So, there have been rumors for the past 4 months that the Rumble is coming to Pittsburgh. All PPVs up to Mania 30 have been scheduled except for Royal Rumble. I am DYING to see a Rumble live, and live about 9 miles from Consol, so if they are coming, I can't miss it. But has anyone heard ANYTHING remotely confirming this?? I'm assuming if it is true, they'll announce it this Monday on Raw in Pittsburgh.

Nothing official yet, but Ring of Honor is running a show here on January 25 and their site says it will be "a royal weekend in Pittsburgh." Hmmm.
Also, January 26 is currently an open date on the Energy Center's events calendar. I'll be at Raw tomorrow and am also anticipating an official announcement.

I wonder if the impending "schedule conflict" (well, Raw being in one arena and the Pirates playoff game in another - but apparently this is a big deal) will impact their decision for having the Rumble there in January......

Yeah, my brother told me about the ROH Thing. I hope I'm not setting myself up for disappointment. I want to go to a Rumble SO BAD. |

This is what happened when Survivor Series 2012 was supposed to come to Pittsburgh. There was a Sunday Night Football game between the Steelers and Ravens, and they made the decision to go to another city. I hope that doesn't happen this time (but with the way that the Steelers are playing now, there is no way they'll still be playing January 26th. |

I am hoping it goes to Chicago for the first time ever. But I would take Indianapolis.

Even if through some bizarre set of circumstances the Steelers DID make the playoffs, a Rumble in Pittsburgh would still be safe. January 26 is the off-week between the conference championships and the Super Bowl; in fact the NFL will be in Hawaii that day for the Pro Bowl. |

I'm in Pittsburgh as well, and have really been hoping for confirmation. It's been quite a while since there's been a ppv here, and this would be the biggest show they've ever had here (although KOTR 98 turned out to be very big).

Like who is in charge of where the PPVs are going to be located? The guy running it needs to be dragged out into the middle of the street and shot for over looking Chicago as a Rumble location. I mean we have had 3 of 4 main PPVs and we haven't had a damn Rumble yet? |

IT'S OFFICIAL! I'm at Raw and the merchandise stands have little cards advertising the Rumble in the Steel City! Oh man, I'm so excited!! Any word on when tickets go on sale? Did you grab a card that you can scan?? From Prowrestling.net: WWE announced that the 2014 Royal Rumble pay-per-view will be held in Pittsburgh, Pa. at the Consol Energy Center on January 26. The pre-sale ticket event begins Wednesday using the password RUMBLE via Ticketmaster. Fans who attended Raw were able to purchase tickets afterward. Tickets to the general public go on sale on Saturday at 10:00 a.m. ET. WWE previously announced that the Elimination Chamber will be held in Minneapolis at Target Center, and WrestleMania 30 will be held in New Orleans, La. at the Superdome. |
