    Kilroy did you give up just on Raw or the entire main roster?

    brock vs x for the title again sounds like the most boring shit in the world

    sheamus vs x for the title sounds like the most boring shit in the world and me having to sit through MONTHS of sheamus as champion

    brock vs sheamus for the title is probably a good match but also the most boring thing in the world^2

    I feel like I should be allowed to agree with this more times.

    So you probably don't want Brock to win the Rumble.

    i

    no, god no, hell no

    Brock had his time. He had a good run as the champ and it was fun at the time but to do it again would be fucking madness

    I did like that other Uproxx suggestion.

    Brock vs Big E with New Day in his corner.

    I'm still going to watch ppvs

    the issue is that my free time is at a premium right now and raw no longer feels worth giving up 3 hours for

    The best thing about the Rumble is the surprises. The best surprise is when the winner isn't easily predictable. I feel like if Brock were to enter this one, that immediately goes out the window.

    pretty sure there's been "what are they going to do about next wrestlemania to sell out texas" talk since the day after last wrestlemania and, surprise, we know just as much now as we did then

    for the record, I don't have an issue with the main event scene as it stands. Sheamus vs Reigns should be a good match and hopefully reigns will get the title back. Sheamus is a serviceable transitional champ but I don't want months of sheamus promos

    my main problems with raw are the nasty wet fart that is jack swagger and the way the women's booking appears to be regressing to 5 minute matches with rollup endings

    Nah, his previous face run was much more terrible.

    HHH vs Rock could be the main event

    Austin as referee

    hopefully Vince turns off the PG

    I'm sure they would prefer predictably over the crowd shitting on everything for the third year in a row.

    Sheamus is doing a good job transitioning the belt from Roman Reigns to Roman Reigns.

    I thought Rock was getting surgery or something, and would be out for Mania.

    So looks like Honma has been accused of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend.

    Reportedly his insurance plan on a film he's doing will keep him out next year.

    I feel like predictability was what CAUSED the crowd to shit over everything the last two years, though.

    I don't see how the Florida crowd would be upset with Lesnar winning.

    The fans hated Batista and Roman winning because they believed they didn't deserve it over Bryan. Bryan isn't in the equation anymore, and Brock still has a ton of credibility.

    the fans would have been happy with reigns over batista in 2014

    they would have been happy with literally anyone including rusev over reigns in 2015

    bryan had very little to do with it

    Decent match overshadowed by Evil Michael Cole. Like much of that year.

    So now is probablya good time to mention that I'm breaking my decade long drought of live wrestling attendance. I'll be at Progress 24 this Sunday, which was a super exciting thing right up until they announced Will Ospreay vs Zack Gisbon vs Flash Morgan Webster as the title match.
    What an absolute Weston. This is why I should never leave my house.

    Everyone is different. Everyone is special.
