Why would they trot out boogeyman? Was that gimmick ever really over?
ReplyDeleteSting,you lazy ass vigilante...
The Boogeyman is exactly the ECW that Philly would want. First choice was the Zombie, who died earlier this month.
ReplyDeleteBoogeyman got one of the biggest reactions from kids at a house show I went to, perhaps only second to Big Dave.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised WWE bothers to keep Layla under contract. Maybe Dunn has a raging hard on for her too, otherwise what's the point? They don't use her at NXT when she's not with the main roster, and she's on TV maybe a month out of the year. We've had more "When's Layla returning" news over the years than "what has Layla done on TV" by a wide margin.
ReplyDeleteI know it's only the Boogeyman, and I know it's only a rumour, but I could live without that kind of stuff being reported without potential spoiler warnings.
ReplyDeleteI'm expecting a semi-smart crowd (not as much as last year), but even then, who knows? I wouldn't but that's me.
ReplyDeleteStay off the internet then.
ReplyDeleteI want to know in case he's coming to get me!
ReplyDeleteHide your worm farms!
ReplyDeleteI hate spoilers too, but I check the blog daily and check F4Wonline at least twice a day, so I'm always tempted even if I don't want to know spoilers.
ReplyDeleteI'm ok with Boogeyman being in there but between him, Rose, and Mizdow's obvious comedy spots i think its gonna be a little comedy-heavy.
ReplyDeleteFoolish mortal! Never underestimate Torito and Hornswoggle!!
ReplyDeletePunk got his Wolverine mutton chops going here.
ReplyDeleteIf the Rock is in the Rumble, maybe Rusev tossing him out is Rusev's big moment...but I'm not sure how that would get to Cena.
ReplyDeletethere should be 1 rumble with just legit guys to win, old timers, surprise comebacks, and kofi
ReplyDeleteWhat about RAVEN?
ReplyDeletePunk vs. Rollins would be a helluva singles match. Damn.
ReplyDeletejohnny polo sure but fuck raven
ReplyDeleteWatching Bryan vs Wyatt from last years Rumble. Wyatt doesn't get enough credit for his brawling. Crisp punches and clotheslines, great Brody-ish body language. In a time machine he'd have been great in Mid South or ECW.
ReplyDeleteBoogeyman is still undefeated at WM. Someone needs to carry on the streak now Undertaker's one is over.
ReplyDeleteOr alternatively, garner enough common sense to provide a cut.
ReplyDeleteMe too, but F4W at least put that kind of stuff under a cut.
ReplyDeleteThink I am going to write a short story based on my Scott Steiner Ghost Hunter idea. May post it on the blog.
ReplyDeleteI remember looking too into it and noticing Edge had one going for a while (6 or 7 Mania's, I think). I don't think anyone else had as long a streak without a loss.
ReplyDeleteHaving listened to Punk's podcast, you can see the pain on his face every time he hits the mat.
ReplyDeleteI know where you're coming from and agree there should've been a jump cut, but I would click it even if I didn't want to know. Pandora's box syndrome.
ReplyDeleteAwesome opener. The PPV was in the toilet the rest of the way, in a fun, trainwreck kind of style.
ReplyDeleteLast years Rumble? Dude looks like he's about to die midway, hiding in the corner out of the camera's view. No way he should've stayed in if he had a concussion.
ReplyDeletei'm still surprised they allowed punk to go for an hour at last year's rumble
ReplyDeleteYeah I thought they were going to do Edge v Taker streak v streak match originally but they stupidly had Edge lose the MITB match the previous WM. Right now I think all 3 Shield guys are undefeated at WM and hopefully WWE will be smart to protect all 3 guys going into WM.
ReplyDeleteI'm talking about the staph infection or whatever it was. He's already cringing legit early on here.
ReplyDeleteOh. This is where the party is.
ReplyDeleteROYAL!
ReplyDeleteRUMBLE!
2015!
Dynamite!
Philly will surely greet The Boogeyman with open arms!
ReplyDeleteWhat time does the network preshow start?
ReplyDeletewell he is a former ecw guy
ReplyDeleteWell according to that one dumb fuck on here Sting isn't over anyway so its NBD that he won't be there.
ReplyDeleteE-C-DUB!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Boogeyman is hardcore!
7PM EST is the usual time I assume that is the case tonight.
ReplyDelete7pm
ReplyDeleteThe undercard for the Rumble is really awful.
ReplyDeleteMan, they suck at this surprise entrant deal.
ReplyDeleteIf you could pick anyone to be a surprise entrant tonight, who would you pick?
ReplyDeleteThe whole day is like one big erection. Can't wait to bust for the RUMBLE tonight!
ReplyDeleteTo be fair it's hard to keep things like this a secret from every single person with a phone.
ReplyDeletePunk. Definitely.
ReplyDeletethe mountie
ReplyDeleteNorman Smiley
ReplyDeleteThey had to have him look strong if he was going into a feud with Hunter.
ReplyDeleteTo the person upset a few of the wrestlers in the WWE believe the Boogeyman will be making a surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble, I apologize. Send me your address and I will have that Whitman's Sampler on its way ASAP
ReplyDeleteJoMo
ReplyDeleteI assume that insult was aimed at me?
ReplyDeleteIf he was over through name value they wouldn't need to have his name thrown out every week by their top heels, nor would he need to twice save the ACTIVE wrestling talent by taking care of the big threat whilst the guys who are going to be there long term are laid out on the mat.
You could put anybody in Sting's spot and he would be just as if not more over.
Tom Zenk
ReplyDeleteBilly Jack Haynes
ReplyDeleteNever trust a Whitman
ReplyDeletePeople keep saying that they expect a hijacking. With that undercard I expect the crowd to be totally dead by the time the Rumble and title match starts.
ReplyDelete#TrollHarder
ReplyDeleteKurt Angle, but he resigned with TNA. So... I don't know, anyone fun.
ReplyDeleteDiBiase Snr
ReplyDeleteYou, sir, are a fool.
ReplyDeleteMe
ReplyDeleteThat's not at all what I meant.
ReplyDeleteHBK
ReplyDeleteThis. A thousand buys.
ReplyDeleteTrish Stratus
ReplyDeleteI doubt any hijacking takes place tonight. This show has next to no momentum going in. Its only the Rumble match itself that sells the show because the feuds are garbage and the other matches, besides the title, are the type of stuff you see on Main Event.
ReplyDeleteSeriously. He's been on this for months and no amount of reality is going to change his position.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather the Rumble be loaded than all the big names on the undercard and putting a long list of jobbers in it.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't they put these guys that are supposed to be surprise entrants in a different hotel than the main roster? Rock hanging around where everyone else is ruins the suspense.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be funny if NAO end up squashing Ascension.
ReplyDeleteThat would have been fantastic.
ReplyDeleteBecause if someone has a different opinion to you, it makes them a troll?
ReplyDeleteYou are aware that your first post on this thread was calling someone a dumb fuck without provocation.
Trying to start an argument for no reason is pretty troll like behaviour.
Weather update: There's a high probability Smackdown is cancelled or has to be moved. Couldn't pick a worse spot than Boston on Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteYou know what I'm happy The Boogeyman might be in. We're ten years out from the mid-2000s, let it rip!
ReplyDeleteSimon Dean would be the best surprise entrant. Mostly because the holdover ECW fans will be pissed he's not Nova.
Might as well. The Ascension are a joke
ReplyDeleteMaybe Booker T will get up from the announce booth and cause him to be eliminated, setting up an epic Mania rematch.
ReplyDeleteAccording to the bookies over here there is more chance of Angle winning it than Cesaro
ReplyDeleteNope. Just someone who keeps repeating nonsense despite it being utterly stupid and disproven over and over is a troll. Hence why you are one.
ReplyDeleteIf Cena wins I expect a pretty big negative reaction. Outside of that I think the crowd will be totally dead, outside of a big pop if Bryan wins.
ReplyDeleteI see your time away as made you less confrontational.
ReplyDelete...but aren't you afraid he's coming to getcha?
ReplyDeleteWill Booker T wear pants this time? Or will he give Boogey a new kind of worm to eat.
ReplyDeleteThey can always move the taping or just take some filler matches before and after Raw.
ReplyDeleteSean Waltman.
ReplyDeleteWHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteLike most sequels, this thread sucks.
ReplyDeleteI ruined someone's day by breaking this "newz"
ReplyDeleteYou're at a wrestling news site the day of the 2nd biggest PPV of the year, one that is known for pulling surprises.
ReplyDeleteShield and Punk should have teamed up here and dominated this Rumble.
ReplyDeleteReally? Who?
ReplyDeleteNothing, words on the internet have no meaning.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the thread later, it's always more entertaining than the show.
ReplyDeleteIf I was a rich man I would be flying to Philly to buy from a scalper for tonight. I'm all caught up in it.
ReplyDeleteRUMBLE FEVER!!!
Trying to liven the place up with more news. Either retarded emails or retro reviews besides this.
ReplyDeleteWhich part of my posts is wrong in your reality? Did you not watch the same shows as the rest of us. Did you not see Ziggler/Rollins laid out at SurSeries for 5 minutes so Sting could do his big hero bit to get fans to care about him? Or did he not succeed in beating the authority's plan on Monday when all the uppercard faces had failed?
ReplyDeleteWe get you're a Sting mark, but really, you do realise there is no reason why in 2015 he should be positioned on top of the WWE.
Ziggler's pop was pretty loud here.
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S THE FUCKING SPIRIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL... I know some people that should have to write that 1000 times.
ReplyDeleteThe Boogeyman = Worst "Surprise" Ever.
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteOnly name I can really think of who meant something to wrestling and I would mark out for. So WWE will give us Brian Christopher instead.
ReplyDeleteBryan helped him look like a killer. Cena... did not.
ReplyDeletePunk did that in 2011 with the Nexus, smart idea on paper but really dull to watch.
ReplyDeleteThe reanimated corpse of Chris Benoit has a better chance than Cesaro.
ReplyDeleteHartford on Monday isn't looking great, either.
ReplyDeleteSomeone below was pissed I didnt inlcude a jumpcut for an unconfirmed report about Boogeyman being a surprise entrant. I told him to email me for a Whitman's Sampler but nothing. Nothing!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the last part, but saying he isn't over is just stupid.
ReplyDeleteHe probably lied about it just like he lied about his age.
ReplyDeleteIts up there.
ReplyDeleteIt's clearly a *wrong* "opinion". Sting's debut got a monster pop (Go to YouTube and watch the fan recordings). To suggest some ham and egger (Thanks Bobby Heenan) could garner the same response is juvenile and stupid.
ReplyDeleteSatan pretty much did last night if you feel like reading that dumpster fire of a flame war.
ReplyDeleteYou still got it *clap clap clapclapclap*
ReplyDeleteThey're having fun, Maggle?
ReplyDeleteWell then he has a valid complaint... this will rip apart the very fabric of WWE booking for years to come.
ReplyDeleteIts why I offered a Whitman's Sampler. I ruined the poor guy's day.
ReplyDeleteUso, you dumbfuck, don't go to the top rope in a rumble.
ReplyDeleteI have a better chance, and I don't think I could get there in time for the match.
ReplyDeleteLast years thread for the Rumble was probably the best I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteYellow box Whitman's that have the caramels and nuts, or white box Whitman's that are mostly chocolate covered crèmes?
ReplyDeleteMy choice is AJ Styles
ReplyDeleteStarting the '92 Rumble.
ReplyDeleteI'm still hoping for Dudley interference in that match.
ReplyDeleteChris Benoit could, amirite
ReplyDeleteAt this point it has to be both.
ReplyDeleteWhat former ECW wrestlers are they going to trot out tonight? I'm going with Justin Credible and The Sandman with a further outside shot of Perry Saturn
ReplyDeleteI think the Boogeyman was what did it. DDP on the other hand... he's a spoiled surprise worth getting giddy for. :D
ReplyDeleteDusty Rhodes dressed in paint and vinyl outfit as Dusty Dust.
ReplyDelete:Boogeyman comes out, starts chewing on some worms and bangs the clock to his head:
ReplyDeleteJBL: Look at him having fun put there Maggle! Ha ha ha, I love it!
Maybe RVD or the Dudleys. Does Dreamer work for TNA? If not, he would be a choice.
ReplyDeleteCan they just have Cena/Rollins/Lesnar go 90 minutes and the Rumble go 90 minutes and fuck everything else (that I couldn't name with a gun to my head anyway)
ReplyDeleteI actually wouldn't be surprised about Saturn considering how tight him and HHH are.
ReplyDeleteGet that watch from the Twilight Zone that stops the world around you and steal a boat. We'll wait. :D
ReplyDeleteAlberto De... sorry I couldn't get through it with a straight face!!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, its like an episode of Main Event.
ReplyDelete...except it is still on the network!
ReplyDeleteThe Warlord.
ReplyDeleteCredible better come out to the X-Factor theme.
ReplyDeleteI hope they give the Triple Threat lots of time. I'd love a PPV match that isn't a Rumble go 40 minutes.
ReplyDeleteWhich also means you can't be thrown over the top rope.
ReplyDeleteMost overrated actress of the century: Emma Stone.
ReplyDeleteBryan is now a slight favorite in one's site betting at +100, with Reigns at +110.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the explosion going to be like here if Cena and Reigns win?
ReplyDeleteKurt Angle.
ReplyDeleteThe wrestler who sells the most merchandise is the most beloved.
ReplyDeleteI want foam hands and over sized bobbleheads to return.
Natalie Portman.
ReplyDeleteThat just switched recently then.
ReplyDeleteNow you're spoiling the script! :P
ReplyDeleteHe is over because of the way he has been used. If the WWE put anyone else in the exact same spot and had them achieve the same stuff, they would be as much if not more over by now.
ReplyDeleteSting is no longer a major name, he was maineventing shows to 100 people, the face of two companies. one of which died 14 years ago the other is a running joke.
She's not funny.
ReplyDeleteMy explosion will be me getting the hell outta here in record time haha.
ReplyDeleteShe was good in Black Swan. When has Stone been good?
ReplyDeleteOr talented.
ReplyDeleteNot tight enough for HHH to help him out when he was homeless.
ReplyDeleteWWE.com now has Rock on the front page. He's up to something for sure.
ReplyDeleteHe's up to ELECTRIFYING!
ReplyDeleteUso crazy!
ReplyDelete19 upvotes away from 30,000.
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing. I only go up to 11.
ReplyDeleteJ-E - Double F J - A - Double R - E - Double T
ReplyDeletemeryl streep
ReplyDeleteIt seemed like nobody could findPerry when he was homeless. Much less help him.
ReplyDeleteNot Really.
ReplyDeleteI want Reigns to win so badly just to find out.
ReplyDeletelena dunham
ReplyDeleteCooking something. I can smell it!
ReplyDeleteHopefully none of the above. Real ECW died 14 years ago. Let it stay dead without bringing back bottom of the card scrubs like Justin Credible.
ReplyDeleteDownvote.
ReplyDeleteUpvote.
ReplyDeleteThat record won't be broken.
ReplyDeleteHE'S HAVING FUN, BAYGGLE!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah. Definitely RVD with a chance of the Dudleys or Dreamer. That's it.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to pass on healthy eating tonight and get some pizza.
ReplyDeleteSeeing how its been the plan since the Summer, I dont think it will be that much if Reigns wins. Cena makes no sense winning the Rumble though.
ReplyDeleteDoes she even count?
ReplyDeleteWe can't let him reach it. The 30,000 club is too much for any one man!
ReplyDeletePie?
ReplyDeleteSylvester Stallone as Rocky Balboa.
ReplyDeleteWhy not just make the 10 louder?
ReplyDeleteRVD is automatic, wouldn't be surprised if Sabu is the next man out and they do a sequence for old times sake. Outside of that, maybe Sandman and that's it. Tommy Dreamer would be there if he wasn't hooked up with TNA, but outside of him everyone else is either dead/retired or in the case of people like Credible, fucking useless.
ReplyDeleteThough the Dudleys might be there, and a Jerry Lynn appearance wouldn't shock me. Random: back when he was feuding with RVD I was dating a chick named Jeri Lynne.
when the entire media jizz over everything that she does, yes
ReplyDeleteMaybe HHH should have threatened to kill Moppy on Raw unless Saturn called him.
ReplyDeleteI got a feeling you're gonna have blue balls.
ReplyDeleteThe Help? Crazy, Stupid, Love? Didn't see those, so I don't know.
ReplyDeleteI thought she was good in her limited role on Superbad. Spider-man 1 was way too much sappy eyes.
chris jericho
ReplyDeleteTop 5 surprise entrants tonight:
ReplyDelete1. Rock
2. Hogan
3. Finn Balor
4. Batista
5. Bully Ray
Upvote whoring. I'm ashamed of you.
ReplyDeleteLast I knew, yeah, Dreamer works for TNA.
ReplyDeleteIts a wrestling holiday. Indulgence is acceptable.
ReplyDeleteRe-signed. Resigned means he quit and thus would be a viable surprise entrant.
ReplyDeleteI'm not far behind. 28,847 upvotes away from 30,000.
ReplyDeleteBoth would cause me an apathetic reaction
ReplyDeleteAttaboy. It's the Rumble! Live a little.
ReplyDeleteWasn't she in that movie with that guy who went crazy?
ReplyDeleteI think he meant Cena winning the title match.
ReplyDeleteThats more for her being the creator of the show I think instead of her acting, which sucks.
ReplyDeleteYou're one closer buddy. Living the dream!
ReplyDeleteNEGATIVE INFLUENCE!
ReplyDeletedoes the network not work on chromebooks?
ReplyDeleteOutside of #5 none of those people will be there, and fuck them if #s 1 and 2 are.
ReplyDeleteFalse.
ReplyDeleteThat was tons of fun to watch
