Reigns vs. HHH does not excite me as a WrestleMania main event. Like...at all. I went into this show knowing that was like 98% likely the main event, but was hoping maybe they'd audible out of it.
Back to not watching for me. I'll catch Styles/Owens/Ambrose/Zayn etc. matches later. |

I'm oddly okay with this as well. HHH makes the most sense for Wrestlemania.

Would have been amazing if Ambrose pulled it off but at least the Rumble itself was better overall than the past couple ones.
Probably going to be Ambrose vs Reigns at Fastlane to determine who faces Triple H at Mania. Reigns wins since he's the one in a feud with the Authority and maybe Ambrose gives him another respect hug/handshake like at Summerslam. |

I don't think reigns vs hhh will be as great as you do narc. I think it can work but it won't be a huge match. Will be overshadowed.

It is the only long term story they have. Brock/Wyatt could be very intriguing too.

Was actually a hot finish though. Clever booking in that they had to have known Orlando would be anti Roman as a smarky crowd, so have HHH throw out Ambrose would give him the desired heel reaction, and not people worshipping him for finishing Reigns at the end. Because he got a HUGE fucking pop for throwing out Reigns, if that closed the rumble it would just look really bad.

I am more than ok with this. Not like it was a surprise anyway, but Ambrose getting a big push from this would be good too.

Thought that was a pretty sweet Rumble, actually. Aside from why the League of Nations wouldn't just roll Reigns back in to be eliminated.

What people perceive as charisma these days is different. Triple H and Roman Reigns don't have that flavor. The crowd got majorly bummed when it was teased, and they weren't even a particularly smarkish crowd -- they wanted everything to be over.
Triple H and Reigns couldn't even get people into their shit in Reigns' homestate and where Triple H is recognised as the Father of NXT. This is not going to work. There was something eerily creepy about the way Michael Cole was announcing Triple H the winner too. Like he's some young cat. He also pretty cleanly eliminated Reigns and only really abused his power to the point where he was #30. He sort of earned the right to call himself champion. A bit weird. |

Seriously, you people need to relax. Does anyone believe Ambrose would be a better draw than HHH? Hell no. This Rumble was played almost perfectly. Super fun and exciting.

Didn't mind the finish, really like how Dean and HHH took in the moment which is what is always cool with the rumble and that was a sweet WHATAMANEUVER combo HHH used to win. BUT It woulda been a lot cooler if Ambrose won just out of "WOOOOOO MOTHAFUCKA" value. |

I am firmly not an every-week watcher, and pretty much only am excited about Rumble and WM at this point in my life someone like Ambrose in the WM main event entices me to actually watch HHH in 2016 as champion is probably the least-entertaining thing I can even think of right now |

HHH is not that much of a marquee name. Like people don't really give THAT much of a fuck about him. He could probably draw a bit more but not a huge amount. The Wrestlemania brand would be what draws. Ambrose while maybe not being super mainstream has the potential to be part of the future of your company and you have to take chances on guys, even if they aren't the chosen one. In saying that, nothing wrong with the finish tonight. Good royal rumble, I enjoyed it. |

Nah. They already have the easy booking.
Reigns wants his rematch and will be forced by the authority to beat the League of Nations in some matches to maintain his number one contender status and then will face hhh at wm32 Lesnar vs Wyatt is coming together. Ambrose will be in a match with Ambrose, styles, Sami or some mixture of that. Cena might make a come back or Orton and have matches as well. And probably taker in a retirement match. Not a great wrestlemania for the biggest crowd ever |

The booking of the Rumble was actually pretty good until it got to the point where people are meant to like Roman.

Pretty predictable rumble match. Lost the Network after Goldusts entrance and didnt get it back til Ambrose entered. AJ gave me chills, who eliminated him?

So Wrestlemania:
Triple H vs. Roman Reigns Bray Wyatt (and friends) vs. Brock Lesnar Dean Ambrose vs. Chris Jericho (he eliminated Jericho, and they felt the need to remind us of their beef) Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn This is actually not sounding too bad right now. |
