Nah, it's 2016, could've been a slew of other guys to get this type of look.

But Sasha and AJ was the shyt. Plus Sami setting up an Owens feud is dope. But Ambrose needs somewhere to go now... Jericho??? Again, it's 2016.

They were at least smart about it this year. The past two years the writing was on the wall in giant neon letters and they ignored it.

Booking Trips to win in NXT's home city was always going to get a pretty positive reaction. I'd be surprised if he doesn't take the strap on TV there

For me, the most satisfying Rumble win in recent years is still Rey going the distance for Eddie, in 06, so yeah - 10 years.

it was really good...the ending could've been different but to be honest it could lead to a good story and if so, the finish is vindicated.

they didn't need to bolster the 30 with :flabbynsick: guys, everyone in there was physically credible or a former champion of sorts, they made AJ Styles look like A BIG FUKKIN DEAL which i didn't expect...great move talking about his IGWP title and touting him as a 'hot free agent'.

they made the wyatts look devastating; which proves my point: guys can lose and be rebuilt in the right scenarios if they're sizable and formidable...

my only real gripe:

they JOBBED THE FUKK out of mark henry...wtf

including the whole segments

KO vs. Ambrose - A-
New Day vs Usos - B+
Kallisto vs. ADR - B-
Charlotte vs. Lynch - A
Rumble - A

it was an outstanding PPV

The Rumble match itself was really good. That's all I've seen so far. Gonna try to watch as much of the rest as I can before Raw starts tonight.

I really enjoyed the show. The rumble wasn't even that bad given how few real superstars there were.

the talent carried the show. to think how good it can all be if management and creative gave them some help.
So post Raw? What do you see? Is that Enzo tag team crossing over to Raw along with Sami? Is Sami staying on Raw from NOW on? Is AJ staying on Raw from now on or do they remove him from TV magically? When is Nakamura appearing? Night after Mania? And we still don't know exactly what Rock and Austin are doing at Mania...might be a guest ref thing....might be a deal where the Rock gets double teamed and you do the WM 8 Ultimate Warrior scenario to have Austin come out for the save?

Is it really just Sasha vs Charlotte for the title or will Becky be added for the Triple Threat?

No. Austin and Rock will have a segment and their time...no matter what. I don't think Michaels is gonna miss out either...Bret might even be there.
