They've been practically all decided for the last several years I think we've just generally ignored it in the past. I'd like if they took Diego, Fernando, Gabriel & Titus out of the rumble as they literally do nothing, but man the roster is pretty thin when you look at it. Nobody you can even entertain the idea winning outside of Reigns & Bryan - and they sure hurt the idea that Bryan will win the Rumble last night.

If I was forced to book this terrible Rumble Sami Zayn's music hits the second Bryan gets tossed. He could end up like Rey but at least it's someone the crowd might love rather than somebody they might not boo. e: I wonder what the quarter hours look like for Bryan and Bray after the 8:30 ad break vs. Reigns at 9:15 making the save for Flair with Hogan and Michaels.

Looking at that rumble entrant list has made me way less excited. The cynic in me is thinking all the jobbers are in there just for reigns to eliminate and beat his record.

I kinda can't tell who's gonna win anymore so I'm interested in the rumble again I guess.

Roman Reigns will win the rumble, and everyone will groan in unison.

So is it just me or did the ending of RAW really come across like a serious Lesnar face turn? I mean, taking on three guys to get your hands on the guy that attacked you last week and slamming two giants is something that Cena would be proud of.

Records are made to be broken, and this Sunday, Roman Reigns will break his previous record by coming in at #1 and then throwing literally everyone out as soon as they step in by doing nothing but superman punches.

He'll point to the Wrestlemania sign, then Superman Punch himself over the top rope.

Daniel Bryan posted:If they do Kane vs Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania, they really are the loving dumbest. Ehhh I like seeing Daniel Bryan do stuff, I don't care what it is. I'd really like to see them put Kane vs. Daniel Bryan in a loser leaves the WWE match and having it be Kane's retirement match. That would be a Wrestlemania moment especially if afterwards they hug it out. Might even make me cry.

Skunkrocker posted:Four unannounced wrestlers in the Royal Rumble out of the full thirty, eh? I don't think they can afford to have Randy return at the Rumble and not have him win it, and I don't think they'd have him win it. If he's returning I bet he returns to screw Seth Rollins out of winning the title at Rumble with an RKO out of nowhere and that'll be all he does on the night. I think that Triple H will enter himself at number 30 to try to screw Bryan over and Sting will get involved again.

UltimoDragonQuest posted:Nobody gives a poo poo about Randy Orton. Orton was a global meme about 2 months ago. He'll come back to a monster pop through the absence making the heart grow fonder principle and they need to capitalise on it. He was pissed at Rollins before he left. If they put him in the Rumble and he loses it he'll be back to square one so fast. They need to take advantage of his initial pop and get him super hot. He should be Rollins Mania feud. Let Rollins hold the case for a little while longer. Their feud could get them both more over than ever.

Sockser posted:At King of Trios, I was waiting to buy a Fire Ant shirt, and there was this like, five year old kid with a lucha mask pulled over his head, like just sitting on his noggin, asking the girl running the merch table if the wrestlers were going to be okay after Deucalion broke their spines. I once had to explain to a distraught kid who was sitting in front of me why Matt Hardy turned on Jeff. Poor little guy.

The Rollins/Heyman segment on smack down points to it as well. Not sure what the point of the turn would be, unless Brock re-signs.

In my dream WWE Sting's gimmick would be just messing with HHH. Not only during the show, but have pretaped vignettes of HHH at a restaurant ordering a medium rare steak, it comes out well done and Sting pops his head up out of the kitchen wearing a chef's hat with a huge grin.

keevo posted:Wrestlemania 32 is officially at the ATT stadium in Dallas (ok Arlington but only jabronis care about the difference). Well, if Austin is ever going to pop in for a match at Wrestlemania, I'd have to figure it would be at 32 in Texas. Now that would be a hell of a booster shot in Wrestlemania/network buys. Since the dream match with Punk is off the table, barring divine intervention, maybe he'd fight HHH, Bryan or Cena? One of the former Shield members could work too, if they really built someone up by then. It makes me sad that the streak isn't a thing anymore, because the next best thing to a Punk match would have been Stone Cold coming back to try to beat the streak just for the hell of it. Orgophlax posted:My prediction is Bryan loses on Smackdown, but then is a surprise entrant in the RR anyway to make up for last year. I'd be down for that, he'd already get a huge pop when his number's called but having that happen when no one expects him to be in the match would be a bit better. I don't know how you'd still surprise anyone unless he already had a match earlier at the PPV though, and I wouldn't put Bryan in that position fresh off his injury.

Every year they announce a ton of entrants for the Royal Rumble beforehand, and every year a handful of them are replaced by surprises and/or other jobbers, and not a word is ever spoken of it. I wouldn't put a ton of stock in the official list at all.
