Of course Batista could win the rumble and become a wild card.
Or wwe could be truly daring and have someone win and challenge for the ECW title!

Doubtful on the second statement as it would probably be real boring to see that honestly. I like Punk and all, but unless it's someone from Raw or Smackdown coming over that is a big name, no one will care.

"Charlie Haas came out and cut a promo about being a all American wrestling champion which brought out that scottish guy that was teaming with Dave Taylor. Haas was trying to get over some stupid gimmick where he ducked under the ring, put on a mask then started winning only to be demasked and lose. It was pretty terrible."
So Shelton goes to the main event of ECW and Haas is left with this? Boy I bet he's happy to back where he was before he got fired originally...

Sigh...so another year without Hacksaw in the Rumble? Boo. Well, at least he got a chance to be in this one. Last year - the one he definitely shoulda been in (20th Rumble, he won the very 1st one) - he never got a qualifying match or was mentioned.

I'm anxious to watch the Flair/HHH match solely for the crowd.
And it will be interesting to see how Regal's apparent face turn goes...

I thought the JBL/Orton vs. Y2J/Hardy match was scheduled for TV? I swear I read that somewhere the other day...
Oh well, wouldn't be surprised if we get it sometime before the Rumble...
And now we get Beat the Clock followed by RAW Roulette? Awesome!

Thank goodness for the detailed spoilers, otherwise I thought that Mickie was definitely out of the picture. At least with it being a three way and Melina being pinned, they could still do Beth/Mickie at the Rumble.

If Triple H really is out of the Rumble match, then I honestly have no clue who's gonna win it, as I thought he was the obvious choice. Of course there's the possibility of Taker winning again, but for some reason I just don't see WWE having him win it 2 years in a row. And like someone else said, I think Batista is a possibility as well if he doesn't win the Smackdown Beat the Clock Sprint. The next few weeks will be interesting.

Maybe im alone here, But im glad HHH is no longer in the Rumble, But ofcourse They will probably somehow make him get back in it again.
I can see there being HHH vs William Regal on the Card as a Filler match.

So Taker wins the Rumble to face Edge at WM, Orton retains against Jeff and at NWO, Jeff and HHH are the final two in the Chamber with HHH winning.

Come on! The first ever Rumble winner who has aged 21 years and is getting higher(on the drugs) every minute needs to be in a rumble with people who are 21 years younger and fresher than him! NOT!

From what I read he cost Trips the Rumble match by KO'ing Flair. Sounds like Regal saved Flair from losing by hitting Trips on purpose. Regal got his revenge on Vince by helping keep Flair's winning streak intack.

Regal got his revenge on Vince by helping keep Flair's winning streak intack. Personally I read it the other way around in that Regal hit Flair in front of the referee so that Triple H could get disqualified, thus losing his Royal Rumble slot and for Regal to prove to Vince that he still "got it" as I read in other reports of the taping. It's just that by doing so, he inadvertantly (sp?) saved Flair's career.

maybe Trips will sport a mask, Ala mr. America. He could be Me. Motorhead or something.

At tonight's Raw taping in Greensboro, N.C. (to air New Years Eve on USA Network), Torch columnist Bruce Mitchell reports the following: -Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler hosted. You know, normally I don't mind spoilers but, that really killed me. How will I be able to enjoy the show knowing this? At least they didn't say Michael Cole hosted, then it'd be impossible for ANYONE to enjoy the show. ohhh snap

That Rumble's got some low standards for qualification.
