This is Kane's year!

Two of my favorite quotes from the Rumble!

"Remember, this is every man for themselves! There are no teams!"
"Business is about to pick up!"

Has a debuting wrestler ever won the Rumble before?

Didn't Ric Flair "debut" at the Rumble and win the title?

As much as I would love to see that happen, it's Big Show's year. That kid has so much talent. Definitely one of WWE's better young guns.

Its spelled Braun Strowman.

Anybody able/want to post short match results for takeover? Not able to watch tonight

Wolves4Life · 01-28-2017, 09:42 PM

AOP won tag titles
Overrated Asuka won again.
Strong beat Almas
Young beat Tye
World Title is now.

Jericho · 01-28-2017, 09:46 PM

Gargano & Ciampa losing the Titles already is terrible, especially to the AOP. And that women's 4 way was ridiculous. Now was the time to take the title off Asuka. She didnt even have to get pinned to lose it so they could have done it that way if needed. And Wolves mentioned overrated and look here comes Nakamura......

People stopped caring about Asuka, People still care about Nakamura almost a year later. Asuka has been in the ring with good competition so she has yet to get exposed. Her vs Moon should be interesting.

Jericho · 01-28-2017, 09:52 PM

Yeah Nakamura's schtick got old with me long ago. Samoa Joe was far and away better than him in that feud IMO. And Moon is an amazing talent been a fan of hers for years, hope they do have her take the title. I like Nikki Cross alot too though

fazzle · 01-28-2017, 09:53 PM

Asuka I feel gets some undeserved knocks against her. The NXT women's roster is the weakest it's ever been, so obviously her matches are gonna be underwhelming. Who else is even *average* right now, let alone good?

Cross and Asuka will probably be bridge feud to Asuka and Moon i'm guessing since she was taken out quick.

Ember Moon and Nikki Cross are 2 that I would say are above average. Especially Moon

Nakamura call-up soon?

Becky Bayless (Cookie lol in TNA) trying to stay relevant by twitter feuding with Liv Morgan with an overreaction to a harmless tweet during Billie and Peyton's entrance.

He won the Rumble (and title) in his first Rumble match, but he did not debut at the Rumble.
According to his Wiki, he holds the "record" for the shortest amount of time between his debut and his Rumble win (113 days).

So, if Samoa Joe debuts and wins, then obviously they have huge plans for him, immediately.

Ty Hope · 01-29-2017, 01:55 AM

Glad to see Asuka still kicking ass. A great friend and truly good person. She worked SO hard to get where she's at. Loves her fans too.

CharlieHustle · 01-29-2017, 02:12 PM

NXT Takeover was good. Nakamura / Roode was better than I thought it would be as I'm not much of a fan of Roode.

The Seth Rollins run in was interesting. It looks like they're going with the same story that Triple H has done for several years...

Triple H: "I'm Triple H and I'm too great of an opponent for you".
Other Guy: "Well I'm going to harass you until you give me a match".
Triple H: "Go ahead, you're not bothering me".
Other Guy: "How about this"?
Triple H: "That's it, you want a match, you've got a match".

I just hope they bring something new to the table with the telling of this story. Otherwise, it's the same story.
