 What's good y'all it's your boy Ross back again with another video so yes my voice does sound horse because uh you know I kind of got a little bit excited from tonight's live stream reactions of checking out the 2024 Royal Rumble pay-per-view or PLE whatever you want to call so call it so bear with me my voice is you know kind of gone but you know it happens you know it was a good time if I lost my voice shout out to everybody that was a part of the live stream reactions you guys showed up on youtube and twitch we appreciate y'all we had a great time tonight this was a fun fun show for me I enjoyed the Royal Rumble the hype for it was really intense now I normally do with my thoughts and opinions um I like to go through each match and stuff like that but I want to kind of switch it up like I did last um for uh last time for the um for the um I think it was Survivor Series I kind of want to switch it up because I don't want the video to be too long I really just want to talk about the most important things that happen on the show and we're gonna start it off right away because I know when everyone's here to talk about Cody Rhodes being the guy to win back-to-back Royal Rumbles now I did not see that happening I honestly thought it was gonna be go there but I was very surprised that they actually gave Cody the win here and we're gonna talk about some of the stuff that happened in the men's Royal Rumble match um um in a few but I want to make the mention of Cody and CM Punk being the last two once Gupta got eliminated it was Cody and CM Punk and they have been I guess you can say setting this up with the uh Monday Night Raw how that that fantastic promo they had they having their back and forth Cody hit the uh the crossroads CM Punk hit the GTS they're going back and forth it's a real tense situation you don't know who's gonna win and then CM Punk hits Cody with the pedigree and he says something to the commentary team he's like um and I actually wrote it down exactly what he said CM Punk hits Cody with the pedigree then on the ring it says can you believe that shit like he was talking to commentary then you can hear a lot on the camera say can you believe I hit that shit out of all moves can you believe me hitting the pedigree then I just want he thinks he has it so CM Punk he tells uh he's like he's staring at the hard cam as he's about to pretty much toss over uh Cody Rose he said I didn't wait 10 years to lose to Dusty's kid and once he said that I was like that's very heelish like that's also Robert Reigns talking trash during the match heel like maneuver I was not expecting that but I like it because once he said that that's when I knew I don't think he's gonna win now I think because he got arrogant because he got a little he you know he started feeling himself I think he's gonna lose and lo and behold he ended up losing Cody reversed it and tossed him over in the top rope which I thought was so poetic that he was talking on that trash and he's the one that lost and it goes back to the promo you have with Cody can we be friends afterwards now you can Cody can ask that same question are we still friends afterwards because CM Punk felt really confident and I like that was a little bit of heelish I like the shades of heel there like I appreciate that so it's gonna be very interesting to see what happens going forward I can definitely see him winning the elimination chamber facing Seth Rollins and I feel like whoever faced Seth Rollins they would need to be a heel because we know Seth Rollins has a legitimate injury so whoever beats him Seth will always have that because of his injury if you have CM Punk be a little bit more roguish a little bit more heelish I think you can work with that but overall I was very surprised that was so surprising I did not think Cody was going to be the one to finish to win the Royal Rumble again back to back and of course he points at the side of the pyro and then you have Roman and Seth sitting in the press box seats like it all the way up at the top and he looks right at Roman we all knew it wasn't even going he wasn't even going to look at Seth he looked right at Roman Roman gets the title from Paul Heyman he's holding it up and he looks right at him he's like you already know what's up and I do believe he will finish this story that I would be so surprised if he doesn't only because there's no way you give this guy back to back Royal Rumble wins and he does not complete the story and I do think he will finish the story with somewhat of assist from the Rock I do think the Rock will be someone that tries to play a little bit of defense when we know Solo and Jimmy are going to probably get involved in the match at WrestleMania this year so he will be that catalyst to jumpstart the Roman and Rockview going into WrestleMania 41 so but we'll see how things play out but I enjoyed it I picked go through the win it but I was very surprised that Cody won it we also got to talk about the MVP of the men's Royal Rumble match I gotta go ahead and give that to to Braun Breaker Braun Breaker showed up and showed out tonight bro Braun Breaker in and in at number 20 and started packing people up with the speed and intensity bro and I love that the crowd was doing the you know like a dog he showed out tonight and I thought that was fantastic MVP of the men's Royal Rumble he eliminated Jimmy Uso he eliminated Finn Balor he even stands up to Goonther and give Goonther a very vicious spear and he's doing this as soon as he gets into the match um Braun hit a beautiful midair spear to Ivar like there was so much going on at the time the camera almost missed it um and then there was a situation with Pat McAfee getting involved in the match I do think that was a wasted spot I could have given that maybe to a trick Williams or somebody else I love Pat McAfee but it was a waste of time because Braun Breaker and Olmos was in the ring and Pat McAfee just eliminated himself because he didn't want to get in the ring it was a waste of time I love Pat but it was a waste of time um it was cool he was great on commentary when his music hit at the beginning of the show that was awesome I just feel like he wasted a spot there and then Braun Breaker eliminates Olmos by himself I thought that was great and then Dominic eliminating Braun people booing and this was so funny JD Madonna he's he is his character in WWE is just to get destroyed he runs out to the ring I'm like all right cool he gonna he gonna do his thing for a little bit maybe help our Dom before he even got in the ring Braun Breaker who's already eliminated folded him in half on the outside killed him next person that comes in was Art Truth he sees JD Madonna dying on the outside he picks him up throws him in the ring only for JD to get eliminated I thought that was hilarious thought that was truly hilarious now the number 30 spot you gotta talk about that as well I know a lot of people say it was gonna be MJF if you thought it was MJF I don't know what y'all thought I don't know what how your brain processed that but no it was not gonna be MJF MJF was not gonna be involved in the Royal Rumble they still have a story that they're trying to tell with him and Adam Cole in AEW it doesn't make sense for him to debut he will be in WWE at a later time he has some stuff he still has to finish in AEW and it will be stupid for Tony Khan to let go of their biggest homegrown talent so for those who thought MJF what were you thinking Sammy Zayn being 30 I'm all for it some of y'all are saying oh no that Sammy Zayn was a waste of a 30 spot no he wasn't and that's disrespectful to Sammy because some of you same people were sitting up there talking about Sammy should have probably won should be the one to the Roman last year so stop it fickle anywho Sammy being 30 I was all for what what didn't work is I thought Sammy would have been the one to eliminate Drew I would have loved if Sammy was one of the final four but he didn't see him punk eliminated Drew in fact Drew eliminated Sammy now I'm sure they're gonna continue that story but I think it would have been even better if Sammy could came back after getting taken out by Drew and eliminate Drew you can build a match off that they can still do it but I think it would have been better anyway it it would have made the him being at the number 30 spot feel a little bit more important because he was the number 30 spot only to be in there for a little bit and then to get eliminated by Drew now is my only issue with that also we got to talk about Andrade coming back to WWE Andrade was number four in the men's world rumble got a great reaction I love that seeing Andrade back in WWE's great things gonna be very interesting to see what brand he's gonna be on but I can see him being on Smackdown again gonna be very interesting to see what they do with him especially his interaction with Santos Escobar that's gonna be cool I'm looking forward to their interaction and his also his interaction with some of the LWO members so it was cool to see Andrade back in WWE I was hoping they were gonna do a little bit more with Jimmy and Jay since Jay came in at number one Jimmy came in at number two and they had their interaction obviously Jimmy being uh pretty much a joke always trying to dapp up people to you know jump on on on Jay and even though they got eliminated separately Jimmy got eliminated first I really did think that Jimmy was gonna come back and screw out Jay like screw him out in the Royal Rumble but that didn't happen which is crazy I really thought Jimmy was gonna be the reason why Jay ended up losing in getting eliminated but that didn't happen so maybe they're saving that for another moment also like the stuff they did with Karrion Kross and Bobby Lashley Bobby in and in at the match at number 11 and Bobby Lashley ended up eliminating Karrion Kross but that's when AOP had already came out and then Karrion Kross ended up getting Bobby Lashley eliminated they started fighting that's when the street profits come in and everybody starts brawling I love that I love that I love even just Ludwig Kaiser just walking down the ramp as he sees everybody brawling up the ramp trying not to get involved I also like the fact that uh Kofi got into the mix and he went straight for Ludwig Kaiser that was good the story that they've been been telling with that and uh I want to say I think and when we check my notes oh yeah Kofi did eliminate uh Ludwig Kaiser which was very very satisfying satisfying he eliminated uh Ludwig Kaiser and then Gunther came out right after that after he got eliminated and he's looking at him like what happened to you bro how did you get eliminated you're you're disappointed I love that and obviously uh Kofi and um Gunther is supposed to have a match for the Intercontinental Championship on Monday Night Raw so we'll see how things play out with that so since we're talking about the men's royal rumble we gotta talk about the women's and I enjoy the women's royal rumble match yeah there were some low moments in the crowd you know was kind of sitting on some of the entrance that came in but the story that they were telling here is what was happening with um with um damage control I want to say yeah what was happening with them you had Natalie come Natalia come out at number one Naomi making her return that was awesome at number two crowd was showing her so much love then Bailey came out at number three and Asuka showed up at number seven which kind of confused Bailey for a little bit she looked confused then Kyrie Sane showed up at number 11 and it was one of those things where they were trying to have a game plan but it it didn't ultimately work and they both end up getting eliminated the Kabuki Warriors uh roughly at the same time uh shout out to R-Truth for being a gym throughout the show he showed up in the women's royal rumble match only to be eliminated by Nia Jax and then he showed up in the men's royal rumble match and he thought it was a tag team match like in R-Truth it's a national uh treasure but when things really started to pick up and we and I called it before it happened Nia Jax was pretty much destroyed everybody as I expected but then Jay comes in Jay Cargill makes her debut at number 28 and boy they have made Jay Cargill feel like a mega star they have made her feel important when she came out crowd chanted holy shit she looked good out there she felt like she belonged and bruh this was fantastic she picks up Nia Jax with ease and she single-handedly eliminated Nia Jax that's why they saved Nia Jax for that spot for Jay Cargill and it's gonna be very interesting to see where they go with that I can see maybe Jade and and Nia that being their uh being Jade's first few that was very very entertaining live Morgan returns from jail at number 30 I was okay with it it didn't really bother me I I didn't feel like she was gonna win anyway um but it was cool to see Liv back um and Jade and Bianca had this great standoff they were you know manhandling some other women and then they looked at each other and the crowd got excited I got excited Doug got excited everyone in the chat got excited and then they ended up getting attacked separately they didn't even put hands on each other that was perfect they didn't have to touch each other that was fantastic I love that I'm just the thought of them having to match together I can't wait cannot wait um jade ends up getting a live uh jade ends up eliminating Becky and Naomi relatively quickly which I thought was very interesting too and then Bailey Jade and Liv end up being the last three women and Bailey was able to eliminate both uh Jade and um and Liv Morgan which I picked her to win and she was in the match for one hour and three minutes and it cuts the eo in the back watching and she wasn't too happy about it because all the women in damage control have gold I do think they're gonna say she needs to face real but there's gonna be a situation where she doesn't and it's it's gonna be a situation where maybe she may be here overhears them talking trash about Bailey or whatever and she says you know what I'm done or maybe they turn on her and then she announces that she's gonna face eo something like that I'm really interested in that Bailey eo eo I'm all for it because it's gonna turn Bailey into a baby face again so I'm all for that I'm the right person one and that one congrats to Bailey um the fatal four away match was my least favorite match of the show even though there was some good stuff I love the the spot of everybody jumping Roman Reigns at the beginning of the match it was cool this you know it's to me I felt I felt like the match you know we relatively seen on SmackDown except without Roman being involved it was still enjoyable but of course solo got involved this was it was a a really nice false finish let me see if I have it in my notes um I don't even think I took it in my notes there was a a false finish spot um where it looked like Roman was potentially about to lose okay I think it was Randy had hit the RKO on everyone he hit the RKO on AJ hit the RKO on LA night and then he hit a RKO it was a spear combination Roman ran in for the spear and he timed it perfectly he hit the RKO on Roman and Roman's up it's he's out it's over one two solo solo pulls him away I was like uh bruh and and that was a good false finish there wasn't good false finishes in this match um obviously solo was gonna get involved no dq even if it was no dq he was gonna get involved and towards the end I felt like the ending was kind of uh anti climactic um it was a situation where AJ Styles ended up getting hung up on the top rope he was going for the phenomenal forearm and I think Roman ended up pushing uh LA Knight into the to the rope where he got hung up and then he ended up uh I want to say he ended up spearing AJ Styles in the process for the one two three it was it was very anti climactic I was expecting a better finish but it just it fell flat me personally it fell flat I wasn't I wasn't really a um a big fan of it mainly because once again we we've kind of seen this with somebody's gonna get involved whether it's no dq or dq we know someone's gonna get involved and it's just it was we knew we knew it was one of those type of things it was still fun and enjoyable for what it was but it was my least favorite match of the night and then finally the United States Championship match between Kevin Owens and Logan Paul I really enjoyed this KO was beating the living snot out of Logan Paul like Logan was bleeding his chest was red he's beating the crap out of him and credit to Logan he was still putting in some good work he was looks great out there it's crazy how good he is in the ring if only he wasn't scamming his subscribers in cryptocurrency not so I don't know but outside of the scamming apart he was he looked great out there and I called it Logan's gonna try to cheat in order to retain and once again this was that same situation when his homies was going to try to interfere the ref saw it then that's when um I want to say Austin Theory and uh Grayson Waller coming to the mix and Austin Theory slides Logan Paul to brass snucks Kevin Owens sees that he gets the brass snucks he hits Logan Paul with the brass snucks and he's out it's over ref one two and he sees low uh KO with the brass snucks and he's like wait you hit him with the brass snucks and he calls for a disqualification I like that finish I like that finish because it's not like it was with Ray where he was going to use the brass snucks and the ref wasn't going to see it the ref saw it this time but this time Kevin Owens had it I like that I like that finish that was very different and of course Kevin Owens being Kevin Owens as you know Logan Paul is getting his hands ready he's like nah we not doing this proceeds to beat the living crap out of Logan Paul throws him to the steel steps and then throws him through the table crowd goes crazy I loved it Logan retains as I expected but this was still a fun match Logan is still showing why he is very good in a wrestling ring surprisingly and I do think at some point Logan and and uh what's his name uh LA Knight will cross pass once again and we may have a LA Knight versus Logan Paul at WrestleMania which I think a lot of us will want to see and I think that's when he'll lose at WrestleMania so we will see we may get another Kevin Owens and Logan Paul rematch at Elimination Chamber we'll see but overall I really enjoyed that match and overall I enjoyed um this pay-per-view this was fun this was very entertaining um if I had to rate this I'm just gonna win in 10 I'm gonna most likely give this a solid eight I gave this a solid eight um a my initial review on the uh inter clutch page for a lot of reaction give us a solid eight I have fun with it I know some people are not happy with Cody winning again hey you know that's that's your choice but me personally I enjoyed it the probably the match that really didn't live up to the hype and you know kind of let me down was the fatal four way it was okay in my opinion but um outside of that the women's royal rumble definitely delivered I like what they did with the men's royal rumble could have I felt like some of the spots were potentially wasted but I did like what they were doing with some of the newer talent especially brawn breaker I'm looking forward to what they do with him on the main roster and I'm okay with Cody winning twice because guess what I do believe now for sure I do believe they're gonna finally have him finish the story and uh we're we're gonna see something hopefully something special something memorable so we'll see how things play out but comment down below let me know what was your favorite match from the uh from this year's royal rumble what was your least favorite match if you have one what you rate the show on the scale of one to ten what you guys are looking forward to the most going into Monday Night Raw and um this WrestleMania season but I appreciate all of the support you guys showing on channel roads on the 50k I'm still here on speedy you to the rest of the champion world appreciate y'all kicking me see y'all next one peace
