Mark it down, Ziggler wins and pisses this whole forum off.
probably, sadly I think Vince puts his own personal preferences over what the fans that make him money would want.

Problem is, in his high profile matches he's had on Smackdown, he hasn't delivered and we've not seen the guy we saw at Wrestle kingdom 9 when he was at his absolute best.
That's more WWE restricting his moveset. if he was allowed long matches with less submission moves he would easily entertain everyone, honestly I do not respect Vince McMahon because of the wrestling style he believes in.

Aw yes, nice avatar mark.. and what the fuck has Nakamura done to deserve it?.. His run on the main roster shows he doesn't deserve shit.

Go ahead, someone blame the booking, i'm ready.
deserve was the wrong word, ill give you that, but if we base recent title runs off of who deserves it AJ would be the only one, Roman is only face of the company because Vince wants him to be.

Nakamuras offence is basically the same outside of the boring forearm exchanges he always had in his New Japan matches....Vince McMahon doesn't lay out the matches....that's on the agents and the performers themselves.

AJ Styles never had to curb his style....let's not pretend this isn't solely on Nakamura here. He's the one coasting here....maybe he should stop making goofy faces and doing seizure dances and maybe do more himself.

As a Ziggler fan, it's what I want to happen.

It pissing off the forum is just a bonus.

We haven't even seen the Nakamura that faced Sami in his debut.

I never expected him to be on his Japan level but I've been extremely disappointed since he's hit the main roster

Let's be brutally honest, how many people do you think actually want to see Dolph Ziggler win the Royal Rumble.

It's not Vince putting personal preference before anything. It's Vince deciding to not go with a guy that hasn't drawn him anything.

Let's be completely honest here....nobody is getting angry if Ziggler won out of nowhere, it'd be "what?...huh....meh....than stop caring about it"....like when he won the US title.

The rumour I heard was Reigns would win the Chamber and Nakamura the Rumble. This would make sense to me because I don't see Reigns getting anymore over than he already is so a rumble win doesn't matter for him. I think even a legend being given one last run should get the win or a up and comer who needs the rub. Nakamura needs the rub more than Reigns.

Its a strong line up this year. I'm excited.

I doubt if Nakamura should win. His promos are lacking because of language. Why don't assign him a manager? Also AJ and Nakamura are both face. Wonder who will turn or be a more tweener guy.

If you're going on promos then AJ is more likely to go heel. If Nakamura is struggling to get over then WWE might give him the push against a heel AJ just to give him that last chance to connect. Then again if you stick a manager with Nakamura then him going in as the heel could work.

The "speak English" excuse is so insulting....why don't you learn Japanese?

MMA have taught us you don't have to speak English to draw people to want to watch you.

Join this century please.
