Overall, it was an amazing first half of the Rumble. The surprise returns from Booker and Nash were great, and I can't help but be amused by the fact that the biggest pops of the night were for two guys that haven't been main eventers in years, and the big Cena/Orton staredown was met with dead silence.
I'm a little miffed that Punk got taken out halfway through the match, as I was really hoping that they'd have the leaders of the Nexus and the Corre go at it. But alas, Cena needed to clear the ring for that agonizing comedy bit with Hornswoggle.
And honestly, I know everyone on TPDub has a big hard-on for Del Rio, but I don't get it. He's pretty good on the mic, but he's no Jericho or Christian. He's pretty good in the ring, but he's no Bryan or Punk. In a company with guys who are genuinely great at one thing or another, there's so much hype and excitement for a guy who's just pretty good.
