Re: Royal Rumble 2013 Match Card Predictions
(c) = Champions, (w) = Winners.
Team Hell No (c) vs Team Rhode Scholars (w) - WWE tag team titles. (The Corre interferes and costs Team Hell No)
Kaitlyn (c)(w) vs Eve - Divas title.
Big Show (c)(w) vs Randy Orton - WHC. (Ziggler cashes in MITB on Show post match)
Royal Rumble match - Ryback (w).
The Rock vs CM Punk (c)(w) - WWE title.
I reckon Cena will somehow screw The Rock out of the WWE title, leading to a 'once in a life time' rematch at Mania. Ryback will challenge Punk at Mania for the WWE title, while the Ziggler cash in will set up a four way at Mania between Ziggler, Orton, Show and Sheamus. That's not what I want, just a throwaway prediction.
Before anybody says anything I must state that there's a reason why I don't bet!
Im hoping for a 40 man rumble myself, I know theres a few people that think WWE will have trouble finding 30 entrants but I think 40 can be easily squeezed

Obvious Royal Rumble match; no clue who will win at this time. Ryback maybe.
Obvious Rock vs. Punk match for the WWE Championship.
World Heavyweight Championship match, but I'm hoping Dolph cashes in before the PPV so he's champion.
John Cena vs. Big E Langston.
I really really hope that Undertaker is in the rumble match, not to win because that's not gonna happen at the state of his age/career/life, but just for nostalgia. Basically the same way they used him for RAW 1000 and just go out there to help out and chokeslam people all the way to hell and tombstone people, but of course try their best to eliminate him without him looking weak - which is easy.
I'd love when Kane, Bryan, or Ryback come out in the rumble, they have a 5 moves of doom, Ryback goes for shell shock on someone or Kane goes for chokeslam on someone or Daniel goes for "No" Lock on someone and then the Shield immediately comes out to ambush them and then as soon as the countdown is over for number (insert number here), 3.. 2.. 1.. DING! And then..
The gong hits, the crowd goes wild and chants "Undertaker! *clap 5x*" a bunch of times, he finally gets in the ring after like 30 minutes because his entrance is so long, Shield attempts to ambush him and then (considering Taker's age and obvious injuries because of the past) Taker pushes them all off on him, does a big boot, knocks em all out, etc etc, chokeslams Rollins - because he's basically the bump machine and sell machine of this group - tombstones Roman Reigns or whatever his name is, Taker eliminates Rollins or Ambrose, one of the other members of the Shield capitalizes like Orton did in '09, eliminates Taker, Taker gets mad like he did in that one Rumble a few years ago, eliminates the member that eliminated him, chases the rest of The Shield off, boom.
So basically it'll be a nostalgia moment for all of us. Although I feel like my idea is ridiculous because then people would question how they're moving on from Undertaker attacking him in the Rumble, and it would just be a mess, but it would be cool for Taker to come back and attack them all in the Rumble rather than see Ryback attack them every week like usual, it'd be nice to see someone else fighting them off for a change, a guy who actually isn't green in the ring and is one of the best of all TIME.
