Raw tomorrow is going to be really interesting.

everyone that isn't bryan or punk will get booed

Or Reigns.  

Right now, here's my list of wrestlers that NEED to be in better positions and could be the next crop of talent for the next generation that WWE is underutilizing in lieu of raining more money on Old guys like The Rock and Batista: 

Daniel Bryan
CM Punk
Damian Sandow
Dolph Ziggler
Roman Reigns
Seth Rollins
Dean Ambrose
Big E Langston
Cody Rhodes
Antonio Cesaro
Ryback (I'd be okay with this, even if he is terrible, he's new and young!)
Jack Swagger (he was at the top once and is one talented guy)
Kofi Kingston (Workhorse, always a yearly treat at RR, has the skill)

That's 12 people definitely more deserving than Batista, with the plausible exception of Ryback.  Oh, and the single most deserving (Bryan) wasn't even in the rumble.  Those are the 12 guys I think Are 'on the way up', with the possible exception of Swagger and Kofi for being around for years and never quiiiite making it to the main event.  Those might go into Category 3. if that was the case, then it'd be a case of 10 potential winners, 10 entertainers, and 10 disqualified entrants who stand no chance of winning.  (and yet one who should have been disqualified won)

On the flipside, here are the people that should NOT win a Royal Rumble from this match:

Batista (Won in 2005, is 45 years old)
Kane (Well past his prime, had his 11 eliminations)
Goldust (Like Kane, past his prime)
Kevin Nash (OMG, thought he was dead, LOL)
The Great Khali (DUUHHH)
El Torito (Duh, again)
Sheamus (Won in 2012, though he's on the fence)
JBL (PAst his prime)
Alberto Del Rio (2011 winner, has never been main event material)
Rey Mysterio (2006 winner, getting old and busted)

That's 10 guys who should not win, but only 4 joke entries (NAsh, Khali, El Torio, and JBL).  The others are good for the rumble, but not as winners. 

Then there are the guys who just aren't there anymore, or not yet, like: 

Alexander Rusev (Developmental, good but not great)
Jimmy + Jey Uso (Great team, I doubt they'd be much seperate)
Luke HArper + Eric Rowan (Again, a team.  Not individuals)
R Truth (Doomed to the midcard)
The Miz (Doomed to the midcard)
Fandago (just not that good, didn't deserve his WM win last year)

I just genuinely don't get it.  I really, really don't.  10 guys all with tonnes of skill, some of which genuinely on the cusp of super megastardom, many others with genuine longterm potential....and nothing.  Just...nothing.  

So pissed.  I really shouldn't be.
