NFT: WWE: Royal Rumble

LawrenceTaylor56 : 1/25/2015 5:07 pm
One of the best PPVs IMO. In Philly, wouldn't be surprised if we see some ECW legends as surprise entrants.

the best. Even last years predictable winner didnt ruin it.

I believe Reigns is the favorite this year, but it would really be awesome if someone out of the wood works wins it.

And please let Brock kill all tonight.

Agree on Brock. I'm not a huge fan of Reigns though.

Something stupid will happen in the main even to let Brock win so he can face Reigns at WM. But also will set up Cena-Rollins WM as well. Just my guess.

Brock-Reigns
Cena-Rollins
Sting-HHH

I am hoping Barrett-Ziggler start a fued.
Im going tonight

My fantasy booking for Rumble and Mania  
Mr. Nickels : 1/25/2015 5:30 pm : link
Lesnar retains the title.. some interference from the Authority but Daniel Bryan and Sting stop them.

Bryan begins a feud with Cena due to their interference and Lesnar capitalizing by F5ing and pinning Cena.

Sting begins feud with Triple H.

Ambrose and Reigns prevent Rollins from cashing in Money in the bank.. reigniting the Shield feud

The Rock surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble and wins it last eliminating Reigns (another close but no cigar loss by Reigns will get the fans back on his side instead of resenting him being pushed as the golden boy).

Wrestle Mania 31

Brock Lesnar vs The Rock for WWE Championship
John Cena vs Daniel Bryan
Triple H vs Sting
Triple Threat Ladder Match for Money in the Bank Briefcase
Seth Rollins vs Dean Ambrose vs Roman Reigns
The Undertaker vs Bray Wyatt

Ziggler  
Mr. Nickels : 1/25/2015 5:34 pm : link

brock will lose his match  
KWhite2250 : 1/25/2015 5:39 pm : link

rock should come out and help eliminate rusev to set that matchup.

Haven't been into it in probably 10-12 years but one of my buddies from HS is supposedly going to be an extra tonight. I'll stay tuned to this thread to see what happens. I used to love the RR. Such a fan event.
I love the unpredictability  
Mr. Nickels : 1/25/2015 5:58 pm : link
this is what the Rumble should be like every year they need to make sure it happens. Although initially we were lead to be believe it was going to end up Lesnar vs Reigns I think circumstances have changed, although it could very well still end up being that. They stuck to the script last year and were booed.
Heyman should be switiching over to Rollins

Dave in Hoboken : 1/25/2015 7:30 pm : link
Probably won't happen, though. They better not have him lose the briefcase. That would be awful. Brock and Cena are two geeks that need to .

This Brock title "reign" has been a joke. Don't get me wrong, I'll take it over another meaningless Cena title reign, but damn. Time to give the title to the young workhorse (Rollins).
How is Brock a geek?  
Mr. Nickels : 1/25/2015 7:44 pm : link
The champ in years past defended about as often as Lesnar on PPVs (granted they also did house shows which is important) But for the average joe you likely only saw a couple title defenses anyway. We have been spoiled ever since the Attitude Era with title changes.

The fact that John Cena (who you correctly label a geek, geek that he is) has 16 championships is mind boggingly ridiculous

I want to see Brock go all the way and successfully defend the title at Mania.

Brock wont hold it past the WM. So to see him win tonight just so Censa doesnt, is fine with me.

BigBlueDownTheShore : 1/25/2015 7:51 pm : link
A bat. I like how they are using him so far, but man he needs that bat to make it feel just right.

I still think Reigns is going to win, but they have to make it interesting and I don't think he's ready due to his injury break. He sucks as a wrestler. He has no moves and the dam super punch is the worst finisher of all time.

But after ending the Taker's streak at WM and rag-dolling Cena at SS... this behemoth is going to lose to Seth friggin' Rollins? I like what I've seen from Rollins but Lesnar losing to him would just feel odd based on the way Lesnar has been treated the past year. A huge part of wrestling is believability and I just don't believe Rollins could win against Brock.

It's a triple threat with Cena and there is the Authority. Lesnar could get double crossed by Heyman and Rollins can get a cheap win (like he tried to do at Night of Champions)

I rather see Lesnar as champ than guys like Cena, Orton, and has beens. At least Lesnars strength and athleticism gives you some awesome moments. And of course he is perfect with Heyman.

I think the Bryan injury kind of screwd up everything. With him out so long, there wasnt a guy who should have carried the belt. The Shield was still together, Bray fizzled. Cena and Orton were incredibly boring.

I think he had to hold this belt so they could build up rollins and now Reigns.

Lesner does need to actual wrestle in these matches. I agree the German suplexes are shades of when Scott Steiner came back to the WWE and that's all he could do.

Pego61 : 1/25/2015 10:49 pm : link
This isn't his fault. I also think the crowd is completely right to act like this. Every week, the crowd shows who their favorites are. And they were all treated like jobber garbage tonight.

Sure the casuals cheer Reigns. But remember, everyone cheered Cena when he was actually cool. The "smarks" crap on Reigns and he's just getting started. How can WWE think this was the right move.

Vince books this like it's 1985. It's not 1985 anymore. Until Vince goes, the booking will remain idiotic.

He didn't even want Bryan to main event last year. He must have been the only person.
Hey, the Rock did his job.  
Anakim : 1/25/2015 10:50 pm : link
He got his huge pop, he kicked some ass, he did his move and the crowd loved it. Just a shame that he couldn't save his non-charismatic cousin. Rock is great, but as he saw when he teamed with Cena, the crowd isn't going to like a guy just because he's associated with him.

But, at the time, smarks thought his thug gimmick was cool. And when he first turned face, everyone loved him. It changed over time, with the shoving down the throats. Reigns kind of skipped the everyone loves part.
Reigns was the most over member of The Shield.  
Devon : 1/25/2015 10:58 pm : link
People play revisionist there, but he was and it wasn't all that close either.

WWE, of course, took exactly what got him over (being the mostly silent badass guys thought was cool and women lusted after) and destroyed it, turning him into some Cena Lite tool.
.  
Anakim : 1/25/2015 10:58 pm : link
I know what the Rock is going to tell his cousin. He's gonna tell Reigns the same thing he told Cena: "Don't sweat it. They booed me too when I first started out. I was booed out of the building early on. "Rocky sucks." They'll come around. Keep doing your thing, etc. etc.."

Problem is, it was evident when the Rock was in the Nation and the Corporation that he had it all to be the next big thing. Reigns doesn't and I'm not sure he can develop it. It's really a matter of having "it" or not. Rock did; Reigns doesn't.

They did a great job leading into the Rumble by clouding the predictability factor but once the actual Rumble match was under way and Bryan was eliminated it was sooooo predictable. They could have and should have done better.

Was there boos for Hogan?  
JohnF : 1/26/2015 1:40 am : link
Actually, there were boos for Hogan at one of the early Rumbles. Back in 1992's Royal Rumble at the Knickerbocker Arena (now the Times Union Center in Albany), Hogan faced Sid Justice. Vince was still pushing Hogan as a face, and was starting to turn Sid to a bad guy (Sid Vicious).

The joke was on Vince, though, as everyone was sick and tired of Hogan's stale act at that point (at least all of us at the arena, I was there!). We were booing like crazy at Hogan, and confused the hell out of both guys (here's the Wikipedia link. The WWF had to edit the show, it was that bad. We were treating Hogan like Cena was down in Philly!

Flair was just amazing that night (he won it from #3). Best Rumble I ever saw, live or televised!
Not just booing

I am not a Reins hater...I think he has his place in the WWE, but he is horrible on the mic and needs help. He needs a Paul Heyman. He also need to work on his wrestling. His "moves" are garbage...spear and super-man punch.

Rollins was always the best wrestler in The Shield. I hate that they turned him into a whining bitch since winning MitB. That being said he was awesome last night.

Bray Wyatt was really gaining momentum and they killed it with the Cena nonsense.

When the Rock can't carry you when he is doing your speaking that's a bad sign. Watch that promo I referenced it was absolutely brutal. Rock was on a roll and then Reigns just sucked the life out of it everytime he started to speak. Hopefully Reigns will have more moves to use in Mania.
Didn't watch it  
illmatic : 1/26/2015 9:21 am : link
but I heard about what happened. The WWE just does not give a shit what the fans want to see. They showed that last year at the rumble and this year as well. When everybody expects Reigns to win it months in advance and then it happens... it's just boring as hell. And then on top of that, there was no good talent in the rumble. Nobody to even make you think "hey, maybe this guy will actually win it." I think the only other wrestler in it who even might've had a chance to make you think that was Bryan. And from what I read, he was eliminated fairly early on. And then the final three sounds like a joke, even further adding to the fact that it's painfully obvious who wins.

But I do feel somewhat bad for Reigns getting booed. I can see why they want to push him but it's dumb to do it right now. You have awesome guys like Rollins and Ambrose who are in a similar tier to Reigns - why not push them instead? Because they don't have the almighty "look"? It's just dumb. But I think most people booing him were basically booing WWE in general and their decision to do this.

Ziggler to me is nothing more than a spot monkey...yeah he hits some big moves and he takes big bumps but he never tells the story, he has the moves down but he is not good at ring psychology...

When wrestling was at its best the 2 guys in the ring knew how to tell a story and get the crowd invested...

Having matches with big spots are nice as a change of pace but in my opinion shouldnt be main event type matches..

To me i hate the matches where each guy keeps kicking out of the others finisher..its stupid to me and in the grand scheme it is killing the validity of the guys strongest move...

In the 90's early 2000's you would rarely see someone kick out of another person's finisher and when it did happen it made it more shocking and better, now you see it in every single match...

The guys i actually like watching wrestle Ambrose, Rollins, Orton, HHH, Wyatt, and that is really it..

Those guys when they get into a ring no how to tell a story and get you invested into a match...

bad Bubba Ray was a one and done for WWE ,He is booked with Devon for a House of Hardcore show in March .I always said he is one of greatest heels in the business .



I'm honestly done watching and have for about a year now but that's disappointing. I really think his progression from ring boy to what he became in TNA was nothing short of amazing. Imagine Rowan one day becoming a capable main event worker/putting on plus matches, that would be something similar.


i agree with you... bubba was great but the rest of wasnt that great. Though i blame that on just the booking.

To me Scott Hall was one of the best workers in wrestling in his prime..the guy simply knew how to tell a story and sell the shit out of a match...
well we agree  
KWhite2250 : 1/26/2015 10:49 am : link
on the wrestlers other than ziggler and bryan.

i hate that time gets wasted on useless guys like big show or bella twins. i'd rather just see the real good wrestlers get more time to let matches play out better.

I know i am in the minority when it comes to Ziggler and Bryan...
I think one of the problems  
dep026 : 1/26/2015 11:24 am : link
is that the characters they are making become stale too soon.

Bray is awesome, but this whole crazy shit wears thin.
Ambrose is probably the best wrestler, but his "heath ledger, joker" act also becomes boring.
Reigns machoism and not being able to talk is just awful.

Ziggler is awesome, but can he carry the title for a long time? Barrett always look good for 2 weeks than becomes a complete bore. They have no clue what to do with Cesaro. Bryan is clearly still injured.

I would love to see Rollins, Ambrose, Cesaro, and Sandow get huge pushes. You can easily have 2 faces and 2 heels and high quality wrestling. Even throw Bray in there as well.

Heyman needs a guy. I thought it would be Rollins, but its a perfect time to send Reigns as a heel and let Heyman do for him what he does for Brock.

And one final note, my god is Lesnar a monster.
I actually agree that Ziggler is overrated  
moespree : 1/26/2015 11:47 am : link
He's a great seller, maybe the best they have. But he's not great on the mic, his moveset is not the greatest, and I do think because of his amazing selling ability many of his matches give off the appearance of being better than they actually are. It do think an upper card is his peak, never a main eventer.

As for Bryan, I also kind of get what the other poster is saying. We can't having booing, and non stop chanting everytime Bryan isn't in the main event. That being said the Rumble was booked poorly. It's obvious the people who booked it thought dump Bryan early and by the end people will get over it. Which is insulting to the audience to be honest, that they thought they'd be stupid enough to forget in like 35 minutes.
The problem with Reigns  
nygiants16 : 1/26/2015 11:53 am : link
is they are booking him like Cena...Shoved down your throat and is starting to cater to the young kids...

They should build him like Lesnar and build him as an ass kicker, he comes into the ring and clears it...Doesnt need to talk just destroys people...

Not what i am saying at all..Rollins is great in his role there is no need to change him to a face...I think turning Rollins face would kill him...as it is right now he is on his way to main event status...

Reigns doesnt necessarily need to be a heel but they need to stop booking him like Cena...
Just one mans thought  
The 12th Man : 1/26/2015 12:03 pm : link
Daniel Bryan comes back enters the Rumble to fire things up. He knows and WWE he is probably not ready for full time action. They put him in the Rumble to fire everybody up. Now he goes about the business of getting himself into a triple threat match for the Championship at Mania.
My thoughts are they brought him in to see how he wod hold up in his 1st match back. Think they want to make sure he can handle the load before giving him the title.
Hey wait

DanMetroMan : 1/26/2015 2:41 pm : link
moved to Thursday
The problem with Reigns  
BigBlueCane : 1/26/2015 3:16 pm : link
is that his stable mates are simply better then he is.

At practically everything. The only advantage he has is he's perceived as being 'better looking'.

And that's all that Vince really wants, a big handsome, jacked up guy as the face of the company.

Unfortunately for Vince, his booking is still in the 80's where you can have two big scary guys in Big Show/Kane killing everyone but the crowd and fans have moved far past him now.
There was a point last night  
Wuphat : 1/26/2015 3:23 pm : link
where Rusov was just about the smallest person in the ring except for Cesaro.

It's the same "bigger is better" bullshit that almost ruined the WWF in the early 90s. The only difference now is that there is no WCW to challenge them and force them to change.
Reigns  
Mr. Nickels : 1/26/2015 3:30 pm : link
moveset is fucking stupid too. How many others have used the spear? The Superman punch is dumb. Surprised they dont give him his own People's elbow/five knuckle shuffle move.

He needs to have a devastating finisher like a powerbomb or suplex. Stop coming from the crowd
Kaitlyn  
BigBlueCane : 1/26/2015 3:34 pm : link
had a better spear then Reigns does. And it looked more impressive given her size and those of the other divas.

People are deserting in droves, Raw has been cancelled for tonight and Smackdown will be live on Thursday.

I think these next two weeks are gonna be hilarious.
Are they going to backtrack  
Mr. Nickels : 1/26/2015 4:16 pm : link
like last year? Insert Bryan in the triple threat AGAIN?

They might as well but it's the same old shit.

I'd have the main event just be mayhem:

Lesnar vs Reigns vs Bryan (never lost the title)

Rollins faces Orton in the opener and steals the show and basically he pulls a Daniel Bryan

He comes out to cash in Money in the bank and its the 4 of them until Ambrose comes out to try and stop him and you either end Mania with Rollins as champ or Reigns still getting the win.
Meltzer says no  
moespree : 1/26/2015 4:20 pm : link
He reported today no triple threat. Vince is adamant not to do the same thing as last year. Main event will Lesnar vs Reigns.
Also for what it's worth  
moespree : 1/26/2015 4:21 pm : link
The schedule opens up a bit into more friendly territory for WWE and casuals who like Reigns in the weeks to come. It's not a Batista situation like last year, where casuals didn't even know who he was. Casuals know Reigns and do like him. This cancellation might just wind up a blessing in disguise for Vince and let it all die down. I think there is a good shot of that actually.
They still

Last year wasn't a backtrack. That was the plan from the beginning. Not letting Bryant do the Rumble last year and have him bitch in Twitter was all planned. Having him compete in 2 matches to win was planned and it was the best Mania in years.

There is no real way to fix this this year. If Rollins comes in and steels the belt from Reigns it will put Rollins over. Won't work unless Reigns goes full heel and how does the title match turn into a heel vs. a heel I don't know!

The plan last year was for Bryan to face Sheamus.

So stupid. Bryan NEVER LOST THE TITLE. He has a rematch clause and should exercise it.

Bryan needs a big Mania match for as long as he is the top face and Sheamus is a bum.

I have drifted in and out of watching over the years and I can honestly say at this point I have no desire to watch the main WWE product. It is boring, predictable, and total bullshit. What is crazy is that they have some insanely talented guys on that roster but the creative team churns out tired garbage week in and week out.

I do watch NXT from time to time and I also enjoy Lucha Underground, Chikara, PWG and New Japan Pro Wrestling. If you need a wrestling fix check one of those promotions out.
