When is it ? Sunday?

Diluted Dante

As always.

Pre-show at 10, main show at midnight.

mk64

Anyone fancy staying up with me and doing commentary?

Diluted Dante

I'll be up, you want colour or play by play?

mk64

How do you mean?

g.man

I'll probably be watching. Loves me a rumble, but it's going to be a fucker without the massive pops like this from the crowd.

Diluted Dante

Edge is going to be there at least.

MK, just a joke. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_commentator

mk64

Ah I’ll be graves

Diluted Dante

Ok, so you're Graves, I'll be Michael Cole, which I guess leaves g.man as Byron Saxton.

Frosty

Who is everyone's pick to win? Male and female rumbles

g.man

I'll have to think about it.

RedDave2

Well if you guys are the three man commentary team, I guess that leaves me to be....

The Toddster!

Might just give this a run on Sunday night. Although god knows how it works. Isnt there still a limit on how many people can be in the ring at one time due to covid? It will be like Royal Rumble on the Snes - max 6 people at anyone time.

mk64

haha

Or you could be Sean Mooney? (sp?)

Is that true ref covid?

Spoiler / Rumours

RedDave2

Ah, loved Mooney. He seemed so pissed off when he had to conduct interviews with the fans (to be fair, many seemed like hick yokels)

I have no idea on the covid thing - I remember a while back hearing that there was limits as to how many could be in the immediate area and that included the camera man but that must have changed because AEW always have a few people acting as the crowd.

It would be funny if the rule was changed to a new entrant every minute unless there are already 6 wrestlers in the ring.

Had a quick look online to see who is who in the wwe at the moment. Honestly dont know who would be the winners but if Drew is Champ, maybe lesnar to win the rumble? I think Drew knocked him out last year.

For the womans, my goodness I have no idea. Is Becky due back? Maybe Charlotte - WWE loves her heritage so I can see them giving her a rumble win (assuming she hasnt won it already?)

Diluted Dante

Charlotte won last years, but I wouldn't bet against her winning it again because the WWE love to push her down fans throats.

Currently declared (spoilered in case anyone would rather go in blind)

Spoiler:

mk64

i think i wanna go in blind, i'm less up to date this year then before

mk64

LMFAO

Diluted Dante

I assumed that was a Kayfabe News headline.

That could be pretty funny if they commit to the bit.

RedDave2

Wait... Goldberg is back and has a title match?

Didnt his match with the undertaker end in a near disaster?

Diluted Dante

Yes.

RedDave2

Looking at it, is Goldberg the worst guys to be paired against for a young guy? His treatment of the fiend and Kevin owens is crazy. Why is wwe booking him better now than they did when he had an actual upside back in 2003??

mk64

Had a dream I was in the crowd at WM and was plucked out to wrestle Jericho. As someone who’s never wrestled I did as good as I could but Jericho could see we weren’t getting the crowd over so stopped trying.

The match went flat and after the match Jericho wouldn’t speak to me.

Moral of the story. If you’re in a dream and get picked out to wrestle then don’t.

Diluted Dante

If you're actually at WrestleMania though, do it.

mk64

Lol what time does RR start?

Diluted Dante

10 for the pre-show, 12 for the main show.

g.man

Aye, think I'll pony up for this one and watch it on the big telly.

mk64

12 start? Ffs

g.man

It always is.

Howdy, Stranger!
