Is Cena injured?

At today's live event in Kansas City, MO, it was announced that John Cena was injured and would not be attending the event nor wrestling.

He was scheduled to fight Randy Orton for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship but following the announcement Daniel Bryan made his way down to the crowd and challenged Orton to a steel cage match.

Huge Match Set for Elimination Chamber *SPOILER*

Triple H has announced on the smackdown tapings, that The Wyatt's will be pit against The Shield at Elimination Chamber in a huge 6-man tag-team match.

Royal Rumble 2014

Royal Rumble certainly lived up to the hype, we saw title changes, Match of the Year performances and a very controversial end to the main event of the Royal Rumble.

The pre-show match was for the Tag Team Championships with the champions, Goldust and Cody Rhodes a.k.a. The Brotherhood, going up against Billy Gunn and Road Dogg a.k.a. The New Age Outlaws. We saw The New Age Outlaws become the new 6 time tag team champions of the world and this loss, one can assume, is the start of the long awaited Rhodes brother match at Wrestlemania 30.

The match that kicked off the actual PPV was Daniel Bryan vs Bray Wyatt. This match will have to be considered as a match of the year candidate, it had everything a great match should have! Daniel Bryan's great work ethic and Bray Wyatt's athletic ability for a big man made this a match that needed to be watched by all fans of wrestling. Sadly Wyatt won the match but it was a great way to end the Bryan vs Wyatt feud.

This next 'match' was Big Show vs Brock Lesnar. The word match is in inverted comma's because you couldn't really call this a match. While Big Show was waiting in the ring while Lesnar made his way down to the ring, Lesnar attacked Show and pummeled him with chair shot after chair shot before the match had even started. Big Show got one knockout punch in but it only stunned Lesnar. Once the match had been started Lesnar F5ed Show for the win and then continued to beat Show with chair shots, breaking 3 chairs in the process. Lesnar looking dominant was the whole point of this match and the objective was achieved.

John Cena vs Randy Orton (c) for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship was the next match and this was probably one of the most boring matches I have witnessed between Orton and Cena. We all knew Orton was going to beat Cena and bar a few spots where Cena RKOed Orton and Orton AAed Cena it was a fairly slow match filled with finishers. What was great was the manner in which Orton won the title. Cena had Orton in the STF when suddenly that Wyatt Family sound happened and the lights went out and when they came back on, The Wyatt's had surrounded the ring. Cena went to attack them but when he turned around, Orton hit the RKO for the win. Bray then used Sister Abigail on Cena to set up a Wyatt vs Cena feud with it all culminating at Wrestlemania.

Now onto what we were all waiting for, the Royal Rumble match! There were a handful of surprise entrants as predicted, some returns and also some records being broken.

Here is the list of who entered where in the Rumble:

1. CM Punk

25. Seth Rollins eliminated by Roman Reigns
26. Dean Ambrose eliminated by Roman Reigns
27. CM Punk eliminated by Kane (who came back out)
28. Sheamus eliminated by Roman Reigns
29. Roman Reigns eliminated by Batista

As shown above, there were surprise entries for Nash, JBL and Alexander Rusev, Sheamus returned from injury, Roman Reigns beat Kanes 13 year record of 11 eliminations in one Rumble with 12 and probably two even greater travesties of Bryan not being entered into the match and Batista winning the whole event after a 4 year absence from the company. As soon as Rey Mysterio came out as number 30 and crushing the dreams of everyone in the process due to Bryan's absence the crowd were not pleased in the slightest. Boo's echoed around the arena and Daniel Bryan chants rang out! People cheered when the number 30 entry, Rey, was eliminated from the match and when it came down to the final three of Sheamus, Batista and Reigns, everyone was behind Reigns for the win, but was all in vain. Batista won the rumble and is main eventing Wrestlemania 30.

This was a sad day for Daniel Bryan fans and one can assume it seems to show the fans that WWE will do what they think is "best for business" and not what the fans want. Stay tuned for the fallout from the post Royal Rumble Raw.
