I kind of liked this one I heard

New Age Outlaws are Tag Champions
Batista won the Rumble
Orton beat Cena

Happy you got your Attitude Era back

I think WWE is taking a huge chance with the current fan base by trying to reach to their older demographic. After Bray and Bryan had an early MotY contender, how do you not call an audible and put him in the match? He wouldn't even have to do much at #30, and it'd please the current fan base.

You could have had Roman, Bryan, and Batista in the final three, and pleased both the past generation of fans as well as it's current crop. Instead, WWE is alienating their audience, which is never a good idea.

Tista and Orton weren't part of the Attitude era. They were "Ruthless Aggression" era.

Batista sucks. It's cool to see him, whatever. But main event? NO.

Bet you anything the rumors are true. WM is shaping up to...

Cena vs Bray Wyatt
Bryan vs Sheamus
Batista vs Orton

For WM 30? That sounds terrible.

I think it would of had been better for WWE to have Batista Main Event Summerslam or something. I like Batista It ain't a good play especially morale of people. Unless Batista is making a full time return to WWE. I feel they are punishing the guys like they did with The Rock to have a guy who ain't on the roster really and not putting in the work main event your biggest show of the year. WWE if they are lucky might give us Lesnar vs Batista which I think would be way better then Orton vs Batista. I don't think Bryan should of been on the ppv cause of injury. I think they would of been better if he was ruled out with a concussion but on twitter he sort of thrown the heat on Management and rightfully so I mean he just put on a amazing match and for them to say he can't do a spot in the rumble is kind of weird. Sadly it put a lot of heat on other wrestlers cause they kept him off the ppv.

I can Rock, but Batista isn't the draw that Rock is. I didn't want Rock in either main event... damn sure don't want Bashitsta in another one. This is not 2005... I liked him them.

I missed half of the tag title match but what I saw was good. There were some nice sequences in the match that I though might lead to a win. I sadly didn't predict the NAOs winning but I should have known. Now can the Usos please be the next tag team champs?!

Bryan/Wyatt was really good and for sure match of the night. I totally did not see Bryan losing.. The match was so much better than I was expecting it to be so I'd like to see a rematch where Bryan wins.

Lesnar/Show was just okay to me. The match was short and the beat down, both pre-match and post-match, was too much! That chair breaking was crazy. I've never seen that at least.

The Cena/Orton match was pretty boring to me at first. I LOVED the crowd's reaction to the match. The constant Bryan chants and the chants of "THIS IS AWFUL" as well as "WE WANT DIVAS" were amazing. I do think the match got a little better towards the end but still how many times do we need to see Cena/Orton..?

The Rumble was a total let down. It was really predictable and there were hardly any surprises. I really wanted anyone but Batista to win but of course he had to win. I am not even a huge fan of Reigns but I think having him win over Batista would have created a new star instantly and would have been best for business.. I guess not though and instead a 55+ year old looking former Rumble winner won.. Whatever.. I hope his reign is short and some new and or deserving people get the spotlight.

In the end the PPV could have been so much better. The only thing that saved the night for me was that I only paid $10 for it since I was splitting the cost with friends. The night in general was good; the PPV not so much..

What happened with the chair?

Lesnar kept hitting Show with it and the back rest part broke off.

That wasn't enough though so he got another one and continued to beat the shit out of Show..
