Men's Rumble was great. Womens was...meh. Ronda was...awkward kinda. Rest of the card was too.

I was here for the Rumbles so I'd say solid show. Not that excited for WM season but I'll give it a shot.

Would rather her first loss be in a 1-on-1 match and not a rumble.

Actually, it's probably gonna happen in that Facebook tag tournament. Which would probably be more anti-climactic.

Oh I'm all in on Styles/Nakamura at Mania.

Decent chance that and Asuka's match are the only things I'm gonna pay any real attention to...but sadly enough that's already an improvement on last year's Mania where I went into it caring about one match.

I could see there being three women's matches at Mania.

Asuka vs. Alexa
Charlotte and Becky vs. Rousey and Baszler
Bayley vs. heel Banks

But we'll see.

Rousey v bliss -15 second squash via arm bar

Charlotte v asuka - asuka wins

Multi women match. Moolah battle royal. I dunno. Something that gets everyone on the card. Banks wins

Yeah, the non-big 4 PPVs swapped brands from a year ago, which makes sense.

But for whatever reason they're not doing it this year as HIAC will be a SD show again.

Oh. Well that's one downside to Reigns not winning the Rumble. Elimination Chamber winner is pretty much a given.

Enjoyed both Rumbles.

Only thing I really hated was how the women kept rolling out of the ring and chilling on the outside. I literally kept having to ask and wonder if people were still in the match or not. I don't know why they couldn't just book it like the men and just have them all laying around the mat in the ring. Part of a Rumble's charm is seeing the ring full of people.

Agreed with that. I mean everyone takes a breather during the Rumble via chilling in the corner or under the ropes or whatever.....I don't think they needed to make it so obvious by having them all out on the floor.

Rumbles were pretty good, Men's was pretty much what I expected, nice surprise with Rey & Hurricane and giving a couple NXT stars a chance to shine. Women's rumble was pretty good too, could have gone without all the stalling and resting at ringside though, it was hard to keep track of who was still around and not eliminated. Also would have had a bit bigger impact if most of the "surprises" had not appeared to Raw the previous Monday.....

Also wasn't a huge fan of women's rumble going on last, I get why they did it, but it seemed like it would have done better if it opened the show and benefited from a super hot crowd, no doubt in my mind the crowd would have been much hotter for the returns and Rousey's appearance afterwards.

The crowd I was with HATED the Men's Rumble. I am glad that Nakamura won, and the Heath Slater bit was awesome. You can tell they are trying to have Sheamus do as little as possible. I don't get the pancakes thing with the New Day.

The Women's Rumble had a lot of rolling out and what not, the Men's Rumble had a lot of guys laying in the ring and doing nothing, which pisses me off even more.

I was one of Rey's biggest detractors towards the end of his WWE run. Looked a lot slower than he used to. Generally looked like he didn't care, and was just going through the motions, putting in formulaic matches.

He looked fucking amazing here. I mean, just looking at him, you could tell he was in amazing shape, but his speed was faster than I remember seeing him since early into his original WWE run.

Really hope this isn't a one off and he's back for good, because as great as he looked, there are some amazing dream matches we could get with the current roster.

The reason he's faster and fitter is because he doesnt work full time. Putting him back on the road would just repeat that process

Dunno, if he can work out a deal where he gets a lighter schedule, I could see him keeping up. Pays it back by putting over new stars.

It could be a one off as he's currently tied up over here, as he's making appearance for 5 Star Wrestling from 1st February to 10th May.

Those dates all fall on Thursdays though, so he could get a plane back and forth between the US and UK if he really wanted to.

Nah. Her debut is on the homepage of the BBC website over here 8n the UK. If you want a bump to Raw viewership then they made the right choice.

Originally it was rumored WWE was looking at just 3-4 for Legends and the rest from NXT for this year but ended up going with almost a third of the Rumble being Legends. I get why they did it because of the historical nature of this Rumble.
I think the Absolution/Riott Squad call up probably hurt them this year as it ransacked the NXT Roster. Next year they’ll have had chance to repopulate NXT and should have more to draw from. That said, surprised by no Iconic Duo.

Maybe next year they can reduce this women's "rumble" match to 20 participants and actually keep them in the fucking ring as opposed to people vanishing for upto 10 minutes only to reappear after they had taken their breather. Constantly wondering if "x" person was eliminated because of that shit was the running theme.

Does the number of participants affect this? I figured they weren’t sure the women could work upwards of 30-40 minutes so structured the match as they did.

Numbers didn't no, but having to bring in a load of people who hadn't done anything in wwe in years to pad out the numbers was a dumb decision. Its ok doing fan service but there was a lot more than expected getting trotted out to this match. A 20 person battle royal would have been a better way to go imo, less part time brigade and more emphasis on the current roster.

Won $270 in our Rumble lottery for Nakamura winning. Didn't do one for the Women's Rumble since we weren't sure who all was going to be in it. Maybe next year.

Given that they were trying to put over the "HISTORIC" aspect of the women's Rumble, having all of those returnees in there made sense to me, even if it was slightly underwhelming considering how many of them made cameos on Raw 25.

For future years though, it's gonna be tough to fill 30 spots I think.

A lot more fun than a lot of recent Rumbles. Not sure why they decided to do the weird awkward silent ending. But hey.

From what I saw, I'd give the show an A. Esp for WWE standards.

In saying that, Steph was horrific on commentary.
