The Royal Rumble is one of the biggest Premium Live Events of the year. The 2014 event is one for people to remember for multiple reasons. It was the year ‘The Animal’ Batista returned and won the Men’s Rumble match. It was the same year that the WWE Universe wanted to see Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan) win the event. It was also the same year, WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio returned. The Master of the 619 recently reflected on that match.
While speaking to Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes at the WWE WrestleMania Media Day, Rey Mysterio reflected on his return at the 2014 Royal Rumble. Mysterio was booed by the fans. But according to the WWE Hall of Famer, the fans were booing the writers as they were the ones who chose to not have Danielson compete in the Rumble.
They didn’t get who they wanted
“So I was kind of detached at the time, due to an injury. And when I came back or when I came out as number 30, I didn’t realize at the time what was going on until afterwards, rewatching. And understanding that who they wanted, they didn’t get. So they were booing the writing team, I guess. But overall, it was an experience,” Rey Mysterio explained.
“It’s always good to go through experiences like that where you don’t always have to turn out to be the right person. It’s okay every now and then to be the person that they weren’t expecting. And then eventually, give them the right answer. But again, that’s something WWE has always down. Keep the fans guessing on, what’s going to happen, who’s going to be the next one. And that was one of those nights. I was shocked,” Mysterio said.
Do you think Danielson should have won the 2014 Royal Rumble?
