Pretty good Rumble. I was about to roll my own eyes and stomp on them when I thought HGH was gonna win, especially when he and his buddies (HBK and McIntyre) were all in the ring together. Thankfully they swerved from that.

What I liked:

-Orton turning on Legacy. Whether the WWE wants it not, the crowd wants him to go face. They were cheering for him the whole time

-Taker/Mysterio. Not sure what happened to Taker tho, whether it was his nose or mouth. Assuming his nose

-CM Punk's bit, altho he got eliminated too early (and by HGH). Straightedge is awesome

-Beth Phoenix. Her surprise entrance, eliminating Khali, and selling the GTS. For some reason, I love her entrance music. It seems old school to me

-HGH getting eliminated, and sooner than expected

-Avoiding the obvious HBK win

-HBK going ballistic on the refs

-Edge's surpise appearance, and him winning of course Hopefully we get Edge/Jericho at Wrestlemania!

What I disliked:

-Some of the undercard matches were pretty meh. Not bad, but not good either

-The Rumble itself was not long enough

-There were no epic, massive brawls with tons of superstars in the ring during the Rumble

-Some of the younger talent did not get enough of the spotlight in the Rumble

straightedge is far from awesome ... haha

Edge coming out was not a surprise. I saw that coming as soon as he was injured.

 

[UTvol1fn]

Edge wasn't a surprise and that's why the rumble was disappointing

 

[Vol Mania 21]

who is HGH

 

[UTvol1fn]

i think he means HHH.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

gotcha

 

[UTvol1fn]

yea...i didn't know who he was referring to at first. it helps that i watched the rumble.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

[UTvol1fn]

I know, I usually start watching again around this time and get bored with it some time around Summerslam. I'm hoping for a Jericho/Edge matchup at Mania.

it's looking like it....and a undertaker/hbk rematch

 

[chavisut]

I do not want to see Taker's streak end.

Big Show and Kofi Kingston just set professional wrestling back 25 years.

after RAW stopped airing:

Cena came out and scared Vince and Batista away just after Vince kicked Bret in the gut yet again. Cena then had a title match with Sheamus for the WWE championship which ended in a DQ because Batista interfered.

RIP Jack Brisco, and Jack and Jerry Brisco's body shop.

Brisco was one of the best ever. His matches against Terry and Dory Funk in the '70s were as good as any ever held.

 

[Jaytrain5]

Just got around to watching Raw. Predictably awful.

What the hell is with the Orlando Brown angle they've given Big Show?

Wrestlemania looks to be setting up well
