Liked the Usos getting the 1 and 2 spots.

Wonder if Lesnar was supposed to come in at Bron's spot and they had to call an audible once the news had broke. Apparently Slim Jim was the title sponsor but was able to pull out the day prior. Don't know that Breaker was the right guy to eliminate Jimmy Uso. Love Gunther but was already let down with how Jimmy was eliminated and became even more confused when he was the guy to eliminate Jey-- definitely thought they were going to build the Bloodline/Rock with how they'd started with the Usos at #1 & #2 and put so much of the match's focus on them.

Have always been a fan of the Rumble spot they do where one to two factions have a couple of members in at the same time who work together-- usually simple but effective story-telling.

The match is big enough for a comedy spot (which I usually hate), but I didn't like how they basically did that with Pat McAfee so late. Was stupid to see a guy who used to play in the NFL jump in then go right back out. Would have rather had him take some type of safe bump but still make someone look good.

Thought they played Dom well-- tossed Breaker in a chickens--t heel way and got a good rub from being eliminated by Punk.

Was good with Punk and Cody being the final two. Started to wonder if they were going to do a callback to '94 where they eliminated one another simultaneously like Bret and Luger had done; would be a way to work each of them into their planned Wrestlemania programs as well. Would have preferred to see Punk win, but felt like an idiot for thinking they'd go through with it after missing all the "Cody is trying to be the first person to repeat since..." lines that the announcers kept dropping.
