I guess for whatever reason I'm not that grumpy about this ridiculously awful show (or awful RR match itself, at least). I can't tell if it's because it was so ****ing stupid that I think it's funny or that the Pittsburgh crowd openly crapping all over it made me feel better.

But obviously all of the gripes being presented ITT are on point.

Pure speculation but I'm guessing having to cut weight for his attempt at mma may have something to do with this. If it's any consolation for anyone, Batista in mma was truly terrible, Vince certainly doesn't have to worry about losing him to the UFC any time soon.

I think this will be the one where everyone thinks Daniel Bryan HAS to break through and finally get his due from Vince. Only to be thwarted and leaving everyone crushed.

Dunno if anyone mentioned it, but it just dawned on me as I was trying to sleep.

It's Bryan and Cena, with Hogan, vs Wyatt family, with Bray, at Wrestlemania to close the show, isn't it. Such a huge massive waste.

And they had to know the fans would react to it sort of like they did. I think they underestimated how much the fans would **** on the rest of the match though, and they definitely thought Batista was going to get a face reaction which was lol.

Going with Daniel Bryan and Orton somehow doing some weird finish that results in a 3 way at Wrestlemania with Bryan going over.

I still have hope here for WWE. Bryan's latest tweets just have to be a work and I think WM still ends with Bryan having the title.

It actually makes a weird sort of sense as Bryan can pin Tista and keep Orton really strong for the post-mania Bryan/Orton feud.

My eternally hopeful card:

Bryan/Orton/Tista
Cena/Wyatt
Bork or Reigns/Taker
Punk/HHH, possibly with others like Kane or Bork included
AJ/random ******ed woman that hasnt left wwe yet
Rhodes/Dust

I'm also gonna go with this actually being pretty amazing booking if I'm right. People are madder than they have ever been and it all culminates with their best angle in years culminating at Wrestlemania.

WWE missed yet another golden opportunity. They should have had BNB come out at number 30 and say "I got some bad news." It would have given him so much heat with the crowd expecting D-Bry to come out.

Guy searching for Batista **** is awesome!

Oh man nothing beats the ending though, the smashing of the lamp, the direct turn of the head to the camera and full sprint, only to get stuck in the door and let out a yelp of desperation. I'm in tears

I'm out once again. Nice to know you guys once again. I'll be back at next year's Royal Rumble.

how about Batista/Brock if they have Brock win at EC?

LOLOLOL that's great!

sigh @ this event. the burial of daniel bryan. not just not being in the rumble. but losing to wyatt and having wyatt move on to cena so presumably cena can help bryan take down the wyatt's or perhaps worse so wyatt can move higher up the card while bryan stays where he is or goes down. total burial and bull****.

Went to the PPV. What a massive ****ing debacle.

Glad the crowd was good so I can consider myself to be a success...unlike the dumbass WWE creative.

Going to be sending letters/emails asking for a refund because it was such trash.

I thought the card was really good.

The best route they could possibly go with all of this is to have Bryan win EC, challenge Batista and basically blow off the Bryan is held down angle by having him go over the corporate choice movie star, Batista.

Of course, that may be giving them too much credit. But if they go with Orton/Batista as the main at Mania ... I dunno. That seems pretty dangerous after tonight. Crowd could **** all over it.
