Can't stand Randy as a face, so this is rather hopeful, but the stuff with Capt. Charisma has got me thinking.

Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho
Could have been a Ladder Match?? Jericho is WHC level, not IC I reckon.

Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio vs. The Dudley Boyz
Plz split RVD and Rey Rey.

Smackdown Review
Main events sounds awesome and I like that Angle is added after what happened to OJ last week … good way to give the match more star power.

Cabinet starting again?? I know that they own but they started last week and Cena starting the show would have worked better this week, imo. JBL is as arrogant as ever and continues to hype the match at the RR … and then Cena comes out!! No need for much back and forth and the faces taking it to the heels was good … but here comes Angle!! Undertaker takes out Angle and this was good build for the main event.

The Cabinet leaving Angle is interesting. I hope that he abandons JBL later on tonight and this could signal an Angle face turn.

London and Chavo had some good matches back in 2005 and London getting in the RR is big for his career. I hope he gets the push he deserves.

Tables match with RVD & Rey facing … STORM AND CREDIBLE!! This is huge, imo and it adds to a weaker division on SD. Good to see the champs win and this makes the Impact Players look a little weak but Dudleys taking out the champs was pretty good. I think this sends a message but I see RVD and Rey retaining at the RR.

As I’ve said before … Carlito back at the RR … dat’s cool.

Different way to get Jindrak some airtime but I guess interrupting Torrie is the heel thing to do. Booker coming out and calling him out was exciting and I guess we got a match next!!

Jindrak wins with a hook of the tights!! Kinda shocking but this may signal a moderate heel push for a very good young superstar.

Main event is gonna be explosive and I see Cena’s team winning.

Kidman should be the CW Champion, imo. But Funaki is OK but pinning BK after only a missed SSP is kinda lame.

Cena’s team wins after Cena pins one of the jobber Bashams … this mean JBL’s winning at the RR, imo. Would’ve like some altercation between the others in the match before the RR but the ending did it’s job … by getting over the biggest feud on SD.

This was another average recap, JBL. I liked most of it but it is very hard to review recaps and give insight. I know this was just to get to the RR, which I am really looking forward to. Good show, 7/10.

FINAL CARD for WWE Royal Rumble
Date: January 30, 2005
Location: Save Mart Center; Fresno, California
Theme Song: “Find the Real”; Alter Bridge

30 Man Royal Rumble Match
–WINNER RECIEVES MAIN EVENT TITLE SHOT AT WRESTLEMANIA 21–
Batista, Big Show, Billy Kidman, Booker T, Carlito, Christian, Chris Jericho, Danny Basham, Doug Basham, Eddie Guerrero, Eugene, Kane, Kurt Angle, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, Muhammad Hassan, Orlando Jordan, Paul London, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Rob Conway, Rob Van Dam, Shelton Benjamin, Shawn Michaels, Stevie Richards, Tajiri, Triple H, Tyson Tomko, The Undertaker, William Regal

There has not been a very big standout heading up to the match but that makes it interesting. I think that Christian being involved in Orton vs. Edge makes me think he is heading to the main event. I don’t see someone from SD winning because Cena vs. JBL will happen again at WM21, imo. Christian has a great chance and makes a lot of sense.

WWE Championship Match
John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield vs. John Cena

As I have said in the review leading to this, Cena has had the advantage for the last three weeks. Cena was a great face in 2005 and he will get his time but I see it coming at WM21, not at a PPV where big title changes usually don’t happen. JBL to win with the help of the Cabinet.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Randy Orton vs. Edge

This has been a very good feud but Orton just got the belt and I don’t see another short reign. Edge will put up a hell of an effort but Orton will retain via the RKO. This could lead to possibly a Triple Threat at WM21 … Orton vs. Edge vs. Christian, imo.

Intercontinental Championship Match
Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho

Shelton OWNED in early 2005 and I don’t see Y2J holding the IC Title heading into the WM. I think Benji wins, with Jericho turning into a full-time heel. He needs something bigger heading into WM21.

WWE Tag Team Championships Match
Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio vs. The Dudley Boyz

Rey and RVD are great champs and the Dudleyz have had the advantage lately. Holding the belts for a while pushes both Rey and RVD into the main event and this is the first of many big wins.

PREDICTION CONTEST:
(Winner Receives 500,000 Pts.)

Question 1: Who will have the best performance in the Royal Rumble Match, but not win it? ‘Latino Heat’ Eddie Guerrero

Question 2: What will be the SPOT of the night? Benjamin will do something crazy onto about five other guys in the RR match.

Question 3: What match will open the show? WWE Tag Team Championships Match

Question 4: Will there be ANY surprises in the Royal Rumble Match? I can see The Big Show getting eliminated relatively early.

Question 5: How long will the Royal Rumble Match last? (Person who has the closest time wins this one) Sixty-Five Minutes.

Raw-
6 Man tag team main event. Cant wait

Opening segment was written fantastic. Orton showing his arrogance while been a Face is good. I like that because that is what makes Orton’s character. Anyway out comes christian. Great interaction between these two loved it but something makes me think that christian will cost one of these guys that Match at the rumble somehow??? Edge came out too soon I think we should have had more Orton Christian with christian ranting on about always been overshadowed by not only edge but also the booking team. Anyway loved some of the comedy between the two and a great classic line from Orton
“Because facing you for the World Heavyweight Title is like Jim Ross not wearing a Cowboy hat; it doesn’t make any sense” ROFL. HBK coming out to save Orton well HBK always makes them hero saves doesn’t he lol. Anyway great way to start of Raw.

Kane loosing to Hassan is fine. Kane has always had momentum leading upto the rumble no matter which rumble that is so I think that Hassan getting the momentum can only help himself more. Hopefully Hassan will last longer than the real one although I wouldn’t mind seeing some comedy lol Confidence from Tista there. Is this a heel turn for him or a face I am still confused onto what he actually his. I don’t see Tista going over on Flair not yet anyway. Eugene in the rumble!!

Trish over Victoria shouldn’t of happened not after what happened the week before. Victoria Lita and Trish at WM21 I see coming for some strange reason. Flair Tista started off legit but by the end I loved it. The planning was great and the booking was even better. Nice to see evolution is back at “Full Strength”. Cant wait for the rumble with these three guys.

Nice turn for Jericho hear. Hope you have some great feuds for the rest of the year planned for him!! Anyway nice win for the heels of raw. HBK-Christian didn’t see that coming but at the end the Edge gaining momentum at the end was great and what was needed. I either see Christian Costing Orton the championship or Orton overcomes them both at the rumble!!!

Smackdown-
Good main even booked for tonight heading into the Rumble!! OK opening segment for Smackdown here. A show down between the main event stars later on tonight but also the last in the build upto Sunday at the rumble. Undertaker clearing house is great. The only thing is you emphasised on how the cabinet were looking but I am sure that there would have been a shot of Gurrero Cena and Show!!

London can only add High Flying action to the Rumble. Dudleyz getting the momentum for Sunday is ok but I don’t see them retaining. Where is the stipulation for this Sunday??

Jindrack getting some time on smackdown why that is a first. Anyway great way to get him onto smackdown I just don’t agree with Booker jobbing. Booker should have been the one picking up the win. Kidman should of easily won this match. Guess you are either saving it for No Way Out or a “better” cruiserweight.

Well faces winning can only mean that someone heel is winning at the rumble. Cena pinning the on of the basham jobbers can only mean that JBL is walking out WWE Champion.

30 Man Royal Rumble Match
–WINNER RECIEVES MAIN EVENT TITLE SHOT AT WRESTLEMANIA 21–
Batista, Big Show, Billy Kidman, Booker T, Carlito, Christian, Chris Jericho, Danny Basham, Doug Basham, Eddie Guerrero, Eugene, Kane, Kurt Angle, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, Muhammad Hassan, Orlando Jordan, Paul London, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Rob Conway, Rob Van Dam, Shelton Benjamin, Shawn Michaels, Stevie Richards, Tajiri, Triple H, Tyson Tomko, The Undertaker, William Regal

No one has really had momentum going into the rumble so i think that is what makes it a unpredictable match. I have chosen two (1 From Raw and 1 From Smackdown). Christain because of the role and the way he has been booked recentley OR Undertaker because i see him having a long run with the gold in the not to near futrue of this thread!!

WWE Championship Match
John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield vs. John Cena

Cena has had too much momentum going into the Rumble although he has been booked well. Like i have said he need's a 'HUGE' Match at the 'Grandest Stage Of Them All' to prove to us that he is worthey of gold and that is what i feel you are going to do at Wrestlmania. Plus Cena hasnt lost while been on the road the rumble and if he was going to win the conteset he would of lost the United States Championship!!

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Randy Orton vs. Edge

This has been a great feud so far but Orton hasnt been Champion that long. Orton will win although i see you letting this match go at least 25 minutes. Orton wins and if Taker wins i see the World Heayweight Championship been between Taker and Orton at WM21

Intercontinental Championship Match
Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho

A title or two needs to change at the rumble so i say that Jericho will pick up the win and the Gold. Both have proven they are worthey of gold thanks to your booking but i see Jericho picking up the win and then you carry on Pushing Benjimain without gold!!

WWE Tag Team Championships Match
Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio vs. The Dudley Boyz

The chemstiry between these two teams is great. Rob & Rey will retain the gold at the rumble they deserve it. I think though that the dudleyz will put up a fight but Rey and Rob's high flying skills will get the better of them

Question 1: Who will have the best performance in the Royal Rumble Match, but not win it? Eddie Guerrero or Triple H

Question 2: What will be the SPOT of the night? Either Bejimain and Jericho will do something crazy or the rumble will provide us with a spot from some high flyers (Rob & Rey)

Question 3: What match will open the show? WWE Tag Team Championships Match

Question 4: Will there be ANY surprises in the Royal Rumble Match? A person who has been in a main event (Edge or Cena) will replace one of the jobbers in the rumble (Doug,Danny,Jindrack)

TKOW

30 Man Royal Rumble Match
–WINNER RECIEVES MAIN EVENT TITLE SHOT AT WRESTLEMANIA 21–
Batista, Big Show, Billy Kidman, Booker T, Carlito, Christian, Chris Jericho, Danny Basham, Doug Basham, Eddie Guerrero, Eugene, Kane, Kurt Angle, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, Muhammad Hassan, Orlando Jordan, Paul London, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Rob Conway, Rob Van Dam, Shelton Benjamin, Shawn Michaels, Stevie Richards, Tajiri, Triple H, Tyson Tomko, The Undertaker, William Regal
This is more about what I want to happen rather than what I think actually will happen. HBK wins the Rumble, jumps to Smackdown! and faces JBL for the WWE Championship in an awesome WrestleMania main-event feud. Plz.

WWE Championship Match
John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield vs. John Cena

There's no way Cena's taking the title yet. He's just not ready for it. I think we'll see interference from the Cabinet.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Randy Orton vs. Edge

I think Orton will hold onto the title all the way until (and maybe even past) WrestleMania. Otherwise what would be the point of you making him champion to start this thread, right? My guess is Triple H wins some sort of tournament, and faces Orton at WrestleMania.

Intercontinental Championship Match
Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho

Personally I think Jericho makes a much more entertaining champion than Shelton, and could do so much more with the title. However, people in WF seemingly can't resist giving Shelton a push. I think Shelton will retain, but Jericho will eliminate Shelton from the Rumble.

WWE Tag Team Championships Match
Rob Van Dam & Rey Mysterio vs. The Dudley Boyz
RVD & Rey should hold onto the titles because they're more entertaining than the Dudleyz. Also, we've seen the Dudleyz hold the titles numerous times - another title reign isn't needed. _____________________________________________________


PREDICTION CONTEST:
(Winner Receives 500,000 Pts.)

Question 1: Who will have the best performance in the Royal Rumble Match, but not win it?
Can it be anyone BUT The Undertaker?

Question 2: What will be the SPOT of the night?
Something big in the Shelton/Jericho match, by Shelton.

Question 3: What match will open the show?
I think Shelton/Jericho would be a great way to open the show.

Question 4: Will there be ANY surprises in the Royal Rumble Match?
The fact that you're asking is suggests that there will be. My guess is that someone like Christian eliminates The Undertaker.

Question 5: How long will the Royal Rumble Match last? (Person who has the closest time wins this one)
88 mins. Completely random.

Overall the card looks fantastic, JayBeeLoser. You've done a great job in booking this show. I'll definitely pop in to give you some feedback once it's been posted.

Christain vs. Edge Mania ...

WWE Championship Match
John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield vs. John Cena

These two should continue to feud to WM me thinks.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Randy Orton vs. Edge

A Christain Edge feud maybe?

Intercontinental Championship Match
Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho

Chris Jericho shouldn't hold the title into Mania and Shelton is a cool champ.
