Screw the Reigns Hate, What About Fat Slow & Old Bald Kane

There is just so much being said about Reigns winning the Rumble and putting all the blame on him for their anger but I feel that some of that is misplaced. I was more angry about two old wrestlers who had no business being featured so prominently and being part of the final four. Must we put the "authority" bullshit into everysingle angle on every show?

Fat Slow & Old Bald Kane should be jobbing to new talent to put them over, not taking all of the fan favorites out of the Rumble. It's a disgrace! If they continue to keep putting them over new talent so they can make the authority look strong then we can all look forward to 10 more years of the Cena, Big Show, Kane & HHH with Stephanie Show. They have got really good at ruining anyone who starts to get over and it's getting old.

Also here's a thought, if Reigns had taken Bryan out he would have had even more backlash and hate. But since it was Wyatt, it's okay. Think about it, Wyatt is the guy that kidnapped Bryan and although Bryan won some matches against Harper & Rowan he never did win a singles match against Wyatt. I'm not saying we should hate Wyatt for eliminating Bryan but let's be honest, if it had been Reigns we would be seeing hate threads about that too.

People really shouldn't be so surprised Reigns won, we all saw that writing on the wall months ago. The issue here is much bigger than Reigns and he seems to be the scapegoat right now as the boiling pot of everything wrong in the WWE comes to a boil.

That ending was garbage. If anything they should have had a final four of Rusev, Bryan, Wyatt and Reigns. Rusev eliminates Bryan to huge boos from the crowd and soon after Reigns tosses him out. Wyatt and Reigns go back and forth for a while and he tries for Sister Abigail, Roman gets out of it, Superman Punch and tosses him out too. In this scenario, at least, you get heat on a heel that deserves it (Rusev) and help take some heat off of Roman while making him stronger than they did.

I can't wrap my head around how they thought having Kane and Big Show eliminating guys like Wyatt, Ziggler, and Ambrose makes any sense. Only person that would benefit from a RR booked like that would be a heel. Like if Seth came out at 30, they toss everyone out and then jump out themselves.

The ENTIRE Rumble match starting with the Bryan elimination was a complete GARBAGE. Prior to Bryan getting eliminated it was actually going great, IMO.

And this is not coming from a person who just hates Reigns won, I do not think Reigns winning was the right decision, but that is what it is. If I was a fan of Reigns I would still think the Rumble itself was GARBAGE (after D-Bryan's elimination)

EVERYTHING starting with Bryan's elimination was done to protect Reigns from getting boo'd (and it all backfired BAD):

Getting Bryan out of the way before Reigns even got in the match
Reigns is the one who pushed Miz off the ring so Mizdow (crowd fav) got to be in the match
The other "fan favorties" in the match (Ziggler and Ambrose mostly) got dumped in ways that made them look bad
Final Four was Reigns, Show, Kane, and Rusev so just Reigns and 3 top heels.

The WWE made everyone of their top/uppercard faces (except Cena) look terrible in that Rumble match just to protect Reigns. It made the match predictable, very slow at the end, and just anti-climatic and flat out boring.

The WWE needed to ask themselves, if we really have to do ALL these things, plus bring The Rock out at the end to protect this FACE from getting boo'd, is he really the correct choice to win this year?

Big Show and Kane were used in this scenario because Vince thought that them eliminating fan favorites Ambrose and Ziggler would get fans behind Reigns when it was just the 3 of them left.

The proper booking would have had Reigns, Bryan, Ziggler, and Ambrose in the final 5 along with Bray or Rusev. that should have been the final 6.

Exactly! and also Bryan should have been out there as #1 entry and still made it to the final four. Bryan was the energy of that match and once he got thrown out after being in there for like 10 minutes they might as well just had a random fan win.
Im not hatin on Reigns,...Im just sayin!

Believe that!

This fucking disaster could have been avoided.. I can see it in front of me.. Fat slow and the jabroni kane fuck off.. Let bryan bray and ziggs and dean stay with Romen.. (This does not make it fucking obvious who is winning that ruined it for me.. Royal rumbles should be not predictable who booked this shit XD)

Romen can still win and make Bryan Ziggs and Dean Bray look strong for staying long or maybe ending the fucking match like a normal royal rumble match.. Because how they did it made it obvious that Reings was handpicked and they had to break kayfabe.. Reings can maybe fucking do a dirty elimination like from behind something cheap have him win.. I dont know just NOT having the rock help him beat the fat slow and corporate jobber/jabroni and making it obvious that Reings is handpicked and going to be fucking force fed.. Dont make it so crystal clear because Vince hella aint sure Reings will be succesfull..

Now reings has too much pressure.. Is green.. Its a incoming train wreck my lord..

I really don't get the hate for Kane/Big Show. They are only following instructions.

Vince/creative are the ones who write the show.

If Ambrose, Wyatt and Ziggler fans are moaning that their guys got 'placed' out of the ring, as a Kane fan, im disgusted that both he and big show turn on each other and get eliminated very easily by Reigns...
 
#26 ·
Big Show and Kane have had their day and time in the limelight. I don't hate Kane but I do hate his character now. He was awesome as the Big Red Machine but now he sucks. Big Show, I guess you could say I hate. Didn't like him as a crying face and don't like him as a authority lackey. He's way past his prime, can hardly move and puts on the most boring matches. At least Kane can still go.

Oh I am dirty at Kane and Big Show don't you worry.

The fact to old 45 year olds are making the final 3 of a Rumble in 2015 and also with a roster that has Bryan, Ambrose, Wyatt, Ziggler, Sandow etc is fucking unbelievable.

How are they still stuck with the mindframe that these 2 oxygen thieves cause that's what they are, belong in the final 3 of a Rumble?

Maybe 15 years ago yes, but not in 2015 and the fact they were there just shows that this 'authority' shit is all they have going now. Kane and Big Show always get involved in whatever it is that is hot at the time and 11 times out of 10 they fuck it up.

What about little Romen winning ONLY BECAUSE Rock helped him?
This is fucking bullshit. Why was this even allowed? And why other wrestlers cant bring a help then? Or hire dozen of bodyguards taht will clear the ring for the win?

Fuck logic.

Haven't you been watching WWE over the last few months? Kane has been putting over new talent like he always does? in fact it's nice to see a win been squeezed out of Kane as he always puts talent before himself. Can't you see what the angle at the Rumble was meant to be? I'm guessing the plan was to have Show and Kane throw out the fan favorites and get behind Reigns but obviously that didn't work out so well.
 
#11 ·
Don't get me wrong, I really liked Kane in his Big Red Machine days. This Corporate Kane just sucks. He could still be Kane in his tights and mask and be brought in when the authority needs a little heavy muscle. He doesn't need to interfere in every match and be kept in the main event. Yes he sometimes puts over new talent but often times he is used to take fan favorites out of contention and it's getting old. Like I said he can still wrestle but his current role stinks. As for Big Show he just needs to go away.

I know why booking put them there but the fact remains they never should have been in the final four. I never said they were trying to put themselves over, I only said they should used to put new talent over. There are a lot of ways Reigns could have been made to look strong without putting those two in the final four. The way they tossed Wyatt, Ambrose & Ziggler was stupid booking. They didn't need to come off looking weaker to make Reigns look stronger, the writer's did a shitty job.

Kane is over lol.
Not sure what you are trying to say, but if you are insinuating I said Kane was over then you are mistaken. I never said Kane was over.

Yes they do when they have a match. My point is they should not have been used to eliminate all the fan favorites, that could have been done without them and made a more interesting Rumble by letting Bryan, Ambrose, Wyatt, Rusev, Ziggler & Reigns battle it out. Each man could have looked strong and Reigns still could have won. It had a terrible ending to what started out pretty well. Lazy, shit booking. And I am tired of always seeing them on every show meddling in the main event. They may not necessarily be going over the newer talent but they sure aren't helping them either by beating them down, Ambrose for example.

Agreed for the most part.
I agree it was going great until Bryan got eliminated and they did make all the top faces look like shit, they even made Wyatt look bad after taking out several guys and being in for what, something like 40 minutes? It was a crappy ending and too predictable. We all pretty much knew Reigns was going to win it, but they could have still given us a little doubt by ending it like I said above with the new guys battling it out. There are a lot of better ways to make Reigns look strong without making everyone else look weak, using the authority to take them out and bringing even more heat onto Reigns.

I don't understand the comments that The Rock helped Roman win. NOPE.

Roman eliminated them both, they jumped back in the ring to screw over Roman Reigns. The Rock just came out to even it out. It's like people don't even pay attention anymore.

Back on topic. Kane isn't fat.
Nope, didn't say Kane was fat, I said Fat Slow, meaning Big Show, not Kane.

People don't hate Kane

They just don't care about him and haven't for years

Coming from a big Kane fan as well, he shouldn't be on TV anymore
Agreed. I don't hate Kane but I sure don't like his current role. He used to be awesome, now he's just a joke.

Has anyone ever cared about Big Show? Not only is that a stupid name but his entire career has been pretty pointless. I've never met anyone who was a fan if his. I don't think anyone's going to look back and say "Damn, that Big Show was a great wrestler. I miss that guy". The only thing he's ever done that I enjoyed was getting Perfect-plexed by Curt Hennig. The day he retires will be a good one.

Kane and Big Show eliminating all the superstars was awesome, they are awesome as a team, this was the best moment of the royal rumble ppv, and Kane broke hbk's record ,that was very exiting, I was waiting for Kane to break the the record the last 4 years, and as a kane fan I'm pretty glad of him being dominant and eliminating 4 superstars

Kane is Awesome and he is a legend, you must respect him

Honestly dude, you are giving Kane fans a bad name! :faint: Don't try to tell me who I must respect. The fact is I do respect Kane for his past work, his work ethic, his willingness to help the new talent and the fact that at his age he can still go. Old Kane with the mask was awesome. That however is beside the point. You don't tell people they must respect a certain wrestler. I hate Kane in his current "authority" role, I hate his constant interference in matches and I hate it when the company chooses to put him over all of the top up and comers. Good for you that you jizzed all over yourself at him eliminating everyone else, breaking HBK's record (which wasn't a big feat when he had someone else helping him) and feeling it was the best moment of the rumble. :clap I didn't feel that way and contrary to your belief, I don't have to.

Man, since I made Janine cry at the Christmas party, Ray and Egon have got me doing this whole 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all ...' crap, but I'm gonna break my new year's resolution to wholehearedly agree with you. Big Show and Kane are the epitome of the dead horse that has been flogged and flogged and flogged. They're beyond stale, beyond boring, beyond embarrassing ... they aren't getting booed because they're heels, they're getting booed because nobody wants to see them anymore and the fact that they eliminated some of the most promising, talented and popular young performers on the roster (and in such a half-assed, lacklustre, give-a-fuck way) was the worst, most insulting part of the whole Royal Rumble. I didn't mind Reigns winning, I just hated the way it was done. Whoever booked that shit needs to GTFO along with Kane and Big Show.

People are missing the point of that segment, the point of that happening was that Show and Kane were tossing all the fan favorites out so that hopefully everyone would get behind Reigns leading to him winning.

Even though that didn't happen and everyone shit all over him the crowd wasn't exactly going to get behind him, with Bryan, Ziggler and Ambrose been the Final Four was it?
