...to his core fanbase and show them that he's not that stubborn and blind
Similar to MITB 2011, THIS is the exact moment that Vince can influence the fate of his company
1) Becky beats Charlotte to be the last Horsewoman to win gold in WWE. What a feelgood moment!
2) New Day retain their titles. Usos, despite working hard everytime, are the epitome of stale atm
3) Ambrose and Owens are given enough time to deliver a classic
4) Kalisto somehow defeats ADR and reps Mexico and USA for rizzeal
5) Brock, Owens/Ambrose (the loser of the IC title match basically) or someone completely surprising (Bryan/Styles/Neville/Rusev) win the Rumble, Reigns is eliminated via shenanigans

Personally, I'm just going to turn my inner smark off and enjoy my favorite event of the year.

I'll likely enjoy the Rumble, but I'm not getting my hopes up on liking the end result.

The only thing Vince needs to do is to make the Royal Rumble match GOOD.
So basically, don't give Noble and Mercury the book. And don't give Road Dogg the book because the match'll end in a DQ or something.

So basically "Vince should apologise and make the guys I like win."

Whatever. Wyatts vs New Day vs League of Nations and any other teams in the Rumble will be sweet. Plus the nostalgia returns and Kevin Owens first Rumble. Might as well enjoy it no matter the end result. Can't be too mad if it goes horribly wrong since LU and NJPW are coming up.

He should apologize by finally stepping down and getting out of the way. It's time to let Prince Paul take the steak wrap throne.

As long as Kalisto beats ADR I'll be happy regardless of what else happens.

We will watch the Rumble, probably complain about it but then tune into Raw the next night. As bad as it sounds, he needs to try to appeal to the people who might just watch the Rumble and then think "I enjoyed that, I wonder what the outcome will be? I'll tune into tomorrow night to find out." |

Never had less interest in the Rumble match, and I normally love this event.
Just please give Ambrose vs Owens and Kalisto vs ADR time and we should have two great matches. Though I don't generally like Last man standing matches and the gimmick may hurt their match.

I don't think you guys realize how rare a good WWE PPV is. Last year, we probably had just 3 or 4 shows that were good top to bottom.
Oftentimes, they're just extended RAWs with one standout match. I'm really just hoping for a good PPV at this point.

Honestly this looks like the most solid card WWE's had for a Royal Rumble event in a very long time.

Was such a stupid, shitty way to get rid of them all. |

I mean, it's not like eagerly anticipating the entrance of someone not confirmed for the rumble has a history of backfiring or anything...

Am I the only one who'd be fairly happy with Roman winning, then?
