I would actually very much like to see Cass do the whole "S-A-W-F-T" thing and then Gulak stop him before he can finish to correct him on the spelling

Perfect team let's do this

Like here we are, less than 48 hours away, and theyve still only announced 18 people

Elias
Randy Orton
Shinsuke Nakamura
John Cena
Finn Balor
Baron Corbin
Matt Hardy
Bray Wyatt
Rusev
Aiden English
Titus ONeil
Apollo Crews
The Miz
Tye Dillinger
Kofi Kingston
Big E
Xavier Woods
Roman Reigns

Doing the traditional game with 12 unknowns is strange

Suzuki vs Tanahashi was something else.

I liked it a lot more than last year's Okada/Suzuki, maybe because those two have a much stronger chemistry together.

The storytelling was better here and the match wasn't a fast paced athletic fest, but a slow intense grind.

Smart money is already in and it's this:

Men's Rumble - Virtual tie in odds between Reigns and Nakamura. 3rd - Daniel Bryan, 4th - Dolph Ziggler, 5th - John Cena

Women's Rumble - 1st - Asuka, 2nd - Rousey, 3rd - Paige, 4th - Becky, 5th - Nia

https://www.f4wonline.com/wwe-news/wwe-royal-rumble-notes-pre-show-matches-maria-menounos-250561

On the pre-show, there will be a United States Championship open challenge issued by Bobby Roode. Roode won the title by defeating Baron Corbin, Mojo Rawley, and Jinder Mahal in a tournament after the storyline where Dolph Ziggler walked out and voluntarily gave up the championship in December.

Two tag team matches are also set for the pre-show. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson will team against The Revival, and Kalisto, Gran Metalik & Lince Dorado will face Drew Gulak, TJP & Jack Gallagher.


All three are on the pre-show, so it's something

Even if Charlotte and Bliss were participating, that's still 10 spots left open.

The 18 females confirmed are: Naomi, Asuka, Riott, Sarah Logan, Liv Morgan, Mandy Rose, Sonya Deville, Natalya, Sasha, Bayley, Nia Jax, Dana Brooke, Lana, Carmella, Tamina, Mickie, Alicia Fox, Becky Lynch

Any guesses on the 12? I can only think of Rousey, and whatever legends/NXT they can pull.
