Sting is never going to WWE. Right now Sting's biggest legacy is being "the greatest superstar to never work for Vince McMahon".

I hope you are here for the LD. It'll be a blast if the Linebacker joins the party.



Exactly. Sting will never ever go to wwe. It's just not gonna happen. He's 53 years old. He's just gonna go to wwe this late in his career because he wants to work there before he retires.

So the 'rumor' was that Orton is scheduled to win the RR.

IMO, I am leaning more towards a Barrett win myself (I also like Barrett so this would be totally fine if it happened) and my friend's pick is Ziggler, which I also wouldn't mind at all.

I'm hearing too main contenders right now: Orton & Jericho. I'd have no problem with either.

Well it looks like we have a new match added.

Mark Henry vs Daniel Bryan vs The Big Show for the world heavyweight championship in a steel cage match

Added to the OP

This card looks stacked right now, although on the fence as to the potential quality of Cena/Kane.

4 matches is stacked?

Kind of. When you have the Royal Rumble, you don't need a lot.

Right now I'm leaing towards Orton but if Jericho hurries up and speaks, it would be a good way to get him a match with Punk.

I think orton will win and challenge the heel Daniel Bryan. And Chris Jericho will just get a match with punk at wm28

Orton winning again? I don't think WWE will let him win it again. I think it might just be Kanes year and then he will go on to face Taker at WM.

I don't work at WWE but I can pretty much agree with ViperRKO (shocking I know) that I probably have a better chance of winning the Rumble than Kane. Holy shit! I should try and get into the Royal Rumble and then fucking shoot on Orton, put him in a crossface, shout out BENOIT BENOIT and eliminate him.

Instead if being sarcastic. Think about the chances of Kane winning the rumble and facing taker. And thank you fuji
Why is there a fullstop there? But back on topic. I just really think it might be Kane's year, Every single year he does awesome in the Rumble and never wins. I thought it just might be his time.

Doing awesome is enough, I don't think he needs to win it. I also don't relish the thought of Kane going for any sort of title at 'Mania, because he doesn't need to be in the title picture.
