Lmao I just realized, Ronda Rousey is legitimately pulling a reverse CM Punk 2:

 

[Jacob Fox]

Actually she was out of the country. The WWE probably chartered a private jet to fly her out earlier today and hid her.

Yes but she said she would be out of the country and would not be back until February. So it was still a lie

Royal Rumble 2018 delivered one of the greatest Royal Rumble matches of all time

2/10 for the WWE Title match.

I enjoyed it. Especially both Royal Rumbles. Everything from Seth Rollins' incredible, and innovative way to eliminate, to New Day's outside help with kofi, all the way to the final 4. I was on the edge of my seat. I was rooting for Finn Balor to win. I see Balor as a threat now. I mean, for Balor to stay in there for the duration of the Royal Rumble? That's some Shawn Michaels-level sportsmanship. I see Balor as Champion by the end of next year, if not sooner. But Nakamura winning is a surprise. I was not expecting him to win. I was expecting Asuka to win. I was rooting for Becky or Sasha to win the Rumble, and both did a immaculate job in there. I'm happy with how Women's Rumble turned out. It wasn't really forced, it was because EVERYONE wanted to win. Like, for real. They wanted to win. I'm happy.

The handicap wasn't perfect, but it was tolerable. The RAW Tag Team match was stupid on many levels. Jordan embarrassed himself in there. I see Jordan vs Rollins at Elimination Chamber. Mark my words. That ending was fucking Blue on many levels. When Jordan walked the edge of the ring early in the match the first thing out of my mouth was "what the fuck!? What was that!?" And then, the ending - "Yeah, Rollin's going to have a problem with you soon."

And by the way: Corbin is PISSED. Did you all see that shit? I was like "Corbin is PISSED!" I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of his anger.

One thing is clear, though: WWE really, really wants Japan.

I wasn't expecting much from Rousey's appearance, so the ending is pretty "it is what it is." But I do expect something bigger on RAW from both Rousey, the state of the championships (asuka's choice being one).

I do have a question about the match, though. What about Tye Dillenger? Where does this go now? I found it odd that WWE left him out completely. Sami being in the Rumble is supposed to be void. I am curious about this of everything we learned in this Royal Rumble.

WWE can use this as a storyline to eventually put Dillenger in Wrestlemania for Universal Championship...

I think if you have left over questions and want to know more and you have enjoyed the Rumble WWE have done their job. They have several plot hooks they can follow up on, I think they had the right people win and overall they made a great rumble- both of them. Asuka was an obvious win, Shinsuke kind of leaked in the 24-48 hours before the rumble.

Even having Roman in at the end helped make it as I was not 100% sure Shinsuke would win and thought WWE might wreck the night but it Eliminat(ion)ates most doubts in my mind for the next PPV.

Okay its 11:59pm on Monday night in Australia & I just finished watching the
entire Royal Rumble pay per view...and I really enjoy it.

~ I haven't watched the kick off show...but I know The Revival & Bobby Roode
had wins which is great.

~ Styles vs. Owens/Zayn was okay I guess...I have no complaints and
I'm glad Shane & Daniel were nowhere to be seen during it.

~ The Usos retained in a solid match...again no complaints. I'm hoping
Harper & Rowan are the next in line for a title shot.

~ The men's Rumble match was great...and I've taken a few notes...
+ Rusev is so OVER right now...
+ Corbin is still a moron...
+ It was cool for Almas to get a run...
+ Tye Dillinger had #10 again...but didn't get a run...
+ Its a shame Matt Hardy wasn't around for The Hurricane...
+ Can someone explain to me what is so special about Adam Cole?
+ I'm guessing Mysterio will be the GM for 205 Live?
+ So much for Ziggler's "Big Return"
+ I was really pulling for Balor during the entire match...

The final 4 was great & I'm stoked the WWE went with Styles/Nakamura
for Wrestlemania. Give them 25 minutes & complete booking freedom and
watch the magic happen.

~ Rollins/Jordan vs. The Bar was flat & kind of lame...plus the crowd was
completely dead for it. I called the title change but...

~ Lesnar vs. Strowman vs. Kane was exactly what I expected...and its a
real shame the WWE are holding Strowman back.

~ And the women's rumble was fine...I mean it could have been better...
but for a first run I thought it was fine...and I made a few notes...
+ Sasha & Becky as #1 & #2 made me cringe...but it made sense...And they both looked amazing...
+ Lita looked awkward in the ring...
+ Kairi Sane was eliminated far too quickly...
+ I was shocked at the booking of Tamina...
+ Naomi spot was cool...but was for nothing in the end...
+ I will admit I was annoyed when Becky was eliminated...but at least Ruby did it...31 minutes for the Irish Lass Kicker...
+ Ember is never going to get one up on Asuka is she?
+ It was great to see Beth Phoenix...
+ I think Asuka should have entered the match earlier...
+ Nia just can't handle the numbers game...which makes perfect sense...
+ Sasha going Heel late in the match was great...especially when she dumped Bayley out...I cheered!
+ Carmella is always going to be Nikki Bella's bitch isn't she?
+ The Mickie/Trish face off was great...
+ Sasha Banks is going to go down as the greatest ever "Runner Up" in women's wrestling isn't she?
+ I was shocked at the lack of NXT talent...I mean only 2 of them got a run...
+ And...if Ronda was at the arena...why wasn't she in the match? And why is she pointing at the Wrestlemania sign?
+ I guess in the end...Asuka was the most logical choice...but in my heart I still wanted Becky to win.

All in All...a great event even if the match order was a little strange to me.

+ Can someone explain to me what is so special about Adam Cole?
