the IWC in a rage about JOHN CENA losing? 15 years ago they wanted him injured or maimed so he couldn't compete anymore

And done.
I thought the rumble matches lacked surprises and the way Jey won felt anti-climatic but the matches were fun overall. I wish Sol Ruca had been in the women's rumble, but glad Jaida had her moment.

not even the women's lol, the men's. Because Jey won?
like 6 months ago I realized that for my own mental health I have to tune out the IWC discourse for Jey because they've invented a narrative that he sucks in the ring and everyone now believes it. They'll never make me hate him

Once I realized Punk wasn’t winning like I thought (which I’m fucking good with him not winning it) I was all aboard the Jey train. As with who was left it was the better story.

Logan, no. Just no

Cena, there’s more story to tell with the chase. Him earning a shot right out the gate, honestly not good storytelling imo.

Jey finally getting a World Title, at Wrestlemania? That would be great stuff right there!
