Well now that 2015 has begun we're getting ready for the first WWE PPV of the year, the big one, the Royal Rumble. We have an awesome lineup and for the first time I subscribed to the WWE Network just to see this spectacle. The WWE World Heavyweight championship is on the line in a triple threat match and the WWE Tag Team Championships are on the line in a tag team match as well. And of coarse the name of the game, a title shot at WrestleMania hangs in the balance as 30 wrestlers will try their damnedest to survive in the ring.
Match #1
The New Day (Big E Langston, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) vs. Masters of the WWE Universe (Tyson Kidd and Cesaro) and Adam Rose
Why would I pick the Masters of the WWE Universe? Because they're awesome. They're everything a modern tag team should be. They have the charisma, the moveset, the swagger and everything you could ask for in a transition for new tag teams while The New Day are just face Spirit Squad. Anyway they've also had the one-up in this feud leading up to the rumble so the safe bet it on them.
Match #2
The Ascension vs. The New Age Outlaws
The Ascension has come a long way in a rocky road ever since debuting in the WWE. Everytime they faced local competitors I would boo them because that is not what a dominant tag team does. Now it finally seems that the WWE has found a good tag team to put them over, the same guys who put over The Usos, The New Age Outlaws.
Match #3
Paige and Natalya vs. The Bella Twins
Finally Natalya is getting some friends in Paige which then ties into the Total Divas stuff that I haven't seen yet. This match does have the Divas Champion on the opposition of my picks but I'm sticking with my guns. Or you could just say I'm waiting for Tamina Snuka to return.
Match #4
The Usos (c) vs The Miz and Damien Mizdow for the WWE Tag Team Championships
Isn't Damien Mizdow just the most entertaining stunt double in the WWE history? He's the only one. Why not? The Miz and Damien Mizdow are always entertaining to see and I would love two entertaining WWE Tag Champs over two champs who have been the same boring thing since about a month or so after the first time they won the belts.
Match #5
Brock Lesnar (c) vs. John Cena vs. Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
Now this is risky but not as risky as my Rumble picks because this one could possibly happen. After the sight of both Cena and the champion Brock Lesnar being curb stomped by him made sure I root for him this rumble. Rollins has been the ultimate heel of late 2014 and is a very talented guy. He will be your new champion at the Royal Rumble and has his money in the bank briefcase as backup.
Match #6
The Royal Rumble Match
My picks to win it all in order from first to last: Kane, Luke Harper, Fandango
Okay, Okay, Okay. Chill out for a second and let me explain. The reason I picked Kane is that I believe out of the final four of 2001 he still should have won the Rumble. He didn't even necessarily needed to win at WrestleMania, just win at the Rumble. Why I picked Luke Harper is because he is talented and can go toe to toe with today's elite. Fandango is because he rules and it would be the biggest possible shocker if he won the Royal Rumble.
Who do you got?
