Mark Connolly Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 It's interesting, an unnamed source also told me something extremely vague. Wonder if it's the same one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 The obvious answer here is it's gonna become a title match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) There's a strange fascination with wrestling "journalists". I should hate them, but the industry they've built up around snake oil is fascinating to watch. Write whatever pish comes to mind, make sure it's not sourced in any way, then when it inevitably doesn't happen, write something obvious to keep your hit rate up and wave away the shite as "plans changed". That Rumble rumour is another well crafted one. "It's being seriously considered", but no details so that when we just get standard WWE fuckery, they can shrug and say that they must have changed their mind. And people pay for this shit. EDIT: But f**k it, fantasy booking's a right laugh. If this is real, wit's the finish daein, guys? Fiend to enter at 30, still fully ablaze, and he proceeds to win after throwing the final 6 or so out. He celebrates, still ablaze, at which point Lesnar enters, throws Fiend out (still on fire) and the commentators somehow proclaim him the winner, despite never entering. Then Hulk Hogan comes out, ala the Rock to raise his arm. Edited January 28, 2021 by forameus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Sister Abigail will win the women's Rumble. Jinder Mahal will win the men's Rumble to set up a Mania match with Drew. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A handful at most. Going back, we had... Drew/Charlotte Rollins/Becky Nakamura/Asuka Orton HHH Reigns Batista John Cena Sheamus Del Rio Edge Orton Cena Undertaker Out of those, I can only see two that would come under the stubborn category in Batista and Reigns. The other ones that were a bit of a surprise (that I remember anyway) were done to further a story. Bit harsh to complain about Orton or HHH winning when it was all part of the story they were trying to tell. Past three winners have been pretty popular and decent enough decisions, particularly last year (which was absolutely masterfully booked) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeArab Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Brad Shephard the pinnacle for me. An absolute wee guy.He ran a Twitter page ages ago I’m sure “pro wrestling mag” It got like 149K followers and It was my go to wrestling page, I enjoyed the news and comments etc. Wasn’t till years later that I realised he makes up random stories and every wrestler calls him out and he just ends up looking like a right tit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Hopefully he'll now fade into obscurity, but I've got a feeling he'll become one of those idiot Ryback types with a hot take on everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_diamond Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Ryback is hilariously bad. For a guy who is basically a walking potato on steroids he appears to think he's a cross between Bruno Sammartino and Ric Flair. Just a weird narscasistic dobber. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_diamond Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Lars already saying he quit rather than being fired. To be fair he's at least honest in the interview that he massively ballsed an amazing opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
