Over the past years, it's been Orton, HHH, Reigns, Batista, Cena, Sheamus, Del Rio and Edge. I think I got that in the right order, idrk...but to me, Edge was the last good Rumble victory.

 

Just about every Rumble victory aside from maybe Del Rio and Orton's last year was sort of predictable. And that's not to really say that predictability in Rumble matches is a bad thing - because the winner of the Rumble match typically has a really good push and a lot of exposure leading up to the show - but most of the victories have been from guys that are already well-established stars that could practically jump in to that spot at any time with a few wins.

Hoping for Nakamura to win so we get Naka vs AJ at Mania.

 

But im expecting the same lame shit like Cena, Reigns or Orton.

 

That's the only other person I would love to see win it at this point that makes the most sense besides Braun.

I hope we get some colorful attires in this rumble match.. there's nothing worse than seeing majority of the superstars wearing black/dark attire in a ring. Half the time I can't tell who is who anymore.

Man if WWE got the nerve to do that to Philly again lol

They did it the first time, so why not?
Raw has Elimination Chamber next year and I don't think Brock's going to defend his title there, so Reigns will probably win a chamber match.

I mean, yeah, now that I think abou? it it is likely that he loses the IC belt and then win the Rumble. Ugh.

 

And then at EC he has to defend his number one contendership giving the fans that last shred of hope he won't main event Mania. Only for him to eliminate all 5 guys, one spear each. Ooh ah.

I think they are even going for the route of "OMG what a surprise" schtick. Because hey. everyone tried to beat Lesnar besides Roman Reigns. While he casually stroles the midcard lane... Then all of a sudden... What do you know? Spear.

Fans didnt want him in the main event all the time, so they kinda gave us that. While the booking of the show revolves around the grand story of him beating Lesnar...

 

Besides, SD had it last year.
