Lol, if the Rumble was in Feb, Marc Mero would have won it at least once. Kofi would still be waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I legitimately thought the Colons asked for and received their release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Yes - he asked for his release and they gave it to him because his deal was up in like April and he pretty much told them he wasn't coming back. Dave is saying the Roode challenger is a "big surprise" so Lashley would qualify. Also - someone else mentioned it already but apparently there is a lot of chatter that the women's match will close 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kronos Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 That wouldn't be the first time the Rumble wasn't the show closer. But it needs to be. If nothing else, when you know there are more matches to come, you don't feel that anything-can-happen excitement during the Rumble match. You know it has to end sooner than later.

hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I would like to think that the reason the womens match is the main event of Rumble is because Ronda Rousey is showing up. But I don't know. I will glad when we get to the point where every women's stipulation match won't be treated like it has to be a main event because it is the first While Lashley vs Roode will be much better than Lashley vs Lesnar and 100 times better than Roode vs Ziggler, it seems like a serious let down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Also - not having the Men's Rumble as the Main Event does allow them to do a "lesser" winner since that isn't what would close the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieMueller Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Ok that's what I thought. I mean, I assumed one or both would enter but hadn't heard anything on air about it. Someone should have told Charlotte. When asked who she hopes wins and challenges her she said "I hope Nikki Bella wins, you know I was the last Divas champion so...."

The Green Meanie Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 So is the pre-show being shown on anything other then the network?
