Dolph Ziggler might be the first WWE name to jump ship. His contract will expire a month/month and a half before Double or Nothing and he hasn’t been on RAW in almost a month
Still waiting on that AEW announcement on a regular show.... I wonder if the offers are really that good after all.

Became big fans of the War Raiders. The tag match was a classic and the NXT Championship and North American Championship were outstanding. Super pumped for RR. Pete Dunne, Aleister Black, Velveteen Dream, Undisputed Era, Ricochet, possibly Ciampa, Kairi Sane, Toni Storm, possibly Baszler could all be surprises, each one I’d mark on
I wasn’t feeling takeover last night. It was still good though. I would love for Kofi to finally win one. Or at least get to the final four. For old school throwbacks, maybe Booker T. He had a match for his promotion a few weeks ago, maybe they’ll let him have a few minutes at the rumble. I think Drew Mac is gonna win. They’ve been making him look fantastic this past winter. For the women, I hope Melina and Layla are surprise entrants. But the winner will be the Man. As far as the matches are concerned, I am just happy to see Sasha get a title match at a big show. Sasha’s working me with her twitter and Instagram having me believe she’s gonna win. So let’s see Brock Bryan Rooonda Becky wins, but Asuka keeps title due to interference from some horses. I guess Rusev I’ll go with Kalisto doing Lucha things.
Just watched Ricochet/Gargano. Very good. I liked Ricochet/Cole a bit more. Sidebar: if Cole were like 4 inches taller he would be the biggest star in WWE. He is perfect and can literally do anything. But damn his height and his t-rex arms are gonna limit him in WWE. For tonight, I expect Braun to win.
Taking Finn to win somehow. Hoping. Bryan, Asuka and Ronda retain. Ember Moon to win the RR. Asuka v. Ember Moon at WM. I think McIntyre wins vs. Finn Balor at WM. It could easily be Rollins though. I think the Charlotte/Becky/Ronda WM main event they’re building too on the road to WM is something they wanna keep intriguing on how it comes together. Not taking the obvious approach of Becky or Charlotte winning keeps it up
Ronda is incapable of having a bad match, credit to Sasha she's like the female Dolph Ziggler, I mean that as a compliment
I haven't watched wrestling in at least a year, is there no men's Royal Rumble this year?? EDIT: nevermind I guess there is
With Becky winning and how she won it, it sets up a triple threat. Becky will challenge rooooonda. And Charlotte will say I was the last one in because you weren’t even suppose to be in it. Sasha vs rooooonda was good. Sasha made roooonda look good. She deserves more. She deserves better. Now she gets to be in tag team hell with Bayley. Sure. They may get to win it, but they’re gonna drop the straps to the bellas so they can have their 8th WrestleMania moment. I hate the rest periods in the royal rumble. You get jumped on the outside. And then you take a nap for a while. Hate it.
Am I the only one that doesn't get the Becky Lynch hype? Seems like she's good/not great at promos, in-ring work, etc., but now that she walks to the ring with some swagger (which feels very forced to me), everyone's losing their minds.
