O Where O Where is my Royal Rumble?

Well, it is about time for the annual WWF Royal Rumble. The Rumble has been a failry important PPV and match and really gained fame after 93 when the rule was implented about winner getting a shot at the WWF title at WrestleMania.

Which leads me to the point of this thread? With two brands and two seperate world titles which don't look to be unifying anytime, what exactly will happen at the Royal Rumble. I mean if the winner gets a shot at the title, which belt will it be?And how will the contender for the other belt be determined.

Maybe it will just be that person from the certain show. If someone from Raw wins, then they get a shot at the World Title. Maybe Smackdown (or whomever the loser is) will hold their own deciding match at the next PPV. Or just decide on the show for the next month or day or weeks.

I doubt Vince even knows yet. Just think of the stupidest thing possible for them to do... and then they'll do something more stupid.

Ahh I used to love the Royal Rumble (and still look forward to them as much as any other WWFE PPV at least). The '92 Rumble was truly awesome, if not for just Heenan's commentary. Then there was Owen Hart's brilliant quote "I kicked your leg out from your... uhh... leg!" And the Foley/HHH match is pretty great. And when Austin was throwing people out left and right, doing push-ups, sitting on the turnbuckle and waiting for the next guy to come out, then Bret Hart's music hits, that was sweet.

Its a shame but I don't really watch the WWE anymore. I mean I watch it every week, but not really. I'm usually playing computer games at the same time or surfing trhe internet. I find I avoid watching the crapo that way.

I honestlly don't know what the WWE is thinking anymore. They are stiffs with size like Batista and Albert while Tajiri is a JOBBER and RVD sits at home because he missed by 3 inches on a frog splash. Anyone who doesn't think that HHH doesn't run that company is a FOOL. HHH is running the WWE into the ground and if I were runningt it right now the first thing I'd do is fire his worthless a$$.

On a related note, the WWE is have a "Best of Raw 2002" on December the 30th I believe. This will, without doubt, be the shortest Raw in history.

Two Royal Rumbles would be great....one for each show....but I doubt that will happen.

I like Royal Rumble it's one of my favourite PPVs. I hope this one is good.

Oh yeah who thinks that the women matches are getting better? ( on raw I mean) it looks like they have improved since Victoria turned pyscho.

Well, I guess Fingersman no catch Raw. There will be 2 seperate 15 men Royal Rumbles so basically we get two Battle Royales. The winner of their respective Royal Rumble gets the title shot.

I can't see RAW much now since my mom had to cut the cable. But can anyone tell me what major things have happened this Monday? From what BaB said, that sounds pretty cool. But anything else major?

Umm BreakABone I think you heard wrong, it's actually gonna be ONE battle royal with 15 wrestlers from each side in it and the winner fights their brand's champ at 'Mania. Not two seperate rumbles.

As for Jonbo, yesterday Triple H challenged Steiner to an arm wrestling contest. It was about even, then HHH started winning, then Steiner smiled and started trying and Triple H was off his chair putting every bit of weight he had to win but Steiner won, then HHH wanted to go again and Steiner beat him like 3 times in a row real quick, and Triple H walked off. Also, Eric Bischoff made Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross (it was in his home town Oklahoma) wrestle against Regal and Storm, and Jim Ross won with the help of brass knuckles and the Dudley Boys. Also, Goldust pinned Jericho in a rematch of the tag title match after Jericho called Goldust a failure as a wrestler, parter to Booker T, husband, and father.

They should make it like World War 3. Those were some great battles.
