    One of their biggest shows of the year and almost an hour in all we've gotten are, what seems to be randomly thrown together, tag matches with little to no backstory. They've got over 5 hours of weekly television, how can that be the case?

    When Bob Holly had a reputation for sandbagging younger wrestlers and sandbagged him for the entire match. Screw Holly. Complete pr*ck.

    He nearly broke his own neck doing a Shooting Star Press (to Kurt Angle).

    What are you talking about? Brock was being notably more careful than usual and had to carry the match after Taker got his concussion.

    Yes, after the concussion, prior to that he was his notoriously stiff self. He does have a history of not taking the best of care in execution. I doubt its deliberate but does have those moments, and I would like somebody a bit more reliable than Lesnar to work with Sting given that Sting is old, more fragile and might only ever have one match in the company.

    It's the strongest "upper card with a ****e rest of card" PPV I can remember in some time.

    Apart from the Rumble and the 3 way what else is left after this match?

    I feel Nikki's tit job has led to her arse being underrated.

    He did break Hardcore Holly's neck. Though Holly was not exactly blameless.

    True, I'd even make a case that the Rumble match haa been as poorly hyped as I can remember. It'll be fun I'm sure but my basis for wanting to see it is the reputation of the match rather than anything WWE have done in the last month to get us ready for it.

    Yeah they haven't really built it up at all.
    The WWEWHC match is built well but with 3 hours of raw alone a week, you'd think every match on a card would have some sort of build.

    Cody doesn't do the bizarre oddball thing as well as Dustin. Goldust is so much better at it, Cody just seems forced.

    That behind the scenes look of WM 30 on the Network tomorrow night looks good. They're hyping the aftermath of Undertaker's concussion and Vince taking him to hospital.

    Part of me was hoping he would ignore it. It was incredibly awkward. Nattie is awful

    Would be great if Big Show was eliminated after 20 seconds.

    No such luck though, he'll probably make it to the final four.

    The WWE do chose the most generic dross for their PPV theme songs.

    The staredown with Cena pointing towards the Wrestlemania sign at the end of a PPV would be an iconic Royal Rumble moment.

    For sure. They all just blend into one but apparently Vince loves this brand of "Rock"
