Official Royal Rumble 2019 Thread

[Ripp]

I think Kofi is going to win the Rumble before he retires. The crowd would go absolutely INSANE when it happens.

Would be nice but they have to at least let him make it to a final 4 spot... this shyt is rediculous now.. he is just around for elimination spots. I would've went insanse just to have kofi in the final 4... he needs a championship run before it's all said and done

Collapsed at the end of the Women's rumble and woke up in the middle of the AJ/Bryan's match. Said "fukk it" and went to sleep. Show was TOO FUKKING LONG.

I guess the men have it better with the themes or something

But whenever I hear apollo or Curtis Hawkins theme song I have no idea who it is

I didn't realize it was Pete Dunne until he came out.

I consider gargano and black themes iconic... well they will be one day at least

Maybe my point goes towards the women more.

Literally every theme I was wondering who it was

Long story short, the themes to the mid to lower card are generic trash and forgettable.. it also doesn’t help that most sound alike

I remember when they used to put emphasis on Titan tron videos to go with the music

Now it’s just their name in fancy fonts flashing

yea thats something I dont like about the current era, only a handful of people have recognizable themes the rest just have generic safe rock songs.. I think it has some to do with the generic bland era of music we in now. Everyone wants to blend or fit in and not enough people want to stand out

From what I read on here the men's Rumble sounds absolutely awful.

He got no backbone..he should of put a stop to that clown shyt a long time ago. They got Orton looking dominant again and he gets tossed out twice almost every year...dancing when he survives the first toss too. Silly.

It was a nightmare. Lol@Ziggler getting rid of Drew...that's almost a burial to me.

Hold up, Michael Cole really pulled a "good question Shelton"?

They cutting corners when they cut pyro the first year they saved 40 million

Music wise they have a group CFO who make music that sounds like other music sometimes (a lot if the time ) stealing

WWE feels too equal and kinda ehh and its their own doing

Like this should have held more weight

The show was pretty good, as usual they are too damn long and for the 217796364762349656836765th time fukk a pre show, I wish they would have kept the 30 minute post shows, those are so much more entertaining and it furthers the storyline

two things

I knew they wouldnt let AJ/DBRY or Finn close the show, even last year they gave brock and roman the final spot, I dont think either of them will ever close a show again.

the crowd was weak I thought aj and bryan deserved better from them..

I called Becky finding her way back into the rumble, now I just hope vince dont try to force a triple threat, I know they want Charlotte or nia involved





I'm now watching the wwe 24 just to see why brock threw the belt at vince, sitting here like


Also I have to give a big to the wwenetwork app on the iphone. if im out the house and want to watch the show after the initial airing the app forces you to see the wwe homepage which always has the results on the main page, They have spoiled so many ppvs because i simply wanted to login to the app to watch and I'm forced to go through their fukk ass website.. these fakkits give me no chance to avoid spoilers, so I knew the outcome of the mens rumble before i could even hit play. im watching it like

thats why the Vince being a billionaire shyt is not a big deal, these motherfukkers have been doing budget cuts on shyt thats important for the last few years. its misleading, it gives me the impression that the current product isnt generating much money and they only got that bag from fox cause its live

 

[Rayzah]

who knows? maybe he's just tired of being bothered with the fukkery

I think he wanted to drop the belt so he could train for ufc, I remember hearing rumors aroud that time that he was leavinf after mania, and being surprised he retained. I honestly think those dudes get burned out during long title reigns. This is all speculations based off interviews from past champs that have stated they were ready to drop the title after a while

Seth was at his peak 2 years ago, now he's gotten stale, let's just hope he can bring his a game come wrestlemania time.

what? he is the most over he has been in years wtf are you talking about. shyt 2 years ago he was just coming back from a major knee injury, he WAS NOT at his peak. and prior to that he had a long title run, what period are you talking about that was his peak?

An how in the fukk is he stale when everyone chants at the top of their lungs when his music hits? dude is far from stale

Did you miss 2006-2010?

Also, WWE isn't any worse than it was in the 80s and early 90s we've just been spoiled by Stone Cold and the Attitude Era that everything else is now mediocre no matter how good it is.

Basically, kids who don't know Stone Cold exists think this is the best thing ever because they are kids.

As an adult you're just supposed to enjoy it since it is a kids TV show.

Please stop it with the its for kids excuse, stop saying that as an adult you cant appreciate and enjoy something that isnt R rated or for adults per say.. thats not it at all.

WWE has its moments, where you can say the quality is on par with the past generations but as an overall product they purposely dont do shyt that would make it more appealing to adults, they didnt cut those corners in the past. The storytelling not always being consistent, and completely ignoring the fans sometimes is not something they did in the past

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

that was a weird rumble

I gotta say AJ/Bryan matches have been disappointing they dont have good chemistry
even their ROH match wasn't anything special

 

[R=G]

But her match was special..words from the champ
