what are the chances someone else comes out and tries to take the 17th spot?

Cody and Gunther is such an odd final two.

Assuming Cody wins this, having the face win at #30 over the heel that went wire-to-wire is just an odd choice. Like having JYD win the Wrestling Classic with a bye in the semifinals.

Gunther wins this. Sami helps KO win the gold. Gunther/KO headlines Mania.

This may be the longest final two we've had.

Alright. Result is fine. Might have been a bottom-five Rumble. Good night for Gunther though.

I think Cody just tied Gunther for most eliminations at the end.

Nah. There have been a lot of serious dogshit Rumbles.

Just the result not being stupid puts it above bottom five.

Conspiracy theory: this is Vince's first night back in charge of booking.

That was pretty boring.

Not even any surprise entrants other than Booker.

Vince was ready to job out Gunther back in July, no way he books him to be final 2 of a Rumble

I'm only just now catching up to what I saw on social media earlier in the week, where it said, "The 'WrestleMania Goes Hollywood' sign has arrived in San Antonio!" I was very confused.

I liked LA Knight in NWA quite a bit when he was Eli Drake. I have not liked this LA Knight character at all from what I've seen, but I'm glad he's getting a nice push in the big show.

While the final result was fine (if extremely predictable) that was pretty underwhelming.

Also - it's quite sad that Ricochet is such an awesome athlete and objectively one of the very best performers on the roster currently and yet he's totally boring and pointless.

I don't hate this theme, but Bray's earlier theme was better.

Fear not; they've let Becky Lynch keep her jobber theme. They just replaced the good ones.

I have 0 interest in this.

Good for mountain dew though.
