I think I'd really, really have to be done with wrestling for a while. I don't even really hate Triple H, but a guy who was past his prime 12 years ago in the title match at Mania with their young new prospect is where I draw the line.

Are they actively trying to destroy the Royal Rumble concept? Seems that way over the last view years.

A radio show about a murder trial that happened in the 90s managed to be unpredictable, and there were way more people sitting around discussing that. True, but I often feel like we're so desperate for unpredictability that we might be forgetting about the story having to make sense. Things often become predictable because it's often what makes the most logical sense. Sure, Heath Slater being WWE Champion would be f***ing awesome, but it'd be on the back of only three televised wins in the last 12 months. How does THAT make sense? I don't necessarily WANT Triple H to win the title in the Rumble and defend against Reigns at WrestleMania, but that would be a logical outcome based on the story they're telling. Of course, that's not to say that they couldn't have spent the time to build up many others as logical, credible challengers, but unpredictability for unpredictability's sake is how we end up with Russo-esque nonsense that just gives people headaches. I'd rather not need a road map just to keep track of wrestling storylines, thanks. Hey HHH only won once in the last 12 months. That means Heath Slater winning makes 3 times as much sense!

HHH & League of Nations all come in at the the end to eliminate Roman and then VINCE will be entrant #31 and win the title.

Then might as well throw the title belt into the garbage can, the credibility of the title will be killed like it happened with the ECW title in 2007. 1999 is an exception because it was a satisfying moment Vince getting revenge on HHH and he also had Austins help...

Eh, the title already has a tenuous grasp on credibility as it is. I could see them pulling this just to stick it to Roman and get the crowd more on his side. "Look Roman, the old man you embrassed took your title! I guess you're not the young lion you thought you were eh!?" Then they do some shitty program where Roman runs through the entire LoN & HHH to get a shot at Vince who bascially just takes a few bumps and loses the title without ever having defended it. Its bascially a combo of Attitude Era retread and trying to recapture the magic they failed to really capitalize on until the last minute of Bryan's road to WM.

I think they've made up their minds that stubborn hipster fans will shit on any rumble winner, so they're going out of their way to do the most intentionally frustrating ending they can think of.

Jericho wins. Becomes the new Corporate Champion. For the reactions alone, I want this. Extra kudos if Jericho is #1 and outdoes Flair's performance in 1992. But logically, it'll be Roman or Hunter.

Biggest mania of all time just around the corner HHH MUST go in as champion and have one of his undeserved and over elaborate entrances This all points to him writing his own history book and trying to make himself look like the legend he ain't
I hope Lesnar wins

Some of the people on the figure 4 board suggested the Rock could win the Rumble. It makes sense because a) gets the belt off Roman and b) Rock can only work so many dates so it allows the Rock to appear at the Rumble and work Wrestlemania. Still, if I had to bet it would be Triple H to win.

It seems to me they've been telegraphing Trips vs Roman strongly and no way Roman keeps the belt until Wrestlemania. I suppose they could do Rock or Brock, but Brock vs Roman II? Eh, besides Brock's a face right now.
