Gotta love that Nattie and Tamina are having a match for the #30 spot. f***ing stupid. They really done the womens rumble dirty this year...giving the #30 slot to one of two women who clearly have no chance of winning and next to no actual build because all the women are busy doing other things which has made their own rumble a total afterthought. The only woman who actually seems to care even just a little is Bianca. R-Truth got No. 30 in advance a couple years ago only to be attacked by Nia Jax. So expect similar shenanigans this year.

So truth is gonna pillamize Tamina thinking it is Nia and take her place? I like the way you book.

The lack of a push for the womens rumble - bar Bianca - does make me think an NXT callup is winning it. Io? Rhea?
Knowing WWE it'll turn out to be Vanessa Borne.

Gonna feel weird not having Reigns there at the very end to play spoiler - he's been at worst third place in every Rumble since 2014 except 2019.
Though I'm sure Charlotte will play a similar role, given she won last year and was the runner-up the year before.

I thought the amount of declared entrants in the women's Rumble seemed small but then I went back and checked and only 15 women in last year's Rumble were from the main roster. Probably going to see a ton of NXT and legends talent again tomorrow.

If they have any sense at all they wouldn't be doing Rumble matches in the first place the Rumbles are going to be really light on the amount of people in the ring at one time. I thought the amount of declared entrants in the women's Rumble seemed small but then I went back and checked and only 15 women in last year's Rumble were from the main roster. Probably going to see a ton of NXT and legends talent again tomorrow. Not counting Asuka, Sasha, Carmella, Mia, and Becky, the main roster only has 19 women on it. There'll definitely be a huge NXT presence.

If not for covid I'd be hopeful of a rumble spot for Kay Lee Ray but thats unlikely given, well, pandemics.

Weird thing I just realized, if Goldberg wins he'll be the first guy to hold the World, WWE, and Universal titles (not counting when Brock had the physical World belt for all of a day, belt's lineage was retired by then). Hell, he is already the only person to hold the World and Universal ones.

My Predictions, Edge, Belair, Reigns, Goldberg, Sasha, Asuka and Charlotte I'm thinking... Brock, Bianca, Reigns, Drew / Goldberg goes to a draw, Sasha, Asuka & Charlotte. The only ones of those I would be shocked to see go another way are Roman and Sasha.

I'm likely not doing the numbers game this year on my end so no skin off my back! Could always be worse - back in 2010, I wound up with John Morrison and Cody Rhodes in the Rumble draw and sodding Shawn Michaels came in and eliminated both of them in the same ten seconds!

I just watched a clip of yesterday's Smackdown. Anyone else easily distracted by the piped-in crowd reactions?

I've already mentioned how I got Bianca last year set out to eliminate every other person who I wound up with so I can relate. I had never been so annoyed Tamina was eliminated from the Rumble before.

Legit considering skipping the Rumble since I have zero desire to see Brock and Bayley or Bianca win the Rumbles and Goldberg to squash Drew for zero reason at all.
