Spontaneous Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I'll give them this, Reigns at 30 guaranteed Orton would get a good reaction. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I thought this was literally the best booked Rumble in years most of the way. And then Roman came out. And then the final three happened. How is that not a Roman heel turn? He gets a title match earlier in the show but he has so little faith that he'll actually win that he enters the Rumble too? (I guess they can use the excuse that Rollins lost his spot so Roman got it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Whole Strowman things makes no sense. Doesn't get a program now with Roman as he's moved on to Taker fifteen minutes later. Gets eliminated out of nowhere by Baron Corbin. Why make him look like a monster if he's not going to do anything? Unless we're getting a Godzilla/Mothra showdown with Corbin at Mania I guess? Or are they just killing time for another battle royal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramo2653 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Overall I think this was a good PPV (I didn't catch the pre-show I'll probably watch the matches in a sec). But I was racking my brain about who would come in at 30 then when Roman's music hit I was shocked and not in a good way. And I actually like Roman. I'm interested to see where Bailey/Charlotte goes since that was a clean victory. But we have another PPV to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 People dislike the Rumble match because for 20 minutes it was light pitter patter to allow the ring to fill up for everyone to then take naps for Brock and Goldberg, and to then take really bad looking eliminations from Undertaker. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 C'mon. If you guys honestly think for a second it's Cena/Orton at Mania... And Roman turned heel (Cole was even like, "something's happened to him"), so that's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisM Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Cena/Styles > Omega/Okada. Rest of the show was great, too. Orton winning the RR was a real surprise, to me at least. So I guess we see Bray vs. Orton at WM after Bray wins the title at EC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 This Rumble would have been really good without the part timers. I hate when guys are just laying around waiting to be eliminated, and especially when a guy the size of Luke Harper gets flung out so easily. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Vince is as high on Bayley as the IWC. He probably sees her as the female Eugene. Only person I can see taking the belt off Charlotte is Nia Jax. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 At least they didn't have Nakamura come in at 27 and no-sell last night's leg injury. Bad ending, but good that Tye gets a bigger paycheck tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_MJ_ Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 They'll obviously tease Orton Vs. Cena with the history and all. They'll probably pull the trigger on Bray Vs. Orton instead. Yeah, the Rumble ending was a lot guys destroying themselves for Taker and Goldberg spots,, but you knew that heading in. I was cool with Orton winning although I think they could do the same storyline with Bray winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Jericho's mugging and getting knocked out, waking up and getting knocked out again was the best part of the entire Rumble. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 While Cena vs AJ was good, it wasn't as good as Okada vs Omega. Let's not get silly. Undertaker really needs to hang it up. He looks terrible. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the Strowman vs. Reigns feud will take a back seat for the most part and they will probably have a match or two on RAW with Taker costing Reigns to setup their match at WM.

JCM Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The Rumble match was enjoyable until #30 came out. Stroman was the easy MVP of that match, and the first half was excellent. Cena winning #16 was actually a cool moment, but I'm beyond sick of the Big Match John style. Charlotte has joined Roman in having go away heat with me.
