Movie Reviews of WWE Royal Rumble: The Complete Anthology - Volume Two
Movie Review: THE NEW GENERATION gives us Good and Bad
Summary: 5 Stars
The second set of Rumbles was a bit down from the first although i've honestly never been a huge fan of the Royal Rumble Match, the idea seems cool, but it just doesn't work for me...
1993- Stupidest ending to a Rumble ever as Yokozuna eliminates Randy Savage after Savage tries to pin him following an elbow drop and the first appearance of Giant Gonzalez attacking the Undertaker didn't help this one, but the undercard is okay, featuring THE ROCKERS EXPLODE when Shawn Michaels puts IC belt up against Marty Jennetty, Bret Hart defends the WWE championship against Razor Ramon, though i'm not sure anyone was buying RR as a serious threat to Bret Hart, Bam Bam Bigelow battles Big Boss Man, and The Beverly Brothers face the Steiners.
1994- Setup show for Wrestlemania as Owen Hart turns on Bret Hart during a tag title match vs. The Quebeckers to set up their WM match, than Bret comes back later in the evening to win the Rumble jointly with Lex Luger who had been looking for a rematch since Summerslam. Gotta love the E for all that convienently inconclusive camera work they showed over and over like it was going to show something... Razor Ramon defends the IC belt against IRS with a guest spot from HBK to set up "the ladder match" The Undertaker faces Yokozuna in a WWE Championship Casket Match that gets really cartoony and Tatanka battles Bam Bam Bigelow.
1995- What do I say about this mess? Bret Hart and Deisel work a good match for the WWE title although it's kind of killed by run ins from Bob Backlund, Owen Hart, and Shawn Michaels. The IC Match was decent between Jeff Jarret and Razor Ramon...but beyond that there ain't much. The Undertaker faces IRS, which allows King Kong Bundy to attack the Undertaker setting up a match no one wanted, needed, or cared about at WM. Tatanka and Bam Bam Bigelow battle 123 Kid and Bob Holly to be the one night tag champions. The aftermath sets up LT and Bam Bam for WM. The Royal Rumble was putrid it's essentually Shawn Michaels, British Bulldog, and Lex Luger vs. 27 perenial losers. The ending may be worth a fleeting glance.
1996-Razor Ramon defends the IC Title against Goldust with appearences by Marlena and 123 Kid, a Body Donnas tag match, Bret Hart defends the WWE Title against the Undertaker which kicks off Diesel's heel turn and sets up the UT match for Wrestlemania. The Rumble Match is a step up from last year, but that may not be complement. Shawn Michaels completes his comeback after an enzeguri from Owen Hart knocked him out of action for months by eliminating Diesel who teases his heel turn before shaking hands for the moment. The Rumble also includes the debut of Vlader and a showdown between him and Yokozuna.
1997- Last disk of the set...the evolution of Stone Cold Steve Austin continues rolling towards his epic submission match encounter with Bret Hart at WM 13. Kind of odd show actually...Austin wins the Rumble by sneaking back in the ring after he'd already been eliminated to eliminate Bret Hart. For the WWE title Shawn Michaels defeats Psyco Sid similar to how Sid defeated Shawn at Survivor Series that year. The Irony is that neither Bret or Shawn was in the WM Main Event. Goldust goes for the IC Title against HHH, Vader faces the Undertaker and Faarooq battles Ahmed Johnson.
Five stars for Nostaliga purposes, it's really a mix of the good, bad, and really ugly.
