Felt like a waste not having Trick. Would have fired up the crowd who despite a so so event were as fired up as a turtle on weed.
After the reaction he got on Smackdown, I reckon you might be right.

Replace some of the lower card guys with some fun past wrestlers from left field,

Tye Dillinger, Tajiri, Road Dogg, D-Lo, X-Pac, Glacier, Rene Dupree etc just find someone random.
Id have gone with

Chris Masters. Masterlock challenge on Gunther who tosses him out
Dolph Ziggler. Let him say goodbye
Ron Simmons . Comes in, stares at Omos. Says damn. Gets thrown out
 
It's probably fine that the main event sucked, the real main event is about to go down on YouTube.

If the scrum can't get answers regarding McMahon and what Triple H knew, they should all ******* leave and refuse to cover WWE until they'll speak about it.
Haha if they refuse to cover WWE they're out of jobs.
 
How I rated the event.

8/10 for women’s rumble
2/10 for fatal 4 way (so predictable)
6/10 for us title (good finish but no crazy Logan spot and no need for outside interference)
2/10 for men’s rumble 2nd worst rumble for me ever.

4 out of 10 for whole event. Wish I could have my 4 hrs back
 
McIntyre needs to tell WWE to get ****** and go to AEW

This has been boring as bat *****

Really!? He’s been doing some of the most compelling character work of his career, and has been featured heavily on RAW.

They even left the door open for him tonight to feud with Punk at WrestleMania if Rollins doesn’t get up.

No way should he go to AEW. They’ll turn you from superstar to just another guy at light speed

Don't you know? If you're not winning all the time you're dead and buried.

Really wanted to like that show, but am feeling.... flat

Don't mind Cody winning again, as long as he wins at WM. Losing to Roman again just doesn't make sense.
Punk looked horrible. Slow and lethargic. Looked much better in AEW. Was he injured?
Jimmy trying to find allies was fun, and R-Truth was once again a highlight with his hot-tag.
Gunther looked the best, Jey was there but didn't do a lot, Drew looked good but was never going to win.

The booking was horrendous.
They should stop giving stupid entries to guys like Macafee. That slot could have easily been filled by an actual wrestler.
Where were the story builds? Little bit around the nothing feud of Lashley and Kross. Usos not eliminated by the other Uso. Who is Gunther feuding with after this? Drew? Just poor writing.

The crowd wasn't the greatest either.

After a slow start, the ladies rumble took off and outshone the men's easily.

Reigns and Paul winning again were always going to happen, though the KO DQ swerve did trick me!

So no Rock at the RR. Tipping he'll be at Mania to stop Jimmy and Solo interfering to help Cody win, before building up to a match with Roman down the line.

The Road to Wrestlemania has begun, but only the winners of the RR's have their road set. No other real build or indication of what's to come. But that's fine, gotta have something for the weekly shows and of course EC.
