Barring a massive surprise return, I'm all for McIntyre winning this.

 

[Torgo]

Wow

 

[Sun Wukong]

That pop was massive. I'm assuming this means McIntyre and Lesnar at WM.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Great pop for the Rated R Superstar.

 

[Sun Wukong]

Worst kept secret for a while now had been him showing up for the Rumble, but still cool to see him back.

Yeah. Every denial interview he gave said he was going to be there.

As long as it isn't Reigns and Lesnar, I'm good.

So much this...

 

[GrandAdmiral]

I guess Rollins is #30.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Definitely ok with this finish.

Same. This whole show was one of the best Rumbles in a while.

Yeah. You take out the Brock crap and it was a solid A and sets up what could be a good Road to WM.

Yes, best Rumble in a long time. I actually had no problem with the way Brock was booked in the match. It made him look incredibly strong which made Drew look even stronger.

I am happy we didn't see Cain Velasquez come in to be the one to take out Brock. I am glad we didnt see Roman win again. I started to get worried there for a second. The only thing I was disappointed in tha Beock didn't throw Rey into the 16th row. Rey's distance was subpar Brock, c'mon man.

Women's Rumble outcome was predictable for sure. But I love the Mandy Otis story. We are gonna see a love triangle with them and the destruction of fire and ice.

Edge, does indeed still have it, although AJ Styles hurt his shoulder trying to oversell the spear.

Beth Phoenix...wow. she is tough. That was a nasty cut on her head.

So I watched the Rumble last night and it was the first PPV I have watched in a few months. I have not been keeping up with RAW/SDL/NXT at all.

PPV has a whole was decent.
The non Rumble matches were all just kind of meh, except for Bryan/ Fiend which was really good except for the just kind of weak ending. Good match though.

The Women's rumble was good. Nothing crazy. Naomi was impressive again. Charlotte wining was fine. Just one more thing to add to her resume.

The Men's rumble was good once Brock was gone. Just so typical. I am just so ready for Brock to go away. I just don't see the point of him being there. I just don't find him very entertaining anymore. Just very predicable stuff. Like McIntyre eliminating him though.
Really good once Edge came in. He looked good.
I guess we will get Lesnar vs. McIntyre at mania now. O.k. i guess.

I see your point there. I'm still sick of Brock in the spotlight killing off all the talent Vince is wasting away.

Women's Rumble outcome was predictable for sure. But I love the Mandy Otis story. We are gonna see a love triangle with them and the destruction of fire and ice.

Otis/Mandy might be the best (if not the funniest) thing going on SDL. It sucks that it might lead to the end of Fire & Desire, but I'm ok with that as I think Sonya has been ready for a singles push.

Edge, does indeed still have it, although AJ Styles hurt his shoulder trying to oversell the spear.

Yeah. With the beard, he definitely looks aged, but he performed well in the ring. Glad he's back. That leaves Paige to return now.

Beth Phoenix...wow. she is tough. That was a nasty cut on her head.

Dude, I missed the bump she took so I was like, "When did Beth dye her hair?" That's how much she bled last night. She was definitely concussed from the looks of the replay, but she soldiered on like a trooper. Props to her.
