The Rock vs. CM Punk for the WWE Championship is next.....I would almost bet that Rock wins....Why would they let Punk win and go on to lose it to the Rock at Elimination Chamber? That's not setting up Wrestlemania, What would be setting up Wrestlemania is having Rock win and going on to defeat John Cena at Elimination Chamber.....If it's any other way than that then WWE is just stupid

Boring PPV....the only good part was Rock finally shutting up Punk..

[Mr. Pike Central]

It was a great show, albeit fairly predictable.

Man, Chris Jericho got the loudest pop of the night.

I'm curious now, if he's signed a mini deal to stick around until Wrestlemania.

[Stardust]

^ Ditto, completely predictable! But I thought the event was booked incredible even though we knew what was coming with each match! I loved the pops for Y2J! It was refreshing to see both he and Dolph stick in the match for so long. I loved the way they allowed Jericho and Orton to clear the ring before they were eliminated. I felt it kept them strong, even though they were eliminated!

The Rock/Punk outcome presented NO DEVIATIONS from the original plans back in the summer. Everyone knew Rock would go over on Punk. What was a surprise was the amount of support Punk received throughout the match! He was the clear-cut fan favorite. Yes, the crowd went nuts when Rock won, but that was because the fans knew they just witnessed history. But Punk came out of that match even stronger than he was before!

I will miss Punk at the top. He has finally made "being a champion" relevant again!

[Strikeout King]

Seen on twitter that a custom title design for The Rock has been done but didn't know if it would be used or not.

[LWC]

I thought the PPV was done well. Punk had a great run as champion and lost the title in a way that doesn't cause his star to fade as it did with Miz. (Boy, did he ever fall, lol)

The Rumble was good but I was expecting Taker. The Godfather's entrance and exit was Soooo funny.

Jericho did not show a lot of ring rust and I too enjoyed him. Orton is yet again the most strange situation for any WWE wrestler. He is a 9-time champ but he is little more than a high Mid-card guy. Is the WWE admitting that they pushed him way too hard and way too fast? Will he be a champ again? Will he ever sniff a PPV main event again?

[Strikeout King]

Orton wants to be a heel badly and WWE is fixing to let him be what he wants

[Pulp Fiction]

IMO.... The Royal Rumble is just a shadow of what it used to be. After McMahon won it in 1999, it just hasn't been the same.

1990, 1991 and 1992 are the best Royal Rumble's in history.

[Mr. Pike Central]

I'll go on record and say that last night's Royal Rumble after just one viewing would already crack my Top 10 Royal Rumble matches of all-time.
