Royal Rumble 1/24/16

Re: Royal Rumble 1/24/16

Why do you guys think that WWE made the title be on the line this year?

My guess is because there isn't legitimate competition in a singles match but mostly because they are going up against the NFC Title Game as opposed to the Pro Bowl like any other year.

I think it has more to do with the fact that they probably can't get things to line up how they want for WrestleMania any other way. I feel like they don't want Reigns walking in as Champion, they don't want him dropping the belt in a 1 on 1 match, and they didn't want to keep the belt on Sheamus

Re: Royal Rumble 1/24/16

Yea I think it's the injuries...and this leads into another thing I have been thinking. The IC title match is going to suck for a last man standing match. This is because they NEED all hands on deck for the Rumble later in the night. And that means Ambrose and Owens are going to have to pull double duty. So you can't have two guys kick the living **** out of each and then an hour or so later come out and enter the Rumble.

The winner...maybe, but the loser should definitely be in no shape to enter. Unless of course the match ends with some sort of goofy finish like the Cena/Wyatt last man standing match from 2014

Not if they sold the wear and tear.

Re: Royal Rumble 1/24/16

Just leave it as this. You are correct in what you say about marriage dates, and we are correct in what we say about Wrestlemania. It's stupid that WWE says incorrect information like this. Kinda like how everyone thought that 2000 was the first year of the new millennium but the truth is is that 2001 was.

Marriage wise, like mentioned, if you get married in 2000, 10th anniversary is 2010,cause 1 full year of marriage would be 2001. Just like when you're born, you don't start at 1,cause you haven't been born for a year yet. Looks like wwe has learnt from wm25, cause now they just say things like "32nd annual(for wm32)", which is the more accurate term.

I just dont get why IB had to throw an insult in there for no reason. Whats the point of throwing in the unnecessary "did you eat paint as a kid" line....And besides, you ended up being mistaken on that fact anyways.

Thats one thing about this site i find irritating at times. Not from 1 specific person, but anytime someone disagrees on a point, why do they insist on putting people down/taking unnecessary cheap shots for no reason. If you disagree,say so and then let the other person explain. Dont be like "i disagree, and btw,you're an idiot for thinking the way you do.".

Having just seen the betting odds for the rumble, I'm watching solely for the crowd reaction.

Spoiler alert!!

Lol really though, the anticipation of surprises are the best part of the rumble. Dont know last time if ever, i looked forward to a rumble for the in ring action itself. I wanna see the surprises, or stories in a match. Hopefully they do have both. Not just a regular rumble with 2-3 surprise entrants in a generic feeling battle royal with entrance and elimination orders which make no sense.

EX-Wyatt family members should be in rumble together. Doesn't need to be all 4 at once, but at least 2. Better than what we've seen from some teams in the past where one member enters 5th, another 17th, never being in at same time,eliminated genetically like a zack ryder,heath slater of the rumble,by someone they have no association/rivalry with.

Reigns can't possibly win this right?

Yea he can...will he? I have no idea.

They couldn't possibly be dumb enough to do that. He's not the most over guy with the crowd, but they've made a ton of progress with him since TLC. Him winning tonight would destroy all that and set Roman back to where he was a year ago

Re: Royal Rumble 1/24/16

Around what time will the actual Rumble start? 9 central? I don't care about the rest of the event, but I want to stay out of this thread and off Twitter for the actual Rumble so I can watch it fresh tomorrow and have a genuine reaction to the entrants as they happen.

As for my Final 4, I want it to be the Wyatt Family. Bray in the center of the ring surrounded by Harper, Rowan, and Strowman. He drops to his knees, and the other 3 step over the top rope and eliminate themselves.

That's about the last thing that will happen, but that's what I want lol.

I don't think it will set him back. They can always use the heat and make him heel. It isn't like he's Cena and vowed to always be a face. They have the option to change him if **** hits the fan.

Roman winning doesn't make any sense for storyline purpose leading up to Mania...

The surprises the last few years have been fairly underwhelming, but I'm still excited to see if they step up their game this year.

If the betting odds are accurate and they tend to be, it all reeks of predictability. I think that's been a problem with WWE programming over the years. I'd love to see some swerves and heel turns that don't include the Big Show again.
