Somehow they send a ring up there and film something wacky that everyone hates. Goldberg beats McIntyre. Cena vs Goldberg for The Raw title. Yuck. Hopefully someone on creative watches last night's Wandavision. Fiend brings Cena back from the Firefly Funhouse post-snap style after the last two guys eliminate each other. Cena stands in the ring live via satellite from Canada not knowing what happened the past twelve months. Remaining Raws to Mania are a rotating time period, till someone puts something in the wrong laundry hamper and everyone realises its just a weird manifestation of a reality designed by Cena. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 If there's disappointment with the Men's and Women's Royal Rumble match winners and let's be honest, disappointment is usually associated with WWE booking, there's still the second chance Elimination Chamber matches which tend to determine the other world title matches at WrestleMania.

dragonzombie Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) It's possible Goldberg could lose vs Drew, and face someone else at WM in a non title match. Braun added to the Men's Rumble, so 21 men so far. Edited January 30, 2021 by D.Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paintedbynumbers Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Kayfabe wise Neither Tamina or Natalya deserve number 30. This has to be a set up for Tamina to get the spot only for Ronda Roussy to attack her and enter at 30 right? I mean it's almost too fucking obvious at this point.

HumanChessgame Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 That sucks about Keith Lee, he and Bryan are my two favorites to win. 21 announced for the men's rumble and only 13 announced for the women's. I wonder if there are people they're holding off on to confirm they're covid negative or if it's just being constantly rewritten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steventon Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Women's #30 is a real fart as well This may be a #HotTake, but they really don't have enough female talent to do a full 30 women Royal Rumble. Every year they are going to be padded out with NXT girls and 'legends'. Rather than try to run a female version of all their big gimmicks for gender parity I'd much rather them come up with a fresh, unique gimmick that they could give to the women. 2 Rumbles on 1 show is so bloated and kind of tiring to watch. Ditto for the Chambers and WarGames. Would rather them do a yearly Evolution PPV with something new and original on it.

I wonder if there are people they're holding off on to confirm they're covid negative or if it's just being constantly rewritten. They do this every year with the women's Rumble. As mentioned - it seems as if they don't want to expose how small the main roster is Per the WWE website Spoiler Alexa Bliss Asuka Charlotte Flair Dana Brooke Lacey Evans Lana Mandy Rose Naomi Nia Jax Nikki Cross Peyton Royce Shayna Baszler Bayley Bianca Belair Billie Kay Carmella Liv Morgan Natayla Ruby Riott Sasha Banks Tamina So 21 - and that is needing the champs and their challengers to work twice It gets to 23 if you include Maryse and Mickie James - who have I zero idea what their status would be. 24 if you include Becky Lynch - who would be returning less than 2 months after having her child. (I didn't include Mia Yim obviously since we know she can't be in it now). But yeah... at least 9 spots that will have to be filled by debuting folks (Rhea Ripley for example), NXT (where they have been adamant about keeping the rosters separate due to COVID), NXT UK (travel issues due to COVID) and surprises (Rhonda, The Bella Twins who basically just claimed they are unretired) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Royal Rumble is my second favourite WWE PPV behind WrestleMania. I'm not sure I'll be watching live yet as its frustrating when a) the Royal Rumble match isn't up to standards although we've had some great recent ones, b) someone wins it who you didn't want to as happened last year with Charlotte Flair, c) Goldberg beating Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship and d) giving up sleep for it as the show goes out midnight till usually 4am Monday morning UK time and I like chatting with y'all about it afterwards.

Casey Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 @RIPPA I'm pretty sure Chelsea Green is either cleared to return, or is about to be, so there's that too. Also, yeah, I was snarky in my earlier comment about this, but seriously - if they just committed to NXT being an actual third brand, then having members of the women's division in the Rumble wouldn't be nearly as big of a deal as we're making it out to be.
