Will Cain and Kane both be in the Rumble match?

What do you guys think was the best rumble of the 10βs? Iβd probably say 2018 followed by 2017. A lot of forgettable ones this past decade and some god awful ones like 2010 and 2015. I would probably say 2017. A lot of cool eliminations and great star power with Taker, Goldberg, and Brock all in it. It did have a lot of guys in the ring throughout which a lot of people don't like but that's never really bothered me as I prefer those kind of Rumble's. Other then the awful 2015 edition I think every one has at least been decent since 2013 in that they most of them may have not been super memorable but they were at least entertaining enough and weren't bad in the slightest. 2010 through 2012 was a pretty rough three year stretch. Hated 2010 with every one getting eliminated super fast. 2011 was the ill fated 40 man experiment in which they had awful middle portion to kill time with Nexus dominating forever. 2012 had way too much comedy and joke entrants for a match to determine the main event of WrestleMania. At least that one a good one on one at the end between Sheamus and Jericho at the end which kind of salvaged it a little.

A lot of forgettable ones this past decade and some god awful ones like 2010 and 2015. 2018 by a massive margin. 2017 was really fun but that felt like a match that didn't pick up until nearer the end with Goldber, 'Taker and Lesnar involved. 2018 is genuinely the most consistent Rumble they've had in years. And the only worse Rumble than 2015 was 1999. That's how bad 2015 was.

Felt like a real 'passing of the torch' between the stewards of the decade to the people leading the company now. Seeing Cena and Reigns finally get theirs was worth it, pity they did nothing with Nakamura afterwards.

Will Cain and Kane both be in the Rumble match? Or will they face off 1 on 1 at the PPV in a Singapore Cane match?

Iβm on the same boat, I donβt mind the ring being packed, which is why I hate the 2010 rumble. I felt 2018 had great pacing and made Nakamura look like a star, which is funny to look back in retrospect. Looking at the winners of the rumbles this decade itβs mostly 2nd time winners (Cena, Batista, HHH, Orton) or guys that didnβt pan out (Del Rio, Sheamus, Nakamura). Iβd say Edge and Rollins were good choices to win their respective rumbles, and Reigns was a disaster in 2015.

As announced tonight on SD, the winner of next week's Triple Threat #1 Contender's Match between Miz, Bryan, and Corbin will face The Fiend for the Universal Championship at the Rumble.

I think Corbin wins the triple threat and faces The Fiend at the Rumble. Since the Rumble matches themselves are the reason people tune in every year, they can get away with doing a match like that.

It'd be so WWE to have Fiend v Bryan at Rumble instead so we can have Baron Corbin in the Rumble.

I doubt they're going to do heel vs. heel. Although I guess they have been having the Fiend fight heels on house shows and post show dark matches so it does seem like they're experimenting a face run for him. I still think it's going to be Bryan as that's the match they're clearly building towards to. I see Corbin being in the Rumble since you have to assume Reigns is also going to be in it and that feud doesn't seem like it's over.

Then Baron does the Reigns stuff in the Rumble or they have that reported Dog Collar match and Bryan wins the Rumble match. Though putting Bryan in the Rumble is risky as the crowd could hijack it again if he doesn't win.

There would be absolutely no interest in that match what so ever.

On the other hand, it IS Royal Rumble where thereβs a precedence of having filler title matches because the main Rumble matches sell the show.

I really want to know who the agent for those Nak/AJ matches were, because they didn't do either man any favors.

Everything about the company since I started watching again has led me to believe that the winner of the Rumble will be Cain Velasquez, to a chorus of confusion and disappointment.

My likely Royal Rumble winner is Roman Reigns. But my sleeper Rumble winner is Aleister Black.

Otis and his ham are so over right now, I hope he has a good showing and at least makes it to the final four or five. If they plan on having a heel win it, they could even tease him winning it like Santino in 2011.

If Reigns didn't already have a Rumble win to his name it wouldn't bother me so much.
But as I'm very anti people winning the Rumble more than once I'd rather he didn't.
