So they bring in Rock to try and get Reigns a babyface pop. That wasn't going to work on this night.

Royal Rumble

- BUBBA RAY DUDLEY!!!

- The fucking Boogey Man

- OK, I sort of wished that Harper and Bubba would have lasted longer.

- Bray Wyatt had a little mini-run that CM Punk had a few years ago with the SES.

- DDP!

- I love DDP’s expression when Rusev was out.

- No Kofi magic this year.

- Philly turns on ROMAN REIGNS

- OK, sending out Ambrose, Barrett, Cesaro and Ziggler toward the end was clearly there to deflect too much booing but it was rough for awhile.

- Man…. Big Show and Kane until the end.

- OK, the Rock coming out to save this abortion and the crowd hears its whistle.

- I didn’t know about Rusev not being eliminated.

- Batista 2.0 Indeed. Credit to whoever said that.

Brock Lesnar is face now whether they meant him to be or not. No way they recover Roman Reigns in time for Wrestlemania.

Trips is looking worried. Not in character but because the crowd doesn't give a shit.

Reigns has no idea how to deal with this.

Man the Road to Wrestlemania sure has a lot of pot holes.

Reigns is dead in the water

Totally pathetic. Vince's death is the only small chance this company has to live at this point.

Legit surprised there's no garbage being thrown into the ring

So horrible. Last year taught them nothing. This is even worse. So many anticlimactic eliminations too. Horrible on every level.

so, if they don't do a repeat with Bryan (which I can't see), what the hell does he do? Rusev?

They are so out of touch with reality it's really completely mind boggling.

Who is the new Pat Patterson? He should...take a seat for a few decades.

Oh man - some geek in the front row with a "If Reigns Wins We Riot" sign staring poor Roman down as he walks to the back. What a sadly predictable disaster.

Totally pathetic. Vince's death is the only small chance this company has to live at this point.

If he was responsible for booking that Rumble, I agree with you.

I always laugh at hyperbolic posts like this. WWE will be alive for decades if not centuries, it is a huge multinational corporation with an incredibly loyal fanbase who tune in every week despite the consistently awful booking.

 

Every person in this thread has probably vowed never to watch again after some terrible show that wasted their time or unfair treatment of a worker ofr awful booking decision.

That's the look of a man who realizes that he's fucked.

Man they were pulling out all the stops to keep Roman from getting booed and it only made things worse. If the Rock can't help you get a pop there's no saving it.

Is anyone dreading the next couple months with the crowds revolting and more trolling? It will probably start tomorrow after raw is rewritten on a donut wrapper

If we all knew Reigns winning would lead to this, how do they not know?

Royal Rumble Match - Goodbye, Roman Reigns.....

OK, so looking at the post-show, Cena is getting Rusev. The most over guy potentially being lost in the shuffle heading into Mania is madness.

They have to know they just don't give a damn.

No one has mentioned Bryan in the post show. No one. He's not in focus. No one has mentioned Bray either. Completely bizarre. Vince talked about listening to the crowd, so what the fuck was that?

How many new fans are they getting though? How many kids tuning in for John Cena keep up with the product after they turn, say, 12 without the memories the older fans have that keep them loyal.
