I have no clue what's going to happen. Seriously.

meltzer said the same as far as Hacksaw, Road Dogg, and Animal.

I think you'll have Jericho and Steph screw Punk out of the title,
Bryan wins the cage match and steals the show,
Cena v Kane will have some wacky special effects spot which will cause a fuck finish and this feud will continue. They teased an Eve heel turn Monday so maybe they'll so something with that. Have a spot where Kane is going to chokeslam her to hell and Cena has to lay down basically, she turns on him and Kane and Eve "send him to hell" thru the stage or something backstage. pyro, smoke, stuff.

Alberto gets #25, eliminates LCW to win.

So if Punk gets screwed out of the title by Jericho and Steph that makes Ziggler the champ heading into No Way Out. Do they than try and flip the belt back to Cena as I can't see them going into WM with Ziggler as the champion? I don't mind Ziggler getting the push of being the champion at WM because it can help him in the long run especially when The Rock and Cena are already going to headline WM anyways. I just don't know if they have someone for Ziggler to face as champion at WM.

I could see Randy Orton facing Daniel Bryan at WM and Orton going over though.

Christian has been out with an injury since early November, and WWE officials had hoped he would return in time for WrestleMania. No word yet on whether Christian will appear at the PPV or participate in the Rumble match itself.

The world will stand and wait with baited breath for those pearls of wisdom.

Animal reported that he won't be at the Rumble this year as they weren't able to work out a deal in time. Like really Joe, you didn't have enough time to sober up to make it to the Rumble to collect probably a quick 5k and get tossed over the top rope? Man that sucks.

The rumble is going to be broken into four parts. First, they'll start w/ a divas match. Then HHH will talk for 45 minutes. Then Shawn Michaels will show up and strut for 10 min. Then part one of the rumble. Then they'll show a few clips of the past three raws. Then VKM will growl for 20 min, before being interrupted by SCSA, who'll spit and spill beer for an hour and a half. Then the Rumble will continue. Then HHH will respond to HBK's strutting. Then Cena will come out and flip his jaws for 1/2 an hour. Then part 3 of the Rumble. Then Michael Cole will take the ring and bash JR, even though he hasn't been around in years. Then the rumble will finish, with both of the last two contestants feet hitting the floor simultaneously.

I'd bet the Rumbel closes the show.

_________________

for my final four... i'm going to go with a somewhat-hackneyed lot:

- jericho (my winner, as his victory + interference with punk's match will set up the program vs punk @ mania)
- orton (has been insignificant lately. this "good showing" = a push w/o title)
- KANER (monster heel steez. it'll take a "massive effort" to eliminate him)
- mystery combatant (hacksaw, road warrior, or whoever else was mentioned as cashing in a favor with HHH. keep hope alive... convince the 8 year olds that "anything can happen" etc. basically someone not formally announced to be in this will be in the final four)

but jericho wins it. i mean, mania is ~2-3 months off so what, there's another ~2 PPVs between now and then? it's feasible to see punk get a decent reign and build up a program with jericho, with the aforementioned "best in the world" title being a sticking point. keeping score will rejoice for being right.

then again, i could be wrong... they could have someone win this to fight for the "who gives a fuck" world heavyweight/smackdown title and therefore jericho is a late exit and someone else wants daniel bryan's glory.... but really, i think the big "angle" of the night is building up jericho/punk @ mania to be the #1b match to cena/rock "multigenerational" match and i suspect tonight will play out with jericho and punk @ odds with each other.

also, i'm with peeps that the rumbel closes the show. it's not called THE WWE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHUP ppv, it's called THE ROYAL RUMBEL so we're gonna end with a rumbel and the drama of WHO GETS TO FIGHT FOR A POTENTIALLY-MEANINGLESS HIGH-CARD MATCH @ MANIA under the glory that is cena/rock and jericho/punk.
