    Triple H isn't fat at all, he's lost a lot of muscle mass 100%. He's been Corporate H for a couple years now so he's not been working out.

    This has been done over and over. They did it with Cena too and Stone Cold to name two others. Remember Stone Cold coming out with a suit acting like he was falling in line with the Corporation only to fool them once again. It's Wrestling 101

    That's the problem with the internet. It's been leaked for a while HHH was coming back and likely to win it. WWE/Wrestling in general gets spoiled now because people want to leak chit to the sites and podcasts

    Hopefully they will get it done like last year. The pop when Rollins came out during Lesnar and Reigns to cash in was great. I don't think that was spoiled as much as HHH coming back to the Rumble, so there was actual surprise.

    Scal

    Yea, all that about Reigns/Ambrose etc. makes sense. And even with Ambrose having the title, it still gave the whole "Can...He...Do it?" But that elimination by Triple H on him was very anticlimactic. He flipped him over with his head and shoulders? Come on.

    I was also surprised for the heat on Ryback, too. Personally, I'm not a fan of him but the crowd is usually behind him. However, once he started chanting "Feed Me More" the ENTIRE crowd joined in. And as for Titus...you can never tell if he's getting booed or if they're doing his bark. I initially thought it was a boo but I couldn't tell.

    I agree that they're spoiled but this is where the storylines start to be created by the fans and their statements.

    The pop for HHH was still pretty good but it wasn't so much for the surprise as it was the fact that his appearance means the end for RR.

    Jarrett

    When he was taken to the back, I thought there was a chance he'd win by getting a "Super Cena" type treatment but WWE did good there.

    Personally, I didn't find anything outside of 5dimes and the rumors that HHH v Reigns was booked for WM that said that Triple H would definitely be in this match. Just like last year when Orton was supposed to be a surprise return but he wasn't and Daniel Bryan the year before (he was actually one of the top 4-5 favorites to win but never even entered).

    When he was taken to the back, I thought there was a chance he'd win by getting a "Super Cena" type treatment but WWE did good there.

    Personally, I didn't find anything outside of 5dimes and the rumors that HHH v Reigns was booked for WM that said that Triple H would definitely be in this match. Just like last year when Orton was supposed to be a surprise return but he wasn't and Daniel Bryan the year before (he was actually one of the top 4-5 favorites to win but never even entered).

    And the reaction to Sasha when she came out after Charlotte won was incredible as well.

    The problem is, the last time she fought (I believe) was on the last post PPV-Raw and had the European crowd and they chanted "boring" during her match. Everyone chants "We want Sasha" and then chant "boring" when they finally give her to them. That's the problem with the Divas Division. 

    It goes back to being spoiled. The crowd knows what they want and then you'll finally get it and want something more or different.

    internet or not, HHH apparences to Royal Rumble had been waiting anymore but perhaps not win at the end

    did you see what wrestlers came to the Rumble? it is just pathetic

     Kane and Big Show have just use like a toy

    level of the Rumble doesn t increase the potential of the winner but in fact HHH doesn t need that but wwe goes on bad way as they need to push young and they let won a old wrestler unless it is HHH!

    honestly HHH eliminated Reins and let continues the feud until wrestlemania was the best wwe should had done!  and let wyat and his family win the rumble against lesnar and injuried him at the end but WM without lesnar should be bad for business that s the problem!

    after perhaps sting vs wyat for the title should had been the best main event for wm!

    you say it is not sure that it will be HHH vs Reins but noway it is sure no choice  fast lane is just a filler pay per view ( else an injury is going to happen)

    Royal Rumble is going to change in the future

    look it is the first time when Ambrose vs HHH at the end  they didn t look the WRESTLEMANIA BOARD  it never happened before  , it is perhaps because stipulation of the rumble with the title but I will be not surprising if the Rumble will give not the right to the winner to go to main event wrestlemania, this pay per view is going down wwe is starting to broke all with the past and make new way on my mind but they do step by step

    I was also surprised for the heat on Ryback, too. Personally, I'm not a fan of him but the crowd is usually behind him. However, once he started chanting "Feed Me More" the ENTIRE crowd joined in. And as for Titus...you can never tell if he's getting booed or if they're doing his bark. I initially thought it was a boo but I couldn't tell.

    I agree that they're spoiled but this is where the storylines start to be created by the fans and their statements.

    The pop for HHH was still pretty good but it wasn't so much for the surprise as it was the fact that his appearance means the end for RR.

    Alright alright that could have been a bark for Titus. They'd owed Titus because he was one of the quickest eliminations ever last year so he came in and they game hime center stage for a minute.

    The Ryback booing and subsequent feed me more chants reminded me (on a microscopic level of course) of the Rock vs Hogan in WM X8. They gave heat to Rocky the entire match and as soon as he went for the People's elbow he was the biggest face in the company again and the crowd went bonkers.

    I hate these Schizophrenic crowds. Make up your mind as to who is a heel or a face! Don't just give in to a chant or a finisher because it's in vogue!

    He was wise not to keep that up forever and the only reason he had to compete was because they simply can't get RR over as a face. Otherwise he'd keep his suit on.

    I know for a fact, the main event will be HHH vs Reigns at Mania.  How can you even question that at this point?  They're not surprising anything and taking any chances for this Mania.  Rock will be in Reign's corner, probably helping Reigns win a #1 contenders match at Fast Lane and will be in his corner at Mania.  It's very very obvious like last last night's outcome.

    Brock is facing Bray

    Not 100% about Taker yet.  Unfortunately could be Jericho, which would be awful.  Should be Owens.  He was amazing last night and is the best heel they have on that roster.

    Rumors are AJ Styles v Owens will be AJ's first feud so I wonder if that will lead to a WM match so quickly for AJ (he's certainly over already) or will Owens get a big match against Taker. I'm just not sure how they could start and end a feud between AJ and KO and quickly turn KO into a feud with Taker.

    I agree with Shango that HHH v Reigns is a sure thing with Authority/Rock in their respective corners.

    However, it's clear that Reigns won't get over as a face so, personally, I say he wins the title at WM, then turns on Rock when and begins a heel run. What else is left for him to do? No chance in hell (no pun intended) that he'll get over as a face defeating Triple H at WM and being the champ again. Not after the reaction last night.

    Also...I'd like to see an Owens v Bubba Ray (as his Bully Ray character) feud. They both are "bigger" guys who bully others and it just seems to work and I think it would be cool, especially after seeing talks that they may split the Dudleys up. I just think the promos could be pretty damn good.

    They can change the Mania main event at a moment's notice. Batista was pretty much guaranteed the title in 2014 at Mania so he could have the belt for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie run. 

    It was such a disaster (like the continuous heat on RR no mater how much the wwe tries to make him a face) that they completely changed the outcome. They could easily do that here and fans would embrace it. I know I would.

    do you think wwe didn t know that public will react on this way?

    so when they did errors in the pass and consider its why does they do same error agains and again so  it makes no senses!

    you know go to see poll for wwe royal rumble notes and you will be estonish to see that general people liked it.

    wwe know this point because old wwe fans are not like recent wwe fan!  people who boohoh are the old fan not new fan believe me
    these new fan cannot know why old fan disagree because they never know realy "old wwe"  that is my point of view
    old fans are starting to be gone with time because they didn t recognise on this company anymore but wwe doesn t care because they built a new potential public 
    public is stupid they go buy tickets go to shop buy pay epr view and after they bohoo even if they know what will happened and things don t change and will not change so??

    remember when HHH lcame and said long time ago, wwe will be change and new revolution, it was just word it never happened! when I see Roman Reins I don t see a Wrestler I see A " ROBOT" bring back personage like manking, taker debut etc I love HEEL wrestler but KO i can t see him!
    bray wayt and dean ambrose are best new "old schooll" wrestlers made by the company but when I see what garbage they did with Damian Sandow, this man is pure old school talent!
    Remember when Vince says about " Drew Mc intyre" he was the "choosen one" he should had stay with his first choice as I was pretty sure he should had been more better than Roman Reins for the new face of wwe! dolph ziggler is a joke I can t se him. wwe cannot make credit of new group they create like ligue of nations or social outcast when you compare with the nexus impact made it is just garbage. nexus bring a big fresh on wwe and rooster. if wwe want credit on Roman Reins they need to put him on mode" out of control" like the night he demolished hhh and he let him leave on a stretcher. it is the only night I liked Reins.

    Giving the title to Roman at WM leads to the same problem at the last two Rumbles...massive heat for a face. 

    HHH would be the face! That would be insane given his character tries to do anything and everything to piss off the fans which basically goes against the WWE's and wrestling's core philosophies.

    There also is a problem with a turn on the Rock. Who does he align himself with as a heel? It can't be Seth. He's already is part of the Authority. Would he be a rogue heel like Austin (which actually made him a face?). No. He's not good enough to pull that off (because he didn't get over as a face without the Shield).

    And if it were HHH/Reigns at WM, why did they eliminate RR third? That's quite a letdown to a WM feud build-up.

    We'll find out tonight.

    If it ends up being HHH/Reigns, they are making a very poor booking decision because you simply can't put the title on RR in the WM Main Event. NO ONE wants him to be the champ. Where are all the smark Roman fans??? There isn't a single one! Why piss off all the paying customers who will be overly vocal about your booking (like you've done in the past)?

    As I was reading what you wrote, I personally think that Reigns as a rouge heel is the way to go. If they want to push him, obviously being a face isn't going to work, so he'll have to do that. You can bring Rollins back as a face (or even a heel because you know he'll get more support than Reigns at this point) or maybe have Ambrose trying to talk sense into him and have Reigns turn on Ambrose. Then you can definitely be assured that you'll have the heat on Reigns.

    Orton is also a rouge heel who does whatever he wants. He was aligned with The Authority but you knew he was unhinged. Reigns just has to go friendless. Turn on Ambrose and The Usos and I think he can become a heel in itself.

    That may have been my favorite Rock promo of all time. He's always free and easy but tonight he just seemed better than ever.

    Ambrose v Reigns v Lesnar at Fast Lane but we all know Reigns wins and the Wyatts screw Lesnar. But it's a good match if it weren't so easy to predict.
