Bad Bunny and Sheamus at Mania? I’d be down for that.

IT’S FUCKING SHANE MCMAHON

Bad Bunny has become the first celebrity/civilian to eliminate two wwe superstars in a rumble.

IT’S LESNAR

Lesnar, Bad Bunny, and Shane McMahon in the finals. Just like we all predicted.

Why in the fuck is Shane in the final three?

Man, this Rumble was not that good. It might be the worst Rumble since 2015.

I think it would’ve been better had they separated the Bad Bunny, Shane, and Lesnar surprises instead of having them in the last five entrants.

I hope Lesnar chooses Roman, especially after what he did to him to cost the championship earlier.

With Brock Lesnar winning, all of the original OVW Big Four (John Cena, Randy Orton, Batista, and Brock Lesnar) have now each won 2 Royal Rumbles.

Cena, 2008 and 2013.

Orton, 2009 and 2017.

Batista, 2005 and 2014.

And now Lesnar, 2003 and 2022.

This is also the largest gap in-between Royal Rumble victories ever, surpassing Triple H’s 14-year gap from winning in 2002 and in 2016.

I just realized, Finn and Cesaro didn’t even get a spot in this match. What the fuck?

Saw the highlights not impressed with the ppv not only that it was too predictable i knew Paul Heyman was turning on Brock Lesnar then he wins the Rumble Ronda also predictable and won who was booking this awful PPV except the Universal Champion match was pretty good.

So these two ex-UFC bums are winners of Royal Rumble this year.

Finn has only been in one rumble

While I doubt I’ll watch ‘Mania, I just plain don’t want Ronda vs Charlotte.

I’d rather see Ronda’s recognition be used in a feud to build up momentum for someone that hasn’t had a run (or a dozen) at the top of the division; keep things from getting repetitive like Vince tends to do all too often.

Best part of The Royal Rumble was Seth Rollins

Roman done a Seth Rollins in the style when Seth Rollins turned on The Shield

I think Roman Reigns should defend against Brock Lesnar Seth and Big E at Wrestlemania 38 we haven’t had a 4 way since Wrestlemania 2000

According to PWInsider, Riddle was originally planned to win The Royal Rumble.

Edit: Fightful says that’s not the case

Man, Shane McMahon went from producing the Royal Rumble, to a possible WrestleMania match with Seth Rollins, to being penciled in as being on Raw every week, to being let go by the company. What a tumultuous 96 hours.

I wonder if the reason Shane was let go was because he booked himself to be in the final three of the Rumble. I feel like that has to be a major contributing factor why.

I know some people have been complaining about Owens and Rollins possibly feuding again when they already feuded two years ago. However, I think them having another Mania match is okay because the dynamics are reversed.

It’s essentially a role reversal from their Mania match two years ago, where Rollins is now the babyface instead of the heel and Owens is now the heel instead of the babyface.

I also read a report that Austin Theory wasn’t originally supposed to beat Kevin Owens to qualify for the Elimination Chamber. Instead, it was gonna be Shane McMahon. Shane was gonna qualify for the Elimination Chamber.

I can’t believe Austin Theory legitimately replaced Shane McMahon as Vince’s son.

Just remember: if the Shane stuff is true and he booked himself to look like a beast, it still had to have been approved by Vince. Only reason Vince let his son go is because the match was poorly received. They let a person who hasn’t been a part of WWE in over 6 months book the Royal Rumble. Shane is ultimately the scapegoat of the actual problem, even if this was all his vision.

AEW Dynamite tonight!

CM Punk vs MJF should be really damn Interesting & The Kings of The Black Throne vs PAC & Penta is a Tag Team Match I’m pretty much looking forward to aswell mhm! :D
