Wrestling Observer Live: WWE Royal Rumble fallout

I am back with another Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live discussing the latest in professional wrestling — led off by Saturday’s WWE Royal Rumble.

I run down both the men’s and women’s Rumble matches which saw Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley winning. I also discuss the biggest spots including marathon performances from Gunther, Ripley and Liv Morgan.

The main event saw Roman Reigns successfully retain the undisputed WWE Universal title over Kevin Owens, but the big story was after the match when Sami Zayn couldn’t bring himself to attack Owens. Instead, he turned on Reigns and the Bloodline, minus Jey Uso, made him pay. I break it all down and how I think this plays into WrestleMania.

Plus, I give my thoughts on the Pitch Black match, the Raw Women’s title match, the overall length of the show, and more.
