Also low key kinda love bringing R-Truth into this - I accept it’s stupid but I’m willing to suspend my disbelief for now

I know ppl have panned it but I had way too much fun with the Cena-Orton match #wwe #backlash #wrestleculture
The glaring problem with John Cena’s heel persona is that it’s 6/7 years too late. Fans unanimously cheered him every time he returned. OTTH, I do really like this and the whole ‘you said I ruined wrestling? Well now I will’ shtick works well, just wish it was a few years earlier #RAW #WWE
I kinda love the idea of John Cena taking the ‘you ruined wrestling’ trope and actually running with it as part of his heel persona #wwe #raw #wrestleculture
I’m watching this behind my fingers, this is beyond brutal now
Omg Zayn-Owens is brutal!! #wrestlesky #wwe #EliminationChamber
Good win for Stratus & Stratton - not much more to say. Fun, entertaining time #wwe #wrestlesky #EliminationChamber
There isn’t enough superlatives, I absolutely loved that!! What a start!!
Really happy Bianca won but Liv Morgan was the true MVP of that match. Incredible wrestling all round #EliminationChamber #wwe #wrestlesky
Wow. Wow. Wow. That women’s Chamber match utterly ruled - 10/10 no notes #EliminationChamber #wwe #wrestlesky
Aaaaand there goes my pick 😭🤣
Omg what a whip on Morgan!!!
What an Oblivion from Morgan on Bayley!!!! #wwe #wrestlesky #EliminationChamber
Right, my prediction for the women’s #EliminationChamber.
Liv Morgan seems like the obvious choice due to her history with Ripley (who I think will beat Iyo) but I’m gonna go risky and say Alexa Bliss. She’s got lots of hype behind her and I could see #wwe cashing in on that hype at Wrestlemania
Ok Jade Cargill coming back to beat the living hell out of Naomi was not on my bingo card!! #wwe #EliminationChamber #wrestlesky
Alright here we go!! #ElimbationChamber watch along, let’s get started!! #wwe #wrestlesky
Are we getting a hint of ‘heel’ Cody Rhodes? #wwe #smackdown #wrestlesky
Overall, though it could be harmful short term, I think this could pay dividends long term and inject a real amount of unpredictability into future programmes.
A great Rumble in all. I’ll be back with a detailed review of all the matches soon. YEET! #royalrumble #wrestlesky #wwe
I also love the boldness of the booking. Sure it has every possibility to come back to bite them, but you can’t criticise the Fed for predictable booking for once.
Also, if you’re gonna eliminate three huge favourites in Reigns, Punk & Rollins (the latter less so a favourite), that’s exactly how you do it. Add the afters between them on top and suddenly the story developing is far more interesting than if one of them won
Let’s not kid ourselves - Jey is mega over and deserves the push he’s getting. His promo on Raw was clearly illustrated that and tbh I couldn’t help but feel so happy that he won
THAT BEING SAID! I do kinda love this 😂 it was a genuine shock which I’m not sure I’ve had for quite a few Rumbles now. It’s set a precedent that underdogs/ outsiders legitimately could go all the way and win it over heavy favourites
Also, I know he’s mega mega hot but his singles ability is really not great and if the have him beat Gunther, I think it’s gonna be struggle to make it look believable. He’s clearly nowhere near Gunther’s calibre as a wrestler
Now I think it’s obvious Jey is probs not gonna headline and will end up coming out first on one of the nights. But even still, of all the storylines WWE have going, this one seems one of the least interesting
Admittedly at first, I thought it was a wild choice to have Jey Uso win. Out of the entire roster, is he really the best to headline Wrestlemania? Does Jey vs Gunther really draw the most interest?
Ok! I’ve had all week to think about this!! I think I’m finally ready to pass judgment on the men’s #royalrumble
This won’t be a detailed review of the match - I’ll save that for a later post
#wrestlesky #wwe
Well that was quite a ride! I’m gonna sleep on it and share my thoughts in the morning.
The gist is that the men’s Rumble was very entertaining and I really enjoyed it. I’ll gather my thoughts on the ending as I’m still unsure whether I liked it or not.
Watch this space! YEET! #wrestlesky
I think I’m gonna need to take a minute to gather my thoughts 😂
Well, it turns out I couldn’t be more wrong if I tried 😂😂
