Royal Rumble 2016: 20 Best Internet Reactions To Triple H's Victory

Talk about your split opinions...

It's funny how one event can be simultaneously shocking and painfully inevitable. The shocks came in the fact that after four years of disappointment, the company pulled an extremely entertaining event out of one of the most difficult contexts in recent memory. The roster is still decimated by key injuries, the build to WrestleMania has required some serious rethinking and Raw ratings have hit the skids in the mid-term. Triple H was crowned the new champion - albeit probably temporarily - Sami Zayn returned to the ring, Chris Jericho lasted a ridiculously long time and AJ Styles made his first appearance to a wild pop by the crowd. And this was after a solid undercard that including a great Divas match, an exceptional Last Man Standing IC Title match and two more entertaining matches. It's like it's the old days again. Let's run through the biggest and best reactions on the social media following Triple H's belt-winning victory.
