On Twitter it was brought up that Torito and Hornswoggle, rather than doing absolutely nothing, should be hitting every house show given much of the audience there is kids. I said they should bring in Demus 3:16 or Pierrothito so the best mini flyer in the world has a world-class base to work with, but then realized; they already have the best non-luchador base in the world in their company doing nothing already! So why aren't Cesaro and Torito working each other on every house show?

It's depressing that Torito's prime years are being wasted doing nothing for a ton of money in WWE rather than being wasted being underpushed in CMLL, where he would at least be having good matches.

WWE can't even book the Rumble right anymore, the only entertaining aspects of it are waiting to see what bafflingly tone deaf decisions they'll make this time. And you can get that suspense out of literally any WWE event.

The best part about the Rumble is seeing what gimmick characters from the past and what Superstar make a one time appearance.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

The last Royal Rumble was an astonishingly good effort in making the crowd give no fucks. Like, putting Daniel Bryan out there, having him get murdered a minute in, doing nothing important for the next twenty minutes, then having Kane and Big Show eliminate everyone at the end is the work of an evil crowd hating genius.

Yeah it's baffling to me that they didn't even TRY to have Bray harness the nuclear heat of Bryan being eliminated for heel purposes. The portion of the match with Daniel Bryan and the portion with Roman Reigns might as well have been two different matches entirely, there was absolutely no storyline being told throughout. Putting so little effort into booking that poo poo well or at least making Roman look good in it really makes me question how they figured the crowd would react

Seems like the fans are dumb. IWC is trash and probably likes Seth Rollins, the biggest failure of a top guy since HBK.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

I, for one, am happy that Bo Dallas is back.

It sucks that he keeps losing, but I Bolieve in him.

Seriously though, I don't Bolieve in his booking. He is back doing the same thing as he was before he was injured, which is cool. And he is getting time to cut his promos and get teh crowd to hate him, which is also cool. But I don't think that WWE has any idea/plan with what to do with him apart from feeding him to babyfaces. I legitimately enjoyed his "streak" untill it was inexplicably ended by R-Truth of all people. And now, without any sort of direction, and no hope of even upset victories I can see him getting stale and lame very quickly.

For the first 10 entrants, this year's Rumble was one of the best of all time, and oh boy did it go off the rails for the other 2/3rds.

Royal Rumble 2016 should be all Kanes, somehow. They'll figure out a way. Bring back Luke Gallows, put Taker under a mask, just 30 Kanes.

Where is the bottom for these ratings? It's still September, there is a long football season still to go.

How close are they to dropping the average rating of USA? I can't imagine they are close, but these are free falling.
