part of me kept thinking (hoping) that Joe would come out and attack him since he was taking his sweet time to get to the ring

 

Yeah they both live here

 

Anyone else reading on Reddit all the trouble they had last night with seating? For someone who has been to Philly for a PPV, is there any chance something like that happens there? I would hate to spend all this money and RR next year and look forward to it for so long to have the night completely ruined by my seat getting fucked.

 

I think it had more to do with the venue it was at. I'd be super bummed if that happened too.

 

I can't see them having issues like that at a venue they're at all the time.

 

What were the issues?

 

Enormous seating screw up last night at the Dome • /r/SquaredCircle

 

Ok just saw. I did hear people having problems with their tickets being scanned. Didn't know about this and definitely didn't witness anything of the sort or anyone complaining. Guess I got lucky

 

I mean he wasn't there yet, you had to know he would be...

 

Drew scroll up a bit next time bud

 

Why couldn't the rumble had more of this? Four talented guys, two from each brand, all coming across looking strong. Was such a great moment, but unfortunately was pretty much the only moment like it in the match.

 

I've never been happier for anything Baron related. Gotta admit, I'm into Braun and Baron more after last night.

 

Loved that moment. Braun was already looking strong as hell, but the moment really stood out for Sami and Baron.

 

If we're keeping kayfabe logic, Braun should be breaking into Smackdown and murdering Baron at some point. If he's gonna kill Roman for giving him a spear once...and murders Ellsworth for costing him at SS...he should be coming for Barons head for what he did.

 

It also just occurred to me that its now twice in big PPVs that Bray/Randy have gone over Roman. Not sure anyone would have predicted that going into 2016

 

Yup. Sami and Tye working on Braun was also really fun. The booking of the rumble right up to when Braun got eliminated was pretty much perfect.

But then they just sent out midcarder after midcarder without any eliminations for a while until the ring was super crowded, threw out the tag teams, and then let the part timers go to town cleaning everything up.

 

Eh. I think the Rumble was booked perfectly fine up until Enzo.

Just think, maybe Reigns at 27, and then someone like Joe at 30...we're talking one of the GOAT Rumbles.

 

Eh. I don't like how many eliminations Goldberg/Taker/Lesnar got. Middle just felt like a dragged a bit without a whole lot happening. Would've rather they let some more midcarders get a elimination.

But yeah, say Kane comes out at 27 and Joe comes out at 30, then would've been a very good rumble.

 

My username being listed wrong the entire time as 27 for the Rumble drawing insured me getting an awful entrant.

 

Don't know why Braun wouldn't come out to attack Reigns again. Should have been angry enough to want to screw Reigns a second time. Crowd would have ate it up too.

 

I thought it was odd they didn't have Goldberg/Taker/Lesnar all in there at the same time. They worked it perfect having Lesnar come in and wreck people and then Goldberg enter to confront Lesnar with bodies laying around them. Someone else in here commented on that set up and I agree, it was great. I was hoping they'd scrap for a min and then the gong hit.

 

Braun is literally mad at everyone lol which is why his interference was so weird to me. I mean, yeah it makes sense but at the same time it kinda doesn't. It made a great match feel like an ending to an episode of RAW.

 

The build to his eventual signing is going to be insane

 

I think I'm gonna check out of WWE for awhile.

will just watch some NJPW and bigger ROH/PWG shows for a bit.

The booking becomes completely bonked in the build to mania every year.
