GDT: WWE Royal Rumble 2023

[Sheppy]

I’d rather Jeff Hardy

Honestly - two of the best Rumbles in years.

But absolutely terrible booking of them on the same show.

They made such a big deal of Gunther going the distance and setting records. Only to have the same thing happen TWICE two matches later.

@Jussi ”ACKSHOOULLY it wasn’t the same since GUNTHER didn’t win.”

 

[DaaaaB's]

I am not going to complain about a unique finish to a Rumble. It was good.

We can have Asuka/Rhea in a full match down the line.

I agree. Would've been fine with either one winning but Rhea makes sense and the ending was good.

Even with the lack of English, she has the most charisma in the women's division.

Her entrance was awesome tonight.

I definitely agree. Being able to do promos in English could push her to the next level but she's obviously a star regardless. On the other hand, some wrestlers who speak English give awful promos that do more harm than good.

This is the worst music

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I like boring bland rock music sometimes, but good lord, this is meh.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Wow this is so terrible, did they find this guy on To catch a Predator?

 

[Transplanted Caper]

Calling him dollar store Kid Rock is an insult. At least Kid Rock had a couple of hits under his belt

I think he got arrested at the airport for that once...

I got free WWe content when I ordered Gamecenter with Sportsnet so I decided to watch both the Rumbles tonight. I personally think the WWe makes a mistake putting both Rumbles on the same event, they would be better off splitting them up. The whole #1 entrant is in the final 2 sort of loses it's luster when you see it 2 times in the same night. I also am not a fan of the rest spot were everybody is in their corner out of it so 2 people can fight int he middle of the ring, 1 or 2 might work in a 60 minute rumble but it seems they employed it way to much in both rumbles.

Overall both were entertaining though although somewhat predictable even for somebody who's main link to wrestling for the past decade is listening to Jim Cornette.

On a side note did Kofi Kingston get injured? Looks like he was going to do one of his spots and screwed up

 

[GKJ]

I am drunk but this is a good show with good rumble finishes.

 

[Blitzkrug]

And by "I still ain't sold out" he means his album on store shelves, obviously

 

[MD thaivuN]

all i see is bored dudes in the audience listening to this shit

 

[Emperoreddy]

Does that band not have a bassist?

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I'd rather listen to Nickleback than this.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Hey WWE, we don't need fake fireworks.

I was thinking if those were real it might scare the hell out of the cars driving by and cause an accident

 

[Sheppy]

Send this guy to the f***ing moon. f***.

Remember when they used to do heavy metal for WWE PPV?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Got a better concert right here while we wait for them to fix the ring

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

At least Pat is having fun

I feel like Pat would find a way to have a good time locked in a phone booth full of unpaid traffic tickets and termites

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I was thinking if those were real it might scare the hell out of the cars driving by and cause an accident

Well of course. Still don't need them tho. Lol. They were fine just doing it around the Wrestlemania sign.

Send this guy to the f***ing moon. f***.

Remember when they used to do heavy metal for WWE PPV?

They had slipknot do the NXT theme for a long time as well.

 

[Jussi]

Does that band not have a bassist?

Does anyone really need a bassist?

*obligatory bassist joke*

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

They should have paid the big bucks and gotten Edge and Christian to do kazoo covers of current WWE folks instead of that random guy

 

[Unholy Diver]

What if Sami swerves us all and causes KO to lose, going legit full heel bloodline?

 

[Emperoreddy]

I was thinking if those were real it might scare the hell out of the cars driving by and cause an accident

Honestly yeah, that seems like it would be dangerous to do it there.
