and doesn't have to deal with Umaga.

god forbid he sees his cousin!

and its pronounced umanga!

Ok do we have any early predictions for the Royal Rumble Winner?

I'm hoping its not Taker or Batista.

but who does that leave? the only people i can see winning it are Flair, MVP, Kennedy, a returning lashley or god forbid Hornswoggle or HBK.

Just cant think of definate winner this year. Usually its pretty obvious.

Maybe my mind is forgetting someone.

[sweet616]

bob lashley perhaps?

[Hammy]

Taker

Batista

Triple H (Come on, we ALL know he'll find a way into the match!)

[slash666]

Taker

Batista

Triple H (Come on, we ALL know he'll find a way into the match!)

yep those are pretty much my guesses for this aswell

[Gnrfan]

Taker

Batista

Triple H (Come on, we ALL know he'll find a way into the match!)

I really hope its not Batista or Taker . . i wouldn't mind HHH but i find it hard to see how he can get in the match now. and i really would have preferred a HHH vs Cena rematch. From what i understand there is gonna be a RAW elimination chamber match at No Way Out so i can see HHH winning that for a title shot. That match could be awesome HHH vs Y2J vs JBL vs Jeff Hardy vs Kennedy vs Umaga or HBK or Lashley (so many options)

I was kinda hoping we might see someone new win it but with the champions as they are it seems a Face has to win it. I would prefer Lashley than taker or Batista but i think whoever wins will probally take on Edge making way for HHH to fight Orton.

but who does that leave? the only people i can see winning it are Flair, MVP, Kennedy, a returning lashley or god forbid Hornswoggle or HBK.

hey!  what would be wrong with HBK?!
i was kinda rootin for him (i know better then to actually think he could, but one could hope)
if Hornswoggle won i would seek out and bludgeon Vince McMahon personally

Well aside from the fact that he bores me to death as he has wrestled pretty much the same matches for 10 years. He has had his chances recently and came up short against Cena and came up short against Orton and now is coming up short against Kennedy it wouldn't make sense to throw him in to the main event as to be honest i think he has dropped below the level of Main Eventer. Recently wwe has done a  great job of bringing up new guys to challenge for the title, HBK winning the rumble would undo all that hard work.

The best thing that can happen to HBK now is to shove him over to Smackdown to feud with the impressive MVP. Maybe he could have the last title run he wants so bad over there. But i doubt his ego would let him leave RAW coz he wont be with his bummer HHH and the security that brings him and the thought of being on the B show would probally kill him.

I think i'd prefer Hornswoggle to win

Apprantly the former champion returning is The Big Show!

I liked the Big Show and glad to see him back

dear....god.....no

The man cant wrestle - the man is FAT

[Izzy]

The film was written by Dan Kunk and will be directed by Renny Harlin (Die Hard 2, Nightmare on Elm Street 4). It's set to be released on September 5th, 2008[/i]

Lol - doesnt take much to work out how good this film will be then!

The dude's actually dropped a load of weight and he's meant to be in the best shape he's been in for years, in his WCW days the dude could wrestle hell he could even Moonsault off the top.............

[AxlsMainMan]

I really liked The Big Show when him and The Undertaker were a tag team back in the Attitude era.

Here's hoping the WWE brings Gangrel back someday.



He was a wicked athlete, plagued by a fucked shoulder

I'm assuming Big Show will return in the Royal Rumble Match,  by eliminating The Great Khali or something. After all, the report says he's due back very soon. I'm curious to see the shape he's in. If the report is accurate, he should be better than ever and should be capable of doing more things now. When he left the WWECW about a year back, he was in terrible shape, and his matches were equally as bad. You've got to wonder though, that dropping from 510 lbs to 440 should be a HUGE improvement in his ability.

I think it should be a good return, and I hope they change his persona and make him a credible big guy again. Paul "The Great" White sounds about right. 

The best thing that can happen to HBK now is to shove him over to Smackdown to feud with the impressive MVP. Maybe he could have the last title run he wants so bad over there. But i doubt his ego would let him leave RAW coz he wont be with his bummer HHH and the security that brings him and the thought of being on the B show would probally kill him.

That will never happen.
HBK will always be on Raw.
Remember the time Batista had to forfit the title due to injury and they had a battle royal later that night, were Kurt Angle jumped over to Smackdown and won the title? Well HBK was actually first in line for that slot but declined because with the Smackdown schedule, he would miss church....and no...thats not a joke.

I was just checking out the Royal Rumble information on WWE and noticed they don't mention the 2004 Rumble, this was a period when I wasn't watching did they have a rumble that year. Or is it a case where Chris Beniot won so they wont mention it?

They had a royal rumble in 04 so I am sure it is because Chris Benoit won. 

[Hammy]

Got the "Best of CM Punk" the other day for ?4.97, bargain considering it's 4 hours.  Obviously it's Pre-WWE so it should have some quality matches, not watched it yet though.

Oh and in my endless quest to collect all WWE Events on DVD I got the Tagged Classics set In Your House 13 & 16, oddly enough they released these a few years back randomly, now that I have 11 & 12 and 14 & 15, it went without sayin' I had to purchase this sooner or later.  Just got done watching IYH13 and it's a solid event.  The undercard is nothing too special, the best match being Owen & Bulldog vs Lafon/Furnas (These guys had great matches they were just berefit of charisma) marred only by a cheap finish.  The Main Event though is class.  It's the "Final Four", 'Taker, Austin, Bret & Vader and it's an all out brawl, goes for 25+ mins and it's exciting from start to finish, even Vader looked good and at this point in his career that was a rarity.

I seem to remember Vader being busted open badly in that match but maybe it wasn't as bloody as I think.

That event also has Rocky Maivia VS. Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Strange to think that 4 years later, they'd be the two biggest stars in the company...

Yeah Vader did, quite a sight considering they rarely bladed in the E back then.

Heck, take that battle between Trips and Rock at that point they both sucked, the posh one vs. the hated babyface, 14-15 months later they were having that classic Ladder Match at Summerslam.

[Gnrfan]

Does anyone remember The Ultimate Warrior no selling the Pedigree . . . haha. I bet trips was pissed at that.

On another note not sure if any of you play TEW07, well TEW08 is out in June and is looking set to be the best game yet.

If you people are looking for a amazing wrestling booking game this is it. Go to www.greydogsoftware.com its pretty amazing but i'd wait to get 08 coz that gonna be special.
