dragonzombie Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Brock wins. Seff or Finn wins the rumble? Or AJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSC Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I think you mean #30 - Dance break followed by someone running through R-Truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original plan was Rollins beating Lesnar at Mania (I should clarify that that is post Reigns diagnosis) So Rollins would be the winner on the RAW side AJ is the only option on the SDL side Since it seems a lock that Becky is winning the women's - Rollins seems the safer bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two most likely scenarios I've seen theorized A) Truth tries to enter the Women's Rumble (which somehow forfeits his #30 in the men's rumble) 2) Truth enters at #3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSC Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 You're a fool if you don't think we're getting a Rumble Dance Break in each one this year... If not for that, I figured the most likely would have been for him to do something during their Titan Towers vacation to get the spot stripped/get fired.

dragonzombie Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I don't think they will let Seth beat Brock at mania. Women rumble winner probably is Charlotte. They can have Asuka drop the belt before mania to Becky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again - the reported plan is Charlotte is facing Rousey at Rumble so she won't even be in the Rumble Who knows if ends up happening but that was the planned course and why Asuka was added to the TLC match so Rousey could get her singles matches with Charlotte and Becky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I'm sticking with my theory of a Ronda/Charlotte/Becky triple threat at WM. Charlotte/Becky double elimination at Royal Rumble. The men's side seems a bit trickier. Rollins, McIntyre and Styles are my early leaders. If the rumors of Vince being sour on his match with Ambrose at TLC are true, Rollins could be nudged to the side. Styles moving to Raw would give that show a stabilizing force and since Bryan is WWE champ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I'm sticking with my prediction of Seth winning the rumble and beating Brock at WM. Ambrose got the IC title so Seth can be moved onto the universal title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Sick of Brock and Brock vs. Braun matches. Both Royal Rumble matches delivered last year. The men's was the best since 2008 or 2010 I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 If this Really is a new era of Raw which I don't buy then Braun beats Brock in 5 minutes TOPS, completely destroying him in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte/Becky double elimination at Royal Rumble. That's the WrestleMania main event. Like the idea of co-winners of the Royal Rumble match, last time was in 1994 with Bret Hart and Lex Luger.

Gorman Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I thought Vince said there would never be co-winners of the Rumble again, which is why he angrily broke up the Cena-Batista situation and tore both quads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FakeWorker Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Any chance we get Meiko Satomura in the women's Rumble? Would certainly feel like a more credible threat than Kelly Kelly again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
