    I wonder will any NXT UK guys/gals get into the rumble matches ???

    Walter is apparently unhappy with his main roster ppv debut at Survivor series

    They put up a video on youtube and the end it did mention all 3 brands so im guessing we will see a few NXT in the rumble

    Match card so far

    Mens Royal Rumble
    Womens Royal Rumble
    Fiend vs Daniel Bryan- Strap Match for the universal title
    Becky Lynch vs Asuka- Raw Womens title
    Roman Reigns vs Baron Corbin- Falls Count Anywhere
    Bayley vs Lacey Evans- SD womens title
    Andrade vs Humberto Carillo- US title
    Sheamus vs Shorty G

    Is there any confirmation that people in singles matches are not allowed in the rumble matches???. I really hope there not cause that will rule out Reigns winning the rumble

    25 names there so 5 from NXT. Really wished they would of kept it a secret and not say the competitors. Anyone think we may see KO or Joe be attacked by the AOP and they will not enter ?

    There's no way Punk will be in it, 0 chance.

    I know I can understand them announcing 5 or 10 big names but leave the rest as a surprise.

    The attack and being taken out of the rumble angle has been to death so yeah I say there's a good chance that will happen, 5 open slots leaves nothing for NXT, NXT UK or surprise entrants.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,746 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    I don't think R-Truth will be in the Rumble and will instead probably have a backstage bit with Mojo , who knows maybe they will leave Corbin or someone similar out too after their falls count anywhere match but I doubt that. I can imagine 5 NXT guys involved and one surprise entrant. Don't think there is any chance of CM Punk, not expecting Cena or Edge but I'd actually put both as more likely

    There will be loads of NXT women in their rumble and given their is an NXT ppv (When worlds collide) it is perhaps more understandable that they deviated from their 10/10/10 plans for the mens' rumble although I really don't think they should ever announce so many wrestlers in advance and should allow for some surprises.

    I assumed Braun would be facing Nakamura as well for the title

    SCKO or Joe to win, I do think it will be a Raw rumble winner


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,455 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Rumble pool open

    https://touch.boards.ie/thread/2058048109/2/#post112337441

    Sign up If u want and you will be given 2 numbers (1 in each rumble match). I'll have the numbers out as soon as we get to 30. If we don't get 30 some lucky people might get 2 numbers each rumble


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,133 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    With Morrison back, who gets the close call spot between him and Kofi?
    I guess with the feuding at the moment, they could eliminate each other and both pull off some recovery

    offically gone dark as of yesterday

    man cant wait for this and please remember spoiler tag

    Hopefully no dickhead posts for the first time here and ruins it for everyone :mad::(


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,011 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    The 2018 royal rumble is on the network and the moment between trish and mickie was great when the crowd reacted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,455 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    If the fiend does retain and there is a SD rumble winner I wonder will they have him coming out to face the winner ???

    Christ I hope Orton doesn't win again. Rollins being in it is interesting cause he could get the AOP to help him, same with Styles with the OC ?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,464 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Yeah, I feel with Brock, he'll be at Mania facing whoever eliminates him from the Rumble.

    Which leaves a clear path for a Smackdown star to win and face Bray.

    I mean, I know it's Roman. It's been Roman for months now. I just am not looking forward to that feud at all....

    Joint winners both feet hit the ground at the same time.

    One picks Brock one picks Bray.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,910 ✭✭✭Chuck Noland


    So paddy power...... JOKE....

    In seriousness tho I’d love if Edge or Punk or a surprise (not say Cena) came back and won to freshin things up a bit


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,133 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    They would be good surprise returns, but to freshen things up they could have someone outside the usual main event rotation win.

    Have the day off tomorrow so can watch this when I get up


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,953 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    What time does the PPV start? Its probably be the first one i have stayed up to watch in a long time so hopefully its not a big pile of **** ha


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Anna Numerous Shuffleboard


    I haven't a clue what's going on in WWE so this will actually be a surprise for me.*



    *With Reigns prevailing.

    kick off show at 10, main show at 12.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,133 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    So who will spend half the rumble match outside the ring? They really need a 10 count rule as well. Get eliminated if thrown over the top rope or are outside the ring for longer than a count of 10

    Probably Roman again. I can see Roman winning the falls count anywhere match and then Corbin and his goons attack Roman and lay him out so he can have a snooze on the outside.


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,011 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy




    Seems apporiate tonight of all nights.

    Just thinking, did one of the rumble matches take place near the beginning last year, or 2 years ago? I seem to remember staying up later than planned because of it. But it couldn't have been last year since Becky inserted herself in the women's after losing her match and think that's why Nia entered the men's as well. Because she didn't win the women's
