Royal Rumble tomorrow night. Hopefully it's decent. Not sure who's gonna win though. I thought Cody at first but CM Punk makes a little more sense now. Maybe have Cody win at Elimination Chamber and choose Roman as his opponent to finish the story. Women's a lot of people are saying Becky which I'm fine with.

Not a single word of that lawsuit was surprising. Especially the allegation that he shit on her head. "Of course he did," I thought. 

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

I tend to agree. shocking, but not surprising. what a sick bastard.

I just looked at the Royal Rumble card and had no idea that Logan Paul won the U.S. Title. He's defending against Kevin Owens. That should be really good. I've only seen Paul's PPV matches, but they've all been shockingly good. That should be a cool match. 

I'm in a Royal Rumble pool and the numbers I got are 2, 15, and 16. Not bad draws.

I think those are the only matches he's had.

Back in the 80s, I was a big WWF fan.....one thing that always confused me was the fact that there were 2 different men's championships...the heavyweight champion, and the intercontinental champion.....could never figure out the difference!

HughFreakingDillon

haha the same thing confused the hell out of me too. then I realized one was just the "main guy title" and the other was a "future main guy title". Intercontinental literally means between 2 or more continents. haha 

Ledbetterman10

My explanation has always been that the world champion is, of course, the champion of the world. And since the IC Title was preceded by the North American championship, I’ve considered the IC champ to be the champion of North and South America. That’s contrived and ridiculous of course…but so is pro wrestling right?

yeah he beat Rey Mysterio a few months ago. This might be his first title defense, so he's probably not losing. 

Royal Rumble pool would be pretty cool. How much was it to enter like $5? 2 spot is pretty good, not sure about the mid numbers though. Also is it just for the men's RR or the women's as well?

$10 per spot and I grabbed 3. My friend puts it on every year. And yeah, it’s for both the men’s and women’s matches. Don’t sleep on 15 and 16 though. They can be good spots for a Cody Rhodes or CM Punk. Though I’ll probably get a goof like Miz or Kofi.

Vince is out

MayDay10

What a vile, disgusting thing Vince McMahon (probably) is

Ledbetterman10

I have a feeling Hogan is going to be in this. Just a hunch. But it’s in his hometown, he’s been hyping it, and it’s the 40th anniversary of Hulkamania.

Counterpoint: He’s 70.

i can see that. He ain't winning it though. Wonder what other surprise entrants we will see? Maybe Matt Cordona (aka Zach Ryder) or Andrade. Apparently Jordynne Grace (women's TNA champ) is rumored to be in it. Sasha Banks or Naomi maybe in the women's?

igotid88

If Sasha comes back will she go by her real name?

eeriepadave

no Sasha. Naomi returned though. As did liv Morgan which was nice. Jade was pretty impressive when she picked up and eliminated Nia Jax.

Cody ended up being #15 and I won $150 lol

Women's RR was better

that's pretty awesome, Congrats! Was wondering how much you won.

I agree, women's RR was better but men's wasn't too bad.The other matches were ok albeit kinda predictable. Logan winning by DQ was kinda surprising though (thought he would cheat his way to a victory).

MayDay10

I watched it.  First time I watched since last royal rumble.

Really boring.  No personality or fun in most of the wrestlers.  

I was surprised at how slow, rigid, and terrible cm punk is.  

The only ones worth a damn are Logan Paul and Dominic mysterio.  Some of the women too

Ledbetterman10

I agree that Punk looked pretty bad. Paul/Owens was definitely the highlight and I loved the creative DQ finish. Maybe a ladder match for a rematch?
