Royal Rumble WWE Royal Rumble 2015: Early Match Card Predictions for the Pay-Per-View

[Leo C]

I'll definitely watch Lesnar vs Cena, if Cena jobs again, time well spent.

The Rumble match should be good, despite who ends up winning it. *cough* Reigns *cough*

The Tag Match does have a build, but it's a crappy one, as well as the divas match.

As far as Orton/Rollins goes, I think they might save it for Fast Lane. I see Ziggler vs Rollins at the Rumble, with Orton interfering. But we'll see how that one goes.

Well, crappy build and no build I see as pretty much the same :dawg: In fact, I guess no build is sometimes even better than a crap build because they don't give you time to hate the match before it even takes place. As far as this particular Usos/Mizs feud goes, the first segment when Jimmy punched Miz was good. The rest was meh for me

Yeah, I guess you're right on point here.

Randy Orton will start to work house shows again this week. Which means, his TV return is close.

Yeah. He's supposed to be booked in a feud with Kane, but for house shows only. The main feud, which is with Rollins, will be on TV.

 

[Leo C]

I'm sure they'll have some Kane/Orton matches on TV though, even if it's not the main TV feud. Bad times are upon us :dawg:

Well, yeah. That's inevitable.

 

[The GOAT]

I can see it happening for 2 reasons... one of which is the boring ass WWE reason of media appearances, talk shows, etc. You don't put Brock Lesnar on those, lol.

But if the plan is "Lets make as big a star out of Roman Reigns as we can",... going up against Cena is really the perfect matchup. Cena is WWE's second-biggest heel (behind the company itself) in the eyes the fans, and think of the added heat he'll get for getting his 16th title reign and tying Ric Flair's record on top of the "Wait, so you broke the fucking streak to put over John Cena!!!!?!??!!?!?!??!?!?!?!?" additional insanity - yeah, a Wrestlemania crowd would want nothing to do with Cena that night. And as much as we may root against Cena 2.0, the dude will be the biggest conquering hero since he was Not Batista at the Royal Rumble.

Imagine how nauseated people would have been if instead of winning it back at the Rumble, he won it back at in the rematch at Night Of Champions instead. If people had to endure hearing about how beating "Streak Ender" Brock Lesnar was the biggest win of his career followed by six months of an 'historical' 16th title reign shoved down our throats, they would have been even more desperate to see someone kill Cena come Wrestlemania time. Plus, at least the title wouldn't have been AWOL for a quarter of a year.

Riots would ensue!

Nah, they wouldn't. Everyone loves Cena. 1:

I, personally cannot wait until Royal Rumble! It's that Wrestlemania season that we all are waiting for the entire year.

Now that Daniel Bryan has returned in action, the Rumble is unpredictable again. There are 4 wrestlers likely to win: Roman Reigns (35%), Daniel Bryan (25%), Dean Ambrose (20%), Dolph Ziggler (20%).

And hey, there are so many rumors that Rollins will cash in on Lesnar or Cena. Let's all hope this is true and anyone besides Reigns wins the Rumble and I'm fine with it.

Can't wait for it, too! Road to WrestleMania is always awesome!

I'll stick to my scenario... Bryan wins the Rumble, defeats Lesnar at WM 31, then Rollins cashes in on a weakened Bryan that same night.

 

[Snowman1]

With Daniel Bryan in this Rumble, there's no way Roman Reigns can win this. Can't happen.

It feels weird saying "Daniel Bryan should win the Royal Rumble" after he got such a huge moment last year. It's been so long since WWE has had a star of that magnitude and I'm stuck in this "new stars must win every match" mindset that it's almost making me root against Bryan in favor of Ambrose or (especially) Ziggler, but then again...

Screw it. Whoever wins, we win. :yay:

 

[Snowman1]

Can't wait for Rumble though! This is gonna rule!

 

[Crimson]

You're right, whoever wins (besides Reigns), we win. Randy Orton is a possibility tough, I see him having more chances than Ambrose or Ziggler.

Yeah, they can't be stupid enough to choose Reigns over Bryan.

I'm cool with anyone but Cena 2.0 winning it.

I'll be rooting for Bryan, though.
