Well........I didn't feel all that great when I sat down to watch the Rumble and when Rey's music hit I was deflated but I almost expected it. The booing at the end when Batista won was justified, wrestling or should I say wWE seem to think they are the only business in which the customer isn't right.
Bryan vs Bray was an excellent match and sets the bar for this year as the best match so far, Bryan can wrestle a broom and make it work but Bray brought plenty to it as well and was made a star.
They wasted one of Brock's limited dates on THAT?
I'm not sure what Orton vs Cena was like as the crowd were so distracting, I mean I know most of us are sick of, or never liked, that combination, but this was never a title match Bryan should have been in, so the crowd were oddly harsh on them.
The Rumble match had this nervy aura hanging over it, like the fans were anxious to know if Bryan was in it or not, it was a very odd atmosphere. Kane botching his run-in to screw Punk killed the last morcel of hope the crowd had left as they knew it was coming in advance.
WWE made a real effort to make Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns last night, and to an extent they did, but it was so overshadowed by the anger that Bryan was being pushed aside for a 45 year old has-been who was never that big of a star anyway, took away from them, which is a shame as seeing two new guys getting elevated should be a great thing.
I said I was going to quit if WWE pulled what they just pulled, but after the amazing crowd response of non stop boo's for the ******** WWE put on last night, I am curious to see Raw and see how they book around this mess. If they are smart they book Bryan vs Orton for the WWE title in the opening segment and end the night with Bryan as Champion.
Turn Batista heel and have Batista w/Flair vs Bryan w/Hogan at Mania.

Off note, but does anyone know on who Vince was actually interacting with in that gif above? I'm kind of curious to see how it really went down and who he was specifically reacting to.lol
