Si on se fie aux réactions sur les médias sociaux, le "Royal Rumble" 2014 est probablement le plus décevant de l'histoire de la WWE.
Voici quelques réactions, sur Twitter, de personnalités reliées au monde de la lutte.

Sadly WWE is still run by “Muscle Marks.” It is what it is folks.

When the vocal minority becomes the whole crowd, that's not dumb luck. That's how you sold a zillion Austin 3:16/NWO t-shirts.

If you want to send a message Chanting won't do it. Watch only @WWEDanielBryan segments on RAW, turn other segs off. That's a message.

support and cheer the guy you want and remain silent for guys you don't. Negative hijacking can lead to a spiteful response. #WeWantRyder

Biggest disappointment in Royal Rumble history, possibly in WWE history. Bryan is so over that everyone else is now a heel by result.

Après avoir exprimé brièvement son dégoût, hier sur Twitter, face au "Royal Rumble", Mick Foley en remet sur sa page Facebook.
Il critiquement vertement la WWE pour son traitement réservé à Daniel Bryan.
Foley ne comprend pas pourquoi la WWE ignore les fans, quaiifiant la popularité de Bryan de "phénomène". Il soutient que Bryan, Ziggler et Punk méritent un meilleur match pour "Wrestlemania 30".
En tant qu'ambassadeur de la WWE, Foley affirme avoir perdu beaucoup d'enthousiasme à l'endroit de la compagnie.

"As I mentioned on Twitter, I've never felt so disgusted at the conclusion of a WWE (or any) PPV. Like many of you out there, I just don't get it. This Daniel Bryan thing is a phenomenon. You get it. I get it. The fans in Pittsburgh (yes, I was thinking of writing "RIGHT TH...but I'm just not in a cheap pop mood) got it. But tonight, for the first time, I had to admit to myself that the powers that be are just not going to get it. And that makes me sad. I'm just honestly sad, just flat out fucking sad (yes, I dropped an F-bomb there to emphasize how F'ing sad I am for the guys who bust their butts night in and night out - Ziggler, Punk, Bryan, etc - with no hope of getting their shot at this year's Mania.
You know who else I'm sad for? Me. In my two years as an official WWE Ambassador, I never once had to lie about my enthusiasm for the company or the product. Now, although I am no longer officially an Ambassador for WWE (believe it or not, my only official role in WWE is as GM for Saturday Morning Slam, a contract that ends in one month) I was till looking forward to being part of the biggest event of the year. I'll probably end up going anyway. But I'm about 1/6th as excited about it as I was just a few hours ago. I wanted so badly to hear 75,000 WWE fans chanting "YES" - and seeing fans walk away absolutely ecstatic about the outcome of a PPV for the first time in a while...a long while. But when given the chance to make it happen (unless they've got something MAJOR up their sleeve) WWE's answer tonight was a resounding "NO, NO, NO"."
