Dolfan in NYC

Bray vs D-Bry had normal lights, guess WWE is dropping the red lights.

Glad Drew won. Enjoyed seeing Brock destroy all those midcarders.

I knew Charlotte would win the women's rumble. Can't wait for all the seethe.

I think there were a bunch of missed opportunities in the first half of the Rumble. Everyone should have gotten as much attention/shine as Benjamin did (and he got it by not doing anything but making Brock seem a little different for a moment). The thing was, guys like Bruan and Lee (let alone someone like Morrison or Cesaro) sort of had to get eaten by Brock to make the Drew thing work. Then it was on them to make it matter in the back half and the finish meant that it did almost regardless of everything else (they should have probably given Drew a bit more shine in there after the first few eliminations). 

Everyone killing Rollins felt very, very good after last year's horroshow finish. Orton was more excited about Edge's abs than anything in years.

Said it a hundred times and probably have to say it 100 more,  Charlotte is what people THINK Roman Reigns is.   I really have no idea what you do with Charlotte at WM that she hasn't done about 150 times with Becky or Bayley

The women's match was great with a horrible ending.  the men's match was a terrible beginning (unless you are a huge Brock fan) with a great 2nd half once Drew got in

Men's Rumble was pretty awesome. I think they dragged Brock's elimination a couple spots too long but it was like "It's Your Life" the Brock version with Kofi coming out and then Rey Mysterio and then Shelton his college roommate etc..    The interaction with Keith Lee was fucking awesome.  Edge showing up was cool.  Drew winning is cool.  

The less said about the ungodly awful women's Rumble..... the better.

I love how with the hundreds of years of combined experience in the back, and no one thought the crowd would turn on that false KO finish in the Asuka/Lynch match.

Match was good.

Roman Reigns taking the heat of eliminating Edge so someone like Rollins didn't get the honors, and so Drew didn't have to dirty up his big win is why he's the best. I fucking love that guy.

Aleister Black jumping the gun on the Rollins attack, Rollins shoving him off so he can get his shit in, and then CLEARLY looking back at Black like "C'mon break this up NOW" was...a moment.

The women's rumble was really ugly to watch. The talent gulf between the best and the rest is really wiiiiiiiiiiiiide, and the Rumble really highlights it. And some of the best ones get dumped really quickly. They are clearly not taken seriously.
