January 29, 2012 - Scottrade Center - St. Louis, Missouri 30-man Royal Rumble Battle Royal - Winner gets a WWE Title match or a World Heaveweight Title match at Wrestlemania 28 on April 1st, 2012
So who are the favorites in people's eyes? I think Ziggler might be the one winning out this year. Set up him and Punk at WM.
He did have the Intercontinental belt once....wasn't that enough? He comes out with a painted stocking on his arm for christsake.
The only way Kane goes over if he's going to take on the Undertaker at WM and 'Taker has the strap on the line.
Chris Jericho will win the Royal Rumble setting up Punk vs. Jericho for the title at WM. I have absolutely NO interest in a Punk/Ziggler main event at Mania. Dolph talks but says a whole lotta NOTHING. Jericho Barrett (setting up Barrett vs. Bryan) Sheamus HHH (not really) CM Punk because it'd be AWESOME!
Let the rumors start now. Brock Lesnar just retired from the Mixed Martial Arts world after a loss to Allister Overeem. His insides are all hecked and he can't take that punishment but I KNOW that Vince would give him a CRAP ton of money to get back into the squared circle. Question is, does Brock show up at the Rumble or after to challenge Taker? Who knows? I'd jizz my pants if he did though.
I'd love for Brock to come back, but you have to think that all that punishment in the ring would be hard for him too. Just because you are trained to know how to fall, take moves doesn't mean it doesn't hurt or put any damage on your body. I'd love for him to come back but if his body is this messed up he won't last long wrestling, specially the way he used to perform.
If Ziggler wins I will NEVER watch WWE again. I barely watch now and when I do it's because of my son. Wrestling turned into a big joke when SmackDown and Raw became different brands smh.
This is amusing to me for a variety of reasons. The main one being in WWE 12 right after I won the royal rumble with a created character Lesnar came out of retirement and rejoined Raw. If this happens in real life I WILL fall out of my chair laughing.
WWE 12 has MUCH better storylines than the actual WWE. They should let the game run and get ideas from that.
