Shawn wins the Royal Rumble

[akkountent]

I find it interesting that it shows a couple ECW guys on the poster; I wonder if they will officially be involved in the Rumble match itself or if they'll just have a title match on the card. To me, 10 guys from each brand would be awesome and it would another level of excitement to the match itself which has lacked a bit of excitement in the past few years, IMO.

I also find it kind of interesting that Finley isn't on the poster yet he's been a main staple for Smackdown for a while now, even when this poster was probably developed. You might be able to determine that he'll be in the title match w/ Batista.

[Sharpy Snow]

With 10 from each brand, only 'the best' from each would qualify. (Though, it'll probably have to be 9 each to make room for 3 suprise entries.)

While the plus side is that it could really go to just about anyone in the match, the Rumble is really the only time that the undercard wrestlers get a chance to show their stuff.

Yeah, they get to show how they can punch and hold someone up near a top rope while they wait for a main eventer to come and eliminate them.

The event is in his hometown, he will definatley be at the end.
Can see him going out with HHH at the same time (DX decide to tie up at the end) when Orton sneaks up and pushes both out.

[salTy]

It would be awesome if Shawn won, and if they gave him another run with the belt.

[rko]

orton deserves this, he needs a real tittle run. you can only hold on to a one month regin for soo long.

Exactly.

Then again.....there's an undercard, where hopefully a few bigger names will be featured instead. That way, some space for undercard guys can be made in the Rumble match.

Also, does ECW even have 10 big name people? Of all the brands, they have the best shot to get midcarders iton the Rumble.

[Next Level was WRONG]

So, what number do you guys think BDJ will get?

I see The Undertaker winning it this year. Anybody else agree?

[MGH]

I could still see HHH winning it myself.

[4real]

BTW who is BDJ?

[BRV]

I got a feeling that Undertaker's gonna win, then Batista's going to turn heel sometime around No Way Out, leading to their match going into WrestleMania 23.

Also, it validates the 70,000 fans in Detroit booing the holy hell out of Batista.

If Coach can make it in two years in a row...


Also, I think that Undertaker will be in the title match, doesnt make much sense for him to be in the actual rumble.

Oh right, that fat stripper guy. Please don't let him enter.

I still think it's gonna be Batista vs. Taker at WMania, i think WWE would be silly to have it at the Rumble.

I mean let's face it, who else has got a chance of facing Batista at Mania?
