WWE Royal Rumble 2021

That was so nothing, honestly. I have no idea what was the appeal of 54 years old Goldy. DDP looks kinda bored. He says Miz is stoopid if he doesn't cash up right now.

To get annihilated by Drew who barely broke a sweat? What?!

Where is this DDP thing anyway?

On the WWE Youtube channel, it's a watch along, but DDP was there only for the Goldy match. Just enough time to plug DDPY. (hey, I did those seven 10 sc push-ups on the Jacked 7 routine, while even Darby Allin was cheating the fuck out of it)

The WWE "Good parts only" finisher spam sprint title match style is the most bankrupt title match structure in history. Just hollow and pointless.

You're not wrong, but would a 20-minute match with Goldberg have been any better? Definitely not!

Goldberg likes MMA stuff. Use some holds. There's a story you could tell that wasn't that. Something with narrative and build and a payoff.

Of course the other option is just to not fucking book it? It's a style and a pattern, not just one match.

R-False getting on the wrong side of Banks.

Carmella pulling a Sasha Banks on that dive

[hammerva]

Damn Carmella almost Lita' herself on that dive.   Luckily it seems the only thing hurt was some extensions left outside

[El-P]

Wow, Sasha Banks is so great and Carmella has apparently improved a fuckload. I'm really digging this match.

Also, is Sasha wearing a legit Vuitton outfit ? That's something else.

[KawadaSmile]

Glad you're seeing the light, bubba El-P. Carmella is great.

[Steve T]

I really enjoyed match #2 (Sasha Vs. Carmella). Sasha Banks worked an excellent match and Carmella was pretty much able to keep up.

Well, I haven't watched a Carmella match in years. Of course working with Sasha doesn't hurt, damn that girl looks just as great as she was a few years ago. Really good match.

True, Sasha is incredible. But at the same time, Carmella has been good for a while, but sadly got sandbagged in one of the biggest matches of her career against Charlotte.

Doing a Rumble live blog, thought the women's tag on the pre-show was terrible. Usually the pre-show matches deliver a lot better than that.

Kofi isn't going to be in the Rumble match?   I guess Kacy is going to do double duty on the crazy non eliminations tonight

[El-P]

Get on with some Rumble match people, it's getting late and I'm sipping rhum. I won't be able to sustain this snail pace of a show for too long.

Hey ! Kofi ! That guy's standing surely has changed a lot since that Daniel Bryan match at Mania... He looks like a totally different guy and total single star now. 

Ok, maybe too much rhum already...

[KawadaSmile]

GI Bro is here!

I love that their response to this was Bad Bunny

Yes.

But why ?

And why this stuff no one cares about on a show WITHOUT AN AUDIENCE !

Truth be told, New Day does feel bigger nowadays IMO. Big E is the IC champ and is probably gonna have a program with Roman down the road, Kofi and Xavier are great as usual, and each is getting their own personal feud atm.

I know I am not the target audience but pretty sure most of the guys in the back aren't his target audience as well

Oh... 

Do you know that on the latest Lil Kim album (yes, it exists), there's a song that begins with a sample of Micheal Cole saying "Mark Henry" ? Well, now you know, and I'm sure you're glad you know.
