Keep in mind that if Cena loses, he very well may win the Royal Rumble. When announcing AJ Styles, ring announcer Greg Hamilton paused after he said 'from Gainesville, Georgia.' almost as if to say 'you guys still want to cheer for Styles now?' Neville's cruiserweight win was the right move but WWE has a huge task on its hands in making this division matter.Įverytime chatter drums up of John Cena possibly turning heel, WWE rolls out a new line of Cena merchandise and then it's all like 'nevermind.' The announcers are really leaning into the whole ' Rich Swann's parents died' thing. If I was a WWE Superstar, I'd have the ring announcer read my Tinder profile. Neville was introduced as the 'self-proclaimed king of the cruiserweights.' I love when WWE Superstars add a little pizazz to their introductions. The only thing that would have made the cruiserweight video package better is if anybody actually cared about the cruiserweights. YESSSSSSSS THE MAN THE LEGEND RETAINS!!! THANK YOU BRAUN #ThankYouBraun #UniversalTitle #RoyalRumble Your WWE Hacky Hipster Tweet of the Night: The Royal Rumble lottery balls were red (presumably for Raw Superstars), blue (presumably for SmackDown Superstars), purple (presumably for cruiserweights) and green (presumably for Braun Strowman). #RoyalRumble Alamodome attendance over 52,000!Ĥ9,000 of those are Smackdown commentators.

Now I'm just waiting for him to go under the ring and grab a podcast microphone.Īfter Roman Reigns' loss to Kevin Owens with help from Braun Strowman, here's a list of possible Royal Rumble winners: Owens hit a Stone Cold Stunner and stomped a mudhole in Reigns. Right next to anybody in a YouTube comment section and Peter Rosenberg.ĭEAR JERICHO PLZ DROP YOUR GUM IN ROMAN'S HAIR WHEN YOU ARE ABOVE HIM #RoyalRumble #SharkCageGumAttack This will make things easier for Botchamania.Īs Jericho drops brass knuckles from his shark cage after the referee failed to properly pat him down, I realize that WWE referees are the most incompetent human beings on the planet. During the Roman Reigns match, he mentioned that Triple H outlasting Reigns in last year's Royal Rumble was the second time it happened. Owens' stacked chair ensemble looks like a throne for the King of Jenga.Įarlier in the night, Michael Cole mentioned that Ric rr was the only man to ever win a WWE Championship in the Royal Rumble. Like a foreign language version of what The Rock used to do. One of these days, I want to see a WWE Superstar learn a foreign language and begin commentating in that language during their match. Roman Reigns and Kevin Owens brawled in the crowd near the Japanese announce table. You can tell which WWE fans don't shower by how many loud, male cheers erupted when Kevin Owens showed up. Let me know if you are watching the last 5 episodes of #HolyFoley tonight after #RoyalRumble so I can block you

Speculation at my house among my kids that could be a surprise #RoyalRumble entrant.
