[Aquabot]

Nia Jax over Sasha Banks

Gallows/Anderson over Cesaro/Sheamus to win the tag belts, which leads to the end of the Cesaro/Sheamus team.

Bliss, Natalya, and James over Lynch, Naomi, and Bella when James pins Lynch.

Neville over Swann clean to win the CW Title

Charlotte over Bayley via some sort of shenanigans to keep her streak intact until WM

Cena over Styles clean in another classic.

Owens over Reigns via shenanigans

Rumble match- Heart says Goldberg. Head says it's going to be someone unexpected. Maybe Strowman?

Roman beats Owens
Styles retains
Neville wins
Lynch, Bella, Naomi
Gallows and Anderson
Banks

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

If Angle enters he better win.

If he doesn't enter then I don't care who wins just as long as the match is worth my time.

Very excited for Styles vs Cena, it should be the best match on the card.

Styles wins.
Hope Sasha wins.
Hope Reigns and Charlotte lose

picks/notes in bold

30 entrants* Royal Rumble Over-the-top-rope eliminations--corbin or a returning balor
Kevin Owens (c) vs. Roman Reigns Universal Championship No disqualifications, shark cage^
AJ Styles (c) vs. John Cena World Championship--probably drops it at the chamber
Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Bayley Women's Championship (Raw)--will continue until mania most likely
Rich Swann (c) vs. Neville Cruiserweight Championship
Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella, Naomi vs. Alexa Bliss, Mickie James, Natalya--Team bliss, this womens thing will probably continue until elimination chamber

Cesaro & Sheamus (c) vs. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson Tag Team Championship (Raw) Two referees (Kickoff Show)
Sasha Banks vs. Nia Jax-Nia jax has to win or she's pretty much done for. I think were good without having to see sasha/charlotte again for a bit

[the ambush]

Jericho wins his first rumble.

 

[The Judo Champ]

i say the miz wins

 

[Edwin]

Considering Joe was shown at the NXT show and he wasn't booked on it, there's a good chance the rumors of him debuting in it seem to have taken even more light. I hope he does and he ends up getting a good push on the main roster.

 

[asdf122345]

Goldberg wins the rumble and retire winning the belt at wrestlemania against roman reigns.

 

[Ozymandias]

I believe there is still 8 open spots. Who will they be?

My guess

1. Finn Balor
2. Tye Dillinger
3. Samoa Joe
4. Sting
5. Jerry Lawler
6. Kurt Angle
7. Shaq
8. Cena or Styles (whoever loses)
