Funny how they buried:
Ziggler, Ambrose, Bryan, Wyatt, and the start of Rusev...
Bryan (who shouldn't have necessarily won) should have been in for a while longer
Ziggler, Ambrose, and even Wyatt were eliminated like little bitches. Big Show punches them and Kane and him gently placed them over the top like rag dolls.
Rusev had the total upper hand but did nothing with it then got speared and threw out. Now he's getting ready to be fed to Cena.
So overall the put over:
Roman Reigns and... Big Show and Kane? WHY!?!?

Oh. Hold on, I've gotta screecap this. You're gonna feel like a damn fool now because you assumed. This was my original thought on the Rumble: I haven't cried at all because I like Roman Reigns. I thought this was a poor way to go about the putting him to the top, but I haven't stopped liking him. Personally, I think it'll hurt him, but only time will tell. Now, you go back to assuming and making an ass out of yourself. [brI Im so sorry I didn't get to read through this whole thread to see what everyone thought. Truly I'm deeply sorry and I hope you accept my sincere heart felt apology. If you mean it, sure, no worries. I barely ever complain and usually just go like with the flow of things. Seriously, unless Erick Rowan ends up as the face of the company, I'm not likely to whine. About wrestling anyway, heh...

You guys are way more than upset about this whole situation. There you go again, making this absurd generalization statement. I disliked the match and the result but I'm not "OMG I'M GONNA CANCEL MY NETWORK SUB". We're allowed to be upset with the product. What irks most of us is the people who talk down and belittle us for our opinions while grouping us in with the people who are so upset they're creating anti-WWE Twitter accounts. Generally when I don't like the song on the radio I just change the station to find something better. It's not like this is a one time thing for you guys because you complain each week but yet still watch it. If your favorite doesn't win then its like the world is ending. I can imagine this place if it were around for some of the attitude era/ WCW stuff.

I can imagine this place if it were around for some of the attitude era/ WCW stuff. Sigh. Here we go again. 1) I'm not complaining every single week. I'm actually one of the people who enjoys the product still and that's evidenced by my blog. You are grouping everyone together again and being wrong for it. 2) I don't dislike the WWE so I'm not going to change the station. There are still plenty of things I enjoy. I disagree with the finish and am not happy with it, so I should stop watching pro wrestling all together right? Also, if I was that mad and chose to cancel my network, wouldn't people consider it overreacting? Would I not be a dumb smark who is going overboard? 3) Please let's stop with the whole "your favorite didn't win and you're mad" argument. Chip said it best last night. Isn't that how wrestling works? When the guy you like wins, you're happy. When he loses, you're supposed to be disappointed. I'm incredibly invested in Daniel Bryan, so what type of fan would I be if I wasn't disappointed that he lost? Please think before you post.

im so tired of the whiners....that being the ones who are whining MORE about people whining than the actual people whining. ReignswinsLoL started WAAAAYYY last year. A lot of people were talking about how the WWE was making sure he was the guy getting the pins in matches, the announcers were talking about how much of a powerhouse he was barely mentioning the other guys, he eliminated 12 guys in the rumble last year! they rigged a Slammy so he would be "Superstar of the Year" with his highlights of 2014 being.....he eliminated 12 guys in the rumble. And he like beat Orton once. The last couple of guys with rockets strapped to their backs were Sheamus & Del Rio AND NEITHER ONE OF THOSE GUYS MAIN EVENTED WRESTLEMANIA But you know what? They put asses in the seats just like everyone else. They became big stars because there was balance. There wasn't this constant reminder of how Sheamus is the greatest powerhouse in wrestling history....or Del Rio didn't win 900 matches It's not about Reigns. It's about the fact that he hasnt done a ING thing to deserve this kind of mega push that everyone in the business KILLS THEMSELVES trying to get, but gets completely buried by the big boys in Stamford because they aren't hand picked to be "their guy"

In short, Reigns winning wasn't the problem. The booking was the problem. I'm sure with all the staff and experience WWE has they could have made it so Reigns gets cheered when he won, even in Philly. I wrote a full review here: reddragonwrestling.blogspot.co.uk/Honestly I'm interested in how WWE reacts now.

Anyway, i want to say it again: Big Show and Kane in the final 4? In the 2015? Really? That's one of the multiple reasons why i didn't like the Rumble. I actually don't wanna see them in the final 4. Or in the Rumble. Or in a ring. Again. In 2015. Stop please.

Wow, we have so many trolls in here trying to provoke people. It's lame as hell.
The majority of fans were not happy the way the Rumble match down - calling them names and putting them down doesn't make you a "cool heel."

Yeah my thing when it comes to Rumble matches is that the last 3-4 guys involved should be guys who you can potentially see winning the match. Thats been an issue the last few years, not enough star power in the ring at the end. Rumbles today NEED to end with Cena, Orton, Sheamus, Bryan, Rollins, Ambrose, Wyatt, Ziggler as the last guys.

First of all, that Triple Threat Match was so good, I'm still struggling to get over how good it was. Brock Lesnar is simply unbelievable. I also don't believe that it was a work when he got hurt outside of the Ring. If it was, they would of made a deal of it, but they didn't show Brock for quite sometime until it was clear that something was going on in the background and they inevitably had no choice but to show it. Also, you could see Cena and Rollins were trying to buy as much time in the Ring as they could, using J&J over and over again. I was genuinely bricking it that they were going to have to go with a Plan B and write Brock off. The way he came back was just ridiculous though.
Now, the Royal Rumble Match. Listen, the reason they wrote Bryan out fairly early was that they knew there would be boo's and were clearly hoping they would die down by the end of the Match when Roman wins. Even the three Guys that followed Bryan's exit were Titus O'Niel etc so they definitely prepared for a good 5 minutes or so and thought that would do the job. Was a good few surprises too which were enjoyable.
Here's the thing. If the WWE Board feel that they have to book The Rock, purely to try and get Reigns a good reaction for when he wins, then surely that says it all and he shouldn't be winning it right now. They have nobody but themselves to blame with the reaction Roman Reigns got tonight. The Crowd aren't trying to be smart. They aren't trying to s*it on him because it's the new 'cool' thing to do. We can all see his potential, we know he has blood in the WWE, is a fan and has charisma and a physique. But the way he's so well protected, everything is so forced, un-natural, it just doesn't get the fans a chance to get behind him and only puts us off. Even the way the booked Big Show and Kane to easily eliminate a handful of people only for Reigns to ultimately throw them both out with ease, and then add undefeated Rusev onto that, comes across so scripted it does him more harm than good.
There is no reason for him to be able to do this, so he shouldn't, that's the thing. If Brock Lesnar, a physical specimen, a UFC Heavyweight Champion of the World, an all round Wrestling Champion took out the Big Show and threw him out, I would buy into it as i would believe it could be possible. If a sneaky, slimey Seth Rollins Character was to quickly crawl up from behind, low blow the Big Show and tip him over, I would believe that. But why should/would Roman Reigns, be able to just tipple the likes of Kane & The Big Show out, it just isn't believable kayfabe wise. I just can't buy into it. Part of me is wondering if they are going to double-turn Lesnar & Reigns on this long road to Wrestlemania now, or even add in The Rock to make it a Triple Threat.

Seeing as how WWE as been teasing tension between Miz and Mizdow lately, I think it'd be cool during the rumble to have Miz get eliminated by one of the Usos, then Mizdow would "eliminate" himself, but throw himself through the middle rope instead of over the top. Then have him mocking an irate Miz back up the entrance only for the refs to come to Mizdow that he hasn't been eliminated. Mizdow looks at Miz, Miz flips out, Mizdow gets back in the ring and could eliminate say the Usos or Gold and Stardust, only to be officially eliminated by an upset Miz who comes back out and eliminates Mizdow, or have Miz at least distract Mizdow causing the elimination, building more tension before their eventual split. This took me less than 5 minutes to come up with and you're telling me that what happened with Miz and Mizdow in the rumble last night was the best thing creative thought of? Especially how over Mizdow has gotten wrestling himself, they could have capitalized on that at least and made an entertaining moment other than what we got.
