2. Neville defeated Tyler Breeze. Neville won with the Red Arrow in about five minutes…

3. Heath Slater and Curtis Axel defeated The Dudleys. Curtis Axel rolled up Bubba Ray for the pin to win a ten-minute match while D-Von was outside the ring “getting the table.” This wrapped up the Main Event taping…

I just rewatched the Rumble from last year. Man, as soon as its down to Big Show/Kane/Roman the crowd just absolutely loses it. A constant cascade of boos that only gets louder as Roman starts to fight back. Granted, 2016 Roman is no 2015 Roman, but a repeat of last year on Sunday could easily undo all of the moderately decent building they've done with Roman up to now. I don't know how they make Roman look strong without winning the Rumble, but they had better come up with something.

That's easy. Reigns is entering number one. He just needs to be active, and last until the final two against Lesnar. Have Haitch come out of nowhere and cost him the match then. He still looks good even as a loser.

I really want him and Lesnar entering one and two respectively, but I doubt WWE puts Lesnar in there so early.

Because they suck.

What would be the modern equivalent of the LT vs Bam Bam co-headlining a WM match? My initial instinct would be to say JJ Watt since he's such an attention whore, but LT was retired already...maybe Ray Lewis? And Bam Bam was good but he wasn't WM main event material, lets be honest. So maybe Ray Lewis vs Rusev?

I was literally just thinking about this exact same thing not but three hours ago.

It's probably Cam Newton vs Kevin Owens

They could have the lights go out in the middle of the match and when they come back up people would be expecting to see Kane or Taker or Bray Wyatt or something, but instead it's just Rusev stabbed to death in the middle of the ring.

You know what I like about wrestling in Mexico?

They protect the god damn dick kick. You hit someone in the dick, no matter who it is, they fall over and get pinned. They don't use it to set up a finisher they don't use it and then use a chainr, rudo kicks dude in the dick, dude crumples up and the rudo pins him.

Dick kick is the most protected finisher in professional wrestling just because of Mexico
