    Another filler match. When was the last time the WWE title or Universal title changed hands at the rumble?

    Just remembered there was no Iconics either in the Rumble. Odd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    At least there are no red lights thankfully

    How viable is this fiend gimmick ??

    Taker and kane were the first of the kind

    It would depend on how invested WWE is with the character. Bray has obviously put a lot of effort to make the character what it is right now, but for it the stay viable he would need WWE's support much like The Undertaker has had WWE's support since his debut and Undertaker has done really well for himself out of it.

    That was brilliant by cole

    The Fiend is hardly losing when it has it's own Twitter icon tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    The Fiend wins. I'll have to rewatch this match tomorrow.

    Jesus hes been through worse than being beaten with a belt by a fat lad in a mask


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭The White Feather

    Yeah a bit over the top to say the least!

    maybe doing it so people dont get pissed when he's not in the rumble ? either way, it was way over the top


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    That match seemed to drag on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Here we go. Don't have a wardrobe malfunction this year Becky like last year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Becky has been keeping this feud going on her own. Asuka needs a mouthpiece or manager badly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy

    asuka doesn't need a manager. She just needs to cut promos in english or Japanese. She needs to stick to Japanese and rant and rave as it sounds better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Asuka is fine ranting in Japanese. It's when she tries to speak in English, then crowds begin What-ing and become uninterested.

    Anyway, g'wan Becky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I'm a big fan of both Becky and Asuka so I'm slightly conflicted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,387 ✭✭✭Cotts72


    Kairi's behaviour at ringside is gas


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Thankfully Asuka is okay after being in the middle of a shooting incident in Las Vegas.

    Americans are racist, anytime there is a foreigner they're turned heel.

    If i'm being honest, I kind've want Asuka to win. If only to drive the idea that Becky still can't beat Asuka and allow that storyline to continue to develop. Becky would get her win eventually, but the struggle is what makes it appealing I think. The idea that Asuka constantly has Becky's number really adds to the drama.

    But I don't think Becky will lose tonight.

    she's great, i love her


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Just want Becky to win this asap so she can move on to a better feud


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Becky gets zero airtime on those top rope drop kicks and leg drops. Straight down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Jesus that top rope move from Becky was sloppy as ****.


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Anna Numerous Shuffleboard


    Asuka's suspenders gear haha


    Great selling by Becky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Becky wins. The green mist was involved but not in a way that hit Becky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Is the men's Royal Rumble the only thing left ? I need to go to the leaba as I'd a busy weekend.

    Thought she was going for a spanish fly out of the ring instead a disappointing botched Rock bottom

    Clever way to use the green mist.

    Street Profits are class


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,522 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I can feel my eyes closing. Lads enjoy the mens rumble. I'll watch it early tomorrow morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    I think I'm just too old to get the Street Prophets schtick. It annoys me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    These ***** need to piss off.

    Cain.

    Forgot all about him!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Old Elias would've mocked the Houston Astros for being cheaters and got nuclear heat. Instead they've neutered him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    This feels like how a rumble goes in the 2K games, plod about throwing lads over 1 by 1 until you win.

    Ffs cain velasquez is going to eliminate Brock or Rey


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


    Jesus that was some elimination


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Brock is angry because he's working longer than 10 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,574 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Brilliant! I loved Brock getting rid of new day!

    Was just gonna say that haha 😂


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    I didn’t want this to happen

    But they’ve booked it great so far


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,462 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Say what you will about Brock Lesnar but his booking is phenomenal. He really does look like an absolute beast when he's in the ring.


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


    This is actually pretty great so far!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,252 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    I hate Nakamura.

    I hate the IC belt.

    I hate Nakamura being IC champion.

    Edit: Dumped out like he's nothing. Delighted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    I wonder if this is a test, Vince is sending in lads 1 by 1 to see who he'd like to see face Brock haha.
