Absolutely a piece of fucking bullshit.

What do you guys think?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I'm probably the only guy here who likes batista so...


WOOOOOOO!!!!! BATISTA!!!!!!
And Roman Reigns breaking Kanes record is pretty awesome.

Bryan/Wyatt stole the fucking show. Wasn't hard to do, but damn did they have an awesome match. Could've main evented the whole PPV, seeing how the Rumble turned out.

Super dumb.


Not sure how NAOs won the Tag Belts. Kinda glad- but that doesn't do anything for the Tag Division.

Daniel Bryan loses, which is dumb. They've had him losing to them for weeks. No difference at a PPV. (I didn't watch, but I guess this was the best part of the whole Pay Per View.)

Brock over Show. WTF was that? 4 moves, then a shit ton of chair shots?! WWE fucked up big.

Orton Cena... predictable. Like you didn't know Orton was gonna win?

Batista winning was just inevitable. I got shocked a tadbit when JBL was one of the spots. Would have been tight for him to eliminate a couple people. I'm assuming he was the only likely choice because someone got injured.

I'm very pissed that Jake The Snake wasn't even in it. Not sure if he was on the show in segments. But dude trained a whole fucking year just to get in. And he didn't have a spot. Then you got that dumbfucking Rousey dude... wtf is that?

WWE dropped a large shit on everyone.

It was stupid, predictable. I'm gonna check in with that Dolphin1925 dude and see if he predicted all the matches right.

Horrible. Thankfully I didn't pay for it. Thinking twice about not even watching Mania after this unless I get some great news on match ups.

The rumble has so much promise until that number 30 spot came out. Then it ended and the crowd let them know how everyone felt. I would have a least gotten a little chuckle out of Barrett being 30 rather Rey but why the hell do you give Rey Mysterio a death sentence with that spot?

Batista winning it is bullshit. You know you've fucked up big time when the fans were booing him out of the damn building.

The RR match itself was pretty average. Kofi, Kevin and JBL were the only shocking moments, and the last turned out to be a waste of time. El Torito was cool doe.

D-Bry vs. Eli James Bray Wyatt was awesome. It had a bit of a slow start, but it ended up stealing the show.

Brock-Show was also bullshit and boring as fuuuuck.

Cena-Orton was bland, and I think it was Orton's fault. Every time he had the advantage it was slow and boring, but Cena tried his damnest to liven it up, only for Randy to slow it right down again. The best bits, however, was when they used each others finishers, and when Randy kept fucking with the crowd.

Overall, I agree with Gilmour. 4/10. But possibly a 3/10, because I paid for it and the first match was the only one which was worth it.

First Rumble I've ever watched, and that'll probably be the last. Roman Reigns did look like a stud, and I was loving El Torito, but otherwise it was boring.

1X - GOAT.

Worst Royal Rumble I have ever seen.

The booking was just awful, how humiliating is it for Los Matadores that their mascot is more over than they are?

Not to mention, why on Earth would you bring a Face out at number 30 when everyone was waiting for DBryan - Now Mysterio might as well be fucking heel. Barrett should have come out with more "bad news" announcing that Bryan wouldn't be competing in the rumble. Now that would have been good and got Barrett some actual heat.

I've been a Daniel Bryan fan since Dragon Gate / ROH / etc. With that said.... think of the possible bigger picture...

1) Having D Bryan lose to Bray sucks for Bryan, but elevates Bray Wyatt. It probably doesn't hurt Daniel Bryan that much. Plus seeing The Wyatts attack Cena... this would be a good chance to elevate Bray to main event. I'm seeing Hogan mixed in with Cena against the Wyatts.

2) Not having Bryan come out of the Rumble brought heat on the WWE, which of course will result in heat to Triple H and Stephanie. Probably the most heat I've seen in a long time. This not only elevates the heat on The Authority... but probably will sweeten the chants even more for Daniel Bryan.

3) Batista was going to win the RR. No one should be shocked at that outcome, so would Daniel Bryan appearing in the RR as 30 only to get eliminated make it better or worse? See all the points I'm making to decide.

4) You're going to tune in to Raw, or read the results if you are fed up with it. Most will probably get the Network, not just because of the PPVs but because of the library, which means they will still get $ for the ppv.

5) More Daniel Bryan chants will probably happen due to the RR.

6) This leaves some sort of plan for Wrestlemania. My original thoughts before the RR were:
Batista vs. Brock Lesnar
John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt
Daniel Bryan vs. The Undertaker
Punk vs. HHH
Reigns vs. Ambrose vs. Rollins
And I have no idea where Sheamus or Orton would fit. I could possibly see Punk vs. Kane and Bryan vs. HHH. I could also see Taker vs. Brock again, and probably Batista vs. Orton (which would be just as bad as Brock vs. Batista).

Either way, hopefully this was used to make Bryan's Wrestlemania moment special to overcome the odds and be #1 somehow.

I don't care for Batista, Orton, or Sheamus. You have Ziggler, Big E, Bray, The Sheild, Cesaro, etc. that you could easily push to the moon along with Bryan, Punk, Cena, Brock, etc.

Just my few cents. This could have potential to make Wrestlemania bigger IF booked right, but let's face it.. WWE struggles with booking recently.

Gotta admit though Eli, putting Mysterio in at 30 was dumb!

So true though!

"Sorry guys, the machine wanted me nowhere near the Royal Rumble match. But I thank everyone for their support. YOU are the #YESMovement"

Can't tell if kayfabe or not... probably is, but I still think it's pretty interesting.

Having not watched it and only reading results and this thread, I must we dropped the ball big time on this.....wow but not surprising in the least I must say

Probably is kayfabe, but dat attention to continuity doe. I'm glad to see that whole Bryan vs. Authority angle hasn't gotten retconned yet.

I thought it was hilarious when Rey came out as #30 and got booed like crazy, poor Rey. The match was hard to watch after that, it was like the audience got kicked in the nuts.

They made out as if it was Rey's fault that he wasn't Daniel Bryan lol.

They should have had Bad News Barrett in at 30.

I would of rather seen Bad News Brown.

I've hated a lot of WWE PPVs but this one may be in the top 25 worst. FUCK, that says a LOT.

When you think about it, it isn't entirely WWE's fault as I assume they were originally going to have Batista win anyways however the website that leaked out his return kind of fucked over WWE... but still no notable surprises, they wasted so many different picks in the rumble it's insane and really idk what WWE is thinking by not having Bryan in a main event position... Daniel Bryan is basically the drawing power of Stone Cold back in the day in this current era and for some reason Vince doesn't wanna make more money...

i hope tonight on raw batista gets his ass kicked by bryan

I agree. It's like us having a Rumble and expecting Mark Flynn to enter last and getting me instead!

See what I did there?

Sorry I had to...
