Looking back at what they did Monday, though I'm not sure how much it would affect the PPV buys, this should have been the plan for a "3 hour RAW" all along. Show the main event along with "exclusive" interviews with the two contenders and maybe another challenger.
ON THIS DAY: @WWE #RoyalRumble 2014 saw @DaveBautista outlast 29 other men to win it all! http://t.co/LxN5JbuNCH pic.twitter.com/KFMJ6XfP02

Solid trolling
Fair point. In honesty, I really only took exception to the point of him not getting over on his own.
Anyone other than Bryan winning was not going to go over well. Reigns, though, was the worst choice (unless they somehow got Cena in there and he won) because it was a case of "their guy"...
Because he wasn't a member of that group? He got over in that group and then the group split. So they gave him a shot to get over outside the group, which I'd say was his dominance in the Rumble last year, and guess what? He got over again. Then he got hurt, it derailed, and now they forced him...
The more people say it's a non-issue, the more it becomes one. If we just stopped talking about it, wouldn't it really be a non-issue? Then again, of course I'd say that. I'm a fan of the Patriots*
Actually, he wasn't. Teams use different balls, though both are supposedly checked pre-game. In the Super Bowl, however, I think they all use the same ones.
