I kinda feel bad for Roman... flopping so hard in front of his legendary cousin and all. whats crazy is if he would have one last year everyone would have ate it up... he just got shoved down our throats to much
The crowd went dead when Bryan got eliminated. I thought the Rock will enter and win it and then get to see one of the most anticipated rematches in WWE history: Rock vs. Brock Good to see Bubba Ray Dudley back. I thought D-Von will make an appearance and bring some tables with them. Early match card predictions for Wrestlemania 31 unless they make changes like last year: Reigns vs. Lesnar and Cena/Rock/Sting vs. Authority (HHH/Kane/Big Show). Also, Seth Rollins will cash in his MITB contract against the Reigns/Lesnar winner.
I think Bryan gets added to the title match since he technically never lost the title. Sting/HHH and Cena/Rusev
The crowd booed the holy hell out of every participant after Bryan, actually. When The Rock (read: The FREAKIN' ROCK) can't get you cheers, you know you done goofed. Bryan getting eliminated wasn't even the worst thing about the Rumble - it was the way the fan faves (Ziggles, Ambrose, Bryan) were eliminated. There wasn't some big moment. There wasn't some gigantic swerve. It was Wyatt randomly eliminating Bryan. It was Ziggler getting KO punched. And I don't even remember how Ambrose was eliminated, so it definitely wasn't noteworthy to me. It's 2015, and you have Big Show and Kane as 2 out of the final 3? Authority storyline be damned, no one wanted to see Reigns win, nor the final 3.
Not sure about including Bryan, no need to put the strap on him if it'll mean you stymie the Roman push the WWE is forcing upon us. Rocky Maivia 2.0... Sting/HHH and Cena/Rusev seem like no brainers at this point.
Then the main event is just going to get crapped on. Roman isn't ready and is going to get booed by the crowd like Batista last year.
The only redeeming quality of the show was the triple threat. I'm absolutely pissed that I gave WWE money for that rumble. Bryan, Ziggler, AND Ambrose all eliminated like scrubs? Final four consisting of Big Slow, Corporate Kane, Reigns, and Rusev (no real shot at winning), could it be any more predictable? C'mon.
