I guess a unique set really does go a long way. This show certainly stood out.

I really hope Harper gets added to Bryan's squad as soon as Tuesday.

Much as I’d love a legit Luke Harper run, history shows that WWE don’t know what to do with him so I’d rather he carry on with Rowan as they have genuine chemistry. Then call up the War Raiders to face them later in the year. |

How do you legitimately push Mustafa Ali after Nia Jax picked him up and tossed him over the ropes like a rag doll? I feel like they just completely buried Ali.

Stopped commenting because a friend came over to watch.....
I'd say overall the women stole this show for me. The two women's title matches were better than the men's, and I enjoyed the women's rumble more than the men's as well. |

I'dve liked it better if Taker appeared out of nowhere and Tombstoned Nia Jax just for shits and giggles, cause I think a fat bitch jiggling after taking a move like that wrong, and breaking her clumsy, awkward neck would be a hoot.

Angle’s entry was random as all fuck
He’s essentially done as an in-ring competitor and was effectively written off as GM once the McMahons took over the shows. He doesn’t need to be doing a random 5 minute spot early in the Rumble when he’s 50 years old and can’t even turn his head. |

Pretty good show overall, but after Takeover and this, I'm burnt out on wrestling.

Watched the show with some casual Attitude Era fans. It took some of the luster out of the show. Marked out for Becky Lynch.

Honestly, out of all the shows I have attended, including two WrestleManias, I had the most fun/best time at the Royal Rumble tonight.

I feel like I have one more 'in attendance' WWE event of significance in me, then if AEW takes off I might switch over to that

The people in charge who have hot shotted her up the card before she's ready deserve more hate then Nia herself.

I just read the royal rumble results on wwe.com and they say Jeff Jarrett was in the rumble.
Did he say slapnuts? |

If Jeff Jarrett called someone Slapnuts in 2019 then I will subscribe to the WWE network in 2019. This is what it takes to draw in fans everybody.

Nah. Right through hi HOF induction last year they seem hellbent on making everyone forget that Slapnuts era Jarrett existed.

The Men's Royal Rumble was pretty decent.
The Women's was trash until Becky entered, but the finishing series was hokey, especially with Becky selling the wrong leg that she was originally selling lol |

And the commentary. Jesus. It's down to Rollins and Braun, and JBL/Cole/Graves etc are falling over themselves talking about Seth standing no chance. I wonder what's gonna happen.
Graves needs a kick in the balls. I don't know how people watch the current product anymore. It's just bad. Commentary really effects my enjoyment of wrestling. Just awful. |

i like the pairing of Rowan with Bryan. interested to see where this goes. Bryan technically was in the Wyatt family so it makes a little sense given the past. weird that they dropped the whole Bludgeon Brothers gimmick so quick. Or maybe that's just Rowan in "street clothes" and they'll continue the team
Becky Lynch is so awesome. best thing about wrestling right now. |

While I think comedy spots very much have a place in any Rumble, I do have a minor gripe that the instant elimination spots are played out. Three entrants in the men's Rumble were in there for less than five seconds. I don't understand the insistence on trying to re-hash that spot every year given that Santino's record of one second literally can't be broken.
