Ugh. Logan Paul?

 

OK, maybe not on Rey.

 

That was a great spot with Ricochet, though.

 

Ok, that mid-air collision was impressive.

 

We've still only had 29 men enter the ring. Or are they going to treat it like Curtis Axel, who still hasn't been eliminated after 10 years?

 

So we had a 29-man rumble. Was a finish telegraphed from a mile away, but looking forward to the build of Cody/Roman.

Still grimaced at the change from Walter to Gunther, but that man is an absolute machine.

 

Axel got “eliminated” nearly a year later on Raw when he came out to interrupt Ambrose/Moxley to complain that he was never eliminated. Dean/Jon beat him up, threw him out and pronounced him eliminated.

 

Helluva Rumble. They’ll explain that Dom and the Judgment Day beat up Rey before he came out with some backstage footage.

Kofi’s spot seems like it was botched again. They tried to make it seem like he wasn’t quite eliminated, but then he was forgotten.

Logan/Ricochet crash will be played endlessly for years.

Gunther was awesome, but he’s a year too early.

Cody was the semi-predictable winner, but it would have been better if he was a surprise return rather than announced.

Women’s Rumble seems almost like an afterthought unless they do something really special.

 

At least we've got some new stories going now:

Cody/Roman, Seth/Logan, Rey/Dom (FINALLY), and Edge/Beth vs. Finn/Rhea

 

Somewhere, Naomi is throwing a brick at her TV that this match wasn't made for her.

Riddick Moss wasn't in the Rumble even though he was on the graphic earlier today, but at least his brother could be in the Super Bowl.

Oh, brother! WWE star, Eagles coach ready for big weekend

 

OK, I was about to gripe about why they had the toolbox thrown in the ring and never used it, but that dive just made up for it.
