According to Flair they want Shawn back so bad lol!

 

[Dark Ninja]

Is Neville there to make the racism not seem obvious. I mean at least they are gonna win that jobber Tyler Breeze is on the opposing team.

 

[WMBT27]

I can't believe this is a go home show. This is the show they want people to see to buy their pay per view Sunday.

But it's FREE FOR NEW SUBSCRIBERS!!!

So all they need is:
1. Everyone who has the network to keep paying for it. Doesn't matter if they watch the Rumble or not
2. Hope that the appeal of the Rumble convinces a bunch of people to sign up
3. Watch 75% of those people forget to cancel when their month is up or decide "eh it's only $30 bucks to stick around through Wrestlemania".

It's genius really. The Rumble is one of their most popular shows and one of the few times the Match itself is a draw. It's close enough to Mania that people won't bother cancelling.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

It's free on the Network so they don't give a shit. Plus, it's the Rumble. Everyone watches that anyway.

I mean, technically, every PPV is free for somebody somewhere since the first month is free. They get my 9.99 a month, though. Because I'm a sucker and it's easier to just let it go every month. I'm still paying for these, Vince!

 

[shanafan]

Did Cole just say that a number 1 never won the Royal Rumble?

HBK in 95, and

Spoiler

Benoit

in 04.

 

[Sephzilla]

How much do you want to bet that Neville gets the pin on MLK day while tagging with three black teammates.

Even if Shawn said yes to 1 more match, it would take him at least 6 months to get back into shirtless shape.

One time for Mania, or back regularly? Regardless, he's not coming back

They don't try with any show.

Lazy.

 

[CDiggity]

I wanna see Big E attempt a Red Arrow

 

[Anth0ny]

if I smoked a cigarette every time a commentator says "he loves to have fun" I'd be dead within 3 hours

Back for the Rumble. Hilarious. Shawn isn't moving.

 

[Dark Ninja]

That silence you can hear the air conditioner.

 

[Nose Master]

What's wrong with Vivi?! (((

 

[number47]

Dead crowd. What city is this so I'll never visit?

 

[Sephzilla]

I think they're more likely to get Austin for the rumble than HBK at this point. Shawn seems totally done and happy he is done.

 

[serenewarfare]

Dead crowd. What city is this so I'll never visit?

Columbus, OH

 

[Raw64life]

Cross "_______ loves to have fun" off on the bingo sheet.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

Botch!!

 

[Bluekaveli]

Remember when we actually knew what city they were in?

 

[Officerrob]

BOTCH!!!

botchamania has been pretty good tonight

He's got his eyes fixed on living out his days hunting and enjoying himself.

Well one of his eyes at least

 

[Skatterd]

Definition of a trainwreck.

 

[thefro]

Breeze might as well join the Social Outcasts at this point.

 

[Ithil]

"Fun to watch!"

is the first month always free? I thought they only had that offer at certain times.

You can't talk about my goat like that

Why don't they just make a Breeze/Fandango tag team?

 

[notworksafe]

Ouch, poor Tyler

 

[Rodeo Clown]

I think they have zero idea what to do with Neville but feel obligated to put him on TV since people like him and he shockingly won that Slammy. Which is a shame, since I think he's better than this.

 

[spindashing]

and of course the white guy got the pin

yeah, for the dream

 

[Arrowgigantic]

You had one job, Mark.

 

[shanafan]

I used to drive through Ohio to reach Indianapolis for business trips. For a two hour drive through Ohio, it's just farm land, lol.

Spoiler

Course it could just be my route

During the latest Wooooo! Nation podcast with guest Chris Jericho, Ric Flair mentioned that Vince McMahon made a big money offer to Shawn Michaels to come out of retirement to work the 30-man Royal Rumble match.

Flair said, "They want him so bad for Royal Rumble, but he ain't budging from that ranch down there in Texas."

I wonder what "big money" is to Flair.

$10K?

 

[somedevil]

I wonder if they will talk about his TNA run and how messed up he was during it.

 

[serenewarfare]

Are they seriously advertising an interview with fucking Road Dogg? Is anyone buying the Network to see that?

 

[Bluekaveli]

BG James, a legend? Sure.

 

[spindashing]

To be quite honest I am interested.

 

[WMBT27]

I love Shawn and had a Lazy eye growing up.

Just couldn't pass the joke up.

 

[number47]

Legends with jbl will feature all your favorite 90s wrestlers answer the hard hitting question. "when did you know you were a alcholoic?"

 

[DMczaf]

it looks like its gonna be a good watch why bash it?

He's the new Evan Bourne. He was always destined to be that once Vince got a hold of him.
