Official Royal Rumble 2022 Thread: 20 Years in the making

[Dog Based Gremlin]

Bunny did Shine and the crowd liked him but that first half of the Rumble...I wish I stomp the balls of who had those names come one after another. Just terrible. The thing about 1995 and that Rumble...we are all grown now..you can kind of watch and just laugh at how fukked up the gimmicks were. Whats the excuse for this in 2022? Lol.

In WWE's defense, they're product is geared towards kids and families now in 2022.

We living back in the early 90s era but as adults

Does botox and lip injections count as "surgeries"? If not, then she probably hasn't had any

I feel like she has a BBL as well lmao

Back to the Rumble. great pop for Mickie James

Wait a minute, they had Shane in the final three? Shane?

Happy for Bobby Lashley, but God damn that match was random as hell. The booking did not make Lashley look strong and the ending had WCW levels of fukkery in a bad way. WWE is really late 90s WCW status right now.

And they had Ronda enter at #28? Why not #30? They always have the weirdest numbers for surprise entrants now. I think Edge came back at #21 two years ago.

Shane outlasting Randy in his hometown is the kind of stuff that makes people hate the product. The final three should have been Brock, Drew, and Randy. How do you even mess that up?

When Shane came out my first thought was the fired so many people management gotta fill in.

What happened to the Usos/Viking Raiders match? Was it a dark match?

That shyt screamed NWO.

Oh look! Vince has no idea how to book the WWE title at mania but of course he’s had Roman vs Brock #18387328 planned out since last mania.

There would be a ton of talent that could have a lot of star power had he not made everyone on RAW not named Bobby (I ain’t mad at that) look credible. What’s Finn doing at mania? Oh probably that Andre memorial shyt. Vince could literally build towards a damn good Finn vs Bobby feud leading up to mania smh.

Probably gonna get some shyt like Bobby Vs Edge

Yeah

I don't mind seeing Brock Lesnar in WWE, he clearly still draws ratings. But like you said, the rest of the roster has no credibility at all. They look like pawns to throw at Lesnar or Reigns. Back in WWF prime days you had multiple wrestlers who could win a title at any given moment. Right now the core of the product is this Reigns-Heyman-Lesnar triangle and the rest of the show is skippable and way too scripted with no improvisation at all.

What is Vince gonna do when Lesnar leaves WWE again or Heyman decides to call it quits? Is Vince bringing back Cena for the millionth time? They had years to prepare for the transition when WWE legends decide to retire and all Vince has to offer is Reigns and bunch of guys that don't really sell tickets that well. WWE is going to look devastatingly bad 5 years later.

That’s exactly who I thought of when I saw her lmaoo.

I heard her names a few times, but other than that I wasn’t too familiar with her or how she looked

 

[White City Black]

All four in the same picture. Stop fukkin playing with me



Whorehouse full of Blondies with Ivory running the show



Oh, team

Man we all had our gripes about the Rumble matches but this year’s Womens joint was a true mix of Divas era and the current gen (Beth and Maryse having their own match on the card is included in that).

Judging by all the pics online I bet the locker room was lit

Some of these same chicks getting their first glimpse of Ronnie backstage

I only knew her name from WWE 2K19.

 

[Buzzed Lightyear]

I figured it would be Lesnar vs Lashley since many ppl got Brock winning the Mens Rumble

Ronda Rousey coming??

That's why I stay away from certain threads because ya'll be killing the element of surprise with these predictions.

TSC marks claim the rumble was wack Rumble thread gets the most replies out of any other Rumble and several WrestleManias

"They didn't book what I want" = this show sucks in 2022

Imagine caring about the WORKRATE in a rumble or battle royal match we only care about moments, and it's been that way since the beginning...these nerds don't even know what to complain about
