2016 Royal Rumble Introspective: Predictable, Yet Awesome

FROM THE VERY START, I told my Wrestling Rumors colleagues that any time Roman Reigns was mentioned, he received an outpouring of boos; so much so, that it caught me off guard. I have no clue why that happened, but I knew from the very start that it was going to be a hot crowd and an awesome atmosphere.

Pre-Show:

Now, considering the fact that the winners of this match earned two “Rumble” spots, Swagger and Henry, but were in the “Rumble” match for a total of 35 seconds, truly making this opening match a time waster. HOWEVER, Damien Sandow received one of the top pops of the night, when he returned as the “Intellectual Savior of the Masses.” It was AWESOME to hear the reaction he got from the crowd.
