Nominating:

Womens Rumble Match

[Joe]

Nominating:

Womens Rumble Match
Bray vs. Bryan - Strap Match

No to both, but nominating the men’s rumble!

[Iamspiderman]

Nominating:

Womens Rumble Match
Bray vs. Bryan - Strap Match

No to both, but nominating the men’s rumble!

NO to the Mens Rumble (I can't forgive/forget the first half of that match, even if it gave us the end result)

[Azmodeous]

No to all 3. I did enjoy Bryan vs Wyatt but not enough to nominate it. The women's Rumble started strong and puttered out at the end. The men's match was the exact opposite where the first half was painful to watch and the second half was a lot of fun.

[Iamspiderman]

Nominating:

Lee/Dijakovic - Takeover Portland
Kai/Nox - Takeover Portland
Balor/Gargano - Takeover Portland

[Joe]

Nominating:

Lee/Dijakovic - Takeover Portland
Kai/Nox - Takeover Portland
Balor/Gargano - Takeover Portland

Yes! And I’ll throw in Bianca vs Rhea and Cole vs Ciampa.

[Iamspiderman]

NO to Bianca/Rhea - felt a little bit on the short side for me.
I'm on the fence with Cole/Ciampa. I'm gonna say NO only because of how overbooked it felt to me. The NXT formula exposed itself too much here for me. It's ok to not have 46 kickouts of every finisher in the world every single main event.
