So going into the Rumble (so far anyways), CM Punk and Daniel Bryan are Champs (are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!?!?!). Randy Orton ended the Barrett barrage, Sheamus beat Swagger, Ziggler dropped his title to Ryder, Rhodes defended against Booker. Show beat Henry (sorry, weak) but then DB cashed in and Punk beat Del Rio and Miz. So I'm thinking

WWE TITLE
Punk vs Ziggler

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE
Daniel Bryan vs Big Show vs Mark Henry

along with 1-2 other matches and the Royal Rumble itself.

Maybe Kane vs John Cena? Diva's match? Tag title match? Double duty for Rhodes or Ryder?

[Altyrell]

Since supposedly there is only going to be 30 Participants, I hope that this brings back either the "Position Balls" &/or Qualifying Matches.

Also I wonder what wrestler will be a surprise wrestler.

[konan]

Unfortuantly they have said that it looks like Ziggler isn't finished with Ryder yet. It looks like there will be a match at the Royal Rumble between the two.
The WWE had him drop the belt to please the kiddies. I hope the match at Rumble will be the last and in the rumble itself i hope they start to give him his main event push.

[Tim Tebow]

I hope and pray that Wade Barrett wins the Royal Rumble and will save the business once and for all.

[Smartmark]

Will start with Del Rio and Santino, and will end with Taker coming in as number 30 and probably throw Trips out

I have watched every Rumble but I don't recall "position balls". I would remember years of crude jokes.

so you are thinking for another trips taker match? i dont to see it again every 1 knows taker beat him like he did with show stopper

[Altyrell]

Ok, maybe they weren't balls, but I could have sworn that they used Slips of Paper that had their Entry Number at one point.

The balls had the paper with the entry number inside of them.

[SCpiinndaelr]

Yeah, I miss the balls and everyone fighting for positions. (No jokes konan) They should bring that back, it was very entertaining. While they're at it bring back KotR and make it mean something.
