I am going to break down and order this one. I am more interested in the rumble vs the individual matches. It is a shame they couldn't have kept Batista a secret for the rumble.

:no: Major line movement on the gambling sites. Batista was the big favorite yesterday, and went from -350 to +170 today. that is a huge swing in the gambling world, so take that for what you will

Stoked about the Rumble. They really need to bring back:

Amazing that Undertaker (only one in that group) is still active.

I would guess 1 return will be Sheamus. Possibly Jericho and Nash (both reported in Pittsburgh). Nash was a nice one time return at Rumble couple years back-- just meh on doing it yet again. Wish they'd saved Jake Roberts return to the Rumble, but probably didn't feel comfortable with him physically (even with all the lost weight). With the scare with Jerry Lawler, I doubt we see any aging vets return to in ring action.

I think Sting will return sometime after the Rumble. I don't see him facing Taker at Mania (see Lesnar doing that). While in good physical shape, not even sure we see Sting back in the ring at 55 years old. If we did, wouldn't be surprised if in tag match or singles match vs. Bray Wyatt. JMO I think both he and Taker would face younger guys if they return.

Good call on Jericho. He only works through Summerslam. Good gig on his part and he is still the ####.

I know it is in Pittsburgh. Jim Ross told us that Jericho was in Pittsburgh for a boat show today so I was confirming what you had posted.

And...I did not know that John Cena was a Small College All-American Football Player as a center

I suspect they don't do it that way most of the time now cause their ratings aren't what they used to be, so instead of taking a chance on having a surprise return happen on a Monday or even the Rumble, they probably figure that an announcement that such-and-such is returning will jack up ratings for that week's particular RAW.

 
What they should've have done is start a Batista-Brock program leading into a Mania match. Imagine Batista makes his return, clears the ring like an animal, then just waits for the buzzer. 3, 2, 1.....Brock's music hits. Crowd would go ape####.

Hasn't Sting been wrestling on iMPACT! for the past 3-4 years?

 
I never thought Batista was particular good on the mike and his personality is lacking, so I wasn't really excited to see him back. I would like to see him and Lesner go at it however.

I hope there a some odd entries tonight, but the roster is so stocked, I doubt there is much room for too many surprises.Darn it!! I want Tugboat to come down the ramp!!

TNA is on life support and the doctor just told the family it's time to pull the plug.

I know that, in his post it came across to me like he thought Sting wasn't ring ready. My response was inferring that he was in ring shape as he was wrestling for TNA.

Yeah I'm well aware he's been in TNA for nearly a decade. Why I denoted he's in good physical shape for someone his age in my prior post. If TNA/Spike TV weren't throwing silly $$ at him year after year to work a handful of matches, I think he'd had retired from in ring competition a year or two or three ago.

I simply don't see Taker/Sting :shrug: even if by chance Sting returns for a match. (Which I don't take as a given with WWE at 55) I think he'll just as much get signed to go into their HOF and do a DVD on him.
