    Nope. He eliminated someone, Ambrose I think, and then was eliminated straight away as well.

    Nia wins and gives her Mania spot to her cousin, The Rock.

    I was just going to say that I would rather see R-Truth win the Rumble then anyone else in the the ring. But I guess that's not happening. Not that it was ever going to begin with.

    Randy Orton has just won the hearts of the Internet wrestling community. This Rumble is truly historic.

    Nia thats for becky you munter


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,108 ✭✭✭johnnysmack


    Hahah this is actually brilliant! That felt like a long over due punishment!

    She's awful but that was pretty awesome.

    Interesting final 4


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,386 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Rollins is the logical answer here. I didn't even know he was still in it, but now that I see he's still in, I'm backing Rollins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,094 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Ugggghhhhhh


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭xpletiv


    from 4 to 1 very quickly. Happy. Well done Seth, much deserved, best performer last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,927 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Damn it to that posters who didn't read the title

    Suppose it's not that bad and would be even a better swerve if he choose Daniel Bryan instead of Brock

    Overall decent show but time for bed roll on raw


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,220 ✭✭✭Cotts72


    Wasted an hour of sleep there...


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,386 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Overall I thought this year's Rumble was pretty decent, but the 30 Man Rumble matches themselves were kind've dull I thought. If Becky hadn't of won, I would have written off the women's match completely. The men's match wasn't much to watch, very few surprise entrants or moment to keep me entertained.

    The other matches on the show was the best part of the PPV. Becky/Asuka, Ronda/Sasha, Lesnar/Balor, Bryan/Styles were pretty decent matches.

    What we saw there cannot be underestimated.....male on female violence!! :eek: Supposedly something only "neckbeards" are interested in seeing and it was bloody amazing. The actually had me going once I saw her and I was ready to walk away for good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,600 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    The Nia appearance was something different at least, really annoying that she eliminated Mustafa though

    Enjoyed the men's rumble overall, I've been following the betting odds though so the winner was as expected

    I've been pretty positive on WWE lately. 205 and NXT are great shows and Smackdown has been excellent with the Becky stuff and the WWE title feud. But AJ/Bryan was sent to die imo. Sandwiched between the Rumble matches and right after the crowd went crazy for Becky winning. There was just no response.

    The match was good, but was too long. You could tell the crowd was exhausted. It should have been ten minutes shorter and done in a sprint style. It's like context doesn't matter for WWE. Your main eventers get 20 plus minutes even though you know it's not the right moment for it. The screw finish made things worse.

    Went to sleep after Becky’s win. I was delighted with that after being disappointed that she tapped earlier. The men’s Rumble being spoiled here didn’t make me want to stay awake for it. I’ll watch some of the rest of the show later.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Rollins winning was not spoiled. It was obvious when he lost the IC title they were moving him up to face Lesnar.
    Not a lot of other options to win it. Pretty sure most were tipping him to win it the last few weeks if not months. Unless Reigns unlikely came back I didn't see any options. McIntyre or Strowman were never winning it & they really built up a grand total of zero contenders from Smackdown the last few months.
    Looking at the entrants for the Rumble the vasr majority of them are still up in the air on what they'll do at WrestleMania which shows how cold most talent are.

    It was confirmed by the odds being posted which took away any slim chance of a surprise. I’d call that spoiled and I know a lot of others on here felt similarly.

    Seriously, the person posting odds here after a mod warning regarding the same is a d1ck, plain and simple. Clear intention imo to spoil the event for others.

    Fell asleep last night, missed the event but catching up this morning now.

    Can I just again state how much I absolutely despise Alicia Fox. What is the purpose of her hanging around/.

    Well thats why I avoid social media if there anything I dont want spoilt.

    Im the Wrestling equivalent of the wrestler who hides under the ring during a rumble.

    I was thinking Drew coukd be a possibility. Big E was in my thoughts. All behind Strowman and Rollins tho.

    I’m not saying it was unexpected but you have a 5-10% chance of it not being Rollins which is reduced to a 0.05% chance when you see he’s 1/3 just before the event starts. It was annoying.
