As a quite big Roman Reigns fan, the Rumble match was swings and roundabouts for me.
First off all; the god-damned crowd. Shut the hell up.
As soon as D-Bry was thrown out (stupid move), fans turned on the match in a bigger way than they did last year. And that’s saying something.
In the last 10-15 minutes of the match, chanting stuff like “We Want Refunds” and “This is Bullshit”.
Now, I’m all for fan participation. It’s one of my favourite things about wrestling. But this, and the stuff I’ve heard about fucking riots. Just…WHAT!
So what if Reigns wasn’t ready. Plenty of things like this have happened in the past. Orton becoming champ in ‘04 is a prime example.
Secondly, the ending itself. Big Show and Kane, two people who can be incredibly dull if they are put in the right position, slowly lugged themselves around the ring and eliminated TWO of the four fan favourites in the match.
And not to mention the way that Reigns eliminated the two of them. Slow as hell. Show and Kane could have helped by making the process quicker.
(Also, gotta love the premature ringing of the bell).
And then Rock arrived (yay) and didn’t talk (Nay).
Then Rusev appeared in a quite hype moment and was eliminated super quick. Santino Marella got longer than that back in 2011 where a similar thing happened.
On a less serious note, Curtis Axel just disappeared, was not eliminated, and was never spoken of for the rest of the match.

When Drew McIntyre shows up on RAW and doesn’t tell the rest of 3MB
So let’s do this again! Hopefully Smackdown Live reloads tonight. I especially want to see The Club reunited with AJ Styles. Stay tuned for my reactions as the night goes on.
8:01pm
They start off with a rather obvious development. They can’t have both secondary titles on Raw and pretend the shows are equal. KO to SDL!
8:05pm
Baron Corbin picks right up where he left off: secondary title feud.
8:07pm
You knew Sami Zayn couldn’t be far behind! Welcome to Smackdown!
8:08pm
AJ Styles is still here!
8:11pm
Wait what? Chris Jericho can win the US Championship and then go away with Fozzy? Does Kevin Owens go back to Raw if that happens? Let’s hope KO keeps the strap and stays on SDL.
8:14pm
Commercial break question: who will Shinsuke Nakamura feud with now that Miz is on Raw?
8:20pm
So what is Erick Rowan doing by himself on Smackdown?
8:23pm
I like the idea of a faction with members on both brands, and it does cultivate a mystique for Bray Wyatt. But the Wyatt Family is misused more often than not. So we shall see…
8:30pm
This is would be a good time for Gallows and Anderson to run in… Wishful thinking, perhaps.
8:40pm
I was right about the incoming tag team ambush. The Shining Stars were not who I had in mind, however.
8:41pm
Jinder Mahal is coming to Smackdown. Woohoo.
8:58pm
Now for the Smackdown Live women’s division! Who’s coming? Charlotte, Sasha, both, neither?
9:02pm
Tamina is coming to SDL.
9:03pm
The crowd wants Sasha. Shane gives them Charlotte. Is Sasha still on the way?
9:04pm
Looks like she isn’t.
9:08pm
Sin Cara on Smackdown makes no damn sense. They never found a place for Kalisto. Rusev will be a good get when he returns. Rusev and Lana can be an “it couple” in lieu of Miz and Maryse.
9:09pm
Aiden English is going to be this round’s Heath Slater.
9:19pm
Uh, Bob Fosse used bowler hats–not top hats.
9:21pm
SDLanswers my 8:14 question with Dolph Ziggler.
9:30pm
Just in case the WWE is reading this, the triple threat match would be a good time to introduce The Club.
9:33pm
The New Day is a good addition. They haven’t had much to do on Rawrecently.
9:37pm
AJ Styles just Too Sweet-ed himself. Foreshadowing?
9:59pm
No Gallows and Anderson. Ah, well.
10:01pm
Smackdown Live is a decent wrestling show–it wasn’t 24 hours ago. Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn and Rusev/Lana aren’t exactly an equal trade for Dean Ambrose, Bray Wyatt and Miz/Maryse. But the newcomers can tell good stories. It will still be a good show, but I care less for this set of characters/wrestlers. If they aren’t going to put The Club back together with AJ Styles, then they ought to do it on Raw with Finn Balor.

Dean mannerisms since his return had been perfect
Dean is gonna break up this form of the shield, just not yet.
In my opinion, Shinsuke Nakamura’s match against Baron Corbin was his best since arriving on the WWE main roster. Nakamura didn’t squash Corbin, yet he was dominant; in a way that nobody else has been against the “Lone Wolf”. This was the SUPERSTAR match the fans have been waiting for from the King Of Strong Style. Of course, this helped set-up the #1 Contender match for the WWE Championship against John Cena for next week’s Smackdown Live, but I’m not complaining. The idea of seeing Nakamura challenge Jinder Mahal at SummerSlam is mind-blowing, especially when you consider how WWE has presented him; having him only “feud” with Dolph Ziggler since joining Smackdown Live.Now, the theorist in me believes [Baron] Corbin will interfere in the match. In all likelihood, WWE will push for Cena to have the championship match, but I still DEEP DOWN wanting to see Nakamura defeat “The Face of WWE”. In five days, we’ll see who The Modern Day Maharaja [Mahal] has to prepare for; Strong Style or Mr Hustle, Loyalty, Respect. I cannot wait to see this match. Thank God, it’s not Orton.
Kurt Angle looks worse for wear tonight.
gXp WrestleMania 34 Predictions
So, it’s here – WrestleMania 34 is tomorrow and the WWEwill (hopefully) put together one of the best cards of the year. The sheer number of matches that are on the card this year (thirteen total matches) and the seven-hour run time of the show means that there is a lot of action to be had with this event. With nine championships on the line throughout the night, two high-profile tag team…
10 WWE Superstars Who Deserve More from the WWE
So, the day after the WWE SmackDown Live pay-per-view event, Fastlane, I am convinced now, more than ever, that certain WWESuperstars are more deserving in their careers than what they have achieved within the WWE to date; especially since three of those that I will talk in this post were featured on Fastlanelast night. But I know that every profession wrestling fan out there knows exactly what…
I can never get enough of Ziggler’s tiny trunks and sweaty crotch!
