So I was at a friend's house last night and didn't hear much of the commentary because people kept talking. Watching it right now and it's funny to me that Michael Cole tried to give Steph a bunch of layups and she just kept missing the lobs.

So yeah...

The AJ/Zayn/Owens match was dope, I'm just hopin' this doesn't lead to yet another Zayn/Owens feud, at least not right now.

The Usos/Benjagable match was kinda a let down... that first fall was good shyt, but the 2nd one just came so suddenly and outta nowhere and boom, match over.

Men's Royal Rumble was :bryan: Everybody that should look good did look good for the most part. Had a number of mark-out moments, had some surprises, and the winner made the crowd happy, so :bryan:

Tag title match was :comeon: but at least it effectively ends this Rollins/Jordan team-up, so fukk it, :bryan: And it also probably ends Rollins' never-ending rivalry with Cesaro & Sheamus so :bryan:

Triple threat was what I expected, of course Kane took the pin, of course Strowman fukked everybody up but didn't win... I do find it interesting though, they made it a point to show Braun get in the ring and tell Brock "you didnt beat me!" Maybe that Braun/Brock thing ain't over yet...

Women's Royal Rumble... lotta people questioned why it would go on last, but this woulda been hard to follow... the returns kept the crowd poppin', and they love the winner so :bryan:. Sure they coulda dropped in a bunch of NXT girls that most of the crowd doesn't know yet, but the Rumble is always about keepin' the crowd excited, so that woulda been pointless, especially being that it's the very first one ever. Also it was a dope nod to the women past and present.

I knew people would complain about the Rousey thing, but people were gonna complain if she was in the damn thing too, hell they were complaining when "the sheets" said she was gonna win it... doesn't make a diff. Time'll tell how well she does in the E but stuff like that is dope- it's for the crowd. At least for once in a hot minute, they really did seem to make sure they sent the crowd home happy and hyped about what they had seen. Compared to how they did the crowd for Raw25, I'd say the people in Philly got a good damn show.

Neckbeards are making too much of Sasha looking at the clock and not paying attention to where Lita was. Sasha took everyone's finisher in the Rumble and made them all look like death. Then she heeled it up wonderfully against Bayley, Trish and Asuka.

Sasha was one of the MVPs of the women's Rumble. :manny:

Watched both Rumbles which were pretty entertaining with the right winners. Everything else was FF city

Women's rumble had too many spots where the ladies would get hurt then roll to the outside and sell, then bringing back women who werent that great to begin with to do dangerous spots where they get tossed over the ropes
