Royal Rumble

Um, yeah, the, the combinations in WWE, none of them feel fresh.

Like, what titles aren't there for Bayley to win? Even in 2024, when, like, with Triple H at the wheel, she won the Royal Rumble and then won the WWE title-

Mm

... at WrestleMania.

Rumble season's gonna be here before you know it.

He's an odds-on favorite, probably gonna win the Royal Rumble, and more than likely the plan is Roman Reigns and Oba Femi at WrestleMania for the World's Heavyweight Championship.

Him mixing it up with Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker, getting a couple wins over, over Logan Paul possibly and, a- and the other guy there, Austin Theory.

Austin Theory.

And if you're not willing to let somebody outside of a Seth or ...

Like Bron would be perfect, 'cause he's on the brink.

Oba, I think we wait till Royal Rumble for him.

But to me, if that's not what this is, then what's the point of Money in the Bank? Well, I'll tell you what it is.

Orton's heel turn isn't just a random fall program.

I think he eventually takes the championship from Punk, Cody wins either the Rumble or Elimination Chamber, and we get the definitive mentor versus student match." [sighs] I guess telling it to not use the internet to come up with predictions is like telling you not to use air to breathe.

A bit difficult to do.

But it's still relatively shocking given that this is easily searchable information.

He's due a title shot from King of the Ring.

We keep forgetting that.

And if not, there's also the Royal Rumble.

And Oba Femi, if he's in the Rumble, is a heavy favorite to win.

No, don't, don't put it, don't.

It's not as bad as Roman Reigns in 2015 Royal Rumble, okay? That's bad bad.

That's bad no matter what.

That's not even Tribal Chief because it just hit different.

'Cause now he's gonna have to go through this.

He's gonna go through what is gonna last through Survivor Series.

And then what? Royal Rumble, then he finally goes for the title? Is, is that...

Can we wait that long? Can you wait that long, Santi?

... uh, we got Money in the Bank, gotta try to get that briefcase 'cause it's full of so many human monies.

And then Royal Rumbles.

Oh, yeah.

Imagine that first year.

Centralia planted the seed for what developed into the cinematic version of the town of Silent Hill.

Uh, the waterfall in the beginning of the film is the Devil's Punch Bowl in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, AKA WWE wrestler Ethan Page's hometown, and where the first ever Royal Rumble took place in 1988.

So there's some wrestling facts for you.

Christophe Gans originally wanted Cameron Diaz to play the role of Cybil.

That's because it's...

That's like their Royal Rumble.

It's like...

Okay.

Got to try to get that briefcase because it's full of so many human monies.

And then Royal Rumbles.

Imagine that

first year.

Yeah, I think we can all agree there.

So Coach is holding a meeting of all the raw Royal Rumble entrants in the back.

I'm able to notice Matt Hardy, Spike Dudley, Booker T, Hurricane, Rico, Goldberg, RVD, Jericho, Test, Christian, Randy Orton, Mark Henry, and Rene Dupree.

Coach tells the assembled talent that since SmackDown got the number one entrant, Bischoff got the number 30.

I mean, how good of friends are you if you wouldn't, you know, give up this opportunity? You know, I don't know.

I've been racking my brain thinking, like, who's the bigger jerk here? Is it Christian for asking, or is it Jericho? you know not giving it to him i don't know i think both make valid points so uh maybe they should have settled it

i would say that christian is a jerk for asking but but jericho is a jerk for all the reasons that christian lists off absolutely Now, it's also – but Christian also gets bonus points for being stupid in that he's asking for a chance to be in a – I almost said battle royal – an over-the-top challenge that he'd have to win to get number 30 and then win the Royal Rumble on top of that to get a title shot.

If we're just passing out favors willy-nilly, why not say, hey, you owe me, get me a title shot.
