Royal Rumble The Rock Should Win the World Title at RR?

[Neptune]

"The Rock is a legitimate Hollywood movie star now, and carrying around the WWE World Heavyweight Championship during media obligations would convince many casual fans to tune in when he'd eventually defend the title at WrestleMania 32.

With the title on the line in the Battle Royal, The Rock's chances of winning the belt are at their most believable right now. Anyone in the Royal Rumble could conceivably walk away with the championship, so booking The Rock to get a late draw into the match would be ideal.

There are concerns about his getting hurt again due to his movie schedule and previous injuries, but there is little risk for injury in a Royal Rumble match, especially when The Rock would only spend a few minutes in the ring by coming out as one of the last competitors."

This would be interesting but I don't see it happening at all. I think they're gonna wanna save The Rock performing until Wrestlemania

 

[Snowman1]

Would kill to see this happen from a purely nihilistic sense haha haha...

"Well we can't bring back Daniel Bryan because it'll fuck with Roman's push... Let's bring back The Rock instead! Yeah! We can have Corporate Rock make sure Reigns doesn't win, and babyface Roman can face a heel Rock at Wrestlemania! It'll be perfect!"

Hahaha let's do it! Wrestlemania season is already off the rails, shit, let's go run that train right into a wall while we're at it! Trainwreckamania 32, coming to a WWENetwork near you! Chugga chugga chugga chugga CHOO CHOO!

With Cena gone I honestly wouldnt be surprised if we really got HHH vs Taker Lesnar vs Owens and Reigns vs Rocky. Those could be three really big matches, with Lesnar possibly facing someone else - though I'm not sure who would be better.

Lets just hope they don't book Taker vs Lesnar again...

Rocky ain't showing up at the rumble. I'll be very surprised if he does.

 

[Leo C]

No. He can stay away forever imo, so no way he should win the belt. Plus, if the idea is for a dude to win the belt and put RR over at WM, shouldn't they go with someone who gets booed? Like HHH, for instance? Instead of the dude who gets the biggest pops? Just saying.

 

[Prince Bálor]

Not happening.

 

[edge4ever]

Rock won't win the title now. I doubt he will again. They did that to build cena yet again when he won it last time. And they wanted the feud to be bigger. So they put the belt on rock. Unless rock plans on turning heel and battling Roman for the title, it's not happening.

 

[Jacob Fox]

Yeah Rock winning the belt last time was a convenient loophole from WWE's tagline of the first Rock vs Cena match being once in a lifetime. It's a once in a lifetime match... but then Rock wins belt and Cena wins Rumble... well, then you can't blame us for going back on our "Once in a lifetime" claim because we HAVE to let the Rumble winner face the champion.

But yeah, I doubt you'll ever see the belt on Rock's waist ever again.

 

[C.M. Shaddix]

He should enter the rumble but not win

 

[Stopspot]

Triple H is the one I see winning the rumble. Then Roman gets his rematch at mania

 

[edge4ever]

I have a feeling that they're going with triple h winning as well.

Roman will bounce back and triple h will avoid having to fight him.

Then Roman will Vince hostage, threatening to hurt
Him, and triple h will accept the match at mania.

The Rock winning the Rumble...highly unlikely and quite frankly, the Rock even showing up for the Rumble is just as unlikely to happen.

With that being said, I think I'm still going to stick with Triple H. That was my initial idea since December 15th, when I first posted this idea in another thread and to me, the more I think about it, the more sense it makes. It could defintely go down as some kind of screwjob but in my vew it just serves well as far as continuing the whole story which has been building all these months. Have HHH outsmart Reigns this time and then at Fastlane we get a tournament to determine the number one contender for Wrestlemania ; we do need a number one contender anyway with the title itself on the line in the Rumble, don't we? So, Reigns wins the tournament and that basically sets up the long awaited HHH vs Reigns at Wrestlemania.

Now, having Reigns win yet another tournament is something we already got to watch not long ago and perhaps going back to that idea might not be something new or fresh but it's certainly one way they could go.

And one more thing...

Reasonably enough, Brock is considered as one of the favorites to win the Rumble and of course that's another route the WWE could take. Idk. To me, while indeed a strong possibility, it still seems too obvious and my gut says that somehow it ain't going to happen and I've actually come up with an idea. Now, it's probably not the best of ideas and I could probably be the one to end up getting booed but...what if...Batista were to make a surpise comeback at the Rumble, eliminate Brock and set up a feud that leads us to Wrestlemania. Something in the lines of the Beast vs the Animal. Just a thought anyway and probably a bad one but just throwing it out there.

In similar fashion, Kevin Owens can be the one to eliminate Brock and we could get that match instead for Wrestlemania, which apparently would make much more sense and though I've mentioned this before, Kevin Owens needs a big push for this to happen...
