Rousey came out looking like a high school freshmen wearing her high school senior boyfriends leather jacket...that crap was huge on her I believe that was Pipers leather jacket she had on. if thats true, she doesnt deserve to wear Pipers jacket

Calling it now, Rousey will be the first Woman to win the Men's WWE Title.

Trish Stratus looked good out there tonight and so did Beth Phoenix, Lita, Michelle McCool, Kelly Kelly and Torrie. The old guard definitely still have it in spades but at the same time if they brought any of the old guard back then that would be great long term for WWE but would they pull the trigger on it? I doubt it but at the same time I think the WWE going forward is actually looking as good as it has been in a while.

I'd watch Reigns squash her, yes. No way in hell should they even consider putting the championship on her.

Going to summarize my Rumble recap with this...it's been a long time...a VERY long time...since I felt a childhood-like level of excitement and happiness over something wrestling related (Punk winning at MITB 2011 being the closest)...tonight, I finally got that feeling back after the Men's Royal Rumble match.

Rousey matches up best with Charlotte, and I hope that’s the match they do.
Lesnar/Reigns Charlotte/Rousey Styles/Nakamura
That is one hell of a top 3 for Wrestlemania right out of the gate. This could be really special.

Just hope that the Royal Rumble PPV next year for 2019 is better than this year's and the international feel for this year with the Japanese winners (Nakamura/Asuka) just goes to show us that WWE can really surprise us. I mean I don't think that there have ever been Japanese winners ever in WWE history when it comes to Royal Rumble Match winners and the only ones who have won it who come from international roots are Edge (Canada), Bret Hart (Canada), Del Rio (Mexico), Mysterio (Mexico), Sheamus (Ireland), Yokozuna (Samoa) and now add Asuka/Nakamura to that list of international winners.

Not a bad show. Wish there were a few more surprises in the men’s Rumble. Hated that Nakamura won. The placement of the Men’s Rumble bothered me, but after seeing Rhonda it made sense.

Solid show, was entertained throughout. Rousey is good for business.
Nobody hates wrestling more than wrestling fans.

One of the best parts of tonight was how great everybody who competed tonight came out looking.
The only person who took a big L tonight was Ziggler, shame because I love his work.
Styles winning a handicap clean is such a big rub, on the same night Naka has a G.O.A.T candidate Rumble performance. That match is made in heaven.
Braun might just get in the middle of Reigns and Brock imo, he is the most over of the three.
I liked the Smackdown tag a lot, short but I really liked the stories. Table and Benjamin lost in a sweep and it doesn't really feel like it. I hope the Smackdown tag titles can stay this hot.
I love this roster, just wish they were always booked this well.

This could be really special. Not bad but I would go with, Brock/Reigns Styles/Nakamura Cena/Taker Triple H & Stephanie/Angle & Rousey Charlotte/Askua As your top matches for Mania this year.Save Charlotte/Rousey for SummerSlam and build to Askua/Rousey at WM 35.Not the biggest fan of Ronda Rousey but she's a massive cross over star in sports and I get why the WWE signed her and will put the rocket on her and push her as the face or co face of the company going forward.

Yes and after Ronda showing up after the Women's Rumble the way she did it makes so much sense why they would save her until the end of the show. Think about it if they had brought her back for the Women's Rumble and the match itself was placed in the middle of the show the crowd would have been hot but then Ronda alone would have overshadowed the whole men's Royal Rumble Match especially if it had gone on last. Furthermore, I respect WWE's handling of how they booked this PPV.

I think some of you are against Rousey because of how it will effect the parity of the division, I get it.
She's worth it though, her ceiling as a WWE performer is very high. I know the MMA thing gets old, here's to hoping we see some mat game.
Big draw for WWE with some great dream matches on the horizon.
