They can't do good matches or promos, but they will make history doing it. I have never seen a woman as insecure about their height as Stephanie. Well, she is Vince's daughter. You can just imagine what Vince neurosis she inherited from him. I'm glad they are finally doing a Women's Rumble. But honestly I can see them using this just as a thing for Rousey if she is indeed coming to the WWE. For some reason they see Ronda vs. Charlotte as this big dream money match. Of course, that would mean Ronda going to Smackdown. I just can't see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I like how Lana not being in the Rumble because she's now a manager is completely crazy, but serious discussions about Stephanie McMahon entering the Rumble and possibly winning exists side by side with what I said and no one blinks an eye. Carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carry on. I just don't get why you're so adamant about it. She could easily be in or easily be out. It's all up in the air. The Steph stuff was people either joking or being characteristically over-the-top with their McMahon hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vgmastr Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Lana is going to be in the Mixed Match Challenge, which starts two weeks before the Rumble, so obviously WWE doesn't see her as just a manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see Nikki Cross going insane, like she's in a circle pit in the rumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Itami botching the tornado DDT stun gun he does while Corey Graves puts over how he has a ton of innovative moves and Michael Cole saying “like this” mid botch was hilarious.

HumanChessgame Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 So Cena is coming back next week. I guess it's safe to assume he's going to announce his participation in the Rumble followed by some ham handed speech about not being sure if he can overcome the odds any more or something along those lines? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph2112 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 It's not like they couldn't have the women come out and get in a big brawl week after week and then one day the GM gets sick of it and tells them all that they can fight it out in a rumble....but pro wrestling booking blah blah blah.

DreamBroken Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Enjoyed the Rollins/Jordan match. Loved the Woken Matt promo this week. Good to see the Revival back and glad to see Rhyno getting used in something for once. 8 hours ago, The Natural said: AJ Lee for @DreamBroken ; ) lol. At this point, I think I'd prefer her to Bayley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Given the weekly ratings drop in the 3rd hour, wouldn't it have made more sense to hype a McMahon coming to make a huge announcement instead of Steph randomly pulling up in a limo 2/3 way through the show?

Victator Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Anyone else notice Ambrose and Reigns were not wearing their Shield gear? Itami debuting against heavyweights was an interesting choice. It was good to see he was so over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per Meltzer - he was just given the week off Remember since the are doing RAW and Smackdown live next week (and the SDL MSG show) guys aren't home on the actual holidays so a lot of guys got to start earlier. It's why both shows had more a skeleton crew to them then normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 22 hours ago, RIPPA said: Okay - just for the sake of clarity since folks have come up with different numbers Here are the women wrestlers listed on WWE.com as of this morning (alpha by 1st name since that is how they do it) Alexa Bliss Alicia Fox Bayley Becky Lynch Brie Bella Carmella Charlotte Flair Dana Brooke Lana Liv Morgan Maria Kanellis Maryse Mickie James Naomi Natalya Nia Jax Nikki Bella Paige Ruby Riott Sarah Logan Sasha Banks Stephanie McMahon Tamina Eliminate 2 current champs (at the moment Alexa Bliss and Charlotte) and eliminate 2 women who will be in their third trimester when the PPV happens (Maria and Maryse). That is 19 but that is counting Steph and both Bellas returning. (I am assuming Becky will be back from shooting the movie before Rumble) Realistically you are starting from 17. 13 "surprises" is a fucking lot.
