Now they're just using each other's moves...

If Cena drops the RKO, I retire.

EDIT: DISREGARD.

And FUCK YOU Cena. :lol:

 

[JayDizzle]

That Wyatt Family attack on Cena could have gone over better.

Sure, it was telegraphed with Orton mentioning Bray's name but it went over like a wet fart in church.

Helluva a sell-job by Cena yet again btw. ete:

 

[JayDizzle]

I love you for every reason under the sun, Duggan.

Your pick of Ziggler is awesomesauce... but the dream's dead and buried.

 

[MrBill]

Hacksaw just doesn't look right in a suit and/or without a 4x4 on his shoulder.

 

[Spidey]

That Kofi jump thing was stupid. Rusev catches him, sets him on the barrier and air humps him a couple time. Makes TONS of sense.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Nothing breaks up an awesome Shield/Wyatts showdown quite like fuckin Ryback coming out.

 

[Spidey]

LOL at the crowd chanting Daniel Bryan, yes, and booing that he wasn't in the rumble.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Fans actually cheered Rey getting tossed.

Punk QUICKLY learns that you NEVER headbutt a Samoan.

Guessing this is where the Tag Team split happens...

We get some Castagnoli/Luke Harper goodness as they go after each other.

Reminds me of the ROH days.

-JB FUCKIN' L is NEXT.

I LOVE IT.

Reigns chucks his out as he gives his coat to Michael Cole.

First entry into the Rumble... ruined.

The Crowd is PISSED.

Fuck this Company :lol:

 

[JayDizzle]

Reigns has the record for eliminations but the fuckin' Rumble goes to Batista.

Knew it was coming when Bryan wasn't in.

Still sucks.

 

[Spidey]

Have fun with that WWE. Your headlining face for wrestlemania just go booed out of the arena (at least I assume the intention was for him to be the face vs Orton).

Also, I have no idea if I am alone on this, but would Rey Mysterio retire already. He no longer is remotely entertaining to me and has degraded into a more agile John Cena in the sense that every match/appearence is the same set of 5 or so moves. Loved him in the past, now he cant go away soon enough.

 

[Leftwich]

Warner i need you to tell me everything is alright.

 

[krulmichael]

Lol at the crowd shitting all over the PPV when Bryan wasn't coming out. Fuck Batista. Only way they can justify this now is if Bryan faces Taker at WM.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

They didn't even tease Bryan in the Rumble. They told you he wasn't going in...and they stuck with it.

They have Mania completely mapped out and have had it for a few months...they ain't breakin it for nobody.

Batista/Orton
Cena/Wyatt
Probably Lesnar/Undertaker
Punk v. Triple H
Then probably Bryan v. Sheamus but they'll "make good" and give'em time.
You'll also get some sort of Shield Breakup Match and I'm guessing Cody v. Goldust and a Divas match. Tag titles will curtain jerk the pre-show.

There are your 9 matches.

 

[OnlyOneBeerLeft]

what a terrible, terrible move... you could feel it as the match was ending, the crowd boos matched mine

 

[BigBiss]

just asked for a refund on my mania tickets ... dought i'll get it but wow, bad bad bad

 

[dave]

Imagine the pop if Daniel Bryan had come out at #30 ... hell, Bray Wyatt at 29, then Bryan at 30. They could have salvaged this with Roman Reigns winning legit, but of course they're too stupid and go for the old guy who can't wrestle and will bore the hell out of everyone at WM. And they should have started the show with Cena-Orton ... those two got killed trying to follow up the first two matches. The Big Show-Lesnar dragged on a bit, but was more interesting than Cena-Orton ... and, suffice to say, Wyatt-Bryan killed both, but at least the fans weren't booing during Big Show-Lesnar and seemed legitimately into the event. Cena-Orton. Ugh. Cena can work with the good workers, but Orton ain't one of them.

 

[EmpireWF]

They should be looking to pull out all the stops for WM this year because after all, it's more important in the business sense than usual. They're "giving" it away with the start of the WWE Network deal, so it's in their best interests to get as much interest in the product as possible between now and April.

So, what screams EPIC LEVELS OF EXCITEMENT?

RANDY ORTON & BIG DAVE OF COURSE!


complete head-scratcher

Cena-Orton was not really a bad match .... thats just not want ant one wants to buy right now.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Warner i need you to tell me everything is alright.

Nope, they are just completely tone deaf.

Forget Orton/Cena, we knew nobody cared about that.

The Rumble match layout was pretty bad and showed how tone deaf they really are. I have no problem with Bryan not being in the match because they never said he would be. The problem is they were too stupid to realize that they put Sheamus, Mysterio,and Batista in a death spot but not only not delivering Bryan, but having those guys come in late when people were getting nervous about not getting him. As a result, Sheamus looked like a geek for his big return, and Batista looked like a geek for winning.

Should have called an audible at around #20 when it was obvious they were getting nervous about Bryan. They wanted Reigns when Bryan never came out, so give 'em Reigns. You have two months to book yourself out of it.

They are a tone deaf company, and tonight they paid.
