LOL, I just found out the Rumble is happening here in town. I am way out of the loop to say the least. :lol:

Supreme Olajuwon 01-27-2023 08:01 PM

Despite last year’s Rumble being absolute dog shit (Hi Shane 👋 ), the Rumble is always gonna get me so motherfucking pumped

Sepholio 01-27-2023 08:10 PM

so motherfucking pumped doesn't even begin to describe how pumped I am!

Sting Fan 01-27-2023 08:59 PM

Rumble is something I normally tune in for, dont know if I will this year.

Can you even order it as a standalone show now?

Lock Jaw 01-27-2023 09:19 PM

Going to a friend's place to watch the Rumble... but he is working so we'll be starting on a bit of a delay....

slik 01-27-2023 10:53 PM

I always love the Rumble

The most consistently entertaining WWE ppv IMO

XL 01-28-2023 03:32 AM

Re-watched the 2020 Rumble Match last night as a warm up. Excellent match.

Evil Vito 01-28-2023 09:22 AM

A little pumped sounds right. I don’t watch more than choice clips here and there and so I have little to no investment in the stories.

But it’s the goddamn Rumble. It’s hard to screw those up (lol last year) but even a bad Rumble should usually have a few moments.

#1-norm-fan 01-28-2023 12:16 PM

Pretty fucking pumped to read you guys talk about it and possibly seek it out if it sounds enjoyable.

#1-norm-fan 01-28-2023 12:18 PM

I’m also in the “Fuck WWE sucking. It’s the Rumble!” boat but I watched a couple years ago and it really did put a damper on it not having a rooting interest at all. Only real draw for me outside a love for the match itself is the surprise entrants and I feel like any cool surprise entrants have been done to death or are dead.

#1-norm-fan 01-28-2023 12:21 PM

What are the odds of Austin or Rock winning?

Give me the scuttlebutt.

Some people are speculating that the Rumble poster (seen above) is a hint at something ELECTRIFYING happening tonight

XL 01-28-2023 01:51 PM

I’m waiting for the other half of the poster to be revealed to see who everyone is facing off against…

Yes. Good ol’ Comcrap is still at it, hoping people will order it through them for $44.99 (+taxes), instead of realizing that as a customer of them they can watch it on Peacock for free. :lol::rofl:

DAMN iNATOR 01-28-2023 01:56 PM

Also, normally I’d be in the so f’n pumped category, but something about this year’s card just feels... underwhelming to me. Don’t know if it’s the lack of current stars announced for the 2 Rumbles, or that Roman/K.O. will predictably end with Roman somehow retaining or what. I will probably tune in out of sheer boredom however.

Wait, is Peacock really free with Comcast?

Yeah they are the same company lol

Mr. Nerfect 01-28-2023 02:39 PM

The Rumble has been greatly diminished. Can’t say I’ve been pumped for a Rumble in years. Doesn’t help that they do the Women’s Rumble on the same show. 2020 was a great match though.

Mr. Nerfect 01-28-2023 02:44 PM

This has to be the third Roman Reigns vs. Kevin Owens match at the Rumble, right?

lol I know they’re both owned by NBC but if you’re a Comcast customer, you get Peacock, and thus WWE events for free? That seems odd…

XL 01-28-2023 03:00 PM

Yeah. 3rd time for the title too. Pretty much a let’s get this out of the way match save for any Sami drama but I think that comes in the Rumble itself. I think HHH will deliver on a good Rumble Match. The rest I can probably pass on.

I love wrestling, but that is about 10 times more than I could ever justify spending on a single event for anything sports or entertainment.

erickman 01-28-2023 04:35 PM

yeah i agree screw ticket master they made every live show go up, still floor seats for wwe's 2nd biggest show

slik 01-28-2023 06:08 PM

My Royal Rumble predictions:

Rhea
Cody (or Sami)
Roman
Bianca
Bray Wyatt

slik 01-28-2023 06:23 PM

Match order per Fightful:

SPOILER: show


Men's Rumble
Bray vs LA Knight
Bianca vs Alexa
Women's Rumble
Roman vs KO


Lock Jaw 01-28-2023 06:47 PM

Should swap the order of the men's and women's Rumble. Maybe even put the men's Rumble on after Roman cause come on, ain't nobody caring about that match more or believing that Owens is gonna win.....

#1-norm-fan 01-28-2023 06:50 PM

Lol they gotta fuck up the ring somehow, right? That’s the only excuse to have that match last.

Evil Vito 01-28-2023 06:58 PM

I love how in a world where everyone denies they’ll be in the Rumble, Matt Cardona’s openly been teasing it all day.

Nowadays, this means everyone assumes he won’t be. Which, ironically, would make it an even bigger surprise if he was.

if that’s true, ugh. Very hard to have it not feel like a big anti-climax having things on after the Rumble

Would have to assume something big is going down

Wehttam 01-28-2023 07:12 PM

fucking stupid numbers being picked off the board

ball hopper or bust
