Been busy this week but thought I would go through my
predictions and Holy Shit (π©) projections for tonight’s Royal Rumble.
I have to say I feel underwhelmed by this card but I have
been wrong in the past and the WWE can often over deliver so we’ll see. Anyway…..
SHEAMUS V. CHAD GABLE
I grew up with a friend who had growth issues and it was
horrible. We spent hours talking about it so I’m sort of sensitive to all this.
I think Chad Gable is a tremendous wrestler but this is Vince McMahon’s WWE. Chad
will hold his own but Sheamus will prevail in a π©1/2 match.
ROMAN V. THE KING
I don’t give a shit π© match
ANDRADE CIEN ALMAS V.
BABYFACE CARRILLO
This should be one of the better matches of the night and I
hope they keep the belt on Andrade and Zelina and let Humberto continue his
journey. I think even WWE booking knows that’s the move. This should be at
least a π©π©π©π© match.
BAYLEY V. THE MARINE
I may be in the minority but I really like heel Bayley and
her partner Sasha Banks. You know at some point these two will be adversaries
and hopefully give us another classic. I don’t get the Evans face turn. It
feels fake. She feels fake. I think they give her the belt. Hope I’m wrong. I’ll
go π©
here.
BECKY V. ASUKA
It’s time for Becky to start a new journey and if there is a
God she drops the belt and they give it to the best wrestler they have. Becky
doesn’t need the belt and, if I was booking, I would get Asuka and Kairi Sane
in a program culminating at Wrestlemania. Trust me it will be unforgettable.
Assuming Shayna is coming up and Rousey returns for a bit you have Becky,
Charlotte and the two MMA women feuding in various combinations. Sadly, I think
Becky retains in a π©π©1/2 match.
FIEND V. DB
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, a gimmick WWE
Champ is bullshit. Bryan’s awesome, Bray’s OK. It will be fine and Kane will
get involved so Bray retains by DQ in a π©π©π© match. I am not looking
forward to the red.
WOMENS RUMBLE
The way they have booked this who the fuck knows. Figure
Shayna appears and maybe Rousey and then there’s Charlotte. I assume the winner
will go after the RAW belt. The fun will come from the NXT women who are the
best but I figure one of the three mentioned above will win.
Should be π©π©1/2 match.
MENS RUMBLE
Putting Brock #1 was one of the more inspired moves by, I
assume Mr. Heyman. There are two possibilities:
By some miracle Brock goes through the entire roster and
demands a unification match with the WWE Champ at Wrestlemania. Or…..
Someone eliminates Brock and goes on to win the Rumble. So,
who could it be? It can’t be Roman. It better not be Corbin. I see three
possibilities.
Randy Orton. He faced Brock once before. Bled a lot in a
short match but you know he would put on a solid match at WM.
Drew McIntyre. He’s got the size, the mike skills and can be
an excellent face.
Aleister Black. Don’t even know if he is in the Rumble but
he would be my pick. You can strap a rocket to this dude and he and Lesnar could
be an epic Wrestlemania main event. Watching him eliminate Brock would be a
stunner.
Having said all this, I think it’s Drew. There’s a lot of
talent here. I’m going π©π©π©π©1/2’s
I think that’s the card. I’ve been more excited about
Rumbles in the past. Dazzle me.
