 There was a setup! Jimmy Ross lives to see another day, my boy! That was a setup! That whole thing was a setup! I love it, man! There was a setup the entire time! 10 out of 10, my boy. 10 out of 10. Oh! It was a swerve! My God, bro. He was playing bro the entire time! Son of a fucking bitch, man! You said son of a... Why they shocked? Are you serious? You hurt! You guys are awesome. Stay clutching. Stay rogue. Appreciate it. It's over. So he just let... They let him just easily come in. That's bullshit, bro. Y'all just couldn't let Brock have a goddamn ill. Bro, I tell you, bro. The chat not liking that, bro. I was hoping they would... The thing is, they didn't need him to win the rumble to have that match. Y'all seen the clips. How excited we were on stream when Brock Lesnar lost the WWE Championship because of Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman turning on him and screwing him out of the title. We were elated. Dub was happy. It was a good time. Drew Billy was in a good mood. It was great. And then later on that night in the Men's Royal Rumble entrance number 30 you hear Brock Lesnar's music and then you can see the disappointment. But maybe there was a little bit of hope. Maybe, just maybe he won't win the match. But once again, we're talking about Vince and WWE and his love for Brock Lesnar and wanting to have Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns have their match at this year's WrestleMania. So it was kind of plain to see once he came out there at number 30 he was going to win the match and you saw our disappointment when he actually won the Men's Royal Rumble match. I'm going to get into all that. This is going to be a good one. It is actually 3.36 in the morning. Just came from Dub's house. I got to bring this video to you guys. Because I got to really get my thoughts out before I go to bed. Let's get right into this video. What's good y'all? It's your boy Ross. Back at it again with another video. So got to get my thoughts and opinions on the 2022 Royal Rumble this year. This was a okay Royal Rumble. I will say this. I think a lot of us can agree the women's Royal Rumble match was a lot better than the men's for sure. I'm going to go down through the list of the matches what I thought and what the potential outcomes may be leading up to Elimination Chamber and leading up to WrestleMania this year. But first and foremost before I get into it I just want to thank everyone that was a part of our stream we had I think the most viewers we had at one point was 4k. 4,000 of y'all joined the stream was going crazy in the chat. We had a great time and we're looking forward to doing a lot of stream reactions of the Elimination Chamber later next month. So be on the lookout for that. That's going to be fun. But yeah, if you missed those streams man make sure you guys definitely check it out check them out. Try to be there for them if you can. The stream is still up so you can definitely go watch some of the highlights. Someone has graciously time stamped some of our reactions to some of the stuff that happened at the pay-per-view. So definitely go check it out on the inter clutch ENT main page. But first things first let's start with the first match. I'm going to try to go in order. First match being the Universal Championship between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. I will say I was not expecting this match to start it off. You kind of knew something was going to happen since they were starting off the match. But nevertheless it was in my opinion the best match of the night and for multiple reasons. Can we first acknowledge the fact the challenger usually comes out to the ring first and then the champion. But this time Roman came out first and Seth came out to the shield music with the shield gear through the crowd and Roman was pissed and I loved it only because what Seth has been trying to do he's been trying to get into Roman's head. He's basically like pretty much since I was you know since I screwed you over when we were in the shield since I stabbed you in the back I pretty much made you the man you are today and I like that. The mind games I thought that was dope that was very entertaining and I was looking forward to how this match was going to play out and I want to say for the majority of the match Seth was always ahead of Roman mentally knew what he was going to do he had some good strong spots but Seth always stayed a step ahead and if you guys watch the stream I called it Seth was trapped in the guillotine hold. I called this spot Seth trying to edge his way to the ropes to break the hold and I said if I'm Roman I do not break the hold. I put I'll keep that hold on even after the five count and that's exactly what he did. Roman made it roll the best way we love when he goes roll he went mega roll and he was choking Seth out. Bill had already rung. Roman got this qualified champion's advantage he doesn't lose the title he knows that it's a heal like thing to do Roman is a heal so what he did made sense in his character he choked him out he sent him to the gulag. He was not letting go of that hold. Not only did he send him to the gulags he did something that I thought was pretty cool it's a callback to when Seth hit him in the back with the steel chair when he turned on the shield Roman got the chair went out went outside the ring got the chair went back and hit him in the back while Seth was getting up and then as he was you know laid in some good chair shots he's about to leave he's like no no no I'm not done with you yet and beat the living crap out of him to the point where the chair was deformed and warped then walked up the ramp right this is what I do this is I took care of business I love it that was great I know some of y'all already oh he still he couldn't beat Seth it's part of a storyline that probably they're going with and it just it makes sense Roman is a heal y'all he's going to cheat to win sometimes and this is one of those situations where Seth can say you couldn't beat me so they can continue the few which I actually hope they do so this was that started off the show great I love that some of y'all may not like it some of y'all want to set the win but it's not Seth is not beating Roman especially not this rogue Roman he went mega rogue I love it that was great that was a highlight for me the best match of the night I enjoyed it I enjoyed it man so that's my opinions on that and of course they're probably going to continue the few at some point but I'm going to get into my theories on that towards the end of this video so I want to say the next match was the women's royal rumble and it was quite enjoyable to see some of the people we haven't seen in a while like Michelle McCool what I really thought Mickey James being the impact women's champion or what not her being there while having the championship on her that was cool you don't really see Vince McMahon allowing other champions into his company so I thought that was cool you know they're kind of taking a page out of AEW here because AEW does the same thing so to see that I thought that was dope to see Mickey James out there of course you saw a lot of jobbers and people free agents and stuff but once Rhonda's music hit I knew it was over I made a video a couple of days ago the rumors of Rhonda coming back and I said if Rhonda comes back she's winning and I was hoping maybe Bianca Belair could pull out the win I know a lot of you guys want to live to win but once I heard Rhonda's music it was raps it was done it didn't matter who was in that ring Rhonda was winning obviously Rhonda did end up winning the women's royal rumble and it looks like most likely she's not going to face Charlotte because Charlotte that's not the money match we all know what the money match is Rhonda, Becky, no Charlotte this time just them two have it should originally been and I think that's going to be entertaining I believe she's going to be on Monday Night Raw so she's probably going to have something to say that's going to probably bring some views in I know some people are like damn that's kind of messed up for all the women that are there but we know that's the money match for WrestleMania Rhonda, Becky that's the money match that's the match that people are going to really want to see I want to see it just one on one just off the promos alone they're back and forth I think it's going to be very entertaining I want to see how the characters are going to be if they're going to keep Becky Lynch's heel I think most likely they will and I can see maybe Rhonda being a face in this situation I don't know because of course some of us fans remember the shit she was talking on social media about wrestling fans so I didn't forget about that it will be interesting to see where they take their characters but we know that's the money match that's a main event match depending on how they book it if it's trash whatever but it just depends on how they book it from now to WrestleMania next match after that what's the piss break match Becky Lynch vs. Dewdrop I didn't care about that match if you cared about that match cool for you sorry you can say that's disrespectful I mean we was watching it we was also looking at the chat and engaging with the chat getting food, getting drinks that's the piss break match do anything other than watch that match I didn't care I didn't even know it was a match on a card until I checked like a few days ago I didn't care we knew Becky was winning Dewdrop was not winning the Raw Women's Championship didn't care about that match it was whatever probably shouldn't have even been on the card would have made the show a little bit shorter that match should have not been on the card but the next match Brock vs. Bobby Lashley of course if you watched the stream he didn't say nothing until the match was over and it was just me and Brandon holding it down on commentary on the live stream I will say this for those who were so excited and I was one of those people that was potentially excited first time ever dream match promo package they had for it built it up like something epic that match was not epic until Roman came out I'm gonna just keep it a stat there was a cool moment a couple cool moments I wanna say Brock suplex and Bobby and then Bobby returning a suplex to Brock I thought that was cool after that it kinda it kinda hit the usual rock beats it just once the referee got knocked down I knew there was gonna be some interference I was thinking it was gonna be the Usos but when Roman came out there Spear brought to oblivion and then Paul Heyman gave Roman the title the WWE championship to hit Brock Lesnar over the head with it it was like beautiful it was all part of their plan to screw over Brock Lesnar including Paul Heyman and a lot of you guys have said it you know we felt it was gonna happen this was all kind of a big plan and Paul was just playing rock which made sense there was little plants and seeds here and there about it so I enjoyed that that made the match and then of course Bobby Lashley getting the pin 1, 2, 3 granted Bobby really didn't look that strong against Brock I'm gonna just keep it a stack he didn't look that strong against Brock at all I think that was a wasted opportunity they really didn't go all out like they should have for that match but either way it was just to set up another another situation so once again Bobby Lashley is the WWE champion and it'll be interesting to see who he faces at this year's WrestleMania but yeah I'm okay with that decision Brock was not supposed to win the championship anyway at WWE day 1 he wasn't even supposed to be the champ they just had to pull an audible well they didn't even have to pull that particular audible that's neither here nor there but it works out they're not doing the unification of the titles and you know you kind of know what happened at the end that was the highlight of that match Roman going extra rogue again taking care of business taking matters into his own hands it was all part of the plan and Paul Heyman was in on it so it's gonna be interesting to see what happens on Monday night and Friday nice SmackDown so they do have some intrigue coming out of this pay-per-view then after that match was Miz versus Edge in Beth Phoenix I didn't really too much care about this match was it enjoyable yes it was this match was actually somewhat enjoyable it had some cool spots it was cool to see the double spear on Miz to see Beth and Edge hit Beth Phoenix finishing move together on both opponents I thought that was pretty cool it was some cool moments but let this few be done Edge is already beating Miz twice let's get Edge into another meaningful feud I'm done no more of that so that was it was serviceable but after coming off that high of seeing Roman screw over Brock it was kind of hard to follow that in my opinion but it was what it was it wasn't bad but it's nothing that you will go back to this pay-per-view to watch be honest with you so and then we get to the fans which was it was hella lackluster it was some cool moments bad bunny coming out there doing some nice wrestling moves once again for someone that's not a wrestler he shows up and impress he shows out and impress every time Johnny Knoxville that was a cool little moment Shane being in there that was kind of thrown together it was a shock to see it was kind of cool but at the same time it was a waste of a spot and I believe Shane eliminated Kevin Owens if I'm not mistaken I was like yo what the fuck is Shane doing out here you coulda gave that spot to anybody else AJ Styles coming in at number one hoping he was going to be the iron man of this match did not happen Kevin Owens had the crowd was behind him too he did not end up winning it Drew McIntyre making his return I didn't think he was going to make his return so soon but to see him there he got a nice reaction ultimately it didn't work out once Brock Lesnar's music hit at number 30 it was done though and I was hoping maybe just maybe they could pull a swerve what would have been great is the last two people were in the ring Brock Drew they have history Drew eliminated Brock Lesnar in the 2020 Royal Rumble he eliminated Brock Lesnar and then ended up winning that same Royal Rumble to face him at WrestleMania and obviously the pandemic happened wasn't in front of a crowd trying to suck to recreate that moment was cool and I was hoping if they do it they could just be a dope swerve maybe potentially give Drew his moment but once again Vince loved him some Brock and Roman Reigns as his main event so once you really think about who's in the ring you kind of knew what was going to happen there obviously Brock Lesnar wins the Royal Rumble and you know who he's going to face it's kind of obvious he's going to end up probably facing Roman Reigns at this year WrestleMania and I made a comment earlier in this video Seth is not done yet I personally would love and I think this would be great if Seth got inserted into that match and made it a triple threat match yes you can say we've already seen Roman main event WrestleMania in a triple threat match and it was great but this would be even better only because Seth has history with Roman Brock has history with Seth Roman has history with both of them if you guys remember at WrestleMania 31 Seth cashed in his money in the bank briefcase to win the WWE championship at that WrestleMania he stole the championship from them pretty much and it comes full circle another WrestleMania they main event all three guys in that match sign me up I don't want to see Roman vs Brock again there's only so many times we can see that and I think the better story to tell Seth has a point you can never beat me I've already proved I've beaten Brock before I've beaten both of you guys before actual in fact I've beaten Brock at WrestleMania too and you haven't done Roman so I think that would be cool that would be a great story to tell I don't know just that triple threat match sign me up I don't know how to get to that I know the elimination chamber is coming up next so maybe Seth can insert himself because I believe whoever wins the elimination chamber they get to face the champion I believe so that's how the stipulation should be so correct me if I'm wrong if Seth gets an elimination chamber and wins you know he's going for Roman if they set it up that way I'm all for it that's cool sign me up I think that would be a better main event and I think we all as fans would like it because the possibilities now it increases who do we have win I still think probably Roman will probably end up winning but still it would be a fresh match up that I think the fans would love the story is there it's there so but overall this pay-per-view was okay at best it was okay and that's probably a it shouldn't be okay for a royal rumble it was just like it was cool it was what it was it had some high moments and had some very low moments the men's a royal rumble was definitely one of those lower moments and do drop in Becky Lynch that was a kind of a low moment in my personal opinion and also the fact that UFC individuals have pretty much taken over WWE the former UFC champion and Ron Derrause wins the royal rumble former UFC champion the Brock Lesnar wins the men's royal rumble UFC WWE that's what happened at this pay-per-view but comment down below are you guys okay with how these matches ended up are you guys looking forward to what's going to happen on Monday night and this Friday night coming up also are you guys intrigued in the
