WWE is officially on the road to WrestleMania XXXI, but they have got off to a very rocky start.
The 2015 Royal Rumble event has to go down as one of the worst pay per views of recent times. It was so formulaic with not much in the way of entertainment value or shock factor that a normal Rumble is famous for.
There were a grand total of four tag team matches which offered very little while the Rumble itself has to go down as the worst of all time.
The only saving grace of the show was the triple threat match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship where Brock Lesnar won via pin fall over an impressive Seth Rollins and a solid John Cena. The match was worthy of stealing any show but saved this one from total catastrophe.
Going into the 30 man Rumble match itself, rumours were rife that WWE had deliberately leaked its plans to have Roman Reigns win and go on to the main event of WrestleMania. This made sense after the last two Rumbles.
Two years ago, John Cena was the obvious winner after a baron championship-less spell while WWE would rather you forget last year's debacle with Batista.
However, the powers that be at WWE obviously haven't learnt from their mistakes as the same predictability that blighted the last two Rumbles reared its ugly head in Philly too.
If you're interested in how the Rumble went down, here's how Roman Reigns booked his place in the main event at Levi's Stadium.
