One of the good events if not great today in the Rumble, do we get the rumored for a long time, of Reigns vs Lesnar.

Does Rollins cash in and get the title.

A thing that has picked up some steam recently, a Brock Face turn.

See if it happens tonight, if Reigns wins, how will the Philly crowd treat that.

My favorite event next to Wrestlemania and one that having a watch party is worth it. Rumors are that The Rock, Dudleys, DDP, Randy Orton, Sami Zayn, and Bo Dallas could be participating in the Rumble. Sting might show up to thwart Triple H again. Really looking forward to the NXT event on February 11.

Since the title match is before the Rumbel, I would expect one if not both the losers of that match to be in the mix of the 30 guys. Seen 17 of the names confirmed. Philly will be great for the Bork face turn.

Only seeing Divas match and two tag team matches before title match and Rumbel. I guess the US and I-C belts just arent relevant anymore. :(

I always enjoy the Rumble.

Hoping to see another Sting appearance.

Would be fun to see DDP and the Dudleys.

I read the stuff about a possible face turn for Brock. Not sure what that would accomplish or how that would play in the storyline???

That triple threat title match was fucking awesome. Awesome Phoenix Splash by Rollins and Lesnar is a legitimate damn beast. Going to be hard for the Rumble match to top it.

+1, that triple threat was really really really good.


Rumble sort of sucked. Kane/Show eliminating everyone, and then ultimately turning on each other was real lame. Played out, and lame. Thought the fans would like Roman a little more than they did, but I guess not. Killed the crowd.

At the beginning, the Rumble was good...then Daniel Bryan was eliminated, killing the crowd for a while. The quick eliminations of Ziggler and Mizdow did not help. Reigns just is not ready to main event Wrestlemania, next year would have been better.

Having Bryan eliminated so early was really dumb.

Just assumed Bray or DB would win. I think that's what most people thought... so to put them down to the final 3 with Roman would have at least gotten a better reaction at the end when Roman beat those two. Instead, we had the exact same thing we get every year with Show and Kane clearing house.

Wrestling Fans Lash Out With ‘#CancelWWENetwork’
David Stout @david_m_stout 4:02 AM ET

The response to Sunday’s Royal Rumble was anything but scripted

Wrestling fans were seething after the World Wrestling Entertainment’s annual Royal Rumble event came to what appears to be an unsatisfactory end in Philadelphia on Sunday night.

After Roman Reigns emerged victorious for the evening’s highly anticipated battle royal finale, fans sounded off in mass on social media outlets with the hashtag: “#CancelWWENetwork” that was trending worldwide by the night’s end.

According to wrestling blogs, spectators at the event were chanting for refunds as rumors swirled that the WWE Network cancellation page had crashed as fans bombarded the site.

Tough spot. I mean, you can't just always do what the fans want. And it's not like this can't be changed... who knows, the original plan may be to have him lose his match or something. Just seems like a big overreaction.

You shouldn't have a shit ending in Philly though, they're almost as smarky as Chicago. WWE should have known that and figured out a way to have him win and send the crowd home happy if they didn't want the crowd pissed, which influences the people at home. Easier said than done, but that's their problem.

A lot of these fans just need to fuck off, simple as that. This era has ushered in the worst wrestling fans ever. I don't get it. Why do people give a shit so much about who wins? It's not real! It use to never be like this.

It's about the spectacle of it all and entertainment. It was a good ppv.

Why did most people think this tho?

It has been rumored for a long time that Roman was going to win the Rumble and face Brock at Mania.

I have to say that Rollins has done way better than I expected. I really thought he was the weakest link of the Shield, and yet he has really blossomed into a pretty good worker and talker.

Fastlane tonight, then next event Mania.

Does Daniel Byran win for a triple threat, I hope not, I liked the idea of Ziggler costing him and them getting a match, talk of Sheamus-Bryan, maybe Sheamus interferes.

Now talk of Lesnar staying after Mania, does that change anything.

Is this the first of a couple Cena-Rusev matches.

Does Ambrose start a title reign tonight or save it to Mania with a rematch.

We get a Triple H-Sting Faceoff

With this being a free month for the network, do they pull out all the stops to get more people to sign up for the Network.

Not bad event tonight; Paige and Nikki looked fine as usual, Cena and Reigns each were involved in entertaining matches.

This looks like the Wrestlemania 31 card:

Sting vs. Triple H (Confirmed)

Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar - WWE World Title (confirmed)

Bray Wyatt vs. Undertaker

The Miz vs. Damian Mizdow

Dean Ambrose vs. Bad News Barrett - Intercontinental Title

The Usos vs. Brass Ring Club (Kidd & Cesaro) - Tag Team Titles

Paige vs. Nikki Bella - Divas Title

Stardust vs. Goldust

Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton

Dolph Ziggler vs Daniel Bryan

Ryback & Rowan vs. Kane & Big Show

I know this may sound stupid and like I am picking nits. Does the author know that WWE does RAW live. I'm not sure what he means by RAW taping

I think he misspoke. The story could have truth behind it because apparently they were advertising Lesnar to be on Raw.

This was interesting to see...
