Royal Rumble 2023 aka 30 years of pointing at sign as Mania main event booking

[Coffey]

This has been super fucking fun so far. Really enjoying it. That Brock elimination dropped my jaw.

I'm doing a live blog at Segunda Caida. I haven't watched a current WWE show since last year's WrestleMania. 15 entrants in, it looks like the roster hasn't changed since 2021.

Apprently Kofi's elimination was a mistake which if true is now the 2nd year in a row that has happened.

You must be real fun at parties.

Corey and Pat talking about Pittsburgh drinking spots is like a fever dream to me

[hammerva]

So I assume based on how Corey is describing Dominik in this match that RAW is still mute worthy TV

Rhea makes it worthwhile. 

[Coffey]

Gargano still being in there is comedy

 

EDIT: RIP

[Tenese Sarwieh]

King of the grifts Booker T.

So, in other words, no one else showed up? I'm sorry.

Booker has them Iron Shiek knees

She has absolutely made him acceptable.

[C.S.]

If Booker T is the only surprise, that sucks.

[hammerva]

Well so much for "only surprise".  Although maybe Edge being there isn't a real surprise.

Maybe read what I said on the first page?

The “Kofi spot” is fucking stupid. I stand by that. It not happening makes the match better.

[sek69]

I guess this means Beth in the women's match?

Not to me, honestly.

[hammerva]

Or Rhea isn't in the women's match due to the "injury"

 

[Coffey]

I thought Beth’s revenge attack would be more than that but I assume we’re getting more. Makes me think Rhea won’t win the women’s Rumble now though 

[Coffey]

Has Omos gotten ANY better?

[Coffey]

Braun should have never trimmed down his beard. He’s really slimmed down too.

[hammerva]

I don't think "Brothers of Bang" is any better if you are WWE brass but still hilarious
