I woke up late this morning (Manila local time) so I only got to started watching live during the Logan Paul vs. Kevin Owens match. I was so relieved the wrong finalist didn’t win the men’s Rumble match.

Watching the PLE replay now, boy did my goosebumps raise with the surprise entrants to the women’s Rumble!

I loved how they hit the surprises right from the get go. It kind of tempered my expectations for a big surprise later in the match, and in the meantime, the women worked so hard to keep the focus in ring. I’d have to rewatch, but in the now, I think the women’s match was slightly better than the men’s.

I just saw on the women’s match the on-screen graphics for some of their time in the ring. Did they have that too for the men’s match? It didn’t show up on our Disney+ livestream

I didn’t see it during the men’s match but it was definitely a welcome addition to the women’s. I’ll probably rewatch the show tomorrow so if the graphics pop up I’ll let you know.

I just checked the men’s one, yes they had the graphics as well
