WWE Royal Rumble: 26th January 2014 - Superstar ratings
The WWE somewhat wiped off their bad run in pay-per-view business by pulling off a great show at the Royal Rumble. After giving a match of the year contender in the undercard, the company then went on to showcase a marquee 30-man battle royal which had all the shares of twists and turns.
From openers to main events, all got a share of the pay-per-view time, and while some stood out with the least time given, other went on to be buried at the expense of others.
However, more storylines seems to be in blooming in the background which is good news for everyone because the superstars fighting over some meaning would be better than random booking.
So the near future clearly looks bright but for now let’s take a look at how the big stars made their impact at Royal Rumble with the superstar ratings.
Big Show – 2
We knew that Big Show was going to be buried but we never expected it to be this worse. Show was destroyed by Lesnar without any mercy and even a man who doesn’t know anything about him might have felt sorry for him for the beating he took.
The scene of Lesnar bending the chair on Big Show’s back served the purpose of making Lesnar look monstrous but Show suffered a big blow that will need a lot of time to get back from.
Brock Lesnar- 5
The match between Big Show and Brock Lesnar was hyped like it was the main event between Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson. But we had nothing to see in the match other than a monster beating the hell out of a giant.
Lesnar sure looked dangerous but the lack of fight back and nature of his attack took the sting of everything. He looked more like a coward who attacked from the back than someone who would destroy fair and square.
