Cena and Reigns are getting crowned on the same show and it's going to rule/be funny/be Vince's dream come true

Because Undertaker got me into wrestling after a match with Kurt Angle that's why :colbert:

Definitely watch the Rumble this month. This is the most it's looked like Kurt will come back in a decade

I like Reigns being directly in the middle of the front-row part timers

Second place is the image of Taker from 2009

after a somewhat cool year post-mania 2016, we've come back full circle. hopefully this will likely be the last year of Undertaker (old as poo poo) Brock (suspensions, etc) or Cena (breaks Flair's record, nothing else to prove) and, best case scenario, Roman gets murdered by Samoa Joe or something so he, Nakamura, and Balor can come back into the fold. But that's all wishful thinking

Brock's deal ends Mania 2018 so this is very likely his last full year. Taker, your best bet is the Cena match because he isn't done until after that match happens

No one in NXT cares: main roster means more money. They won't care if it's Raw or Smackdown or Nitro or Mid South or JCP.

I miss NXT

I miss everything. It's just bitter sweet. I'm really happy to be with WWE but it was a family back there. The family that I grew up with. It has a different feel to the crowd. We all grew together and we all built NXT together. It wasn't just the fans or it wasn't just the roster. It was all of us putting together, their giving their heart and soul when cheering and we were giving our heart and soul when we were performing in the ring. So this together made magic and it displayed on TV so that people at home could feel that. I just miss everything. NXT is so special

Taker's two rumored opponents are both in championship matches already and are likely to leave with their respective belts and with that being the case, I can't see a reason he would be in it if he wasn't winning it.

And if he wins it, I doubt they're making him look that strong for a John Cena match.

If he fights Cena it's his last match

If he doesn't fight Cena, he's not going to be done until he does, so enjoy another year of people wondering why he's coming back and not wanting to see him die

Big Dave seems to think if he fights cena, it means he'll job to Roman next year. If he can't go past this year, he'll job to Roman now.

..................

Do they just really never want Reigns to be the big face they've clearly always wanted him to be, because hoo loving boy :laffo: if they think retiring Taker is going to be the big thing that finally makes it work and doesn't just piss fans off more than ever

So did everybody just know ahead of time exactly who was gonna win the last few Rumbles because it was obvious, or what? People are saying this one's better because it's unpredictable, but like, isn't it supposed to be unpredictable every year? Isn't that kinda the point?

Ideally it's supposed to be unpredictable.

Batista and Reigns winning were extremely predictable. Hilarious but predictable

And to think Bryan Alvarez was POSITIVE Kurt was gonna die when TNA signed him. loving amazing.

To be clear, Bryan was 100% reasonable in that guess. I'm stunned it worked out relatively okay considering.

It was hard to find anybody around that period who thought Kurt would still be alive in a few years, let alone today
