Dolph Ziggler in my opinion is becoming a strong force for the Smackdown Roster and Lord knows they need it. In the first match up of the night,Edge and Dolph bought the house down. They worked off each other and the crowd and showed amazing chemistry. With the spear being banned in this match Edge had to use new tactics to get ahead in this match. Edge was in control in the beginning but then he fell victim to Dolph's amazing technical and high paced moves. With the interruption of Vickie Guerrero and Kelly Kelly,then the ref being out for a few minutes the winner of this match was impossible to decide. Edge used Vickie being knocked out and out of sight to his advantage and performed the illegal spear to Ziggler and won the match. This match deserved five stars in my opinion.
Randy Orton vs. The Miz
Already the buildup to match for me was good. A Wrestlemania match in my opinion. Any who, in this rivalry both competitors roles were changed. Randy Orton being the fan favorite and Miz being the hated,selfish champion. As we all expected in this match there was interference in this match from Alex Riley these tactics making Miz to feel lucky. Randy Orton took over and even executes the DDT. The Nexus comes out,Randy still stays focused to get Miz set up for the RKO,but CM Punk sneaks in the ring and attacks him and The Miz retains the title.
Natalya vs LayCool vs Eve Torres
I love Natalya's wrestling skills but they seriously have to give her real challenges. The match was first a handicap match but then turned into a fatal four way and Eve Torres was added. I really hate the state of the Women's Division so I choose not to comment on it.
Royal Rumble Match
CM Punk came in as the first entry and seem to feel very content with his number in the Rumble. Before the match officially started the Nexus entered the ring along with the Corre and a big brawl filled the ring. I found that scuffle to be pointless and was happy when Daniel Bryan came out to officially start the Rumble. Okay let me fast forward to the star of the Rumble Mr. John Morrison. He is officially my hero, he got thrown of the turn buckle lands on the security rail while his feet never touches the floor. Then he walks on the rail to jump on the stairs near the ring to enter the ring again. The way he got eliminated was complete b.s. but I'm confident that Morrison will get his title shot down the line. Throughout the middle of the Rumble the Nexus were dominating the match even over The Great Khali and they also ruined Booker T's Rumble Moment to me. Then Cena comes out to save the day and eliminated all the Nexus members except for CM Punk. Of course they had to make it comical and bring out Hornswaggle and have him do stupid moves and get dropped kicked by Sheamus. The next eventful moment was the return of Kevin Nash aka Diesel, I have to say that I got excited and loved the fans reaction to him, it made me reminisce about the 90's, ahh good memories!!! When Kevin Nash walks back to the locker room and bumps into Big Show you see the heat between them and know that this is foreshadowing something brewing between them at Wrestlemania. I always love when Kane comes into a Rumble because he completely dominates but like every time before he somehow gets eliminated, good luck next time Kane. The Final Four contestants were Wade Barrett, Cena, Orton, and Alberto Del Rio. Miz eliminated Orton, Randy Orton goes to eliminate Barrett and Del Rio eliminates Orton to become the 2011 Royal Rumble Winner. I have to admit I have mixed signals about Del Rio's win. I believe that Del Rio hasn't been in the WWE that long to be in the main event match but I feel that Smackdown doesn't have that many main eventers so I feel that's why they picked Del Rio. Now I know that John Morrison should've won but do you really think that Randy Orton was going to step aside and let Morrison take away his title shot at Wrestlemania I think not. So as we all know backstage politics runs this business that we love. Overall I enjoyed the Royal Rumble. People did get screwed but that's how wrestling is. Morrison had the moment of the night in my eyes!!!
