WWE Royal Rumble 2015- 5 Promising Developments

If you waited months and weeks and days and hours, all cumulatively, for the 30-man Battle Royal, and if you’re a hardcore fan, you have to be a bit jaded at what just happened. Was Rock coming and in a way endorsing Reigns a damage control moment? One has to know that a hardcore audience like Philadelphia will hate a Reigns victory. It might have been a consolation for another year where another predictable superstar won.But there were still moments that one could hope more from. Here are five promising developments from the Royal Rumble.

#5 Nobody compares to Lesnar

Lesnar wasn’t the beast he was at Summerslam but he was still close. He was part of the best match of the PPV. How many part-timers can say that?

Cena was booed. Rollins was cheered and booed. Lesnar was just plain cheered. They came here to see the beast roar and they got plenty of it. He went through the announcer’s table, took multiple briefcase shots, multiple AAs, went through the stairs and the barricade, apparently, most probably fictionally, broke a rib and yet came out looking stronger than ever. Now defying such logic is met with jeers and it’s nothing new for the hardcore audience but when it’s Brock lesnar doing it, you just go with it. 

Nobody compares to that. No matter how much they try to sell Reigns, they might even have Reigns beat the beast, but he won’t compare to The Beast.
