Live Royal Rumble Discussion Thread - Saturday January 27th 2024

[Chris]

From Meltzer

The original idea was Roman and Randy Orton for the Rumble and essentially there were parties involved who did not want to beat Randy Orton this early and just felt that there is money to be made with Roman and Randy Orton in a program at some point but it's too soon to do it.

I'm all for a longer Orton/Roman program during the summer assuming Roman is still champion

 

[Dale]

I can understand that reasoning, not mad at it all. Guessing AJ is going to take the fall then?

 

[JakeYourBooty]

My guess is AJ hits night with Phenomenal forearm, Roman Superman punches AJ out of the ring then hits Knight with a spear. Solo and Jimmy keep Randy outside

 

[BlindManV3]

Have people been going, "Reigns wins lol" yet?

 

[Cwalker]

Kinda have a feeling Knight is taking the fall. Randy and AJ both just came back so I doubt they beat them

 

[Lethal]

I can 100% see Reigns stacking and smashing all 3 like he did at Mania 37. GOAT mode heading into mania season

 

[Dale]

Would make zero sense to do that if the rumour about Randy/Roman being changed is true

 

[Fuji Vice]

Definitely hope Roman loses his title in the Fatal 4 Way and it is Rock who costs him the title

That would arguably be the worst booking decision of all time.

BBWJAXX starting a 1 and winning the whole thing

 

[Dale]

Like her knees or cardio could handle that

 

[Cwalker]

She gonna take a nap on the outside like Roman did that one time

 

[Dale]

She'd need this for her entrance and exit
