Rumble Rumors

By Scott Keith on 27 January 2017

There are a lot of rumors of different Rumble winners between Undertaker, Goldberg, Lesnar, Orton, Wyatt, and more. Do you think this may be a result of someone or someones in WWE (probably not Vince) actually knowing how to work the smart crowd for once?

Especially since Daniel Bryan or Finn Balor is coming back to win it anyway.

P.S. Sid is a shoe-in for a mystery participant, right?

Well, he WAS on that episode of RAW powerbombing Heath Slater, so…

I think the unpredictable nature of the match this year has more to do with the Wrestlemania card being such a clusterfuck just two months out. There’s no clear direction for anything but Goldberg/Lesnar, so with too many variables (such as the Fastlane/Elmination Chamber combo of PPVs to clog up February) you can’t really get a sense of where they’re going. It’s not the good "Everyone’s a star and I can’t decide!" type of unpredictability, it’s the new "No one’s a big enough deal to headline Wrestlemania and I don’t care who wins!" type. For me personally, at least.
