General WWE Discussion: Roman Weeps, Taker Retires, MNK/SAM/RDM LFP

[Vagrant]

I would expect RVD to come back at the rumble. Papa Shango is rumored every single year and if the guy is in it at all it's always as Godfather. Jake I would guess is likely as well now after his return on Old School Raw. Still expect Daniel Bryan to be a late entry perhaps with a returning Sheamus also being there if he's cleared. Christian and Evan Bourne as well. Wondering if there is going to be another NXT guy in it this year but they didn't do the weekend event this year so going to guess not.

[Anoat]

Oh God, I just realized that "Voodoo" could mean The Boogeyman instead of Papa Shango. NOOOOOOoooooooo....

[Kang]

I expect Jake to be in it. Voodoo could refer to snake charming maybe, but that's farfetched lol.

Also, poor Barrett, he had huge potential now he's just wasting away in this crappy gimmick.

[Trigun]

edit: What Vagrant said. Sorry.

[Kang]

Just read some online articles about possible surprises/returns. Some names include Christian, RVD, Sheamus (ugh), Sting (too early), Jericho, Kane, HHH, Jake, and real surprises like 2 Cold Scorpio, Snitsky and Jimmy Yang.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that Nash has dyed his hair again, you know what that means lol

[Krandor]

I read a rumor at one point of AJ Styles, which won't happen but would be amazing.

[Kang]

To support my theory of voodoo referring to Jake, here's the Ultimate Warrior/Jake "trials" vignettes from 1991.

[Exoduso]

RVD is likely to return tonight... Jericho not so much.
I'm also expecting Sheamus to make a return, and god knows we're all praying there will be some stipulation added in the Bryan/Wyatt match to give the winner an entry number, but likely won't happen either.

Ahh who cares, my favorite match of the year is tonight. Just hope Batista won't win.

[Krandor]

From a business standpoint Batista HAS to win. Having him strut around for GotG press events with the belt over his shoulder would be such big media exposure Vince probably has an erection just thinking about it.

I agree and am not mad about it. If AJ was a surprise...man that would be awesome. Then Vince and H would bury him.

[Anoat]

I laughed.

[Vagrant]

Sting has reportedly signed with WWE but this isn't the first time he has reportedly done so. Will believe it when he actually shows up. Undertaker though could be another guy that might decide to show up tonight depending on what kind of condition he is in currently. He'd be back next month regardless if not so a month early might not be hard for him to pull off.

[Kang]

Anyone have a good stream for the Royal Rumble? This is the only match I care about all year.

[Vagrant]

Kickoff spoiler

Spoiler: show

New Age Outlaws are the new tag team champions for the sixth time. Going to guess that the rumble match will begin building towards that long rumored Cody vs. Goldust WM match with Goldy tossing Cody out at some point.

Not a good stream, but this Royal Rumble isn't very hyped this year: http://www.feed2all.eu/watch/235639/...mble-2014.html

[Melena]

dumb question but on that site and firtrowsports.eu i only get audio. Is there a plugin I need?

[bebeci]

I couldn't tell you. Try this stream out: http://www.coolsport.tv/stream5.html

[Exoduso]

Spoiler: show

So they do a tag title switch OFF the PPV? What's the point heh.

[Melena]

Ehh that one I got video but the stream kept pausing. No big deal I'll just torrent it tonight. I suspect maybe wmp is out of date but I can't figure out how to update it.

[Krandor]

Well, Big Show and Lesnar was even worse then expected.
