The Women's Royal Rumble stole the show.

Great Rumble. The Women's Rumble stole the show. They brought in everyone short of Sable. Beth Phoenix slamming Nia Jax was cool. Stroman/Lesnar was good, too, but dang did they make Kane look bad. Loved how Slater kept getting beat over and over again on his way to the ring, funny. And Mysterio was a great surprise.

Kinda funny watching a Top 10 for Elimination pod breaking spots and how in the past like 10 years, they have to try to sell that these flimsy plexiglass sheets are like death to them. "BY GOD! THAT SHEET OF PLASTIC THAT COULD BE KNOCKED DOWN BY A LIGHT BREEZE HAS BROKEN HIM IN HALF!" It use to actually break back when Goldberg was last around, so it actually can pretend it's actually something.
I wonder if it was still kinda dangerous to have around and that's why they changed. Hoping for some fun at Elimination Chamber tomorrow, I love gimmick stuff like this, Royal Rumble, and TLC. It just sucks how obvious it is that Roman is gonna win to go on to fight Lesnar. Mostly just wanting to see Braun do something nuts, like flip a pod onto someone lol

Anyone else kinda annoyed by the "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey thing? Like it makes no sense to attach her to Piper other than it seems he was just her favorite wrestler. Sure, the alliteration works, but it's not like she's Curtis Axel who could do a Mr. Perfect throwback being his son, and it was considered a joke gimmick when he was acting like Hulk Hogan. Is it because she doesn't have much going on character wise since she understandably doesn't have much mic/character experience? Oh well...
At least we can expect a mixed team match of Kurt and Ronda vs HHH and Stephanie eventually. Kurt and Ronda should call their team "The Olympians" lol

Her nickname in the UFC was Rowdy Ronda Rousey... so they are just carrying it over.
