Sunday, January 29th, 2012, from St. Louis
DANIEL BRYAN vs. MARK HENRY vs. THE BIG SHOW "CAGE MATCH": When they announced this as a cage match I knew that Bryan would win. Why? Because God forbid Bryan actually pin one of these guys. So he won by falling to the floor from the top. It was short and slow and awful. 1/2*
BETH PHOENIX, NATALYA & THE BELLA TWINS vs. EVE, KELLY KELLY, ALICIA FOX & TAMINA: Kharma showed up in the Rumble. So there are watchable women wrestlers...just not in this match. *
KANE vs. JOHN CENA: A double count out means this feud will continue. I don't want to see a re-match? Do you? After the count out, Kane went backstage and dragged Zack Ryder to the ring and gave him the Tombstone Piledriver. It was better than the cage match. That isn't really saying much. *
DREW MCYNTIRE vs. BRODUS CLAY: Clay is an obese wrestler that dances. Yeah. & this was a squash. On a $55 ppv. Really? -No Stars-
CM PUNK vs. DOLPH ZIGGLER: John Laurenitis decided to let another, regular ref call the match. It was slow until the finish that had Punk beating Dolph four times while the ref was hurt outside the ring and John was tending to him. Both the ref and John L. did the final pin and Punk won. It was mediocre. **
THE ROYAL RUMBLE (SHEAMUS): This was more of a comedy show than anything. We had Mick Foley and Socko verse Santino and his Cobra. We had all three announcers enter. The big surprises were Road Dogg and 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan...but Sheamus beating Jericho at the end was shocking. A so-so Rumble. Entertaining in spots but not very memorable. **
