The 2 hour kickoff show to the 4 hour show begins in less than half an hour!!!

Not sure I will be able to handle 6 hours but will prob tune in for the last hour of the Kickoff Show at some point.

PPV itself should be really good.

Hoping The Miz wins, probably going to be Goldberg.

A lot of sign-pointing begins tonight

Surprise entrants: HBK ( seems obvious ), Kurt Angle Jake The Snake and DDP, Kevin Nash.

Is that the RAW set or is it different? I can't tell.

Jerry and HBK I sold!

This guy has more energy than that new chick from nxt last night

Yours truly will be right here at TPWW during the Royal Rumble.

Please wait until after the show ends for autographs.

Wait. This is starting now and is on for 6 hours? I thought I still had like 3 more hours until it started. Weird.

This is just the 2 hour pre-show....has like 3 matches on it. The real show starts in under 2 hours.

not gonna lie, i just want to jake DDT some people.

HBK admitting he was a dick

*runs in throws you over the top*

I'm watching Bobby Roode vs Shinsuke Nakamura because they both have sweet entrances.

wait, what the fuck, why are both brock and goldberg in the royal rumble?

thought they were supposed to fight eachother.

Ugh Bayley

Wrestlemania

RP, how does HBK seem obvious?

i thought he was ted nugent now.

Funny they don't even qualify Charlotte being undefeated on PPV as being in title matches because I saw Bayley best Charlotte in a tag match at Battleground...

WWE should just cut down the pre-show after the fact to just the matches.

He looks crosseyed for sure.

Every 2 minutes

Lets see if that holds

Undertaker will take the entire 2 minutes to get down that ramp..who ever is next might pass him

Willl JBL show us his porn interests again?

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvvve

it'll be long over by the time he gets to the ring.

No Speakers on this computer at work so enjoy everybody else!

It's time to Rumble! It's time for the ROYAL RUMBLE!

A lot of people seem to have forgot the Rumble

It's early.

If you didn't read that as Vince you suck

Of Course I did DAMMMNIT! SAY IT! SAY IT MICK!

I got 71 pts on my post in Squared circle about the Miz coming out to Flight of the Valkyries so I really really want that to happen

1...Don't like Mickie James' attire
2...Why do they put their own adverts in the middle of their own matches on their own network!?
3...Naomi was pretty impressive there

*DING-DING-DING*

if only he came out to the Final countdown, with a dragon cape, to get under bryan's skin. Only people who watched his Ring of Honor work will get this.

Always tell myself I am fine sith Reigns being the top guy but then I hear him talk I want him gone. Like, not goNE to to the mid card but gone from.the WWE. Arg. Kevin Owens is such a mid card act too.

you got 71 points?
