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.
But the part that won't happen is him facing taker at wrestlemania. But Kane is just not the type to win the rumble and go to wrestlemania. He's the destroys people without winning big events type

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.

What I wrote and this.

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.
Please don't.

I'd honestly rather kill myself than see Kane lose to Undertaker again or see Undertaker win the belt again.

So, am I the only one that thinks The Rock can possibly show up this Sunday at the Rumble?

I mean, it's been confirmed that Dwayne has been scheduled for the Raw go home show for Wrestlemania but I have a hard time believing they're gonna have The Rock help out with the build up of one of the biggest Wrestlemania matches ever only a week before the damn event.

I seriously think Rock could show up at the Rumble to start the WM build (but he doesn't have to be on every Raw from now until the PPV).

As much as I'd like that, he's doing PR work for Journey 2 atm.

He's scheduled to get more involved around Elimination Chamber time.

Oh crap! I hate that movie now. >.>

Him appearing around EC time is good. As long as we don't see Dwayne the first time a week before the show again. That would be horrible build for that match.

Well guys that was the final raw before the rumble. Now things are buzzing. Mick foley and Chris Jericho will be in the rumble. Also the miz will the the #1 entry because he lost to r truth.

John Cena looks like hes finally embracing the hate going into the RR facing Kane. Kane broke zack Ryder's back by chokeslamming him through the stage.

Also johnny ace has to be a fair referee because if he doesn't then he will be guaranteed to get fired on next weeks raw by the COO triple h.

Any thoughts

The real question, is whether or not, the Rumble is going to be the first match or the final match.

If CM Punk defeats Ziggler, and the Rumble is last, I can foresee Ziggler placing himself in the rumble for another headlining moment

The same goes for the Daniel Bryan vs. Big Show Vs. Mark Henry Match

Although, there are quite a few people who I could never see getting eliminated this year, such as Randy Orton, Sheamus, Chris Jericho and The Undertaker if he comes back for this...

Ultimately, given Jericho's performance last night, I would like to see him win, and go on to face CM Punk at WM

My dream surprise entrant would be Christian and MAYBE 'Taker.

I would mark the fuck out if Batista showed up. Oh my lord!!

So two days to go and WWE have barely announced anyone for the RR match, so I'm gonna take a wild stab at it:

The Miz, R-Truth, John Cena, Kane, Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler, Mick Foley, Chris Jericho, Santino, David Otunga, Brodus Clay, Kofi Kingston, Mason Ryan, Wade Barrett, Sheamus, Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, Jinder Mahal, Big Show, Mark Henry, Hornswoggle, Justin Gabriel, Ted Dibiase, Hunico, Heath Slater, Ezekiel Jackson, Christian, Alberto Del Rio, Goldust, Crazy Surprise Entrant (I'm going with Bret Hart personally).
