    Maybe Owens is winning but Roman wins the rumble and challenges McIntyre. :pac:

    Or Reigns challenges Goldberg

    very much looking forward to tomorrow night

    I'm assuming they don't lose the plot by having Goldberg win of course.

    That’s a shame I had a feeling they were going to use the rumble to make Lee a breakout star.

    With Braun and Belair looking strong last night on SD it means they wont be winning tomorrow night

    Hard to call a winner for both rumbles, really hope that Goldberg doesn't win the title. Happy enough for either result in the Reigns vs KO match

    You'd miss the NXT Takeover/ Worlds collide the night before. I forgot is the event in the Thunderdome or did they rent out an empty stadium ?

    Think Bianca could well get it. Last night ended the Bailey feud I think, meaning she’s good to push for the rumble

    Men’s I can’t call at all

    Thunderdome sadly. I did hope they’d do a stadium to make it stand out more and unique. But probably a logistical nightmare for them.

    Hope we don't get our usual visitor who turns up just to post the current paddy Power favourite.

    I think I'll watch this or try to. No doubt I'll regret it tomorrow, and most likely during the event as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,224 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Natalya and Tamina had a match, an atrocious match, to decide the 30 spot.

    What is the kayfabe reason for those two getting to fight for that spot? It's not like both have been on a big winning streak and this is their reward. Brainless booking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,568 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,897 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I wonder what former talent will turn up under a new gimmick name.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,255 ✭✭✭The White Wolf


    Hoping for Papa Shango myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,206 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    So what's the story with the rumble. Is it "officially live" or have wwe announced its pretaped

    Live until the 'divisive finish.'

    Parts have to be taped in order to achieve some semblance of an exciting Rumble.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,922 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    11pm pre show
    12-3- main show


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I know WWE is a dog's dinner currently and a shadow of it's former self but I always love the Rumble. Have taken tomorrow off work so will be staying up to watch it erm... 'live'. (Based on the posts above that parts were taped)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,188 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Drew Carey in 2001 was great fun in fairness. Gonna rewatch that rumble again this evening I think


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,604 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Have the Network reordered and raring to go.

    I've nearly switched completely off the product now, outside some reddit clips the day after shows.

    But it's tradition to grab a bottle of Lucozade, carve an hour out tomorrow, and enjoy the Rumble in it's entirity.

    And not watching means I'm not 100% sure who is favorite to win, etc.

    Its their chance to rope me back in too. Better be a good one :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,017 ✭✭✭Officer999


    Considering I predicted Adam Cole last year to win it and he didn’t even enter, I’ll be staying clear of trying to predict the winner this year.

    Although I do have a sneaky feeling the Fiend could return to eliminate Orton. Or maybe he returns to help Bliss win it?

    Either way, it’s going to be strange to see the 10 countdown with no fans in attendance

    Work finished,

    Pizza ordered,

    Beer in the fridge

    Next two days off.

    Watching last years Rumble to prepare myself.

    Please please WWE don't **** the bed!


  • Registered Users Posts: 679 ✭✭✭daithi1989


    The more the day goes on, and the more I think WWE are gonna complete mess up tonight, and I fear the Fiend will return and we’ll have no winner of the Rumble because of his antics... Surely it wont happen, just have a feeling....!


  • Registered Users Posts: 116 ✭✭d00mk1n


    Haven’t watched since last years rumble.

    Would have liked to see Orton looking smug until Edge coming out at #2... no surprise now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,804 ✭✭✭Sirsok


    If you are looking for something to watch before the Rumble, the Yokozuna icons doc is fecking fantastic.

    Always one of my favourites growing up.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,167 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Gonna try stay up for it tonight but not looking forward to work in the morning. At least Im wfh so just need to roll out at 8.55 and log on to attempt work:pac:

    Peyton and Billie to have a reunion as 1 & 2 in the woman's Rumble


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,604 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Match card order...

    Charlotte & Asuka vs. Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler (Kickoff)
    Goldberg vs. Drew McIntyre
    Sasha Banks vs. Carmella
    Bad Bunny’s Musical Performance
    Women’s Royal Rumble
    Kevin Owens vs. Roman Reigns
    Men’s Royal Rumble

    Kicking off the main show with Goldberg vs Drew has me worried...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,224 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Drew will blast through him in under 3 minutes is my prediction.

    I would be more worried if it was going on last, or second last in this case. Going on first I'm happy enough Drew goes over fairly quickly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,897 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Ye Drew to win in a minute.

    Then Goldberg to come out at number 29 and win the Rumble.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,922 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Were definitely getting a spot with Omos catching AJ Styles

    Thats one thing i never got in the rumble. how some are allowed out with managers/tag partners etc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,523 ✭✭✭joe123


    Hey all, I'm looking to watch the rumble tonight.

    Does the wwe network still do the free 30 days or so you have to pay now?
