SPOILER: show
Natalya number 30 for women


SPOILER: show
Ok now this is interesting!
Randy Orton number 1
Edge number 2



Number 30 for Women and #1&2 for Men announced. Put the spoilers on it in case you don't want to see.

Damian Rey 2.0 01-30-2021 09:36 PM

I actually renewed my subscription for the month just to watch the rumble. Namely because I'm curious what they do. Doesn't seem to be neither a red hot face to feed to Roman or a top heel to challenge McIntyre.

I also wanna see if they pull any surprises in the women's rumble.

I have no real obvious picks for either. Maybe they will let Charlotte win again so she can be the first 2 time women's winner :rofl:

Men, no real clue at all. If they want to create a big moment it would need to be a surprise entrant. Like you said, nobody feels ready for Roman as a face or Drew as a heel.

Sepholio 01-30-2021 10:38 PM

BORK LAZNER is gonna win the Rumble.

Sepholio 01-30-2021 10:39 PM

Brock v Roman is your WM main event.

Fenix122 01-30-2021 10:47 PM

I remember the good old days back when I thought every person actually had a shot at winning the Rumble...even the Bushwhackers

Evil Vito 01-30-2021 11:20 PM

Suppose if they were gonna do an early reveal, Orton vs Edge is a good place to start. I could see them taking turns clearing out entrants so they can keep going at it, Orton eventually takes out Edge only for the Fiend to be the next entrant.

Natalya probably gonna get ambushed by the real #30

I feel like Bianca Belair, Edge and DBry are all so obvious WWE will swerve it for both rumbles...wouldn't shock me to see Rhea win the women's rumble and Charlotte to end up RAW women's champ before WM...Alexa winning wouldn't shock me either...LARS returned to Instagram today, I don't expect him to win but it wouldn't surprise me if he returned at the Rumble...same for Seth Rollins...but I feel like Goldberg is gonna win the Rumble for some reason, IDK why.

Alexa Bliss will win the Royal Rumble. The men's one.

The Fiend will win the female one.

Usually I’m pretty stoked for Royal Rumble matches but this years seem pretty ho-hum. Really interested in the Universal title match after that fire promo on Smackdown.

Would be funny if they do pretty much the entire WM36 card over again, but with fans this time. And Braun not replacing Roman obviously.

Supreme Olajuwon 01-31-2021 11:24 AM

Havent watched WWE programming much since Wrestlemania so I don’t know the storylines or who the hot commodities are entering the show, but dammit I love the Rumble so much so you bet your buns I will be tuned in tonight!

This year is the least hype I can recall for a Rumble ever...I am sure KO/Roman will be good but we've seen that match before (even at the Rumble before, with Jericho in a shark cage above the ring).

It's sort of a Ho-Hum year for hype.

So it was put in spoilers tags and you were like “Nah. Fuck it.”?

Damian Rey 2.0 01-31-2021 02:24 PM

Rhea should win the women's Rumble honestly. It seemed that dumb loss Charlotte at Mania last yr didn't elevate or make anyone and derailed Rhea. Let her win, get the belt back on Charlotte and give Rhea the title at mania.

I'm not interested one bit in Goldberg v Reigns. Bryan v Reigns would be good. So I'm all for Bryan winning the rumble if they can't pull a bigger star for Roman, like Cena or Brock. I'd REALLY love a Cena v Reigns Mania match but I know it's unlikely. Brock and Roman would also be good, imo.

Rammsteinmad 01-31-2021 02:33 PM

My guess is Daniel Bryan will win and go on to face Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania. It's an interesting Rumble in the way that there's a lot of people who look like they could potentially win it, but ultimately it's happening in 2021 with shitty booking and no crowd, so I'm still not overly excited.

Evil Vito 01-31-2021 02:45 PM

No. WWE has openly mentioned it on social media, marketed it on their website, and will definitely be mentioning it on the pre-show and the broadcast itself before the Rumble even happens.

Can't complain about spoilers when the company wants you to know about it.

Supreme Olajuwon 01-31-2021 03:19 PM

Really looking forward to a WWE Legend appearing in the Rumble and Michael Cole reading off his stats like he’s giving a book report.

Really wish that guy was dead.

Supreme Olajuwon 01-31-2021 03:21 PM

“Well ladies and gentlemen entering at number 23 is the Boogeyman. This is his second Rumble appearance. He previously lasted 16 minutes back in 2007. And Corey, he’s got an affinity for worms.”

RP 01-31-2021 03:31 PM

WWE revealing anything about the Rumble match just further makes me not trust that they can do anything creative with these Rumble matches. Why you reveal the #30 for the women or the 1 and 2 for men is just inexplicable. They're not going up against the Super Bowl tonight. There is no need for any reveals.

So that said, because I think WWE simply has 0 creativity left in there product, I have to go with the obvious choices. I'm pretty sure Daniel Bryan and Charlotte Flair win the Rumbles.

RP 01-31-2021 03:34 PM

It would make a lot of sense to have The Rock come back for one last run and and win the Rumble. Great promotion for his new show. The Samoan relationship between him and Roman Reigns would make total sense for a match. Maybe Rock comes back and " challenges the throne " so to speak.

The story is all there. So i guess The Rock would be my 2nd pick to win the Rumble.

RP 01-31-2021 03:35 PM

If WWE has any creativity left in the tank, The Rock wins the Rumble. If not, Daniel Bryan wins the Rumble.

Supreme Olajuwon 01-31-2021 03:38 PM

What’s Brock Lesnar up to these days? I think he could benefit from the rub of a Rumble win. Would love to see Brock and Goldberg “GET IT ON” at one more Wrestlemania

Evil Vito 01-31-2021 04:40 PM

There's only so many accolades they have yet to give Charlotte, so being the first-ever multiple time winner of the women's Rumble would fit the bill. Sigh.

xrodmuc316 01-31-2021 04:47 PM

As long as he can manipulate the crowd noise, Vince may actually convince himself that the fans are really behind Charlotte lol

I dunno I feel like Alexa is winning the womens rumble for sure.

XL 01-31-2021 04:55 PM

Revealing entrance positions makes me think they have to have something surprising planned. You can’t remove some of the surprise elements without replacing them with other surprises. And thus I’m fully expecting to be disappointed by the end of the show.

There's no way the Rock is coming back right now. You don't waste that bullet on a run of shows where you'll have zero to limited crowds. That's a waste of prob your last remaining great draw and fresh dream match.

I think next year is the year you run a Rock v Roman feud. It doesn't need the belt, but fuck it. As long as it happens.

Brock or Cena should be fed to Roman this yr. And if they can't be, Daniel Bryan is the next next option. Especially if it's going to be his last true main event run.

I'm still praying to see Becky and Ronda come back in the rumble, eliminate each other, and run a program to have a grudge match at Mania.

That was the worst Samoan drop I have ever seen by Nia Jax. Check that. By anyone.

Charlotte completely whiffed on the moonsault. I mean completely. She landed on her feet standing between them and then they all fell down lmao.

Leg drop by Nia is now the worst leg drop I have ever seen. She's on fire tonight guys.

Emperor Smeat 01-31-2021 06:52 PM

Not sure what's worse, Charlotte's moonsaults that rarely connect or this Charlotte/Ric/Lacey storyline.

Women's Tag title match was meh.

So how many throw-away title reigns does that give Charlotte now in WWE? Feels like she's had maybe just 1 title reign that wasn't a bust or meaningless on the main roster.

Sepholio 01-31-2021 06:54 PM
