Question about the RR

**addy2hotty** · 12-14-2003, 06:10 PM

Didn't they announce a few months ago that the winner of the Rumble would no longer get a shot at WM, but at the next PPV?

**Bad Guy** · 12-14-2003, 06:11 PM

Did they? That would suck; it would be breaking years of tradition.

**Head** · 12-14-2003, 06:19 PM

Not that I can remember.

Its not like the WWE to make storyline related announcments months in advance anyway.

Wouldn't suprise me if they are planning on doing it though.

I never heard that.

I dont see why they wouldn't do what they did last year; have 15 guys from each brand and say 'the winner gets a title shot at their brands' champion at Mania'. Hopefully this year that also means that match actually gets to be the main event.

Think it was just a storyboard er...story. Wasn't announced in-show, so to speak.

**The_Firestorm** · 12-14-2003, 06:22 PM

They'll probably do it that way though for the winner he'll get a shot at his respective show's next PPV

Last year they had the Rumble with the split, Brock won.

I recall seeing someone write an angle on these boards that had an angle similar to that.

I guess we will know soon. Since it is the next PPV

I don't think that was ever announced. It's the winner of the Royal Rumble gets a title shot in his respective brand at Wrestlemania. If a SD! wrestler wins, he gets a shot at whoever is the WWE Champ by then. if a Raw wrestler wins, he gets a shot at Triple H.
