The Other Predictions Thread Episode 2: The Royal Rumble
Sorry about this getting in so late, but with the server messing up so much, it's hard to get in here to post this topic. Unfortunately, that doesn't give us much time to make predictions, and those of you who do get to this point may get booted before you can make any predictions. But anyway, here's the rules:
1: Anyone can join in, including tipsters. 2: Our scoring for this month will be as follows: 10 points for every correct winner of the beginning four matches. 5 points will be given for guessing how the finish goes for each of the first 4 matches. I'll only base this on "Clean (pin, etc)", "Cheating (including interferance)", "DQ", or "Submission" If you want to get more technical than that go ahead, but I won't award any more than 5 points for a correct response. The Royal Rumble match itself will be tough to call, so I'm awarding 25 points for the winner. As a bonus, pick a number between 1 and 30. If you pick the correct number of the winner, you will get some "extra credit" of 10 points. Hopefully Corndad will be able to come back to defend his title, but the server may not be so kind. Here's the card: http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_eh.jpg Adam "You screwed me worse than Bret!" Copeland vs. Shawn "Get over it!" Michaels in a "Quarter so you can call somebody who gives a damn on a pole" match. http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...heiden_000.jpg Old Turd vs. Green Turd in a "Don't eat where you shit, flush it down the casket first" match http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...iplethreat.jpg John "I haven't had a clean victory in over a year!" Layfield vs. Paul "I'm lucky I can get my fat ass to the ring!" Wight vs. Kurt "Don't expect me to carry you two through the match, I've got three fused disks!" Angle in a Fatal Four Way (including the midget Bigshow ate before the match) for the WWE Championship http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_hr.jpg Paul "Don't forget, I'm still banging the boss' daughter!" Levesque vs. Randy "Hey, my naked picture can still draw $1.35 on E-bay!" Orton in a "But if I lose the title now after getting it back just three weeks ago, it'll lose value!" match for the World Heavyweight Championship. http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...7_rr_group.jpg The Loyal Fumble with the Sharks vs. the Jets.

Edge via a quick cheat at the end. http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...heiden_000.jpg Taker. Clean victory. http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...iplethreat.jpg Show: Taking a risk here, but the odds are against him, so it makes for a better story if he beats the odds and wins the championship. http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_hr.jpg HHH via cheating (Interferance from Stacy Keibler) http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...7_rr_group.jpg Batista.

Shawn Michaels Def. Edge (I want edge to win, I really do, but I don't see it happening)
Undertaker def. Heidenrich JBL Def. Angle & Big Show Triple H Def Orton Batista @ 19th entry (I'll guess the final four: Chris benoit, Batista, John Cena & Eddie Guerrero) |
http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_eh.jpg
Edge wins via interference by Tomko and Christian http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...heiden_000.jpg Undertaker wins with a clean victory http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...iplethreat.jpg Kurt Angle wins by pinning JBL http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_hr.jpg Randy Orton wins via Interference by Stacy Keibler http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...7_rr_group.jpg Batista No.4 Final Four:Batista,Chris Benoit,Orlando Jordan,Ric Flair |

http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_eh.jpg Going with Edge by Cheating here to set up even more tension where micheals get revenge and elimates him in RR later in night http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...heiden_000.jpg Undertaker with a clean win throwing Heidy into casket http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...iplethreat.jpg As much as Id like to pick Kurt, JBL victory when the Cabinet Interfers, Big Show not involved in decision which leads to him getting Shot at No Way Out http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_hr.jpg Another Champion i dont want to defend that will. HHH by Flair interference and pin http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...7_rr_group.jpg Im saying the final 4 will be Shelton, Batista, Cena, and Beniot. A few off topic predicts Edge will be elimated by Micheals Snitsky will be elimated by Kane but will come back at end hit him with a chair and cause him to be elimated the first 2 in will be Eddie and Rey Mysterio Hass and Benjamin will help each other till one elimates the other the suprise 30th entrant will be *shudder* Brock Lesnar and the winner of this year's Rumble.... Batista I will take number 26 Hopefully I do as well as i did at NYR |
http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_eh.jpg
Edge wins, by a cheap victory, either help from the outside, or a roll of the tights http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...heiden_000.jpg Undertaker destroys hendireich throwing him in the casket and ending this feud http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...iplethreat.jpg Dont see JBl losing right now, cabinet helps jbl win http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...0117_rr_hr.jpg HHH wins, possible heel turn by stacy, or stacy costs randy the match by accident and randy turns heel by rko stacy http://www.wwe.com/shows/royal_rumbl...7_rr_group.jpg I say Batista wins, i pick number 13 |
Low Turnout this time... I blame the server messing up, rather than uninterest. Hopefully we'll have a bigger turnout for the next PPV. Anyway, Here's the results for those of us who didn't get to watch the PPV last night:
Edge vs. HBK: Edge won via using the ropes for leverage during the pin (cheating) Taker vs. Heidenreich: Taker won cleanly after a DDT, Chokeslam, and Piledriver. WWE Championship Triple Threat: JBL won after some interferance from his cabinet. (cheating) HHH vs. Orton: HHH won after a clean (sort of) pin. Royal Rumble: Batista won a restarted Rumble. He entered at 28. (That may be the closest entrant to number 30 to ever win I think) As for the winners, we've got Co-champions this time. Corndad and Astley both got 70 points. You two can argue amongst yourselves about who was closer to the victory (sorry. With so few matches on the card a tie was bound to happen..) but in my eyes, you're both champions. Reps to both of you, and don't forget about the next PPV: No Way Out. |
