MATCHES TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON


Chad's original post
 
Well, 2007 is less than a month away now...

And the New Year = The Royal Rumble in my mind...

Here's what I'm hoping for...

ECW Champion Bobby Lashley (w/ Paul Heyman) vs. Rob Van Dam - One would assume that if they continue the Heyman and heel champion storyline, that RVD will get a title shot to finally get the storyline over with him before changing the focus to the fatest rising star in the company, CM Punk.  Could be a good extreme rules match and would be light years ahead of anything that we saw in the mid-card at last year's pathetic Royal Rumble PPV.

The Hardy Boyz vs. The World's Greatest Tag Team - I have this elaborate scenario to get us here.  It involves MNM beating Matt/Jeff, then the Hardyz winning the tag titles, and then TWGTT reforming at NYR in a Tag Turmoil match to win the tag belts.  We can dream can't we?  It's not too far out of the realm of possibility yet...

World Heavyweight Champion Batista vs. King Booker in some sort of gimmick match - King...Royality...King Booker...Royal Rumble.  Add those key points to the fact that Batista doesn't have many challengers for his belt and this could work.  Please gimmick the damn thing, though...

WWE Champion John Cena vs. Shawn Michaels - The Royal Rumble is in San Antonio, Texas.  I think Cena vs. Trips II is Wrestlemania's main-event.  Thus, this whole idea of Cena-HBK would fit into the grand and probable scheme.  I think it'd be great to see HBK get a title shot.  Plus, the Rumble needs a major championship match...it should be a special PPV...

The Royal Rumble, featuring HHH, Umaga, Nitro, Carlito, Chris Masters, Randy Orton, Edge, Viscera, Ric Flair, and Eugene (from Raw); Chris Benoit, Chavo Guerrero, Finlay, Undertaker, Kane, MVP, Mr. Kennedy, Gregory Helms, William Regal, and *Monty Brown (debut) (from Smackdown!); Sandman, CM Punk, Tommy Dreamer, Hardcore Holly, Test, Sabu, Kevin Thorne, Daivari, Elijah Burke, and Mike Knox (from ECW) - Possible winners would be Randy Orton, Triple H, Undertaker, and CM Punk...thus we'd have those four be the final four (hey, they had the top three potentials be the last 3 last year).  It's anyone's guess as to who wins, but you could have Edge cost Trips his shot, setting up their Mania match and allowing Orton to win.  You could have Taker win for the first time in his career.  Or, they could go the unlikely route and have Punk win to get his title shot...

If these rumblings about RVD and Sabu both being on the outs for different reasons, then clearly guys like Lashley and CM Punk are going to see their stars rising pretty fast for ECW.

It's not inconceivable to me to imagine one of them possibly winning the Rumble. It certainly would give the ECW brand a needed boost and put them over. Both SD and RAW have had guys win it since the brand split started, so why not Lashley or Punk?

I'm all for it.

hmmm...the reaction Punk is getting from the Raw crowd I could see him pulling a Benoit and going after either the World Heavyweight Title or the WWE Championship...either way I am hoping he will win the rumble!

This just looks solid my friends...

Now throw The Hooligans into a tag match and you have gold my friends.

Now as much as I would love to see CM Punk get the victory, I am thinking Undertaker will win it's the one big thing he's never done. However, the No Way Out poster has Undertaker on it....so I'm thinking maybe Taker wins, then puts his title shot on the line at No Way Out against like Kennedy or someone.

^^ Everybody wants CM Punk to win... he wont, but everbody wants him too. Even if Arn and them did like him, I still think he wouldn't win the Rumble.

It's too early my friend.

I am definitely one of those people that wants Punk to win, but I agree, it's too early, that is why I am sticking with my vote of Taker, and a close second would be Randy Orton

Man...this is tough...I just realized that Royal Rumble is in San Antonio Texas....HBK's home town. That definatly ups the chances of HBK winning.

Maybe tonight we'll get some kind of idea...

As of right now, I'd say Taker is the favorite...but HBK would be great...

I have a hard time really seeing either of them winning since they are established and the Rumble has become the "flavor of the year" award. Thus, I'd have to say Orton is as likely as anyone.

After reading the SD spoilers and watching Raw, I'd say it's a dead even heat b/t Taker and HBK as to who will win the Rumble...and damn that is exciting. I'm really pumped about the Rumble PPV...

Me, too.

Imagine if we're headed for an HBK vs. Taker blow off match at WM of some sort? There's your hot interpromotional match right there...

HBK vs. Taker?

It'd be hot, but where'd that come from?
