Good RAW episode i thought.

But was a bit disturbing when the Rock was coughing blood. I was trying to figure out if it was real or not since I know WWE is fake. But since its now PG I wasnt expecting it could be just WWE trying to be more "edgy". I found it to be really disturbing though regardless.

I just want to take a second to point something out:

It sucks re-watching WWF Over The Edge 1999 and KNOWING Owen Hart will die. Not easy to cope with.

I had that experience as well the first time I watched my copy of it, I couldn't even watch the Blue Blazer promo before hand.

RANDOM QUESTION FRIDAY:

Which era did you enjoy most? Golden, Gimmick (Early-Mid 90s), Attitude, Ruthless, or PG?

Ruthless, just because that is when I started watching.

I thought he just busted his lip. It didn't seem like a lot of blood to me.

The 90's all together!!! Man, those moments you'll NEVER see ever again!!!

It's just weird since you are thinking: NO OWEN DONT USE THE HARNESS TONIGHT?! And it happens anyway.

[eternalunderdog]

Word going around is Terry Funk will indeed be inducting Mick Foley into the Hall of Fame.


EDIT: oh and uh Take Two, parent company of 2K games got the WWE license from THQ.

For all of you who know who THIS GUY is. WWE 13 related of course.

Random Question Friday:

Who had the better crazy gimmick: R-Truth with Little Jimmy or Al Snow with Head?

[eternalunderdog]

Al Snow with Head, not only could he do the crazy talking bit R-Truth does now but he had a tangible partner that could "help" him in matches.

Plus the crowd chants were pretty funny.


EDIT: AYS is still the WWE best webcast, but the JBL "and Cole" Show is pretty good as well:

Did they just go and spoil the Royal Rumble title match winners in smackdown? There was some sort of commercial saying this and that superstar will defend this and that title in the upcoming event next mounth! WTF.

It is possible WWE went and spoiled their own stories, lord knows they've done it before. But it is also possible it was an ad for an event coming to an area near you, if that was the case most times those commercials are made months in advance with a little disclaimer at the bottom that says "card line up subject to change" and you really won't know what is coming till you get to the show.

We had one come through where I lived advertising something like Orton vs. Batista (evolution had just broken up) and when we got to the show Randy was out so they threw in Taker instead....which by the way if they are gonna sub someone on a show that's a great replacement, especially when you don't know he's gonna be there.

Anyway I'm rambling, point is take it with a grain of salt- chances are if it was a mistake WWE caught it and will change their plans just to make it look wrong in the long run, if not tell people you can predict the future call the matches ahead of time and have a good laugh over it.

[LovesAnInjection]

True I remember back in 2005 when Smackdown came to Finland and there was an add somewhere that said "SEE STACY KEIBLER" She wasnt even there lol XD That was just a few days after Eddie's death so i never got to see him :/

I agree. It looked gross because it looked like there was mucus and shit in there.

Haven't seen this weeks Smackdown yet so I don't know about that but I did have a similar incident happen to me not too long ago when I went onto WWE.com and it displayed an article saying that ADR won the WHC from Big Show and this was several days before they even aired it .

[Undrey]

Nah, they didn't spoil it, this has happened a lot of times, but the matches do change.

I doubt Rock will go to house shows.

Royal Rumble predictions?

WWE DIVAS TITLE MATCH
Kaitlyn (c) vs. Tamina Snuka

I've literally slept through most of the recent divas matches. Would be a shame to take the title from Kaitlyn this early, so I'll go with her.

Winner - Kaitlyn

WWE TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH
Team Hell No (c) vs. The Rhodes Scholars

As much as I like Team Hell No, just to change things up a bit I'll go with a Rhodes Scholars win.

Winner - The Rhodes Scholars

WORLD TITLE - LAST MAN STANDING
Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Big Show

I honestly never saw the point in putting the title on Del Rio in the first place, but I'll go with him to retain. If Ziggler doesn't cash in tonight then I hope he does at Elimination Chamber.

Winner - Alberto Del Rio

WWE TITLE MATCH
CM Punk (c) vs. The Rock

If Mania is going to shape up the way I think it will, then The Rock winning the title tonight is inevitable. I love The Rock, but I really don't want to see him win the title, especially from Punk. Then again, what we want and what the WWE do are 2 completely different things.

Winner - The Rock

30 MAN ROYAL RUMBLE

Again, if Mania is going to go in the direction I think it will go, then there is only one winner here too. John Cena, to set up a Rock vs Cena 2 at Mania. Seriously, I bet he could get shot in the face and still kick out at 2....

Winner - Super Cena

Random Question Friday:

Who had the better crazy gimmick: R-Truth with Little Jimmy or Al Snow with Head?

This is an easy pick for me: Al Snow with Head. I've just never liked Little Jimmy.

[Rubicant81]

Wow, they are doing the Rumble match itself one hour in... shocking, I expected it to close. Guess Rock's ego didn't make that happen.

BTW, loved the backstage vignettes by the super stars before the rumble.

Hope for a good one.

EDIT:

Toggle Spoiler

Fuck yes Ziggler and Jericho to start = win.

[parkerdip]

Enjoyed Royal Rumble very much but I wish WWE didn't go the predictable route with Rock Vs Cena for WWE Championship at Wrestlemania. There's so many different routes they can take but they chose the most obvious
