beats Brock. and that will start a feud between Rollins and Roman.

BoxBreaker72 · 01-25-2015, 10:51 PM

That wasn't even worth 9.99

natbornkiller · 01-25-2015, 10:52 PM

Is it wrong to hope
that reigns loses his spot at wm by the end of the next ppv
or him to require another hernia surgery

hitman1116 · 01-25-2015, 10:53 PM

there we go WWE let Rock do the talking

Which is why everyone has to pay the standard $50+ to see the ending they want.

persona · 01-25-2015, 10:54 PM

That was the worst Rumble I can remember in recent years.
Rusev vs Cena could be interesting.

Ty Hope · 01-25-2015, 10:54 PM

Good post on another site

"Oh my god, the end of the Rumble was the most desperate attempt to force Vince's choice down fans' throats I've ever seen. They had Reigns alone against two hated heels who eliminated the fans' second and third choices to win, AND they had the Rock give him a rub, AND AND they had him surprise eliminate Mr. Anti-America at the very end, AND AND AND they brought out the Authority to give the fans someone to boo louder at."

WalterAZ31 · 01-25-2015, 10:55 PM

that was just bad, its as if they desperately wanted to top how bad the RUmble match was last year, and they succeeded

they keep force feeding "face" roles, even 19 years after The ROck debuts as Rocky Maivia, and they still keep trying to force who the fans are supposed to get behind

just mind boggling

hitman1116 · 01-25-2015, 10:57 PM

really can't wait for the Austin podcast with Triple H. Really hope he tries to make H talk about the split between him and McMahon

BoxBreaker72 · 01-25-2015, 10:57 PM

This is going to be worse than the Batista aftermath last year.

Ty Hope · 01-25-2015, 10:59 PM

Well, I'm at work in Japan now. It's noon. Read the pbp. Reminded me of why I only watch Japanese wrestling 99% of the time these days.

BoxBreaker72 · 01-25-2015, 11:01 PM

Remember when a guy got over organically and the fans made the push?

WWE has lost their soul. It's all about the dollar now, which is fine, but it's sad.

dbackschamp2001 · 01-25-2015, 11:01 PM

I really liked the first half of the rumble match, but when Bryan was eliminated there was no doubt who would win.

I was thinking the exact same thing.
Royal Rumble use to be my favorite PPV of the year and in last few years it has become a complete joke.

DannyHultzenFan · 01-25-2015, 11:02 PM

well....best part of the rumble main event was bubba ray dudley in the ring not as "bully ray" for the first time in 10 years lol but why no devon!!

I don't know about that. Batista literally came out of nowhere and won. That was terrible, at least Roman is a young guy and we get the concept of WWE trying to push him, people just don't want Roman. Batista is washed up and has nothing left in the tank.

Reigns has been more over in his career and a better wrestler, So fans can cry and whine all they want but Lesnar vs Reigns is going to be hard hitting and damn good.

persona · 01-25-2015, 11:03 PM

Roman Vs Brock will have the worst promo ever in the history of wrestling.

Remember though, they cheered Batista until it was clear he was taking Bryans spot in the fans eyes. Then it turned.

Wolves4Life · 01-25-2015, 11:04 PM

WWE gave Bryan the ball and Bryan fumbled it, How can WWE know they can count on Bryan to be the top guy if Bryan proved WWE was right the first time?

More over than Batista in his career? You have lost your mind.
