The Royal Rumble is now the annual event where the WWE tells you what you want because fuck you.

Or do what they did last year...........with Bryan getting in somehow to make it a triple threat.

That was a disaster.

It will go down in history as one of the worst main events of all time.

Reigns getting the bootista treatment

I predicted Bryan wouldn't win the Rumble and got that right cunt.

because the pander to the WRONG demographics again as per usual

Reigns will lose the title match somehow. WWE isn't going to let their Mania main event get shit on.

wrestlemania main event doesn't have to be Ramon Reigns vs Brock Lesnar, can always be other ppl innit

If the Rock can't bring people to cheer there is a huge problem

I just don't know what to say about the RR match....

I man really those 3 finish !? What an anticlimactic finish

Don't cry into your beer glasses sheep.

Deez nuts sign

Rusev vs Rock cause he essentially screwed him over out of the main event

Current WWE logic applied in 1998 would have Ken Shamrock eliminate Steve Austin to win the Royal Rumble.

Lol at the crowd chanting for the guy who hates on America over Reigns.

Ok, that was awful. Rather have Bubba Ray win than this crap. At least the Uso on the left got the win so I won tipsters with 100% correct

Is Dean Ambrose still alive????

Wth gotta feel bad for reigns getting his moment shit on

they had two chances to bring it back and they fucked it up

Dont really think its a problem with the storyline that people are having, more so a shitty arranged rumble. Very....bleh.

I don't think this is the case, IMO. It's Philly. He's over in non-smark cities, like Cena.

lmao wow

Royal Rumble 2014 & 2015 in one image:

does Vince need to send a convoy of Brinks trucks to CM Punk's house to save this shit?

3 if you count Rusev

Uh oh they just had rusev get in cenas face backstage

Lets talk to cena

seeds are planted

Hear the crowd boo in fallout segment.

I hope the WM crowd shits completely over this

Cena versus Rusev seems like a lock. Cena regains the US Championship for the first time in 10 years.

where is RAW tomorrow

Wheres Mania this year? I legit don't remember. If its a smark city, you may be onto something.

The Rock couldn't even save it. THE ROCK.

Reigns lesnar blah

OUR LORD AND SAVIOR BROCK CHRIST WILL RISE ONCE AGAIN AND SUPLEX THIS BULLSHIT.

Nah man. That would be stupid. Let us see how the story develops.

i wonder how many people would complain that WWE is too predictable if Bryan had won

Levi Stadium S.F. Cali.

Poor reigns this dump on tops Batista last year

We must start the Church of Lesnar.

are U all stupid... don't you know that wrestling "thrives" off of pissing you off

Santa Clara, CA

It doesn't matter where Mania is as all the global smarks converge on the city.

<font color=goldenrod>Just like last year, I'm taking a few weeks off. Raw is too shit most of the time to sit through 3 hours especially when it's obvious the company didn't learn at all from last year.

I'll tune in to Fast Lane and see what's up. Maybe they can bring me to care about WrestleMania.</font>

Reigns winning makes up for the crap last year. Reigns v Lesnar will make a better match then Goat boy v Lesnar

Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo

Lol

.....what?

What is Vince thinking after that I wonder

Honestly and truly, I don't expect Rock coming out after a shitty Rumble like that, with a shitty paced middle and end to be saved by the Rock simply by holding up Reigns hand. It was beyond repair when DB was eliminated; crowd had already decided (along with me) that it was gonna shit on it no matter what.

The two worst talkers in WWE are headlining Mania. Paul Heyman has his work cut out for him. If they do a double turn soon could make it interesting.

HHH vs Sting is gonna suck too

HAS DEAN AMBROSE WON YET? IS HE THE NATIONAL CHAMPION?????

I would like to see rock and reigns reform the Islanders

you're right actually.

Rusev Lesnar would have been awesome

That and Big Show & Kane getting rid of almost everyone killed off a lot of excitement.

Rumble itself was pretty bad not because Reigns won but because of the pacing and everything feeling anti-climatic post-Bryan. Even Bray's elimination and Kane breaking the all-time eliminations record felt flat as big moments.

Would not be the same amount of people who are complaining now.

Even an audible with Ziggler would've saved it. Could've screwed him out of his shot down the line to save face.

wtf is going on in the postgame interview with ramon reigns and the rock

Have you not considered for one moment the possibility Bryan might still be injured and hence was pulled out of the match for his own safety?

Yes people are crying and whining but would you rather he was pulled out to save himself from injury and hence is around to main event for longer, or have him get injured and take even more time out or retire early?

And lo, it was.

Rock working hard to put over little cousin.

IS JAMES STEELE A IGNORANT ASS?

I FORGOT THE RUMBLE WAS TONIGHT

Should I torrent this shit?

Didn't Steele have the Church of McMahon several years ago? :lol:

We'll see about that.

Te rock really embarrassing himself

This backstage guy sucks

This is exactly how I feel.

It's so painfully obvious that they knew this was going to be received poorly, so they paid to fly in The Rock to try and give Reigns SOME kind of rub.

Instead, it makes Roman look like a hundredth of the star he is.

Trips and sting will be great. I trust Trips in carrying that match

Reigns cant even laugh

I predict Bryan won't even be at Wrestle Mania. He's going to take time off again to recover.

He came back way too soon.

Download Part1.avi, but save your bandwidth and skip out on Part2.avi

IS DEAN AMBROSE STILL IN THE RING??

lol

HHH/SCSA Podcast is giving me a boner. 2 weeks of blue balls to endure.

Your predictions have been 100% on the money thus far.

I just got a bunch of texts from friends basically the don't give a fuck about mania this year pretty depressing to know we will all be doing something else if Reigns V Lesnar is the main event

The Triple threat saved this from being one of the worst ppvs in a while

Holy shit, this WWE 24 show looks awesome. That's an instant watch.

I agree though that Rumble match wasn't great.

Better ending would have been to have had the heels (authority heels) gang up on a face towards the end and then Sting comes out to help. Or the Rock at that point.

Not sure how having Rock come out after Reigns had effectively won the match was thought logical.

They could have at least extended Reigns and Rusev a bit longer.

Well I predicted Bryan wouldn't win the Rumble. 1 out of 3 ain't bad.

Wanker.

Protestant, Presbyterian, Catholic, whatever.

Have you considered they could have just booked him to come out later. Bryan not winning would at least have been ok if he was in the final 4 / final 2. But he was eliminated before Stardust ffs.

Time to chant for Bryan again until 'Mania so he's injected in the main event.

amazing triple threat.

that's all

Church of Triple H

I did the whole "McMahonism" schtick back in 06 though. They will probably make it work and get me excited about it, but it will be harder than last year.

Maybe the intention was for him to win but during the match he got injured and decided he couldn't go on?

vintage Steele right here... :lol:

http://tpwwforums.com/showthread.php...ght=mcmahonism

Church of Triple H is still active and seeking members in the TPWW Social Groups page.

Did you not understand when I was Championing Ambrose and Ziggler they were the last bright lights in this thing it wasn't just DB being gone that upsets me its the fact that a super boring wrestler that I could care less about is headed into the Main Event with a man who was A goddamn terminator tonight

am I A whiny butthurt mark youre goddamn right I am.

He came off looking like rocks lil brother

I loved the McMahonism angle. It was hilarious. Shane moving away from Vince in the church, the culmination of the years put into the VkM character really.

Absolutely, also a HHH live podcast with Austin, & that 3-way.

Just to bring some positives to the thread.

...at least Cena didn't win.

Which of these would have been worse?

A) The present ending

B) John Cena entering at 30 and winning

If Lesnar is going to be painted as some monster terminator then you need a guy on that level physically to be able to compete and pass it off as legit.

No way could Bryan pull that off.

furthermore if he couldn't get through the RR match without getting injured then what do you think would have happened if he had been subjected to all those supplexes, running through the barriers etc?

There needs to be an element of realism.

I wonder when Seth Rollins will finally cash in. I wonder if they'll use that to shock the world, give a WM moment, and save this whole situation at Mania. Brock wins a war, and Rollins cashes in.

yep

Cena winning would have been worse. I was so pissed in 08 when they did that. Made worse by him just getting his title shot at the February PPV because CENA.
