I'll never forget when Mae Young flashed her puppies at the Royal Rumble.

They looked like golf balls in a gym sock.

RIP

Can't believe they ruined the Wyatt family storyline.
Daniel Bryan could have at least went into Wrestlemania as a Wyatt.
Too much rushing of the storylines these days. They don't let anything play out anymore.
Example of that is when CM Punk had "left the company" with the belt & instead of letting it string out a few weeks, he's back 8 days after he leaves.

I purchased a "Road to WrestleMania" ticket at MSG in March, just to see Daniel WYATT.
Oh well.

Guess they got HBK's confirmation that he'll face Daniel Bryan at WM30, while HHH takes on Punk.

Batista returns as a face or heel tomorrow?

Face

WWE had Del Rio cutting promos on how he wants to take the spotlight off of Batista for two weeks now. Del Rio is heel right now. That will probably be his first feud

I went back and watched some old Kurt Angle WWE vids and wow, I forgot how incredible he was. When people talk about the best wrestlers I seriously wonder if he should be tops on the list. He was excellent in the ring and on the mic. He could play any type of character. He was a better wrestler than Rock and Austin and just as good at cutting promos

We don't get TNA in Canada so I don't know how that's been going for him these past 6 years or so, but man, I hope he comes back to WWE when he wants to retire

I think the "Yes!" chants now sweeping the nation at sporting events finally forced Triple H and Vince to look themselves in the mirror and see how foolish they've been trying to kill off any steam that Bryan has. Who knows, maybe this was the plan all along?

It's part of what keeps me watching. For all we know, maybe Vince and Triple LOVE Bryan and always intended for him to eventually have his WWE title run, but only when the time is right.

Makes sense.
I'd have Batista win the rumble again, to face Orton at WM30 for the title as a face.
Leading to a heel turn after WM30, as he would be the champion the Authority have been craving & what's "good for business".
Creating a Batista vs CM Punk program. (Batista helped CM Punk win 1st major title)

My prediction is that Daniel Bryan wins the Royal Rumble. Setting up a huge match with John Cena at Wrestlemania, for the title. I actually think that's the best main event WWE can go with at this point considering how over Bryan is with the fans, and the obvious story line there. Fan favorite/underdog vs. the "face" of the WWE. More room to play with all that "best for business stuff", this time with Cena taking the heat instead of Orton. That's what a lot of fans want. I would personally enjoy that.

Meanwhile, I think both Brock and Batista finish off their respective feuds with Del Rio and Big Show (which will both inevitably be uninteresting), and then in the Rumble, Brock will eliminate Batista, or vice verse, setting up a big match between them at Mania. Another perfect match for the top of the card IMO.

If you have Cena vs Bryan in the main event, Batista vs Brock, a triple threat match with Reigns vs Ambrose vs Rollins, and then convince Stone Cold to wrestle Punk (which has been rumored), this could turn out to be one of the best Wrestlemania cards in a while. I'm sure WWE will screw it up though.

It's true, it's true. Oh, it's damn true!

Lesnar is facing Big Show at the Rumble. I don't think Lesnar goes into the Rumble match.

Also, here's more on Daniel Bryan...

http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/201 ... ning-back/

When WWE first had Daniel Bryan join The Wyatt Family on RAW a few weeks back, they had two matches lined up for him at WrestleMania XXX - one that would see him still a member of the group and one that would have had him back to being a babyface. There was no real solid plan on turning Bryan back babyface but it was not supposed to happen just two weeks later, like they ended up doing.
The idea was that Bryan would either turn back at Elimination Chamber, setting up Bryan vs. Bray at WrestleMania XXX, or he would turn at WrestleMania after coming out for a tag match with Wyatt. This would have guaranteed the big babyface reaction at WrestleMania.

Word within WWE is that the company was "100% fully embarrassed" by the footage of the Michigan State crowd all chanting "yes!" in unison. The footage ended up everywhere online and on TV shows, with Bryan and WWE getting a mention. WWE wanted to run with the Daniel Wyatt storyline but, "when you have a whole college arena doing "yes!" chants and most likely others will, plus NFL stars in the post-season doing it," WWE felt they had no choice but to hurry and turn Bryan back on RAW.

http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/201 ... oncussion/

Regarding Daniel Bryan's concussion suffered on last week's RAW, the feeling is still that it's pretty serious. As noted, he was kept off this weekend's live events and was at home resting.
Bryan managed to get through the match last week without missing any spots. However, at the end of the show when he was on top of the cage leading the "yes!" chants, right before the show ended Bryan suddenly stopped and sat there, looking around like he was unsure. A WWE stagehand laid on the ground, looked up at him and started gesturing for him to keep chanting. Bryan just looked at the guy seemingly completely confused. Bryan later told WWE officials that he barely remembered anything that happened in the cage.

Word going around this weekend is that Bryan's planned Royal Rumble match against Bray Wyatt is off.

Backstage, Bryan's big moment was a hot topic. A source said, "The whole backstage was in awe. Vince McMahon loves Bryan."

I respectfully disagree...he might have been the most sound wrestler but there aren't any better promo cutters than rocky and stone cold. I wasn't even a stone cold fan but the most memorable moments are Austin vs McMahon by far. Honestly I forgot Kurt Angles catch phrases and all that stuff until I saw it but Rock and Stone Cold everyone knows. I'd give 3rd place to Chris Jericho on promo cuts I think he's so underrated. And as I rant what happened to Kane...I remember when he first debuted and ripped a steal cage open. They should have never made him talk fall in love etc. Kane when he first started was amazing dude was straight up unstoppable. I miss the days when Kane would just random interfere in very match by choking slamming every contestant on raw or stone cold stunning every contestant on raw.

Sheamus vs Bryan is set up for WM30.

Only thing I can think of, Sheamus returns at RR & joins the Wyatts to screw Daniel Bryan.
