Im just bitter that my countdown last year lead to the godfather and the year before that was michael cole. Im sure if i drew cena i woulda marked the f out like imjosh did.

A couple of years ago we got like 5 wrestlers each in the $100 pool and I'm pretty sure my best pick was Santino. Not even kidding.

The good thing shoot this year is that there are a few that have a shot. Last year Cena was a mortal lock

I'm going to pay later tonight, and I'd like to get in pool 2 as well.

I will eat the ipad i am typing this on if anyone not initialed DB wins.

I'd be in for the 2nd pool as well

10-15% RR wins the RR and you have to chew down that tablet

Ill put up 100 against your 15 on reigns.

(I think thats who rr is)

And ill chew the ipad

OK, booked. Roman Reigns wins Rumble you ship me $100, he doesnt win and I ship you $15.

In for pool 2.

I think there a non-zero chance any of the following win the rumble. I list these in order of likelihood, my guess based on current booking/rumors

Bryan
Batista
Cena
Punk
Brock
Reigns

can i get in on that Roman reigns bet. also betting against


Also anyone mind paying my entry for me via paypal. to receive 11 sweet sweet dollars on full tilt or pokerstars?

DatFirefly and yankeys316 paid for pool 1.

Pool 2:
1.kordoISback*
2.LKJ
3.LurchySoprano*

4.silviodante1*
5.El Kabong*
6.teejayC
7.dnkyhunter31
8.imjosh
9.darO*
10.theshocker7*
11.yankeys316*
12.JimHalpert*

I'll take CM Punk to win at the same odds if you want.

Booked for both. Ill lay the same odds for cena if anyone wants it.

I actually met Punk (and AJ) last week. They were sitting at the table right next to me at a breakfast cafe. Both were pretty snotty so i look forward to antisweating. The funniest part was that he was acting as if he was so high and mighty yet more people were coming up to my dog sitting 3 feet to his left than he or his girlfriend who are both on tv.

I'm just hoping they go for the old "it's too obvious for this guy to win" line of booking.

And **** Batista.

Edit - Just to be clear it's my $15 vs your $100 right? I forgot to mention the amount before.

Yes my 100 against your 15. Still not as fun as WM last year when i laid 400 to win 25 on the undertaker (-1600 was the bovada line) My friend had similar logic, "its too obvious the undertaker wins at wm again."

Btw i will take more action against Punk at 20:3 odds because hes such a weenie irl. I will also take bryan and batista against the field if anyone wants to give me a quote.

It doesn't apply to The Undertaker at WM obv. I laid someone on here 6/1 last year actually but only for $10.

Going for the Sheamus>Jericho logic from a couple of years ago. It's not as likely with only one title but apparently Punk wants to retire soon so they might give him a rumble win, I dunno, not a great bet but whatever, a sweat is always good.

what kind of odds for DBs vs the field?

Note: if anyone takes me up on my team DB winning bet, then yes that means i also get dlo brown. I think you better recognize.

LurchySoprano has paid for pool 2. kordoISback is taking another spot for a friend not on 2p2.

Pool 2:

kordiISback paid x2.

I'll take all RR bets via pay pal, I'll give 1.5/1 on any person vs the field.
Except DB -150

I'll take action on Punk, my $15 to your $100. Interested in the other side too. I'd do 1:1 on Bryan/Batista vs. Field up to $100 (negotiable).

I dont think Lesnar is on the list. They have pretty much proven the previous Raws that Lesnar can just get a WWEWHCICUSTNA championship match whenever he wants so the Rumble does nothing for him. He will just be beating Big Slow on the night and is facing Cena or Orton for the title I guess at Raw or maybe the Elimination Chamber (which is going to be a weird PPV with only one world title now).

Cena I think is unlikely for somewhat similar reasons - keep in mind at the PPV he is in a match for the title so if they want Cena in the title main event he will just win the belt that night.

Batista is getting a headlining match, but he will just have a good performance then get eliminated by whoever is facing him at WM. If he is involved in the title scene it is Orton going over and Batista getting a Raw title match loss to build up Orton ahead of his Lesnar match.

Otherwise I think the likely list at this point is (in order of likelihood):

Bryan
Punk
Reigns
followed by some mix of longshots

At 15% on the bet line I just cant be giving away much equity in this bet. Even if I am wrong and imjosh has a better idea of likely winners being top 6 cant put him lower than 10%.
