Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 20, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted January 20, 2015 I'm about 90% sure that Rollins walks out of the Rumble with the title now and faces Reigns at WM. I wouldn't be completely surprised if it's Bryan instead but I think that's unlikely. I think there's probably a small chance that Cena comes out with the belt but i don't see that being as effective. Â Of course if the seemingly babyface Lesnar holds on to it, there's only one possibility for a Rumble winner and that's Rusev. Has a heel ever challenged for the title at WM and won? I know a few have successfully defended since Trips in 2000. Â I'm enjoying this build for WM. It's completely unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Lesnar smashing all the bad guys was a wonderful sight too. You wonder what they do with Lesnar for 'Mania if he's now one of the babyfaces? Â I wondered that as well. It's an interesting one, would they use him to put a heel over on the way out? Rusev seems like he'd be the most natural to go against Lesnar, but I can't see it. It couldn't be Rollins because either him or Lesnar has to be champion come WrestleMania, you'd think. Maybe Bray Wyatt if Undertaker's not up for a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavinSAFC Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 RAW was absolutely brilliant last night. Hats off. That ending was immense. Â They managed to make those who needed to look strong ahead of the Rumble, left another little taster of what is to come with Sting and everything else in between.

neil is brill Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 This is probably a question for one of the two network threads but did Michael Cole say last night that all PPVs are on the network excluding Wrestlemania 31 or including?

Slapnut Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 They've been advertising it as including WM31, so unless they've changed it suddenly, it's included. Â My favourite Michael Cole line on Raw was that Royal Rumble is his favourite PPV because it only happens once a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite Michael Cole line on Raw was that Royal Rumble is his favourite PPV because it only happens once a year. I noticed that but then I realised he was talking about the Royal Rumble match itself. Edited January 20, 2015 by TildeGuy~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Bray Wyatt if Undertaker's not up for a match. Â Whether or not it happens, I think Lesnar tapping out to The Accolade is a huge "Wrestlemania moment" and one that pushes Rusev into main event scene for an age, rather than just being a gimmick they're building for Cena to beat - he's bulletproof after a win like that, you would think. Lana can spend months saying Rusev is the man that beat "The Beast" so badly that he's not been seen in WWE since the match. It really legitimizes Rusev. Â Of course, maybe Lesnar stays with WWE and goes on to become their hottest babyface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The British Bushwacker Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 and hopefully it would establish Rusev enough as a top guy that should lesnar return in a year/2 years it would be a pretty anticipated rematch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavinSAFC Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Is that Raw opening new? Don't really take notice off it most weeks so might not be. I love the subtlety of it. Â Cena, Reigns, people, Reigns, people, Reigns. Â Far better booking of him this week. Say nowt, hit hard. Â They put this on Youtube last week.

Yokozuna beat Bret at WrestleMania 9 for the title, though they switched it to Hogan straight away so the show still finished with a good guy winning the belt.

Mr_Danger Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) HHH shouting Sting over and over then looking around the arena at the crowd going ape shit was great. He really steps up his game, pardon the pun, when it comes to Mania season. Â Honourable mention goes to Sandow-Pac. He probably won't get a spot on the main card at Mania but id love it if they did do that Hollywood backlot match featuring Piper. Even better if you have to make the other guy put on a pair of shades to win. Edited January 20, 2015 by Mr_Danger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegamehhh Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I don't see Lesnar as an out and out babyface now though, He literally (to me) fucked with Rollins etc because of what he did to him previously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
