[James Steele]

I'd mark out if they busted out that intro for tonight.

[Innovator]

I want Vince to run down every superstar in the Rumble in that voice

[James Steele]

JOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHN CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[James Steele]

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD MAAAAAAAAAAAAADOXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I know it's cliché to say, but I really am feeling a Cena win tonight. It's been a long time since there was a multiple time winner, and of the guys that have won it multiple times (Hogan, HBK, Austin), Cena seems to be the only guy that they'd want to be in the same company as them when promoting future Rumbles.

I don't think Cena NEEDS to win, because he's one of the few guys on the roster who can simply be plugged into the WWE Title match at WrestleMania regardless because he's John Cena. But they really haven't hyped anybody else up as a favorite.</font>

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

After Cena's boring ass promo from last Monday all their plans for him winning should have been shelved.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>If somebody else does win the Rumble by some chance, Orton or Ziggler or somebody, the winner will surely be going for the World Heavyweight Title at WM again. Cena going for the WWE Title is a foregone conclusion, it's just a matter of how they choose to get to that point.</font>

[James Steele]

Boring wasn't the word I would have used, but it is much more "family friendly" than the word I would have used.

[whiteyford]

Still want them to just have a random wtf winner, just something they can cast up when they go on about how how anyone can win it. Bo Dallas for example.

[whiteyford]

Or Kofi/Wade/someone realistic.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

One of the Uso's or Darren Young or someone should win it, make it a random member of a tag team.

[Team Sheep]

This is exactly how I feel too, unfortunately. I can't really see a surprise winner tonight. Unless it's maybe The Rock after losing to Punk.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I want something weird Alberto Del Rio enters the Rumble, but somehow gets knocked out cold. Ziggler runs his ass down with another ref during the rumble and we have a new World Champion during the actual Royal Rumble.

[XCaliber]

Or Kofi/Wade/someone realistic.

I'd be down with Punk vs Kofi or Barrett vs Del Rio but neither of those matches would be considered much of a draw at least not this year.

[Arrogance]

This is a weird Rumble.

1. Everyone seems to think Punk is going to drop the title to the Rock...but if its going to be Punk/Rock at mania, it would be heel chasing the face? Maybe Cena wins the rumble and its Cena/Rock, but where does Punk go after that? Surely they wouldn't waste the Rumble win on a heel opponent for a limpdick match with Del Rio.

2. If Cena doesn't win the Rumble, who else makes sense? Ziggler has the briefcase, so no. Barrett, IC Champ, no. Ryback maybe, but I don't think he's ready to headline Mania. Won't be the Miz. Won't be Sheamus. Strangely it seems like Kane or Daniel Bryan could make sense, but that would mean probably dropping the titles earlier in the night. Or Team Hell No break up for a match at the next PPV.

Hate to say it, but all signs seem to point to a Cena win. You could argue Orton, but why...it just doesn't make much sense. I know they have time to get shit sorted, but it seems like a fucking mess.

Edit - Maybe this is the year Taker wins it as a surprise entrant and we get Streak vs. Title as the main event. That's a Mania caliber main event. I also forgot about Brock Lesnar...big possibility.

[whiteyford]

I'd be down with Punk vs Kofi or Barrett vs Del Rio but neither of those matches would be considered much of a draw at least not this year.

They don't really need to be, you've got Lesnar/Rock/Maybe 'Taker in three headline matches to draw interest, plus 2/3 months to really push the winner before 'Mania.

[Team Sheep]

Yeah I don't think the Rumble winner is as prestigious as it once was. The last two winners opened Wrestlemania. To be honest when it comes to the World title then the Rumble winner could easily be an average mid carder. They seem to throw that belt on anybody with a bit of momentum these days.

[Corndad]

Favorite Match of the Year. Period. Freakin love the Rumble. It and Mania will be the two PPVs I guarantee buy every year. Just are. I'm hoping for a Punk win because means a few things including Cena probably won't win Rumble and the Long Reign of Punk continues.

That being said the logic side of me says... Rock wins, Cena wins, Rematch at Mania and I throw up in my mouth.

Hope they put Dolph over strong. Kane should reassert a Rumble dominance tonight as well although I'm sure most eliminations will be done by Ryback.

[Arrogance]

There will probably be a "Ryback eliminates two/three people at once" spot.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I can see The Shield running into the ring as soon as Ryback enters and either throwing him out or distracting him long enough for a heel to get the cheap elimination.</font>

[KyleEmmott]

I still can't make a prediction for the Rock/Punk match

[Next Big Thing]

I haven't watched wrasslin in so long, but perusing this forum has me excited for the Rumble.

[Beth Phoenix Fan]

really looking foward for this Royal Rumble tonight.

Looking forward to the surprise entrants

[Innovator]

CM Punk ‏@CMPunk
I'm paying 1000 American dollars to every person in the rumble, every time they point at the sign.

[Rock Bottom]

Rumble. Cool. I don't really like battle royals, but this is at least entertaining.

[Rock Bottom]

My favorite thing about the Royal Rumble was playing old wrestling video games. Some of the AI in those games were stupid as fuck and winning the RR was mad easy.

[Emperor Smeat]

CM Punk ‏@CMPunk
I'm paying 1000 American dollars to every person in the rumble, every time they point at the sign.

Sin Cara must be pissed he's not in it this year.

[Bad News Gertner]

I think it's Heath Slater's to lose to this year

[Brigstocke]

I just moved house and don't have SKY yet, Somebody link me to a stream.....I will pay in kind with sexual favours and my virgin bumhole.

[mike adamle]

Can't wait for the ppv. Sadly my directv is messed up so I'll be waiting until after it's over to download a torrent. Hoping Punk wins. Hoping Lesnar enters the rumble and is eliminated by Cena setting up a rematch at Mania between the two. Hoping Taker wins the Rumble in a surprise tonight. Hoping for Jericho to return tonight. Not gonna be disappointed if none of these things happen though, I'm probably gonna enjoy whatever they throw at me.

[mike adamle]

Would be real cool if the last 4 in the Rumble were Cena, Taker, Lesnar, and Dolph Ziggler. Dolph looks like a fucking champ in there with those 3.

[Schlomey]

Currently watching the 2010 Rumble to get myself in the mood. Still debating whether to watch via stream and chat live or wait until tomorrow and get a high quality rip. I feel guilty not buying but I couldn't get anyone to go in with me :(

[Brigstocke]

Typical Jew Moves there Schlomey...

[mike adamle]

Yeah you stuck up Jew.

Anyways, really hoping Cesaro keeps the momentum and retains. Same with Hell No, just because I know if Team Hell No are still champs come WrestleMania we won't be seeing Kane in a throw away singles match.

[Schlomey]

Ya I know and I feel guilty about it.

[Brigstocke]

I hope A Broch rains down on you Schlomey....

[Schlomey]

Fun Fact: Not all Jews are made of money.

[Brigstocke]

All the good Kosher ones are....

[mike adamle]

All Jews are rich you filthy liar

[Emperor Smeat]

Except Paul Heyman

[Bad News Gertner]

Fun Fact: Not all Jews are made of money.

Oooook next thing you're gonna tell me is that not all blacks have bad. Credit

[Keith]

I don't exactly know why, but I'm so pumped up for this Royal Rumble!

[mike adamle]

I'm hoping to see these names back in the Royal Rumble: Rey Mysterio, Sin Cara, Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, and Chris Jericho. I'm not expecting all of them, very hopeful though.

[Keith]

I'm thinking you're going to be disappointed, friend.

[Lock Jaw]

I'm hoping to see these names back: Christian, Jack Swagger, Sin Cara. :shifty:

[Triple Naitch]

Watching 2011 in preparation

[Volare]

Time to mark out tonight.

[Keith]

Just in case, I don't know:

[Theo Dious]

In the time honored tradition of predicting Royal Rumbles via video games, I have done just that to forecast this years contest.

Unfortunately all I had available was Royal Rumble for SNES, therefore it seems the victor will be Crush after eliminating Randy Savage.

[Krimzon7]

this should be fun as hell tonight.

<font color=goldenrod>Hmm, seems like a good idea. Might have to do that before the show starts.</font>

[MissShai]

Are one of you fine gentlemen gonna hook a lady up with a stream tonight?

[Beth Phoenix Fan]

If only wade barrett wasn't joking about Papa Shango.

Imagine A Papa Shango/Boogeyman face-off and 3mB. slater getting the worms and mahal and mcintyre getting cursed.

[Brigstocke]

Are one of you fine gentlemen gonna hook a lady up with a stream tonight?

I'll hook you up........To my penis, and I won't stop until your knees are trembling and your neighbours know my name.

[loopydate]

Okay, posted in The Stream group (does anyone look in there anymore?), but I'll ask here as well. Who's got a stream for the 49th-place finisher in TPWW Give A Little, Take A Little?

[MissShai]

So let make sure i have this straight punk is gonna drop the belt to the rock cena wins the rumble rematch at mania cena wins at mania? thats the wwe's grand plan?

[MissShai]

I'll hook you up........To my penis, and I won't stop until your knees are trembling and your neighbours know my name.

This actually made me laugh but i doubt you could make me scream buddy i'll just take the stream thanks though

[mike adamle]

Would be real cool if someone like Seth Rollins or Dean Ambrose was number 2 with Dolph and lasted awhile (until 30.) Great way to say show the WWE Universe that they belong.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Hoping for a lack of mongs in this thread tonight please.

[Brigstocke]

You clearly havn't seen my snuff video's...

[mike adamle]

Real excited for this ppv. Sadly you guys are gonna have to deal without having mike adamle on the forums until I watch this show sometime tomorrow. I'm gonna be happy if everything I expect to happen happens (Cena winning the rumble, Rock winning the belt.) Really hoping for some surprises though. Road to WrestleMania is awesome.

[loopydate]

Very excited. First PPV I'm watching live since Mania.

[James Steele]

I'm going to leave some mongs on your face.

[James Steele]

I'm talking about semen spurting out of penis, by the way.

[James Steele]

[James Steele]

Kinda like the 49ers did to your beloved falcons.

I left a sticky mong on your dads face. (call that not wrestling related if you like, it was my finishing move at the time and he kicked out at two and a half)

[Krimzon7]

I'll pull a log of shit out of your ass alright.

Grab the suntan lotion...:naughty:

So, does anyone think The Rock will lose tonight? That would be a bit of a disappointment for a lot of us, no?

Trying to keep my huge eROCKtion under control for long enough to say that I think Punk should retain. As huge of Rock mark that I am, the longer he retains, the further it builds his persona and people will tune in week after week to see him lose it. He should hold it for another year.

However, I might cry if The Rock wins. Tears of joy, mind you. And...semen.

[loopydate]

So, does anyone think The Rock will lose tonight? That would be a bit of a disappointment for a lot of us, no?

I actually do. I think Maddox gets involved and we get Punk/Rock/Cena at Mania.

Don't really care who wins out of Rock and Punk, myself. Love both, crowd should be great for it, and it should be a pretty swell match with or without shenanigan endings.

If The Rock loses, a lot of fans will feel they got ripped off. That's the same way they felt when Ryback lost (thanks to Maddox) at HIAC. On the other hand, Cena winning the Royal Rumble match and the Rock winning the title is just too obvious and probably won't happen. Right?

[James Steele]

That is a photostory of Vince McMahon getting raped in jail by Nailz, by the way.

Vince did make some friends in jail though:

<font color=goldenrod>Here are the results for the 2013 Royal Rumble according to my copy of WWE 13:

Entry Order:
1. Mystery entrant JBL
2. Antonio Cesaro
3. Sheamus
4. Brodus Clay
5. Kofi Kingston
6. Wade Barrett
7. The returning Rey Mysterio
8. Darren Young
9. Drew McIntyre
10. The Great Khali
11. Zack Ryder
12. Damien Sandow
13. Dolph Ziggler
14. Jinder Mahal
15. Dean Ambrose
16. Kane
17. Titus O'Neil
18. Roman Reigns
19. Daniel Bryan
20. Bo Dallas
21. Tensai
22. The returning Mark Henry
23. Ryback
24. The Miz
25. Cody Rhodes
26. Heath Slater
27. Mystery entrant Road Dogg
28. Seth Rollins
29. Mystery entrant Billy Gunn
30. John Cena

Elimination Order:
1. JBL (Cesaro & Sheamus)
2. Antonio Cesaro (Sheamus [2])
3. Brodus Clay (Sheamus [3])
4. Sheamus (Kingston)
5. Rey Mysterio (Young)
6. Darren Young (Barrett)
7. The Great Khali (McIntyre)
8. Kofi Kingston (Ryder)
9. Wade Barrett (McIntyre [2])
10. Drew McIntyre (Ryder [2])
11. Zack Ryder (Ziggler)
12. Dolph Ziggler (Sandow)
13. Jinder Mahal (Sandow [2])
14. Roman Reigns (Ambrose)
15. Dean Ambrose (Sandow [3])
16. Titus O'Neil (Kane)
17. Bo Dallas (Bryan)
18. Damien Sandow (Kane [2])
19. Kane (Tensai)
20. Mark Henry (Tensai [2])
21. The Miz (Tensai [3])
22. Daniel Bryan (Ryback)
23. Cody Rhodes (Tensai [4])
24. Tensai (Slater)
25. Road Dogg (Ryback [2])
26. Ryback (Slater [2])
27. Heath Slater (Cena)
28. Seth Rollins (Gunn)
29. John Cena (Gunn [2])

So Ziggler having to start the match gets scrapped, Orton doesn't enter the match for whatever reason, The Shield turn on each other, Tensai gets a renewed push as a badass, Heath Slater eliminates Tensai and Ryback on his own, and Billy Gunn is going to WrestleMania.

Sounds about right.</font>

Billy Gunn going to Wrestlemania against Rock would be splendid. Revenge for slowing down his huge push in like 99 or whenever.

[Providence Peep]

What do you guys think of Renee Young?

[James Diesel]

If there isn't a stream in the group anyone wanna PM me a decent one?

[Malfeitor]

Anyone got a stream? I'd appreciate it.

[Outsider]

Is the pre-show being shown on Sky Sports?

My prediction is that staying up till 4am will be a mistake, and I'll spend all day tomorrow feeling like shit.

Or I'll fall asleep during the Diva's match.

[Keith]

This James Steele fella posts some good ish.

[Droford]

Who will be going to wrestlemania with Droford!??! Lets find out in the next 200 minutes

[Tommy Gunn]

Looking for streams, likely gonna be bailing on classes tomorrow at Uni to stay up for this.

She's cool her real name is Renee Paquette not a trained diva though I know her from a Toronto based sports channel called The Score she used to do a show that followed Raw & Smackdown called Aftermath which also featured ex WWE referee Jimmy Korderas whom btw is also Canadian.

[el bobbo]

The official theme song by The Heavy is actually not that bad. And I'm not even being ironic here.

[James Diesel]

lawl, preshow froze

[Droford]

You would think they would air the preshow on the PPV channel as well and not the crappy recap show they air the whole day on repeat

[Providence Peep]

Is the pre-show live?

[James Steele]

Why don't they show the pre-show on the PPV pre-show?

[James Steele]

Keith, 2013 is the year of James Emmitt Steele.

[James Diesel]

So Kane needs 4 eliminations to tie HBK. 5 for the record

[James Steele]

The main reason I miss Sunday Night HeAT is because of the hour before the PPV shows.

[James Steele]

For example, at Survivor Series 02, WWE refused to show the elimination chamber on Heat. Brilliant. You never saw what the chamber actually looked like unless you ordered the PPV. Survivor Series 02 was an awesome PPV to boot.

[loopydate]

lawl, preshow froze

The YouTube stream is down, but the one on WWE.com is working great for me.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

The All American Boy Antonio Cesaro.

[Droford]

I actually ordered the PPV. Gonna regret it I know.

[James Steele]

Christian winning the Light Heavyweight Championship in his debut match on HeAT before Unforgiven 98 or something like that.

[Tommy Gunn]

SmackyourTV streamers, how do you enlarge the video player? It isn't letting me do maximize or change volume etc.

[Outsider]

Brilliant, Sky showing hype for the Rumble, but not the preshow. Dumb

[James Diesel]

Set looks kinda lazy. Hope they have something to make up for it

[James Diesel]

Like the Rumble match

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Who's on commentary with Striker on this pre-show?

[James Steele]

"El Gringo Loco" Grande Mostrar

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The set is awesome.</font>

[Ermaximus]

I will rep for a solid stream.

[James Steele]

Set looks kinda lazy. Hope they have something to make up for it

I haven't liked it since they went HD. They basically all look the same except for WrestleMania.

[James Steele]

:lol:

The hype show completely cut Cena's promo from RAW except for the "I'm going to win the Royal Rumble!".

[James Diesel]

Who's on commentary with Striker on this pre-show?

Tony Dawson

[James Steele]

Titus O'Neal has potential to be the next Sid Vicious.

[Razzamajazz]

not a big fan of the crowd lighting

[James Diesel]

I haven't liked it since they went HD. They basically all look the same except for WrestleMania.

To be fair, I guess I couldn't see the whole set cause Antonio's entrance didn't have all the electronics on. But now I see it, it looks alright. Still lazy

[James Steele]

He has charisma and intensity and everything out of the ass, but his promos border on Ultimate Warrior levels but much more comedic.

[Outsider]

Crowd seem lively, which is a good sign.

[Razzamajazz]

cesaro move out of the way
"what a reversal!"

what is this wwe 13?

[James Diesel]

What the fuck was Miz trying on the landing?

[Razzamajazz]

miz does a schoolboy rollup
"a reversal for the win!"

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Antonio Cesarrrrrrrrrrrro!!!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Dawson is pissing me off with his constant "FOR THE WIN!!!" shit.</font>

[James Diesel]

Alright, full points on Tipsters for that one. Let's keep up the good work

[MissShai]

I will trade sexual favors for a stream pretty please or rep whichever

[Krimzon7]

I will rep for a solid stream.

[Keith]

[Outsider]

I planned to watch this with the Cat, but it hates me and keeps running away.

Fuck you Cat.

[James Steele]

Sweet intro video.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Gonna blirt all over my bed if Billy Gunn enters the rumble.

[Droford]

Last Man Standing First

[RVDmark]

I know we aren't meant to ask for streams. So I'll just say that I would hate it if my Rep or PM's ended up with a stream in it. :shifty:

[loopydate]

"...and it is for the World Pay-Per-View Curtain-Jerking Championship!"

[James Diesel]

WHC to start. Nice

[Krimzon7]

last man standing!!!!!!!!! time to order my pizza! :)

[Tazz Dan]

Ziggler's cashing in, and then winning the rumble as champion!

[Keith]

Wow, WHC match to kick things off. Awesome.

[SammyG]

lol, WHC to start. That title means so much.

[James Steele]

If I were either man, I'd avoid the announcer's table.

[Outsider]

I hate the World Title being used to open PPVs.

Also, I hate quiche, but that is unrelated.

[Providence Peep]

When was the last time the WHC actually meant something?

[James Steele]

lol, WHC to start. That title means so much.

Should have never taken it off Triple H. He should have been our modern day Bruno Sammartino.

[Ermaximus]

Fuck these damned updates needed for player a or b. Just let me watch the shit without having to download some gay ass search bar I plan to never fucking use.

[Droford]

Ziggler's cashing in, and then winning the rumble as champion!

If he wins as champion he should get to pick who he gets to face at WM.

[James Steele]

When was the last time the WHC actually meant something?

Triple H/Batista feud.

[James Diesel]

BRET SIGHTING!!!

[el bobbo]

Bret the Fucking Hitman Hart. What a great way to get a face pop for Del Rio

[loopydate]

Holy God, Bret Hart looks like crap.

[James Steele]

Holy shit, awesome cameo from the start.

[Outsider]

....Mexican Bret Hart?

Right.

[Droford]

Mexican Bret Hart

[Corporate CockSnogger]

About time Hart tied his hair back. Usually looks like a smelly hobo.

[Keith]

Canadian Alberto Del Rio

[James Steele]

Mexican Bret Hart...not quite.

[Savio]

bret will win the rumble

[Tazz Dan]

Yesssss!!!! The glasses

[Droford]

lol the shades

[Theo Dious]

Triple H/Batista feud.

Come on, Undertaker/Edge and Undertaker/Batista.

[loopydate]

Nice moment with the glasses.

[James Steele]

:lol:

Ricardo in the pink glasses.

[Theo Dious]

Man, is Bret aging 5 years for every 1?

[VSG]

That was fucking AWESOME!

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Ricardo getting the shades.

[Nicky Fives]

Bret is now the Ric Flair for Del Rio? great spot with Ricky wanting the glasses though.....

[Tazz Dan]

If he wins as champion he should get to pick who he gets to face at WM.

Isn't that normally how it work anyway?

[James Steele]

Jesus, have the entrance already. Bush league ass champion we have.

[Droford]

lack of a car blows my tipsters prediction

[Ermaximus]

Still not sure how to feel about face Del Rio.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Seriously I'm loving this set. Hopefully everybody's got a customized nameplate.</font>

[loopydate]

He's always called himself "The Pride of Mexico," Michael. That's what el orgullo de Mexico means.

[James Steele]

Was that old man in the corner of that crowd shot Dick Cheney?

[James Diesel]

Hey, we said there'd be a car for the finish. There'll be a fucking car!!!!

[Outsider]

A bucket with a towel in?

Possible end right there. But would be dumb to take the belt off ADR that quick.

Then again, this is the WWE....

[Droford]

Isn't that normally how it work anyway?

The rumble winner usually only has two choices..he'd have a ton. He should choose the Brooklyn Brawler.

[Tazz Dan]

Lesnar Fan!

[Ermaximus]

I'd piss myself laughing if JBL legit beat the shit outta ADR tonight for "steaming his gimmick."

[Savio]

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Did Bret really refer to the Big Show as a "Big Tub of Goo?"

Really?

Also, for some reason, I have high hopes for this match.

[James Steele]

The set just looks like a fancier version of the NXT set.

[Tazz Dan]

The rumble winner usually only has two choices..he'd have a ton. He should choose the Brooklyn Brawler.

Ah, you meant who gets to challenge him. I read it the other way.

[Droford]

this should have been I quit with the gimmick that Del Rio saying I quit in spanish doesnt count and he refuses to speak english all of a sudden

[Tazz Dan]

James, I love you, but I'll ban your ass if you keep this negativity up :mad:

[Tazz Dan]

Nah, jk :love:

[SammyG]

I do not like face Del Rio

[MIZantine Empire]

Hello fellow tpww-ers.. Posting from the rumble.. Just thought I would say hi! I'm front row stage right by the tron!

[loopydate]

Rough Ryder!

[SammyG]

.. and you're posting on tpww? fuck is wrong with you? watch the match.

[Krimzon7]

I'd piss myself laughing if JBL legit beat the shit outta ADR tonight for "steaming his gimmick."

that would be awesome!

[Droford]

Im probably going to post from Wrestlemania.

[Nicky Fives]

I much prefer face Del Rio over face Miz.....

[Fox]

Pretty amazing that Big Show can take a huricanrana.
