[insert anti-TNA comment here] :lol

[Guest Jayfunk]

TNA live is meant to be great

[Guest HH-Evolution]

I freaking LOVE the Royal Rumble - I am DEFINITELY watching this one...should be awesome.

[Guest steenerico]

I usually make the effort and stay up for the pau per views. I've got no doubt that the rumble will be worth the monday off.

 

Here's to hoping orton gets the better of sheamus in the rumble itself

[Guest Fatherof10minis]

If Cena wins Im gonna be sorely disappointed. I would love to see Orton flip back to a heel and make a run for Mania.

[Guest awstevans]

Ziggler Mecha-Push

Hold MITB and Wins the rumble. Challenges Alberto Del Rio. then cashes in the other match.

 

Realism- 1%

but would be a cool twist

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Brock to win it

[Guest Jayfunk]

Alberto Del Rio only role is to job to zigger i am certain of it

[Guest Jamster26]

Here's to hoping that the Rumble is better than last year. One of my least favourite Rumbles.

[Guest Ciaran The King]

Sheamus winning it says it all really

[Guest Jamster26]

I was very dissapointed that he won from memory.

[Guest John Hancock]

I imagine Cena will win and everyone will weep.

[Guest Jamster26]

I can genuinly see that happening, John.

[Guest Beefhead]

Oh yeah for sure. Rock beats Punk, cena wins rumble. Rock/Cena WM.
