I've deliberately not followed anything in the lead up to this because I really wanted to watch a Rumble with no idea of who is going to win (beyond the obvious stuff).
Wow this first pre-show match is boring and pointless.

Im in the same boat and am prepared to be disappointed.
Semi-serious question for WM purposes. Is HHH going to be considered face now after Monday night or is anything that happened in that building considered outside "continuity".

I'd say it falls under the same category as return pops for wrestlers who disappeared during a heel run. Those return moments don't tend to necessarily mean face turn.

Normally yeah, but HHH positively interacted with a group of faces which those other returns don't normally tend to do.
first 20 mins of the pre-show were "rah rah rah womens revolution" "rah rah rah promos I wanna be the FIRST EVER womens royal rumble winner"
What are the chances this will be the only ever womens royal rumble winner?
I strongly doubt this will become an annual event... at least not in this form (included in the Royal Rumble PPV), but I do think there will be another women's RR at some point in the future.
I'm assuming this is an absolute no spoiler thread in terms of discussing betting odds and favourites etc? Would like to be able to follow along but really don't even want to know who is likely.

That said, since you said "favorites": obviously people can speculate based on their own observations etc., but yeah people do need to STFU about actual betting odds and inside info.
By the way, anyone want some sort of a heads-up sweat on the women's Rumble to make it interesting? I'll offer to take odd-numbered entrants, opponent gets even-numbered entrants, person with the winning entrant takes it down. $20. Paypal or Venmo. Any takers?
(I don't mind taking evens either, if anyone strongly prefers getting odds to themselves.)

Nothing that happened in the past counts unless Michael Cole reminds you about it
