They really did a great job with him. I'm so happy. It's like things suddenly started to click. And give it three weeks and no one will care again because they had to sacrifice the entire roster just to get him to get a reaction for once in his life. He was getting reactions the last few weeks due to actually having a personality suddenly

The first 2/3 of this Royal Rumble was a pointless, satirical waste.
Then Drew eliminated Brock, then also eliminated Roman, so as far as I’m concerned, in the immortal words of Jack Nicholson’s Joker, heeeeeeeeee...is my number onnnnnnnnnnneeeeeee...guuuuuuuuuuuuuyyyyyyyyyyy.

Was Morrison the quickest elimination? I think they said 9 seconds.

Just checking the result. This works, I think. They needed somebody new to carry the main event - and neither Cain nor Fury have the full-timer cred to make the match vs. Lesnar work.

Got to watch the match, and uh...wow, that Rumble sucked.
Ok, not entirely: the story they told with Brock/Drew made sense, and even paying off Brock kicking Ricochet in the crotch by letting Ricochet get a bit of revenge here was actual booking; said it a couple weeks ago, but touches like that are where you can see Heyman having some actual influence on the booking.
But good Lord, the entire art and style of a Rumble match is just dead ("New guy's in, everybody sleep in the corner then feed him a spot or two!"), and this one just made it worse by making most of the roster look like absolute goofs.
So some good intentions in the middle there, but yikes.

Drew has wrestled basically around the planet and gotten really over pretty much everywhere he's gone.
Except when The WWE constantly try to force him into the Bland Angry Heel gimmick.

I was happy that Edge was able to compete the way he did, it wasn't just a brief nostalgia appearance, he took plenty of bumps.
Also, Charlotte clearly only won because Billie Kay wasn't in the match.

SO WHAT THE f*** WAS THE POINT OF THE LESNAR SHIT IF HE JUST WINS THE MATCH. This company is so goddamn stupid. Because it got McIntyre the biggest pop of his career? They're trying to establish him as a face and, although there were smoke and mirrors involved, they absolutely got what they wanted tonight.

some stats and trivia
1) Brock ties the elimination record all time for rumbles. 2) Elias draws number 2 a year after drawing number 1. The only person who has ever done that was Krispen Wah 3) Elias joins the likes of Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, Dolph Ziggler, Ric Flair, Rey Mysterio, Ted Dibiase, Triple H, Bret Hart, CM Punk, Davey Boy Smith THe Miz, Krispen Wah and Rusev (Daniel Bryan counts if we count GRR) to start a rumble match more than once. 4) Drew won at number 16. First time ever someone won from that number and 3rd straight year someone has one from numbers 10-20 5) Drew becomes the thrid rumble winner after Sheamus and Shinskue Nakamura to be born outside of North America 6) Elias entered at number 2 and was the first one out. The streak of the person being thrown out first drawing numbers 1,2,3, or 5 continues 7) Roman Reigns was the runner up for the fourth time. Big Show, John Cena, and Triple H are behind him with 2 times each. 8) In every Royal Rumble, Roman Reigns has been in he has never been eliminated prior to being in the final 3. Batista just misses being there with him in this stat but he "only" made it to the final 4 back in 2003.

I’m very happy Drew won. He looked awesome and letting him be the one to eliminate Brock was great.
