WWE announced the match online on a news drop day Less build or promo package then any match on the card Not even a token level of "she's a tret" from commentators nor a token beatdown of her opponent to show a violent streak
Sure it could just be Vince/WWE being lazy,but maybe just maybe they are rope a doping us and the inevitable Becky/Ronda/Charlotte 3way is not happening. Right now it's hard to think of a bigger underdog in WWE History in a high profile ppv match. Maybe SD Jones vs KKB , KO vs Goldberg , or anyone vs Cena in an I Quit match

Jinder beating Orton might still be more WTF, but no, I think Ruby would take it, given at least Ronda has a Mania match coming.

Jinder beating Orton might still be more WTF. Orton was already in the veteran job to a "new star" phase though ala a slightly more interesting Big Show/Kane. Him losing to anyone in the last 3 year's isn't much of an upset

If she ends Ronda streak, it will be the most shocking moment since Lesnar defeating Taker at Mania,

This would be a big blow to my interest in the WM match and I like Ruby a lot. I hope she at least has a good showing that opens some eyes in the back.

For a WWE world title? Probably. I say that because the Raw Women's Title is in the middle of this Becky/Ronda/Charlotte thing. Ruby randomly winning it while it's the focus of the biggest program in this company right now would be some Deebo shit lol.

I'm pretty sure that Ruby will be made to look pretty competitive before she inevitably loses. If I remember Ronda gave her quite a bit in their Raw match a few months ago. My problem is how little they've done to build Ruby up going into this title match mainly with her just coming off losing a feud to Natalya. How can anyone buy her as any kind of threat to Ronda when she can't Natalya? Having her beat Nikki Cross on the go home Raw wasn't enough and just felt rushed and tacked on like "oh yeah she has a title match on the PPV next week, I guess we better her give her a win".

That would be literally throwing money away.

The likelyhood of Becky interference raises RRs chances from 1 to 2%. I can't think of a wrestling shock that would come close we'd have to delve into other sports (42/1 James Buster Douglas) to come close.

They should add Ruby to the three way and make it a four way. Why not at this point?

Biggest upset was probably Ivan Koloff beating Bruno for the title, or on the women's side, Wendi Richter ending Moolah's 28-year championship run.

You know what, I said this about Jinder and I'll say it here. I want to see Ruby win just to see the world go into total chaos.

I love Ruby a lot, but this would be a bigger upset than Leicester City if she won the title on Sunday.

Who's the better wrestler these days? Still Jinder. The Arquette thing is stupid, but with the convoluted match stipulation, I'd have probably guessed it'd happen if I hadn't tapped out by then. That, and the WCW title was already pretty trashy in terms of prestige, changing hands ludicrously often.

I have more chance of winning that match, and I’m not a wrestler, not a woman and Ronda could kick my ass.
