I'm so excited for this. I have no idea who will win and I'm sure there will be some great surprise entrants.

IF we are to believe that Austin will have one more match ( which isn't likely) and Rock will have a match, I'd use the Rumble to build to a few matches...
1) On the pre-show Lesnar and Austin bump into each other. Lesnar tells the "old man" to step aside, and when Austin doesn't, Lesnar attacks him. Later in the night Lesnar is dominating the Rumble until Steve comes out for revenge and Lesnar is thrown out from the distraction, leading to a match at WM.
2) Owens beats Dean clean early in the night to regain the IC Title. During the Rumble he starts to get on a hot streak before Sami Zayn enters and manages to eliminate Owens. Owens comes back in to eliminate Zayn, and we start the build to an IC Title match at WM.
3) The Rumble comes down to Reigns, Ambrose, HHH, and the LON. They all gang up on Roman and Dean until Rock's music hits, with Rocky coming in to even the odds. He eliminates HHH which leads to HHH/Rock at WM.
4) In the ensuing chaos Roman eliminates most of the LON and it is down to Sheamus, Roman, and Dean. Sheamus hits a brogue kick on Roman and Sheamus Dean fight for a bit. Sheamus knocks Dean out of the ring but he isn't eliminated. Roman gets back up and after a few minutes Roman eliminates Sheamus. Thinking he has won Roman begins to celebrate. Dean comes in from behind and throws Roman out, leading to Dean winning the match and title. This leads to two scenarios...
- They tease a turn from both men, with Dean finally turning on Roman for feeling that Roman has always treated him as a sidekick.
- They tease a turn from both men, with Roman finally turning on Dean for feeling screwed by everyone but never expecting his "brother" to stab him in the back.
5) The Wyatts dominate early and with nobody else in the ring, he begins another cryptic promo. The lights then go dark and the "Demon" Fin Balor enters. Before he does, the Balor Club debut out of the crowd and eliminate the Wyatts except for Bray. Bray and Balor fight for a bit before eliminating eachother, setting up a faction feud for WM.
Not the greatest ideas but it would make the Rumble event mean something and help start the build towards WM. The only other question is who faces Taker at WM. I would have Bryan face him, but won't go into details about the set up. With the above booking WM looks like...
WWE Title Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose
Brock Lesnar vs Steve Austin
HHH vs The Rock
IC Title Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn
The Wyatt Family vs The Balor Club
Daniel Bryan vs The Undertaker

WWE has a rare opportunity to catapult someone fresh into the main event scene at the Rumble with it being for the title. With so many heavy hitters injured they desperately need it. Hopefully, they don't blow it.

Would be nice if he won, and lost it the next night. Even though 99% of people would disagree with you and immensely hate it, I would love to see it. Ultimate redemption story culminating in The Snake finally winning a world championship. I'd get chills I love it, MAGGLE!

WWE Title Roman Reigns vs Dean Ambrose Brock Lesnar vs Steve Austin HHH vs The Rock IC Title Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn The Wyatt Family vs The Balor Club Daniel Bryan vs The Undertaker You know, I am on board with that, and hell it doesn't need to be those specific guys, but the scenarios are what works best for me, its BUILDING towards the event earlier than a few weeks like the lest few years have been. Austin/Lesnar could work if its a brawl, but I still dont see it happening, BUT Lesnar and maybe Sheamus could do the trick, instead of calling him "old man" you could have Lesnar calling him a loser, then later in the night during the Rumble we get Sheamus distracting Lesnar and then even later we could have Lesnar come back out and eliminate Sheamus as revenge. Im all for the Wyatts/Balor Club too, but it has to be high profile, AJ needs to come in strong and as a legit star; even if at the Rumble he debuts and gets targeted by the Wyatts and then in the following weeks we can have attacks leading to the Feb PPV where then we have Balor come up and bring a few others and set up the big match at Mania. If Rock isn't wrestling at Mania, that can make things tricky, I do like Ambrose/Reigns but it could leave Trips out, if he is indeed wrestling at Mania. If we do get Trips and Reigns, it means Reigns has to lose AGAIN and go down the card and leaves the title on someone that might not be built high enough to ME Mania. This year the title HAS to be the ME, and Reigns is the guy they have at the top of the mountain; Reigns versus a heel Ambrose works for me, throw Triple H to maybe Ziggler, Kane? I dont know.

The whole point is to build towards the event. The RR use to start the road to WM. Now it starts the build to nothing, the Fastlane starts the build to about two weeks later when the real WM feuds begin. I want the RR to mean something. Build new stars with so many stars out. Do something out of the box for once. I just want something fresh and creative. Not the same old "Roman overcomes the odds" story or a past his prime HHH winning the title again.

The most exciting thing about the Royal Rumble this year is who is going to win the NFC Championship that night.

I'm 99% sure Triple H is going to win this Royal Rumble. It wouldn't make much sense to hold him away from Television this long, to have him return at Number 30 in the Rumble and then lose. Where do they go from there in regards to a Wrestlemania opponent for Reigns? Him losing the Title qualifies him for his Rematch which he'll take at Wrestlemania. The most intriguing aspect of this Rumble for me is seeing who will step up and eliminate Brock Lesnar. I'm still thinking it'll be Owens, but it wouldn't surprise me if they had it be Sheamus, that way he could face the League of Nations at Fast Lane & Sheamus at Wrestlemania.

I like Triple H so I wouldn't mind if he won it. I'm not a crybaby when it comes to who wins the belt and how old they are, are the full time, etc. It is difficult at times but I simply try to enjoy what happens. I don't always, but out of all the times I've pissed and moaned, the only result was me pissing and moaning. All in all, I'm down.

Triple H or Lesnar need to win this.
The only problem if Lesnar wins, is who will he fight at Mania? Reigns again? No thanks. So I'm not too sure on who he'd fight.
HHH vs Reigns would be sick af.

Triple H is my favorite wrestler, and even I don't want him to win this. Mostly due to the complaints I'll have to deal with the next day.
As I said in another thread, I really hope something outside of the box happens. Something nobody sees coming. But I'm sure it'll end with Brock standing tall and we'll get a Roman/Brock rematch at WM.

It has to be Lesnar to set up Reigns' redemption story if the Rock isn't an option.
Triple H will not flll a 100,000 person stadium. He simply doesn't have the drawing power of a Rock or SCSA or a Cena. WM will sell a lot on name value, but the last WM without Cena was XIX. It drew around 55,000..and they have to fill up almost twice that amount.

People are really over thinking things way to much.Everyone knows that the WWE is fully behind Roman Reigns as the new #1 man in the compnay(or costar once Cena returns) so with that in mind it makes very little sense to keep taking the title off of him with all of these short title reigns.I really think that Reigns will enter as #1 and still end up winning the royal rumble and then after the match Triple H returns and lays him out to close out the PPV and to set up their WWE Title bout at Wrestlemania 32.As far as the rumors that Fastlane is suppose to be a big deal leading to WM 32 you could go the route of Reigns/Lesnar II for the WWE Title and once Reigns retains do to whomever Brock is facing at WM(Wyatt,Owens or maybe even Angle)costing him the match makes Triple H put the boots back on to try and take the title off of Reigns at WM 32.
