Did anyone else love the fact that the majority of the match was new, young, up and coming talent, guys like Rusev, Reigns, Ambrose, Wyatt, Ziggler, Barrett etc. It was such a cool moment to see that WWE are finally taking steps towards their future, in a few years it's going to be full of current NXT guys, Owens, Zayn, Balor, Neville, Itami I honestly can't wait

Honestly if the final 4 was Reigns,Wyatt , Bryan & Ambrose I'd've been fine. Then Ambrose eliminates Wyatt & Bryan leaving him and Reigns as the final two. At least they're attempting to push someone new, and for all we know Reigns might improve before 'Mania & if Brock brings his best like last night it could a belting match.

The Highlight for me was seeing Bryan,Ziggler,Ambrose and to a lesser degree Wyatt look like total chumps and all of them being eliminated super easy like they were dog crap.Great booking by the WWE and having Show and Kane being the ones to throw out 3/4 of those guy.
Now being serious with that BS out of the way the true and only highly's were the return of Bubba Ray and DDP.Everything else about the Rumble this year was horse crap and book terribly.Even with my main man Reigns winning I didn't get hyped sense the whole match was so poorly book and they made Reigns also look like a chump need help for Dwayne to take out two AARP members when he's suppose to be the one to beat the monster Brock Lesnar but has trouble with those two old farts,the botched pyro and then the supposed rub Dwayne was suppose to give him but in turn really took away from the moment of Reigns winning and made him look like a much lesser star and second banana to Dwayne.

The Highlight of the Rumble was probably Wyatt's performance which has to hopefully lead to something because they wouldn't make him look that strong for no reason

Id of liked to see some NXT Cameos instead of the likes of Titus O'Neil. And I agree in terms of talent, the future is very bright.
My rumble highlight was that Bray lasted 45 minutes

The only thing I saw with the newer talent you speak of was them being unceremoniously thrown over the top rope like they were nobodies simply because all the attention needed to go to Roman Reigns.
The only two guys that looked halfway decent were Wyatt and Rusev, and any momentum either of them built up was entirely negated by the way they were eliminated. They didn't even put up a fight.
The highlight of the Rumble, for me, undoubtedly, was Bubba Ray Dudley. That's saying something.

That's one way to look at it. Another way would be this: The Rumble lacked star-power this year, there was only one guy (maybe 2 if you count Bryan) who had a legit shot at winning the Rumble. The rest was young upcoming talent like the people you mentioned or jobbers.
They should have had Orton returning and Rock entering at Number 30 with Ziggler moving to 26 or 27 (or whatever) instead of Titus.

I think the reason for Dwayne was to keep the crowd under control. If he wouldn't have came out the audience would've booed Reigns out of the building and that would have been horrible.

They still did..... The highlights of the Rumble were Bubba, Bray, DDP, Bray and Boogeymans interaction, and Rusev.

Rock's face. I saw a photo of this with the caption "When your mom makes you introduce your annoying cousin to your friends", best laugh I've had all day.

The only highlight was the return of Bubba Dudley, which will hopefully bring someone new to the roster, perhaps liven up the tag team division.
We got the Kofi not touching the floor moment. We got the one wrestler pumped to get in to last less than 5 seconds. We got the win that no one wanted. We got the returning alumni for a few minutes. We got the announce team informing us every few minutes the length of time one particular wrestler was in the ring.
Can't wait to see all of that yet again next year.
We had Curtis Axel never get eliminated. We had Erick Rowan not qualify for the match, in the Pre-Show give an interview acknowledging he wasn't in the match. Curtis Axel comes out, gets pushed and Rowan enters the match anyway. Why have all that storyline and build up to him not being in the match then? We had Roman Reigns eliminate Kane & Big show, then immediately have the bell ring to signal the end of the match, Michael Cole say that Reigns won, only to a few minutes later, have Rusev return so Reigns could spear him and the bell could ring again. We had, in addition to above, The Rock enter the match while it was still on in an odd time, to interrupt.
Nothing great, last night was a disappointment to a very high degree.
