Ok, I can buy that idea. The 08 Rumble was definitely over as soon as the first note of "My Time Is Now" hit, whereas it wasn't a foregone conclusion that Edge was going to win. I still think though that before the event itself, "Cena is going to return and win the Rumble" was less expected than "Edge is going to return and win the Rumble."
