Who is winning the Rumble?

Batista 32 51.61%
 
Daniel Bryan 8 12.90%
 
CM Punk 13 20.97%
 
The Field (anyone else) 8 12.90%
 
Total:61

I've never seen a company so blatantly and stubbornly ignore their own fans and fight something so organic.

I think what bothers me is that Batista was really boring in there. Never mind that he hasn't done anything in four years, he didn't do anything in the Rumble that made people want him to win. Even Sheamus put on a much better show. Reigns and Rollins were awesome.

Speaking of predictable, I never expected Punk or Bryan to win. They don't want either of those two going against Cena. As long as Cena is at the top, they'll keep those guys down the list. They know Cena would get booed out of the building. Heck, Reigns would probably have been the crowd favorite against Cena or Orton.

The one thing I have to keep reminding myself is that the WWE now isn't about what the audience wants, it's about what Vince wants. You'd think those two things would be the same but it's become obvious that they are not.



Christ........ that rumble PPV was just simply god awful.

Think i'm starting to go off wrestling again. (went off it like '93 to '98, then '04 to '10)

Oh well, at least i have Steve Austin's and Chris Jericho's HONEST podcasts to look forward to 3 times a week.

Well, I think they get what they deserve when the crowd shit on Orton vs. Batista.

It's been that way for years.

Eh, I see what you're saying, but what about "Summer of Punk." 

Although that's all I can think of xD

Its 2014 and were seeing Orton/Cena still.

Does @WWE actually hate their own audience? I've never been so disgusted with a PPV.

lol now it's Orton/Batista. (again) it's like it's 2003-5



i feel bad for Rey he did nothing wrong and got booed even when he got eliminated i hate todays fans imo



The worst thing is, is that people will continue to watch. Batista drew huge numbers when he returned. Should be interesting if it holds, hope it flops to be honest with you.
