you can have that exact same outcome without bringing in Roman. It's so annoying that every possible event has to make him look amazing

Lol its funny how Roman lost two matches today but still managed to look incredibly strong. Lost to Owens with interferences, eliminated Taker and had to fight Orton/Wyatt alone so it makes up for him losing.

I don't get why they think anyone wants Orton in a main event at their biggest show.

What is wrong with this company.

It's the SD title match so it'll be like 3rd on.

This is the exact quote that has followed all 5 of the last royal rumbles. When will we all realize that the royal rumble is poo poo now, it sends fans home sad and isnt any good.

I thought last year's was alright. But yeah I agree, they've lost their touch with these.

Assuming EC doesn't shake it up drastic, I'm at least semi-interested in this Cena/Orton if Orton is still a Wyatt and we get workhorse Cena.

Team Starmie made it to top 3 and would've won it if it weren't for those meddling Roman Reigns. Good run, everybody.

Reigns in at #30 was stupid, beyond that I'm okay with it. Bray/Orton has been one of the more interesting stories they've told this year, so I'm cool with it going to Wrestlemania.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
BTW its clear they put Roman in so Randy would get cheered for winning. Replace Roman with literally anyone else and the crowd WOULD have turned on Randy in an instant.

Again though this Rumble was in no way loving poo poo, well booked, great angles, not obsessed with comedy but had its moments, it felt like a serious loving rumble.
