I still think Asuka's winning the belt on Raw to take her out of the Rumble and make the winner less obvious And by all accounts Ronda won't be in it

If it's not Asuka or Rousey winning the Rumble, I have no idea who wins, though. Probably somebody from SmackDown.

It should not be Asuka with the title because Ronda should win in 13 seconds.

I'm gonna laugh my rear end off if Dolph inexplicably wins the Rumble (despite nothing on TV even hinting at that), gets slotted in the biggest Mania match of his life (presumably third from the top with AJ) and still bitches and whines about not being pushed like a main eventer.

What does the McMahon/Austin/Tyson clip have to do with Ronda's debut? Is she going to end up feuding with Asuka or Stephanie or what?

Stephanie has also been preparing to return to the ring, and drat it she needs an ego rub every once in awhile. And the armbar logic could be explained by Asuka won a 4 second match with it, and the crowd found that really cool, so WWE could be trying to replicate that logic without actually understanding why.

I don't even know what the comedy option would be with Ronda Getting in a feud with Steph and losing, or Getting in a feud with Asuka and winning

I don't know what you do with Rhonda at all, because any match that goes longer than 30 seconds with her tapping out the other girl would be completely unrealistic. That would destroy all the other girls' credibility (not that they have much).

Chris James 2 posted:I don't even know what the comedy option would be with Ronda I could see Ronda going over either of them, the problem being is what was posted. It would destroy the other girl's credibility. As well as the entire division in general. Because no one could feasibly look realistic next to Ronda. Stephanie can take the hit because she tends to disappear for a couple of months after Wrestlemania anyways. People like Asuka, Charlotte, etc cannot. And if its a one off appearance, that's even worse. Ronda being part of the WWE Women's Division would be complete and utter cancer. And I have a feeling it would destroy the division to the point of where it could never be recovered. Because you KNOW WWE will book Ronda as an unstoppable monster that no one is ever allowed to go over. Also Chris James 2, I think Rovert brought it up elsewhere here, but apparently Ronda's contract may be a one and done thing.

Just a heads up, but there was a shift in the Womens Royal Rumble market this morning. Ronda is now a pretty heavy favorite at 4/6. Asuka is 5/2. Pretty much anyone who isn't named Ronda has had their odds fall dramatically.

What we need here is to piggyback on the immense success of an untouchable person in the division, like Brock. Why only kill the male side of the card? I'm all for equality.

You know thinking of surprises at the Rumble, wonder if any talks have happened with Neville and WWE that would lead to him being a surprise entrant.

DarkstarIV posted:Just a heads up, but there was a shift in the Womens Royal Rumble market this morning. So, when this gets brought up, what does it mean? Do all the books move to have similar lines, is there one major player that the others follow, or are we just talking about one site? Lines moving this far out based on smart money seems to be pretty much unprecedented. But, these sites have have a decent idea which accounts have the inside dirt, right? The betting limits are so small that it’s unlikely that the lines moved dramatically based on regular action by betters with no legit insider knowledge. But, I really don’t think we know how much action there really is on each of these. Maybe the voting public actually is moving the lines. Have the insider accounts bet early? Is there another reason that they would move the lines? The TV this year really hasn’t made much of an effort to show any major favorites. Usually you have a pretty short list, and we really aren’t seeing that this year, so I guess that makes a surprise like Ronda or DB more likely, but a surprise return/debut for both matches?

tbh I don't know why you bother debuting Ronda in the Rumble if she's not going to win it and I have a feeling most bettors at this point agree.
