yeah def a good call on bob

btw im totally bewildered on how people cant be pumped for takers wm match.... maybe im just getting old but i feel like its a privilege to even be around to see the final matches of one of the greatest ever. the build was annoying and poor last year (outside of the gong) but the match was great; the years before that the build + match were awesome

Triple threat would be perfect because it covers Rock's weakness of not being able to work a properly paced match anymore.

seriously this

punk and cena can put on a 4* match in their sleep

rock with a year of preparation put on the most boring WM main event i've ever seen

can't possibly let him do that again

I'm having a very tough time deciding if the is the GOAT or WOAT promo the WWE has every made. There's just so many different things going on that are all terrible. First off no one in the world talks about wrestling like that in real life. Secondly the girl picks the Shield to win the RR. She honestly thinks 3 people are going to win. Plus she picks Ryback too, if she was insider enough to like both the heels and the faces she would know that three people can't win the RR. Third they all appear to be huge wrestling fans but no one notices Cena sitting at the bar wearing a John Cena shirt, like he's literally wearing the worst disguise ever. And to top everything off Cena gives that d-bag smirk to the camera, it's as if he's saying "You know I'm going to win, and you hate it. You hate it and there's nothing you can do about it."

Pretty much sums up my exact thoughts when I saw the promo video. Like it makes no sense to not at least show Dwayne/Punk as well to try and sell the PPV.

They should just stick to making adverts like this, it's not going to win any Oscars but it still sticks in my head and actually features the wrestlers;

"Ryback or the Shield" is the new Melina v. Alicia Fox, isn't it?

Show and Del Rio could end with Dolph cashing in on Alberto, setting up a rematch at WM. From a standpoint of what could be a huge sell at WM, why not have Brock win the Rumble and face the Dead Man?

I can't wait to the Royal Rumble, I think that CM Punk will not lose the championship here. If he is to lose it I would rather have had the whole shield clause not happen. I think the perfect ending would have been for the Shield to come out when the ref is knocked down to attack the Rock, only for Punk to attack them and shout "I want to beat him by myself", this would add some sort of honour to the 400+ day reign if it was to end and would be something he would be respected for, perhaps him and The Rock would shake hands after the match but obviously this can't happen now.

lesnar interfering and setting up rock/brock at WM and keeping him as far away from a cena/punk title match is the best way to go. won't happen of course, but still

It really should be Cena/Punk/Dwayne for the title and Brock/Taker at WM. I sadly think we're much more likely to get Cena/Dwayne, Punk/Taker, and HHH/Brock though.

My friend and I had a draft for the rumble. We basically just had a snake draft, picking 8 wrestlers each - if one of your picks wins, you win dinner.

His (and he picked #1 overall): Ziggler; Sheamus; Ryback; Cesaro; Kane; Big Show; Lesnar; HHH

Mine: Cena; Orton; Wade Barrett; Daniel Bryan; Miz; Mark Henry; CM Punk; Taker

I told him we were both screwed when Punk wins, Rock enters the Rumble and wins.

I know I'm a fish for ordering this, but I actually want to enjoy it on the TV with the wife instead of watching a grainy feed online. There was actually a decent Punk/Shield/Rock promo on SD that imo provided a better build than what we saw on Raw.

Does Punk have any hope of retaining tomorrow? Rock in the Bank annoys me, but I nonetheless think it would be amazing if he'd put Punk over clean (chances are next to zero ldo).
