I'll be ordering this too. I can only hope they continue their unpredictability through to this PPV n'all.

Yeah, I will be ordering this one as well.

I do not see Edge-Cena being anything better than average or okay. As far as SmackDown goes...my fear is that Mark Herny will be facing Kurt Angle for the World Heavyweight Championship (and I believe my fear will come true, sadly).

The Royal Rumble match itself is where the quality is at...obviously, WWE knows this.

I am pulling for RVD to win the Royal Rumble, yeah...I am going for the long shot.

Chris Benoit and Rey Mysterio are some other choices that comes to mind, however, anything short of RVD winning the Royal Rumble is going to feel disappointing. Benoit has already had his time to shine and simply put...RVD deserves it more than Mysterio does, IMHO.

Ok, this will be Edge on the Cutting Edge next week.

Edge: You see Cena, no one likes you. They boo you. Cena, you wrestle as bad as you rap.

(and then we'll see a lot of new EdgeHeads.........................damn)

 Umm, he tore both his quads, I'd imagine you'd be sitting too if you tore both your quads getting into the ring.

Yea.... that was a really bad deal.  If you look real closely at him, once his knees hit his face just turns to agony.

I never buy the PPV because I would want to get them on DVD. It cost alot cheaper compare to ordering it for like $35 or $40 bucks for the event.

1996 and 1997 were great Rumbles. But my favorite Royal Rumble match was the one in 2004. Best Rumble match in my opinion.

If you haven't watched it yet, you should check out the 1992 Royal Rumble.  It's a really good Rumble that was for the vacated WWF Title.

Well if you did vote and if it is "authentic", they'd probably accept only your first vote and block your IP from voting again.

If thats the case, I hope this will lead to Shelton winning it and a match with him vs. Haas at WM22 w/ a storyline.

I know I'm getting way ahead of myself, but imagine if CM Punk is in the WWE by the time Taboo Tuesday comes around, which is almost a certainty, and then he is picked by the fans, with strong influence by us at WWEv, to be Shelton's opponent in a Ladder Match for the IC Title. 8)

i seriously doubt WWE will give Lashley the rumble win, but the possible winners in my eyes are:

Randy Orton
Triple H
Kane
JBL
Undertaker

To Dark_Hylian:

Randy Orton: This could be good...really good, but thanks to the Undertaker and ego-maniac ways, Orton has lost almost all credibility and he would flop, if this were to happen, big time. Orton is the second most likely out of these choices, however, I do not think his chances of winning the Royal Rumble are as high as everyone says they are and obviously...I do not think he will actually win it.

Triple H: This is probably the best outcome of these choices (and the most likely, out of these choices), but than again...that is not saying much. I do not think he will actually win the Royal Rumble, but do think he is one of the more likely ones to win it.

Kane: Again, this could be good (not as good as Orton, though), that is if Kane were taken more serious and looked as "Monster". Seeing how he is not...he would flop if he were to win, big time. I seriously doubt Kane will win it. WWE clearly knows what I have previously mentioned and his chances are only slightly above chances of JBL winning it, IMHO.

JBL: Please God No!!! Besides, after his major flop in 2004/2005, I think Vince has finally realized that JBL in main event is obviously not good idea, so I doubt this one will happen...less likely out of these choices, IMHO.

Undertaker: No as bad as JBL, but not much improvement either...to say the least. Besides, Undertaker is not over enough with the fans for this to happen, but I see him being more likely than JBL and Kane, IMHO. 

Edit: I agree with you on Bobby Lashley...I do not see him winning the Royal Rumber...his chances are slim to none, IMHO. Besides, that is good thing...Lashley is being pushed too fast as it is, IMHO.

The outcome of the Cena-Edge match will go a long way in narrowing down the possibilities, IMO.

If Cena wins the Title back, then I think the Rumble will go to either Triple H or Randy Orton.  The distant third possibility, and I'd rank it as highly unlikely, would be Benoit, if he even enters the Rumble.

If Edge wins, then things become extremely unpredictable.  A face becomes much more likely to win the Rumble, from either Raw, or Smackdown.  Triple H's shot drops dramatically, from where I sit.  While Triple H vs Angle sounds very good on paper, it'd require Trips to jump to Smackdown, and there's no evidence that that is in the cards.  Orton remains a strong possibility, probably the strongest in this scenario.  The unlikely dark horses would remain Benoit and RVD would have an outside shot.  If Edge retains, though, things are really murky. 

If I were a betting man, though, I'd be putting my money on either Triple H or Randy Orton.

i would so love it if Orton won the Rumble and angle Defended. at No Way Out Benoit vs Angle for the World Heavyweight Title, whoever wins, it would b AWESOME to have against randy at WM, we are a litle sick of having Randy face Benoit but: a) They can do better at PPV's  b) no one would have to change to heel or face and c) the WWE wants a heel champion to just defend against baby faces for a while. And i doubt the WWE wants to pit Angle and Orton yet, but if they do, i hope kurt angle keeps on with his "vicious" gimmick, and randy keeps wrestling as a heel. I dont really consider anyone from the raw roster to win it, but i think the final 3 will b Orton-Triple H-RVD, leaving it to Orton and The Game.
