Reigns walking to the back..... isn't what a face would do when defending his title. At all. This is dumb.
More than Triple H winning, this is what pissed me off. Reigns is always sold as this underdog and it ****ing sucks. All the wrestlers have had to work hard and make their way up, not just Roman. It undersells the guy.

Just finished watching the rumble.

- Tyler Breeze stole the show for the few minutes he was in there.
- No championship match meant a shorter rumble and more watchable one. Cue, Raw.
- The big men dominating sucked. Would like to see a 4 on 4 big men watch so that they don't crown every thing but this is the WWE, after all.
- Samy Zayn v Kewin Owens in the rumble was super fun to watch.
- For a few moments, I thought Jericho might win it. Would be terrific.
- The tag team match was excellent to watch. The promo before it was hilarious.
- I suspect we will have another Triple threat match at WM now. Triple H isn't in the age to work long matches with just him and an opponent, as evident from him entering 29. He might have a run till Mania and then get away again. I hope it's better than Sting v Triple H from last year.
- Titus O'Neil is too green to be out there in the brutal world of main wwe. Will just end up burying him.
- Glad to have AJ. Better wrestlers means chance to have more cool matches.
- That Rusev fly in the sky was ****ing amazing. Too less Lana in the show for my liking.
- Kalisto v Alberto looked like a mismatch to me. I used to like Alberto but not enjoying his hit it, hit it, hit it and less moves avatar. Doesn't work well with a high flyer like Kalisto either. Also, they need to stop that lucha lucha lucha promo. We know it's a lucha wrestler when he wears a mask like that ffs.
- The pink bands the New Day wore on their hair. Not many can carry that off, so cool.
Yeah it was cool they let Breeze get in his "work" before his early elimination. The beauty shot to AJ was his best on the main roster by a mile.

Really enjoyed it.

HHH as champion just feels right anyway :laugh:

Saw someone ask why he'd (kayfabe) want to be the champ

His handpicked champ is on ice
Once Reigns had gone there was just him and Ambrose, another guy who epitomises what the authority don't want as champion.
He's the ****ing game, as one of the announcers said when he steps in the ring he's not the COO, he's the game

I mean there were obvious flaws throughout the rumble sure. But it was enjoyable, the Brock-Wyatts bit was great, enjoyed AJ (dunno wtf Sledger is on about), Kofi on Big E's shoulders was cool.

Not sure am overly excited for HHH-Reigns at Mania but if you're gonna get him over that's the way to do it.

Count me in now for the road to Mania.

Idle thoughts while reading Raw commentary, would it be the ATG swerve to have DBry come out as the "big star" and get a #1 contender match at Fastlane so they can complete a final chapter on DBry vs. HHH at WM

AJ vs Y2J on Raw.

Can't give that away for free, surely? Shenanigans expected?
Maybe they're trying to get AJ over asap and figure this is the best way to make him a star? Be interested to see how long it goes and when it starts. I'm guessing The Rock (Sorry, the "returning WWE superstar") will close the show?

I think someone just stuffed up tbh.

their youtube account has posted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuBVcsPVPyQ and i'm guessing whenever they do countdowns where AJ's debut is featured, they'll use that footage
Reports are that a lot of the production was done via remote since some of the crew were trapped in New York due to the blizzards.

Would explain the pretty rubbish video production we got. WWE isn't typically quite that shambolic. Missed about 3-4 eliminations too.

This was pretty bad too:
