purkey posted:The rumble was silly and had a bad end, but was in no way a wmotyc you goofs. A lot of it was exactly what people don't like about rumbles - people standing in corners acting like they're struggling to push the other over. It wasn't truly terrible, but it was poorly booked and lead to a poor ending that the crowd didn't want. Last year the crowd was super into Roman as a surprise alternative to Batista at Wrestlemania - this year the crowd wanted alternatives to cheer for, and those were quashed in the most anti climatic way possible. Nth Lesnar vs some chumps for MOTY

I'm going to nth the nomination of the Rumble match as Worst of the Year. Technically speaking it was perfectly fine and even quite good in how the whole thing was constructed/flowed. But the booking ideas behind it, the key decisions, and the spiteful elements of "gently caress the fans you'll like what we tell you to like" utterly ruined it and made it one of the worst Rumble matches I've ever seen.

My favourite spot of the Rumble was where the big hoss came out and their high spot was a bunch of forearms and stomps for like 12 consecutive entrants.

I found myself consistently bored besides the surprise entrants. Even before Bryan got thrown out it just felt like a match and not like a Royal Rumble.

oatgan posted:i liked when the crowd started chanting "WE WANT DEVON" and then seconds later bubba ray was eliminated That really set the tone, every time the crowd wanted something, WWE took away or ruined what they wanted. It was great from the perspective of "how to alienate fans and ruin your product." Worst Match of the Year.

I generally love even the "bad" Rumbles but that managed to gently caress up the one thing that is usually idiot proof. Nomination' s deserved

Testekill posted:MOTYC: Lesnar vs Cena vs Rollins Testekill posted:WMOTYC: Royal Rumble 2015 Yup. Talk about loving highs and lows. Gotta say, I do want to talk a bit more about the good with that title match. I marked for a goddamn injury spot after that table hit, and seeing Brock just loving pop back into the ring was one of the best moments since I started watching. I also felt that they finally struck a good "strong but chickenshit" balance with Rollins, having him get hosed up by multiple finishers before bringing J&J into the mix. Just really solid stuff, wish it had gone on longer.

Yeah, they don't let a lot of guys kick out of the AA, and Rollins did. That says something about their faith in the guy.

The rumble match was so bad, WWE should immediately fire the agent(s) that planned it and anyone associated with writing storylines that it meant to move forward. This includes, of course, Vince or Steph, or HHH.

Yeah, it's a shame that the Rumble will overshadow the title match, because that was loving amazing. Before the match I kept going back-and-forth in my head over who should win and whether Rollins should cash in or not. About halfway through I stopped caring about all that because my jaw kept dropping every 20 seconds. It was Cena's best match in years, arguably Lesnar's best match since his return and Rollins made himself a made man despite eating the pin. Everybody came out looking like a million bucks.

I'd like to nth all the WMOTY votes for the Rumble, it had what might be the worst finishing sequence in Rumble history, which cast a pall over what had been a fun Rumble so far.

Seriously, how the gently caress can WWE go fromCardboard Box posted:MOTYC: Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena vs. Seth Rollins - WWE Royal Rumble, 1/25 to Testekill posted:WMOTYC: Royal Rumble 2015 within such a short time span. Nthing both those nominations obviously, not that it makes a difference.
