Re: WWE Royal Rumble 2014 LIVE Discussion Thread
I really, really want Batista to win the rumble now.
Purely for the butthurt that'll be the result of it. So many people have Bryan pegged to win this, despite the fact that
a) WWE have gone out of the way to not include him in the build and keep him with Bray. DB even said in a promo "Harper & Rowan are in the rumble, that leaves Bray for me". That indicates he has other plans for the evening.
b) A lot of people seem to think WWE can't be stupid enough to not capitalise on his popularity. And to that, I point you to the last 6 months of booking.
c) WWE brought back Batista for a reason. Batista has a big blockbuster film out this summer, he doesn't need this gig. Why now, why not 2 years ago? Batista has been pretty against PG in interviews, what convinced him to come back? Had to be something special planned for him, right? I doubt that plan is coming back with a load of hype, having instant interaction with the champ, and then putting Bryan over. C'mon son.
Now of course, if I'm wrong I'll take my defeat like a champ as always, but C'MON PEOPLE HE'S NOT GOING TO WIN!

In other news, Sky Bet have some hilarious odds going on. Billy Gunn at 33/1 is a personal highlight :
