30-Man Royal Rumble Match Winner: Brock Lesnar!

 

Well, tonight was, so far, the best PPV event of the year. I would say the best matches were the mixed tag team match, the Reigns/Rollins match, and the Women’s Royal Rumble Match. It was good to see some familiar faces. I always love Royal Rumble matches, as you never know who is going to show up and when.

Sadly, while the Men’s Royal Rumble Match was still good, the finish was all too predictable when Brock Lesnar showed up. It was already set up as a match between him and Reigns when Reigns, with the help of Paul Heyman, screwed Lesnar over in the WWE Championship match.  That being said, it will be interesting as to who Ronda and Brock choose who they will face at “Wrestlemania”.

I will say this. It was interesting to see Mickie James not only show up, especially how things went down but, she showed up with the Impact (TNA) Knockout Championship, and the announcers, and the graphic, acknowledged her as said champion. Maybe that forbidden door has been opened, even if it is just a crack, who knows who will show up on WWE television, and vice versa.

The next WWE event will be the “Elimination Chamber” on February, 19th, from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia!
