Hes been pushed hard recently, cant remember the last time he lost and dont forget he is a 2x WWE Champion, and a King of the RIng winner. I had him down as my no.3 after Jericho and Orton. Certainly a qualified winner. The only thing is where does this leave us for Mania. Sheamus vs. Bryan? The dark match from last year.

I'll give my full thoughts on the Rumble later, but I was surprised to see Sheamus win the Rumble. I had him down as 4th favourite behind Jericho, Orton, and Barrett. Yes, he has been pushed for the last few months but I just find it odd/annoying that he's gone from feuding with the awful Jinder Mahal to getting a title match at Wrestlemania. I like the guy but I just think he could've been pushed better. Plus who did he last eliminate? Jericho, who has been back for less than a month. Yes, Jericho is a big name but I think Sheamus would've looked better eliminating an Orton or a Cena to get the win.
Thinking about it, it was a kind of deserved win for Sheamus. There are plenty of heels who'd have a hard time turning face and his one is a massive success.
Because there were last year and you hadn't listened when they announced it was back to 30 this year?
They had 40 last year.
I think most casual fans have given up caring at this point. A lot of hype, a bunch of talk and nothing delivered so far.
Also given the threatening nature of the promos before he returned, that he has came back as a silent goofball who then turned into a threatening heel and then ended up looking like a fool when his guarantee fell through thanks to a brogue kick... I think unless Jericho basically has a massive fit and leaves someone badly beaten at the end of RAW, they might as well just stick a fork in him because this return angle has totally fizzled out and is done unless they do something dramatic to rejuvenate it.
As it is he just looks like someone who has bought his own hype and ended up looking foolish for his efforts.
as for YJ2 winning again I think people thought it was a cert and they did throw a curve ball, but it was still a poor ppv considering it was of the big 4
Pleased enough to see Sheamus winning, big fan of his work. LOL at the Jericho angle failing to deliver yet again, I gave up on it weeks ago.
at the rumble the world will end...
well it didn't & we're all still confused as to whats going on.
this raw tonight i feel will make or break jericho's what i would think last run in the WWE
If Jericho had won the rumble last night then i would have agreed with you.
I wouldn't be surprised if there is more intrest in HHH making his return tonight than what Jericho has to say tonight.
He has appeared in it for 13 Years , his first was in 1999 !
Maybe that's why they left him out.... 13 consectutive appearances
Seems like they're unsure what to do. Personally, I think that is the best option as the feud ended abrutly and adding the WWE title adds a new dimension.
Punk carries HHH; Jericho carries 'Taker.
Anywho, Jericho on twitter:
If it doesn't deliver or keep me intrigued tonight I think I'll have given up on it.
I thought it was always a title match?
No, last year Cena won the RAW EC match to face Miz at Wrestlemania.

That's a great line up. I wonder if they will make Sheamus wait until after the Elimination Chamber to choose which World Title he'll go after at WM.
I remember they did the exact same back in the 1992 Royal Rumble.
