Yea I was there. Idk if it was cuz the rumble went pretty long, but the crowd was fucking dead from the moment Cody won until Becky made her entrance in the rumble
I am so fucking tired of spooky ookie Alexa. She's so fucking phenomenal as just a bitchy heel who makes up for size with viciousness. Just have her do that.
Took the words right out of my mouth, verbatim. I begged for them to keep him away from her. Never found any of his shit even remotely interesting. She can handle herself. Though she’s been bland as hell during this face run too. But going back to this shit? Rock bottom.
That was fine, maybe a little rushed but pretty okay. Though we all know it's all about the two royal rumbles. Some of you are guys are really overreacting.
Alexa has been wrestling at half speed since she came back. She has never been the best, but that was just bad. It felt like Bianca had her work cut out for her in that one.
The only issue with Bianca's title reigns for me is that she's had a fair few "yep, this is certainly a match" title defenses. Not bad, not outstanding, but they just happened.
That was getting good and then just ended. Wonder if we're going to hear after this event that the men's Rumble was too long and the other matches were shortened for it. That and they want to make damn sure the Roman vs. KO stuff gets the time it needs.
Am I the only one who's utterly sick and bored of Bianca Belair? Her gimmick and attire is so irritating and bland. She's clearly talented and strong as hell, it's wasted on a gimmick that's essentially "girl skips to the ring like a child and does a squash match and leaves"
The match itself was genuinely good, but idk if PPV caliber. It was fast paced and pretty hard hitting. There weren’t any glaring mistakes, almost all moves went smoothly
Definitely should’ve been one Bray / Howdy drama match on the card, and maybe if the repercussions of this one figured into that, it would’ve given that match more meat upon its bones. As it stands, it feels like we got two half-matches, and we haven’t gleaned too much of anything from either of them.
Alexa is my favorite wrestler on the whole roster. I enjoy her in-ring work and promo ability. She has the ability to make even the weirdest most unconventional gimmicks work. Beyond this, she’s also a really authentic and kind person irl. For someone who didn’t come up in the indies and is only 5ft tall, she’s proven herself as an unstoppable underdog time and time again. I really hope she receives better booking in the future
Five years ffs 🤦♂️ humiliated by Ronda Rousey and nearly had her career ended and doesn’t even get one last thank you run despite being one of the most popular females in the company and one of the highest merchandise sellers in the company.
I’m bored enough of the Wyatt/Howdy stuff without it also spilling into the womens’ division. Doesn’t help that Alexa’s also looked rough in the ring since her return.
I mean, what did you expect? Wyatt wasn't losing his first match back, Bianca wasn't ever going to lose to Alexa, and Cody was always the favorite to win the Rumble and is probably the right choice.
Honestly I have a hard time with 2 rumbles you could do 2 separate events with a men's and a women's rumble and move the chamber ppv to before SummerSlam to spread it around
I am amazed that Alexa is still so average "barely" as a wrestler. She's been doing this for so long now, and she's still MEH! She had a very athletic background, so she should be so much better by now. I look at someone like Liv and I see her make leaps and bounds since she left NXT. Feels like Alexa hasn't improved at all.
You're supposed to finish or start stories at PLEs... Not continue them. WTF? I guess Howdy shouldn't have thrown himself off the top until after he spoke to Alexa. Ugh.
Voting for the Smarkies, the Wreddit Awards, and the return of the Botchies for 2022 are open!
Well Alexa sorry Uncle Howdy killed himself before your match lol
There were at least 3 or 4 furries up on that platform, one of them could've helped Alexa.
You just killed me lol
😂
This match could have been an email
i’m whelmed.
Should have been a Slack message.
Like every Alexa match.
A simple phone call would have sufficed.
The last 25% of the RR match has been the only really great part to the show so far IMO.
This match could have been a single emoji text message.
Oof. You could hear a pin drop after that KoD.
feel like Bianca's been losing the live crowd for a few weeks
Yea I was there. Idk if it was cuz the rumble went pretty long, but the crowd was fucking dead from the moment Cody won until Becky made her entrance in the rumble
There’s only five matches on the card, so this was pretty clearly the bathroom match. Sucks for them but don’t think it means Bianca is done
Wow they're really rushing through these matches now
Straight into the Applebees commercial.
Becky confirmed as an insane person who eats dessert with a belt.
I’m hungry now
Both singles matches were very underwhelming. Maybe because of how long the men’s rumble went?
I don’t think either match would have been much better even if they were given more time. In fact they could have been much worse.
The Entire bray shit is just so convoluted and hard to follow for a casual audience.
Or Bray is always hit or miss in the ring and Bliss isn't really able to hang with the big dogs.
That's the reason, but this subreddit needs to blame Bray (and Bliss by associate) at any opportunity.
Because Bray & Bliss are bad, especially in the ring.
This feels like a raw segment lmaoo
Could of been a house match lol
Unsurprisingly, a nothing match
The order of this ppv makes absolutely no sense
Who would have guessed that having two Royal Rumbles and a main story championship match would leave the remaining two matches to be hastily done.
This would've gotten a disappointing half star in 2K.
It was definitely a match.
One of the matches of all time
I love Bianca but she needs better feuds.
Killing time til rhea
You know what never gets old? The shitty entrance animations
That match sucked. And I love Bliss.
Honestly, Bianca’s reign is getting boring
True, hopefully Rhea get's it.
I really thought Uncle Howdy would have mattered more. This didn't need to happen.
Maybe the match was short because Alexa is in the match later?
Didn't hate it, but nothing special.
I shleep
Feel like that's two matches in a row with rushed finishes.
They felt to me that they were only here to do character development with bray and Alexa. Could’ve easily just been on Smackdown.
5 match card where 2 of the matches are pretty much guaranteed to go an hour and there’s also a title match… and it started at 7pm local time.. so…
I wonder if the men's rumble was supposed to go as long as it did.
Could have been a spooky mixed tag.
Well one of them did anyway
I didn't hate it,
What a filler match, Bianca and Alexa deserve better.
Sorry Alexa, looks like you're stuck going back to that shitty female Wyatt gimmick
I feel putting the Men's Rumble first sucked a lot of the energy out of the event. A good match, but a mild crowd reaction.
I am so fucking tired of spooky ookie Alexa. She's so fucking phenomenal as just a bitchy heel who makes up for size with viciousness. Just have her do that.
Alexa needs Livs I'm crazy and I'll do anything to win gimmick.
Took the words right out of my mouth, verbatim. I begged for them to keep him away from her. Never found any of his shit even remotely interesting. She can handle herself. Though she’s been bland as hell during this face run too. But going back to this shit? Rock bottom.
That was fine, maybe a little rushed but pretty okay. Though we all know it's all about the two royal rumbles. Some of you are guys are really overreacting.
I love Alexa Bliss but that shit was boring AF
Bliss was barely allowed to do a move
It was eh. It wasn't great, it wasn't bad. Felt more like a Raw match intended to further Alexa's coming change rather than a championship match.
Bianca is much better chasing the title. As champion. Particularly a face champion. There is nothing there.
Boy that was shit back to back shit
to back
The utter shits
Alexa has been wrestling at half speed since she came back. She has never been the best, but that was just bad. It felt like Bianca had her work cut out for her in that one.
That was short
Not short enough
I liked the sister Abigail into the KOD.
Is uncle howdy an idiot for not interfering in that match?!?!?!
Cena Belair wins
They REALLY need to move faster with this uncle howdy stuff, we pretty much seen that on raw the last month
The only issue with Bianca's title reigns for me is that she's had a fair few "yep, this is certainly a match" title defenses. Not bad, not outstanding, but they just happened.
Belair wins
That was getting good and then just ended. Wonder if we're going to hear after this event that the men's Rumble was too long and the other matches were shortened for it. That and they want to make damn sure the Roman vs. KO stuff gets the time it needs.
Waste of Alexa… Bianca is long overdue 🥱
Least Bianca didn't lose
Am I the only one who's utterly sick and bored of Bianca Belair? Her gimmick and attire is so irritating and bland. She's clearly talented and strong as hell, it's wasted on a gimmick that's essentially "girl skips to the ring like a child and does a squash match and leaves"
Yeah, me too. Her athletism is great, but her acting, current character work & mic work is rather bad. She needs a fresh change tbh.
The match itself was genuinely good, but idk if PPV caliber. It was fast paced and pretty hard hitting. There weren’t any glaring mistakes, almost all moves went smoothly
Those last two matches served their purpose of being come downs between the men's Rumble and the women's Rumble and Roman/KO really well.
You could tell they had to rush that much, such a shame man
that was not good
Pretty underwhelming. Didn't seem to further the story much.
She's bewitched Cedric!
And from that straight into an Applebees ad.
3 for 3 shitefests.
Definitely should’ve been one Bray / Howdy drama match on the card, and maybe if the repercussions of this one figured into that, it would’ve given that match more meat upon its bones. As it stands, it feels like we got two half-matches, and we haven’t gleaned too much of anything from either of them.
Have people started calling Bianca overrated?
There gonna push raquel shes gonna win
Mid asf
Was it me or the match felt somewhat rushed?
Alexa is my favorite wrestler on the whole roster. I enjoy her in-ring work and promo ability. She has the ability to make even the weirdest most unconventional gimmicks work. Beyond this, she’s also a really authentic and kind person irl. For someone who didn’t come up in the indies and is only 5ft tall, she’s proven herself as an unstoppable underdog time and time again. I really hope she receives better booking in the future
This and Brays match are victims of time constraints
Nope, it's clearly the talent that made these matches bad, man.
Do you want longer Bliss and Bray matches?
That was a match that started, then eventually finished.
I think Alexa needed Uncle Howdy
Loved this shit too. It's not about the match, it's about Alexa losing herself after denouncing that fool Howdy.
Five years ffs 🤦♂️ humiliated by Ronda Rousey and nearly had her career ended and doesn’t even get one last thank you run despite being one of the most popular females in the company and one of the highest merchandise sellers in the company.
Just like Bray vs. Knight, It was also just okay. Which isn’t a bad thing, but not anything to write home about.
Did we really need back to back spooky Bray lore matches?
Bianca as champ ia boring AF and the spooky shit didn't make up for this joke of a match
I hope they find some good direction for Bliss.
BIANCWINSLOL.
I've never seen what people see in Bianca as a top talent. Idk I don't get it. No denying she's super talented but there's tons better.
Bianca really is the dullest wrestler this side of Karrion Kross... How do you make Alexa look dull?
Alexa is the shits
Alexa Bliss deserves one more run before her contract expires in 2024 screw wwe.
Pretty standard, I thought Alexa looked good
Belair is boring when she doesn't have Becky to carry her.
Can’t blame her when she one of the most popular females in the company and they treat her like crap
That was a nothing match
This match was bad hey
Bliss doesn't have it anymore and Belair is possibly the blandest champion since the origninal Reigns run.
Disagree on both counts.
You said that already
Alexa deserves better.
Agreed.
[удалено]
Nothing trash about it.
I do not feel in charge
Yay Alexa Sarah Connor Bliss incoming
What a waste of time
Alexa’s cooked
I’m bored enough of the Wyatt/Howdy stuff without it also spilling into the womens’ division. Doesn’t help that Alexa’s also looked rough in the ring since her return.
Great finishing sequence.
[удалено]
Is she though?
So far this event has been way overly predictable.
I mean, what did you expect? Wyatt wasn't losing his first match back, Bianca wasn't ever going to lose to Alexa, and Cody was always the favorite to win the Rumble and is probably the right choice.
Good short match. Ended before it dragged on too long and the right person won.
I don’t know if I’d call that “good”. You are right about the short part though.
For all the buildup, that really was a nothing match.
Wooooo The Match Of All Time!! Woo yeahhh!!
Oh god, can't wait to skip her segments for another three months.
[удалено]
...
I know one thing, that was a match.
This was clearly the cooldown match we usually get at Rumbles. It was decent, nothing great, but much better than their last match a few weeks ago.
Bray Wyatt and all his characters suck.
What a fart of a feud
Is this Monday Night Raw or the Royal Rumble?
Their in ring timing is awful. Crowd couldn’t have really cared.
Honestly I have a hard time with 2 rumbles you could do 2 separate events with a men's and a women's rumble and move the chamber ppv to before SummerSlam to spread it around
Indi has one of the worst movesets I've ever seen.
I was more thoroughly sports entertained by the Wyatt match. Belair is meh as a champ and will probably lose the title to Bliss at Mania
this ppv is honestly feeling like a wet fart
Had so much potential too.
I have not watched WWE since last Wrestlemania. Has Pat always been like that during commentary? He's making the show look bad and it's hilarious.
A very short match, but I enjoyed that.
That was in fact one of the matches of all time
My time has been wasted
I mean it was a match on the Rumble PPV (PLE, whatever) that wasn't the Rumble itself. Not sure what people were expecting
Something better than a Raw match at 9pm on a Monday? 🤷♂️
Short but sweet. I think they redeemed themselves from their Raw match. Chemistry was there this time.
I am amazed that Alexa is still so average "barely" as a wrestler. She's been doing this for so long now, and she's still MEH! She had a very athletic background, so she should be so much better by now. I look at someone like Liv and I see her make leaps and bounds since she left NXT. Feels like Alexa hasn't improved at all.
they should have turned on the spooky neon lights and reveal alexa's spooky makeup and have her win.
Interesting
i hope they had fun
Underwhelming
Had internet issues. Was it any good?
The match itself was whatever. Still teasing spooky stuff with Alexa and Uncle Howdy after the match though.
Best of the night
Nice of the spooky montage to wait until the match ended before showing up
Whelmed
Zzzzz
How long is the Uncle Howdy stuff gonna drag out
Meh
Hey , pee-break matches are back.
Do you feel in charge?
I get you want to get to KO vs. Roman but come oooon maaaaaan
This existed. We are in a rough patch of this show.
Fully expected uncle howdy to fall from the ceiling after that match
Is it bad my mind went to “Do you feel it now, Mr. Krabs”?
You're supposed to finish or start stories at PLEs... Not continue them. WTF? I guess Howdy shouldn't have thrown himself off the top until after he spoke to Alexa. Ugh.
Bianca Belair wrestling with her wedding ring on. Pretty risky choice.
Punished Alexa arc confirmed
She been punished enough since after Wrestlemaina 35 ffs 🤦♂️
The match was very solid overall but not what you expect in a PPV. Feels just lost in mix.
I like Judgement Day. Like more than a friend.
Ok I'ma predicting evil Alexa will be in the Rumble
came to this thread to see the results
That's it?
I thought it was okay
When's Asuka?
Trips why we going 4 hours
YESSSSSS
