Braun winning would be such a boring Vince decision, keep it

Yes!!!

Both Rumbles were lacking in surprises tbh, but at least the winners were correct.

I wonder if Intergender will he part of the new era? They have many wrestlers who have done it and it's growing in popularity

Some random things I loved from this PPV:

- The Miz & Shane O Mac winning the titles
- Sasha Banks
- Just Brock Lesnar's presence as always
- The 3 or so "Kofi" moments in the women's RR
- Zelina Vega & Hornswoggle
- Titus O'Neil & Curt Hawkins I absolutely LOVE that they continued off of that botch moment from last year
- The moment where everyone beat up on Nia Jax
- Becky Lynch winning the Women RR (particularly over Charlotte)
- Seth Rollins winning the RR

Plenty more as well. All in all a solid RR I thought Two solid royal rumble matches and pretty good matches all-around.

The women's RR beat the men's one already in just their second year

Men's rumble definitely won this year. Women's felt lacklustre until Becky entered.

Also, the two World title matches were probably the worst matches of the night though (even though I still enjoyed Brock/Balor enough, as I enjoy every Brock match to some extent)

But maybe the SD World title match worst of the night and either Raw World title or SD Women's title match were the second worst. Still thought there were mostly decent matches or better tonight.

Furthermore, I've seen Asuka in a bunch of matches now and I DON'T get the hype. As far as I know she doesn't do much in promos either

Reeeeeeally? I was thinking they're hard to compare because both were good but then I thought about them and the women's has to take it. It had plenty of moments. Like 3 "Kofi" moments between Naomi, Kacey(?), & someone else I can't remember right now. It had some comedy in there (in particular Zelina & Hornswoggle under the ring), it had solid storytelling and eliminations throughout and it had a really awesome final 4 showdown & final 2 matchup. And as said, the Becky entrance was great, better than any surprise entrant in the men's one.

I thought that PPV was really good! Granted, I only watched the Women's Championship matches and both rumbles, lmao.

Asuka vs. Becky took a little bit of time to get into, but the Becky hype was really cool (even though the crowd were 100% handed those mini signs). Obvious outcome, but still a good match nonetheless. Really set things up nicely for the remainder of the card. Becky is just so incredibly suited to her character, and I love Asuka being a champ.

Sasha vs. Ronda was probably my favourite match of the night. Really enjoyed how badass they both were and the constant submission switches (there's probably a better phrase for this but oh well, lmao) were really impressive. For a slight second, I thought Sasha was going to win, but Ronda winning was inevitable. Really glad this match happened because it proved what Ronda is capable of against a really, really, good opponent. Was ready for Sasha to go back and beat Ronda's arse after the handshake, though.

The women's rumble was good. I think the first half was better than the second. I really liked how full the ring become at one point. There were so many ****ing weird moments, though. The whole thing between Alicia and Maria was a choice and Hornswoggle appearing and chasing Zelina was bizarre. Lana limping to the ring was teeth-clenching but it obviously served a purpose. Can't disagree with Becky winning, but would've liked to have seen a better-produced showdown between the two of them. I mean god love them, they must have been exhausted but that final elimination was a tad anti-climatic.

I kind of skimmed through the men's rumble. It seemed objectively good, but I've never really gotten into the men's side of WWE. Nia coming through at the last minute was so unexpected. I was here for it! Gave me Chyna vibes. Seth's a good winner and he's one of my favourite male wrestlers so happy with that outcome.

Oh, and I did see glimpses of Brock vs. Finn. I thought it was good in terms of the narrative because one is so blatantly villainous while the other is the archetypical hero, so it wasn't too bad for a match that just ended up with Brock winning again. Finn's also one of my favourite's, so would've been cool to see him win but hopefully he'll get his chance to hold the title again at a later date.

Really excited for the Women's Tag Titles match at Elimination Chamber now.

I'm thinking:

Bayley and Sasha - RAW
Nia and Tamina - RAW
Riott Squad - RAW
Iiconics - SmackDown!
Mandy and Sonya - SmackDown!
??? - SmackDown!

I'm hesitant with Mandy and Sonya because I'm not sure where creative is going with them, in terms of whether they're trying to establish them as single competitors or not. As for the last pair, maybe Trish and Lita? Probably not, as I can see Bayley and Sasha winning the titles and facing them at Wrestlemania, but don't know who they'll combine from SmackDown! for the last pair?

Bryan vs Rollins

Rousey/Lynch

Would be my main title matches. No idea on the rest of the show yet bar obviously the battle royals.
