Men's Rumble is the first match. That answers that. No Rock. Not a chance. No way they would not have saved that til the end of the show
 
Triple H: Okay Book we're gonna put you in the Rumble for nostalgia purposes. Will let you get a couple moves of offense then do your spinarone then Gunther will eliminate you.

Booker T: Okay boss.
LMBAO. yo dude knows which side of the bread is buttered. He’s a company man. I ain’t mad at him. Let him make that money. For 3 min of work I bet his paycheck is more than we’d make in a 5 years.
 
I think announcing all the competitors ahead of time really took a little steam out of the Rumble. They should always keep that a surprise. Also Cody being #30 was predictable. I did like the drama between Cody and Gunther at the end there. So it looks like Cody got what he wanted. He left AEW to become the WWE Universal Champion and it looks like it's going to happen. He's gonna be the one to dethrone Roman.

They were in Texas so Booker probably had family in the crowd. They let him come out to his home town pop, do a spinarone, and get eliminated by a current star. No hate. At least that was the only legend/joke entrant.

I like what they did with Gunther. He looked very strong even with losing at the end. Starting off and number 1 and being eliminated last, I expect him to be challenging for the top title by the end of this year, perhaps against Cody.
 
Cool visuals but the over sponsored Mountain Dew shit is taking me out of this match.
 
And crap like this is why I've been over Bray Wyatt for some time now. At least this is better than the last year of The Fiend crap. Can't say that he isn't smart cause this plays into all the fantasies of the wannabe Hollywood writers that the WWE employs. So creative will never not have anything for him to do no matter how corny or B movie ish it may be
 
If Bray Wyatt is adamant about having these gimmick matches and supernatural elements, then he minus whale only do cinematic matches moving forward. The presentation just comes off as corny during a live arena show.

This stuff worked in Lucha Underground. It’s stupid here.
