[Courtjester]

[Courtjester]

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Didn't bother to watch anything before the Rumble. I guess if they're going to debut AJ cold, may as well be in Orlando and early in the Rumble. Not a fan of it personally as it limits what he does best....and just doesn't come off as a star with his stature amongst giants. He's not going to be get a big reaction (and I don't think what he got tonight was big) to crowds around the country. Hope they have some vignettes to give audience a reason to care and some background.

I'll change my tune if he wins or winds up in a storyline when this Rumble ends that puts him in top storyline.

 

[SlaX]

TNA claims they had an agreement with AJ Styles and the Bullet Club?

See TNA fans! All 11 of you. We tried. We care. Love us!

 

[Courtjester]

AJ reminds me of Benoit.

Axel gone by AJ

#6 is Jericho

 

[Brady Marino]

Just like Sting, I never thought I'd see AJ Styles in a WWE ring. Ever.

 

[Courtjester]

Jericho, RR and AJ in the ring,

#7 is Kane

 

[Courtjester]

#8 is Golddust

 

[SlaX]

Oh and I like the commentary. I was busy watching the Panthers secure a Super Bowl spot.

 

[Courtjester]

Really showing off AJ here by Vince.

Here we go number 9--Ryback

 

[Courtjester]

All still in

#10 is New Day---Kofi

 

[Courtjester]

God I am 16 in on a 20 pack..

#11 is Titus---all still in

 

[Tiger Fan]

lmao at R Truth

 

[Courtjester]

Gold dust gone....

@12 R truth in---awesome!!! he brought a ladder and thought the belt was above the ring and got eliminated

Kofi got thrown over and landed on Big E and saved

#13 is Harper

 

[Courtjester]

LON beating up RR outside the ring.

#14 is Cody

 

[KiddLattimer]

Such a letdown when the countdown goes off and some loser like Stardust comes in

 

[Courtjester]

Vince supporting the LON after they put RR thru thru the announcer table

Kofi gone,

#15 is Big Show

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Here's one of the terrible parts of their writing......if Reigns is unconscious, you throw him back into the ring to be eliminated. Not let him lay on ringside for 20 minutes to recover.

 

[Courtjester]

Titus gone....

Ryback gone

 

[KiddLattimer]

Here's one of the terrible parts of their writing......if Reigns is unconscious, you throw him back into the ring to be eliminated. Not let him lay on ringside for 20 minutes to recover.

Yep, its stupid and if he does win it just makes it cheap

 

[Courtjester]

#16 is Neville

#17 is Stroman

Kane gone

 

[Courtjester]

The whole RR is on a stretcher outside but not eliminated

Big Show gone

#18 Owens comes limping down

 

[RBM]

Owens gets the rub

 

[Courtjester]

AJ gone by Owens

 

[RBM]

Sasha pop earlier was the biggest pop I've ever heard for a diva.

 

[Courtjester]

#19---Ambrose---

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Well I was gonna say it's great Owens was selling his injuries from earlier......now in the ring he's doing none of the such. I don't get the logic debuting AJ and eliminating him anything but at the end but whatever. At least someone that could get some heat from it (Owens) eliminated him (and not someone like Show or Kane)

 

[RBM]

Sami!!!!!!

 

[Courtjester]

All in---#20 is Sami Zayn

 

[KiddLattimer]

All in---#20 is Sami Zayn

Woo hoo!! Now give us Balor!

 

[Courtjester]

Owens gone!!

#21 is Rowan

 

[Bogart]

AJ vs KO vs Zayn will be the highlight of 2016.

 

[Courtjester]

Neville gone===Stardust gone..

WWE pushing the Wyatt angle

 

[Courtjester]

#22 is Mark Henry

 

[Courtjester]

Henry gone by the Wyatts.

ditto for Zahn

 

[Courtjester]

#23---BROCK!!!

 

[Courtjester]

Cleaning house

 

[Courtjester]

Rowan gone!!

 

[Tiger Fan]

I'm nowhere near the fan that you guys are, but I pay a decent amount of attention to WWE and that's about it. I wouldn't have known about AJ Styles, Zayn or Balor if it wasn't for this thread. That has to mean something "in the big picture".

There has to be a better way to introduce these guys than in the rumble and a forgotten elimination

 

[Courtjester]

#24 is Swagger

And he is gone 15 seconds later

 

[Courtjester]

#25 is Miz---ughhhh

 

[Courtjester]

Brock just killing people

Harper gone

#26---ADR---

 

[Courtjester]

Brock makes me look skinny,

Stroman gone by Brock'

#27 is Bray

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

I'll rewatch later but didn't the announcers just say Miz 'had to be in the ring' by the next entrant?!?! (And he's not)

To TigerFan, yes it's called the lost art of vignettes leading up their debut. I agree whole heartedly that this match isn't where you debut AJ Styles (You, like all casual fans, have no clue who AJ Styles is)

 

[Courtjester]

Wyatt family back in the ring all attacking Brock-

Brock is taken out !!!
