This event was pretty much what I expected. In fact my predictions were 100% on apart from Bray Wyatt winning. The real story of the night became the crowd because they were merciless in supporting Daniel Bryan and hating everything else. Personally, I wasn't too distraught at Batista winning. I'm willing to give the WWE the benefit of the doubt bigger things may be in store for Daniel Bryan, notably some speculation linking him with an Undertaker match at Wrestlemania 30. The Rumble could have all been a big angle, Vince McMahon is said to be a huge Bryan fan so I would guess a twist could be in store yet. If anything, Roman Reigns should have won. In 2005 Vince McMahon gave a similar unproven big man the Rumble win, and that guy was Batista. In 2014 Batista has won again, this time denying a new star the chance to be made. The event as a whole was enjoyable. The opener was a match of the year contender even at this early stage of 2014. There wasn't a whole lot wrong with the title match and the Lesnar angle was effective. The Rumble wasn't the best ever, nowhere near, but it was still an enjoyable hour. Overall Score: 85%Match Of The Night: Bryant Vs Wyatt Angle Of The Night: Lesnar destroys Big Show Three Stars Of The Show:1. Daniel Bryan He was the key worker in the best wrestling match and dominated the rest of the show in sheer level of being over. 2. Bray Wyatt It was a hell of a match and with the Cena angle, Bray became a major player on this night. 3.Roman Reigns A record 12 eliminations, this guy is a star. Watch out for him.
