SmackDown wrestler (or Raw wrestler who declares for the SmackDown championship) wins. Roman Reigns wins Elimination Chamber match and gets the actual main event.

Good to hear from ya PVF!

Count me in as another part timer back for Mania season!
Yeah haven't watched a single bit of WWE since the last WrestleMania haha.

WhatCulture keeps me up to date.
 
The PPV I look forward to the most each year (mania included). Something about the Rumble match itself that has had me intrigued since the first one 30 years ago!

I haven't settled on a pick to win it at this stage yet but hoping for a couple of surprise returns.
 
So it's a triple threat match for the Universal title...

You know they say that all monsters among men are created equal, but you look at Brock Lesnar and you look at Braun Strowman and you can see that statement is not true. See, normally if a monster wrestler goes one-on-one with another monster wrestler, they got a 50-50 chance of winning. But Brock's a GENETIC BEAST and he has an advocate Jew in his corner. So Braun's got a 25% chance AT BEST, at beat him. Then you add Kane to the mix, Braun's chances drastic go down. See the 3-way, at Royal Rumble, Braun's got a 33 and a 1/3 chance of winning, but BROCK, Brock's got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because Kane KNOWS he can't beat Brock as he'll eat the eat the pin and then campaign for Mayor of Knoxville and he's not even gonna try!

So Braun Strowman, you take your 33 and a 1/3 chance, minus Brock's 25% chance and you got an 8 and a 1/3 chance of winning at Royal Rumble. But then you take Brock's 75% chance of winning, if they was to go one-on-one, and then add 66 and 2/3%, Brock's got 141 and 2/3 chance of winning at Royal Rumble. See McMarks, the number's don't lie and they spell disaster for the 3-way at Royal Rumble and the main event of WrestleMania!

So its 100% that Roman is last man standing in the Elimination Chamber.

Yeah, I always get hyped for the Rumble too. There sure have been some disappointing ones, though. I'd love it if they used the Rumble to elevate someone a little more fresh than Orton last year or Roman Reigns. A Nakamura win, for instance, would be cool, but I just can't imagine Vince doing that. The winners of the last several Rumbles haven't been all that inspiring - Orton, Triple H, Roman Reigns, Batista, Cena. The only young/fresh guy being elevated there was Reigns, but everyone hated him.

Maybe Angle will be a surprise entrant and win it.

o_O

I'm tipping Nakamura to win BUT smokey chance for Samoa Joe to win and jump to SDL.
 
Royal Rumble last 3

Ambrose, Roman and Rollins.

Rollins wins and challenges AJ with Roman winning the elimination chamber and becoming number 1 contender for Brock's title

Rollins comes up with the plan for the Shield to hold both championships.

Both men win and the next night on Raw Ambrose turns heel with the help from the AOP.

Its that easy WWE.
