Huh? Your a Edgehead Outlaw88? I never really liked Edge except for when he was with Christian. I was actually routing for Triple H to win the Rumble after Lashley fell out. After Triple H got taken out, I just knew Mysterio was going to win.

Randy Orton got screwed. What happened was that Vince did spit on his face and told him that he would not be the champion. RO is the future of the company, the legend killer, he deserves a WM22 main event spot. Rey can win the championship one day, but he should not win the RR, there is no freaking build up for him for WM22. Fuck you, WWE! And Cena is the damn champion again? I bet that he found Vince's cum so tasty last night. Be prepared to see the wigger getting his ass booed to the damn roof tomorrow. Vince is homo, I hate WWE ruining real talents like RO and having assholes like Cena as the champ all the time. I am not going to watch WWE until Cena goes down to middle card and RO becomes the champion. Good bye, WWE! For now!

Once again, fuck you, WWE! Cena, prepare to get ur little ass boobed to the moon when you face H at WM22.

So after doing something really smart in flipping the belt to Edge, then Vince decides to be idiotic and stubborn, and flips it back to Cena, even though it's been proven Cena is NOT his next golden goose (at least not yet). I'm glad Rey is going to be given this oppurtunity, regardless of his size, he's over like a bastard, and that's something that SD! needs right now. I'm also glad RVD got to look so good in his return bout, and hopefully this ultimately leads to a push for him to bigger and better things (lord knows he's waited long enough).

Not so much an Edgehead as I am a Cena hater. I just don't understand what wwe must be thinking when doing something like this. They hardly gave him a chance to show off just what sort of champ he could be. makes no damn sense....

You know a few months ago someone posted to one of my posts saying "Ryo, if you hate the WWE so much why do you keep wathcing and commenting on it" well just like most of you I have been watching it for a long time in the hopes it get's better but after last night. come on man. Ok so now they are bringing back the part timer, taker in teh hopes to draw more fans back to SD. which of course is pointless since SD is unwactable.

Now we move to Cena, of course vince must be deaf and retarded cause he failed to hear the boos that cena has been getting and he gives him back the title. you know this is a sign that wigger power is looking top regin for awhile.

As for the winner of the rumble. you know what fuck you. seriously fuck you. you know, yeah it was sad when eddie died but to give the rumble away to his friend is BS. it happened months ago, let it die (no pun intended) yes it was sad but come on, that little shit winning the rumble? and here is my guess. I think that tonight, Rey will jump ship and go to raw which could be a good thing cause if they are on this move of giving praise to eddie then Rey will beat cena for the title at WM which means a spic will be holding the title then a wigger (I am a spic also so no one get bent out of shape and say I am getting a bit racist) which then means that if he jumps ship SD has no main event which means that Henry will face angle at the next PPV and whne angel wins he will face the dead man to go to WM to I hope lose, but since it has been many a year, he will win the belt

well that is ryo's two cents. off to work guys. be back in the afternoon. later and have a good one

So Cena's wigger powers work even when he's the challenger. Rey deserved to win the Rumble but if Eddie hadn't died would Rey have won it? Probably not, which personally i don't like.The best thing about the PPV was of course the entance by the Undertaker Damn that was good.

Royal Rumble Recap -- Viva La Raza!

Brought to you by: WWE.com

Rey Mysterio wins the Royal Rumble Match

Only twice in history has the man who drew No. 1 gone on to win the Royal Rumble; never, however, had the man who started with him at No. 2 gone on to be victorious. In the 19th edition of the Rumble, that benchmark fell by the wayside, as No. 2 entrant Rey Mysterio went the distance to claim the main event of WrestleMania 22.

As the match began, Mysterio and No. 1 entrant Triple H were paired off. The two battled back and forth until Simon Dean entered at No. 3. He immediately went after Rey, seemingly looking to Triple H for acceptance. Instead, The Game attacked Simon, and with a recovered Rey’s help, the unlikely allies tossed the fitness guru out of the match. No. 4 entrant Psicosis suffered the same fate, until Ric Flair entered the match at No. 5.

Flair came in with fists flying, but the wily veteran made a rookie mistake by charging Triple H as he stood near the ropes. The Cerebral Assassin simply sidestepped the charge, and sent Flair crashing to the floor. As Rey lay beaten in the corner, the barrage continued as Big Show drew No. 6. Show hammered everything in sight, even eliminating No. 7 entrant Coach with a swat of his hand. When partner and fellow World Tag Team Champion Kane entered the match at No. 9, it seemed like the monstrous duo would conquer everyone.

After teaming up to eliminate Lashley, Show & Kane surprised everyone by going after each other, leaving the beaten down Game and Mysterio to instead test themselves. However, as they leaned on the ropes attempting to chokeslam one another, Triple H came from behind and shoved both men out to the shock of the crowd.

The match continued, with both Triple H and Mysterio continuing to defy the odds at every turn. Several men attempted to eliminate the No. 1 and 2 entrants, but were unable to get them out of the match. When Randy Orton came out as the final entrant, 14 men were left in the ring with a chance to go to the main event of WrestleMania, including the two men who began the match nearly one hour earlier.

As the Rumble raged on, Shawn Michaels went on a run, causing the eliminations of MNM and Shelton Benjamin in succession to make it into the final six. At that point, Mr. McMahon’s music hit, and the WWE Chairman made his entrance. As HBK stared down the boss, Shane McMahon made a surprising appearance, attacking Michaels from behind and eliminating him from the match. An irate HBK flipped out, running back into the ring and nailing Triple H with Sweet Chin Music before chasing the McMahons to the locker room. After the returning Rob Van Dam eliminated Carlito, the final four of Van Dam, Orton, Mysterio and Triple H was set.

RVD & Rey reprised their team, taking it to the former Evolution partners. However, as RVD went up to attempt the Frog Splash on Orton, Triple H shoved him down onto the top rope. Mysterio charged, but the Game launched him into RVD, sending Mr. Monday Night crashing to the floor.

The Legend Killer and The Game then decided to team up on Mysterio, stacking the odds against him even further. Rey was able to thwart their efforts and hit a double 619, followed by the West Coast Pop on Orton. Orton and Triple H managed to retake the advantage, but as The Game tried to nail Rey with a spinebuster, he spun around and used a body scissors to send Triple H hurtling over the top. The Game could not believe it, and pulled Rey out of the ring. He sent Mysterio crashing into the steel steps in a fit of rage, then tossed him back into the ring, seemingly easy prey for a very fresh Legend Killer.

Orton picked up the beaten Mysterio, and casually looked to slam him over the top. However, it was an overzealous burst of confidence on the part of the Legend Killer; as he attempted to toss Mysterio, Rey shifted his weight, grabbing Orton in a head scissors. Mysterio pulled, and as he hung on to the ropes, sent Orton over the top and to the floor to win the Royal Rumble Match. Dedicating the win to his longtime best friend Eddie Guerrero, Rey will now look to follow in Latino Heat’s footsteps and become WWE Champion or World Heavyweight Champion in the main event of WrestleMania 22.

John Cena def. Edge to win the WWE Championship

Coming into the Royal Rumble, Edge proclaimed that he would not be a transitional champion. Unfortunately for the Rated R Superstar, his 15 minutes of fame lasted exactly three weeks, and John Cena was the one who walked out of the Royal Rumble as WWE Champion.

Early in the bout, Cena had the champion off guard, and he was forced to retreat to the floor on multiple occasions. Cena finally had enough and followed him, but Edge used Lita as a decoy, allowing the champion to get in a cheap shot and take the advantage. Edge speared Cena into the steel ring stairs, and following a baseball slide that sent Cena into the crowd, the former champion barely beat the count into the ring.

From there, Edge remained in control, and at one point set Cena on the top rope. Edge followed him up, but was subsequently pushed down. Cena then went for a splash, but Edge moved away and regained control. Cena would later come back and try the F-U, but an eye gouge turned the tide towards the champion once more.

As the match headed to conclusion, Cena made his comeback, and hit the champion with everything in his repertoire. As Cena went for the Five Knuckle Shuffle, Lita jumped up on the apron to draw his attention. Edge recovered as Lita and Cena argued, but when the champion charged, Cena sidestepped and Edge ran into Lita. Cena then hoisted the stunned champion up, hitting the F-U. Not content with that, Cena applied the STFU to the champion. Stuck in the center of the ring, the Rated R Superstar was forced to tap out, and Cena claimed the WWE Championship for the second time.

Kurt Angle def. Mark Henry to retain the World Heavyweight Championship

Before the Royal Rumble, Mark Henry said that neither strength nor speed nor technical ability could beat him. However, at the end of the Royal Rumble, it was a little bit of chicanery that helped Kurt Angle defeat Henry to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.

Early in the match, the two men seemed at a stalemate as Angle tried to figure out a way to take down his larger opponent. Instead, he found himself getting caught by the World’s Strongest Man and dumped to the floor, where Daivari was more than happy to take a few shots at his former client.

After that assault, Henry controlled Angle using his power, but the champion managed to apply the Ankle Lock. Much like on SmackDown, Henry used his power to escape. After Henry kicked out of a pinfall following an Angle Slam, the champion locked in the Ankle Lock once more. Daivari jumped up on the apron, drawing the referee’s attention, and when Henry broke the hold a second time, he sent Angle crashing into the referee.

At this point, Kurt switched strategies, and went outside the ring for a chair. Daivari attempted to stop him, but caught a chair shot for his troubles. However, when Kurt attempted to use the weapon, Henry blocked his attempt, and tossed Angle to the mat. As Henry advanced though, the crafty champion gave him a low blow, followed by two chair shots, the last of which felled the World’s Strongest Man.

After Henry kicked out of the subsequent pinfall attempt, Angle went over and untied one of the turnbuckle pads on the middle rope. Angle ended up in that corner, but as Henry charged, the champion sidestepped and tripped him, sending the World’s Strongest Man face first into the exposed steel. Angle then rolled up his opponent, and with his hands on the ropes for leverage, got the three count to retain the gold.

Angle’s celebration was cut short, however. As he stood in the ring, the familiar gong of the Undertaker was heard, and the Deadman rode to the entranceway on a horse-drawn cart. As the Deadman stared down the champion, he gestured to the heavens and sent lightning bolts crashing down into the ring. As Angle stood amazed, the ropes fell down and the ring collapsed. In the end, the World Heavyweight Champion stood in the ruins with a look of bewilderment on his face as the Deadman turned and walked away.

The Boogeyman def. JBL

Coming into the Royal Rumble, the Boogeyman clearly held a psychological advantage of JBL. And when the smoke cleared, he held something infinitely more impressive: a victory.

Before the match started, Boogeyman stalked his opponent, and JBL once again threw Jillian to the proverbial wolf. Boogeyman proceeded to scare her onto the mat, and after pulling out a handful of worms, dripped the creepy crawlers out of his own mouth and into Jillian’s. At that point, JBL attacked, hoping to catch his opponent off guard.

JBL used everything in his repertoire to wear down the Boogeyman, but the bizarre newcomer took everything the self-proclaimed “Wrestling God” could dish out. Finally, JBL had him measured and went for the Clothesline from Hell; instead, JBL whiffed on the move, and was sent crashing shoulder-first into the post. The Boogeyman quickly pounced, nailing JBL with a pump-handle powerslam. With a handful of worms in his mouth, Boogeyman made the cover and scored the surprising pinfall.

Mickie James def. Ashley

Heading into the Royal Rumble, some questioned whether Trish Stratus would be able to fairly officiate the match between Ashley and Mickie James. Prior to the match, Mickie told Trish that she loved her, catching Trish off guard and furthering the dilemma. In the end, Trish was impartial, and Mickie James was the one who walked out victorious.

Early in the bout, Ashley worked over Mickie’s arm, frustrating her to no end. As Ashley was pounding Mickie in the corner, Trish got physically involved, pulling her protégé off of James. While it was the correct thing to do according to the rulebook, it gave Mickie a chance to cheap shot Ashley and take control.

Mickie spent the majority of the match focusing on Ashley’s back and neck, at one point applying a brutal sitting variation of a bow and arrow. Ashley made a comeback, however, and pounded Mickie in the corner again. This time, Ashley shook off Trish’s attempt to separate them, nailing Mickie with a spear into the corner.

At this point, Ashley stood Mickie up in the corner, and climbed the ropes to pound her some more. Instead, Mickie grabbed Ashley, driving her hard into the mat with a vicious powerbomb. Trish seemed appalled, but was forced to count as Mickie made the cover. The powerbomb was enough for the three count, giving Mickie the victory. When the match was over, Mickie attempted to celebrate with her idol, but Trish pushed her away.

Gregory Helms Wins Open Invitational To Become Cruiserweight Champion

At the Royal Rumble, Kid Kash was slated to face five former Cruiserweight Champions in an Open Invitational Match. While he may have had a battle plan for Funaki, Nunzio, Jamie Noble and Paul London, the announcement of RAW’s Gregory Helms as the final participant caught everyone off guard; while the five SmackDown Superstars attempted to take him out of the match early, the element of surprise prevailed in the end, as Helms walked out as the new Cruiserweight Champion.

Held under Texas Tornado rules with the first man to score a fall becoming the champion, the Invitational saw fast and furious action from the beginning. As every Superstar attempted a pinfall or applied a submission maneuver, another Superstar would invariably break up the action. As the match neared conclusion, Paul London seemed to have the advantage, and hit a breath-taking Shooting Star Press onto his opponents standing on the floor.

As he climbed to the top once more to attempt to finish the match, Gregory Helms caught him, driving London to the mat with a vicious top-rope neckbreaker. While Helms was too stunned to capitalize, Kid Kash seized the opportunity and nailed London with the Dead Level. It looked as if he’d retain, but Nunzio and Funaki broke up the count.

A short time later, Jamie Noble had Funaki trapped in the Dragon Sleeper, but a recovered Helms attempted to break up the maneuver. Noble avoided his Shining Wizard attempt, but when he went to grab Helms, the former Hurricane sent Noble crashing to the floor. With that hurdle cleared, Helms turned his attention back to the groggy Funaki. His Shining Wizard connected on Funaki, and Helms made the pinfall to claim the Cruiserweight Championship once again.

Was it just me or was the booking of the Rumble odd. I understand Taker at the end of the show but to have the Royal Rumble match itself so early it just seemed weird. Angle-Henry was not a good way to end the ppv.

What catches my eye in that re-cap was the entries of Eugene, Goldust and Tatanka. Are they back with the WWE or just surprise one -time apperance kind of thing? Weird...

I guess Eugene is back.I heard he had gotten out of Rehab and was better now as for tatanka and Goldust I'm not sure I don't like the idea of bringing back wrestlers from the past. So how long before Cena starts getting booed again I'm thinking as soon as RAW tonight.

Hi, everyone! It never really occured to me to post here, so I thought I'd post a bit.

I have no problem with Cena, but his gimmick is way too old. It was getting old since he gained the WWE title for the first time. Why? The first spinner belt was funny and interesting, the second sucked. Everyone was indifferent at that point. It only took a matter of time for the fans to make this apparent, which they did at the Meadowlands on RAW. You would think Cena coming out to an audience of boos would send a message to the WWE, but apparently not. Either way, leave it to New Jersey to tell the WWE what it really is.

proud to be a Jerseyan... :-)

Can't they just give him a new gimmick like everyone wants? I mean, I'm sorry, but a ramp going down to the ring does NOT make you a magical face again. Give him a heel turn or something. He'd be infinitely more interesting as, well, anything besides what he his now.

Sorry, had to get that off my chest. I know it has probably been iterated many times here, but that just annoyed me last night. The Royal Rumble was going soooo well until the end of the Rumble and the two title matches. They really killed the momentum of what could be a good PPV for a change. Hell, even Angle himself couldn't sell that Mark Henry might have a chance to win. Oh well.

Anyway, hi, everyone!

A lot of people think that Rey only won because of Eddie's passing. While it may have influenced the backstage decision to have Rey win, there is room for doubt, considering Rey's status in the WWE. But if someone like Chavo won, then the reason for him winning would have been too obvious.

I'm confused as to why the RR itself was not the main event. If it would have been, it would have been way less predictable that Rey would win. Now with both champions face, and many rumors flying around, it's not clear what's going to happen next. If the rumors of HHH facing Cena are true, then Rey would challenge the WHC, but it looks as though stuff is gonna happen with Angle and Taker before WM22. Question is, which of them will Rey face at WM22?

I wondered why Edge didn't bin that abomination of a title. It should have been obvious that Cena was gonna get the title back. That bitch.

My money was on HHH, but he got out before RO which was weird.

Out of those three, HHH should have won. Yeah, he's the heel, but at least the matches are really good when he's around. The whole Rey Mysterio thing is just an insult to Eddie Guerrero, IMO.

Anyway, yeah Cena sucks, and although I'm not much of an Edge fan, he at least deserved a little more time in the limelight. Vince has been pushing Cena so hard that the fans don't even know what they want.

It is starting to get annoying about how hard he's pushing Cena. GET THE HINT! I know that him being face would be really good for the WWE, and I see their point. Cena is a rapper (so to speak) in real life, so his gimmick appears real and it helps dumb down that whole "this shit is made up" image of the WWE. Also, no doubt Cena's rap albums are a factor in this, as I'm sure they want him to be on top so those sell. Naturally, they're not going to make him heel-turn for that reason.

However, you can't make a face of of someone that's just not getting reactions anymore! Cena used to be one of my favorite wrestlers. I remember how exciting it was when he took the US title and started his whole "The champ is here" thing. Now, it's just boring and old. I couldn't even mark-out and be excited for Cena even if I wanted to.

Vince really needs some competition, dammit.

Which i'm guessing is the very reaosn why they aren't changing his gimmick either. It looks like we're gonna be stuck with him on the top, and him with this gimmick for a long time.
The only way i'd be entertained is if they get a good rapper on to totally umiliate him. That would quite possibly make my day. Finding a good rapper though, that could be a problem.

The main problem I have with Cena regaining the title is that he's actually regressed as a wrestler.Look at his match against Edge that has to be the weakest STF I've ever seen and when exactly did Cena turn into a submission machine?

It seems a lot of you guys don't like the fact that Rey won the rumble and a title shot at Mania. Some saying that it was due to Eddie's death that got Rey the nod to win it. While that may or may not have been a factor in all of this I think it boils down to two things:

Rey= F*king Over! Say what you want about him but he is perhaps amung the most over face on the SD side, and maybe even the Raw side too. With guys like Cena who has lost his fan-fare, and kurt who has just turned face and is not quite as over as it (and come on, he's far better as a heel anyway. Possible turn for mania?) Rey is as good a candidate as any in the face department. The crowds pop like mad for nearly every move Rey does.

If there is one thing wwe loves it's a good underdog vs uber wrestler type of match. If they decided to give Rey the title, that would be a huge thing, as they would almost certinly make it so he looks like he is outmatched every step of the way. And don't you think a mania match between Kurt and Rey would be awesome? they have gone at it on SD before, and could go all out at mania. That is if he chooses to stay on SD. Though there are less giant people there. On Raw he would have to deal with Kane, Big Show, and Visera to name a few.

I can see why they would, being limited in the face department, but Rey got boring or me a while ago. He started off with loads of interesting moves and style, and he never really did much different form then for me.
Also, the David vs Goliath matches just down cut it for me. If i wanted to see someone charge repeatedly at a wrestler with clothlines, to get get choked on the fourth go and thrown around, I'd read the bible. Those matches just arent satisfying, especially when you have two in a row involving Henry :(

His wrestling is slipshod at best. Even when he was in his US championship running, his wrestling wasn't great, but he at least sold it well. It was fun watching someone kick the shit out of Cena for 10 minutes and then have him pull a victory out of his ass. After about 200 matches, though, it gets just a bit old.

Here's another thing. Does anyone else get the feeling that they had him start doing the STF solely so he could have a move called the "STFU?"

At 1/30/06 12:45 PM, Outlaw88 wrote: It seems a lot of you guys don't like the fact that Rey won the rumble and a title shot at Mania.

I have no problem with him winning the shot at all. I'm not a big fan of Mysterio, but he doesn't bother me, either. I just hope they don't milk Eddie's death for all they can.

With guys like Cena who has lost his fan-fare, and kurt who has just turned face and is not quite as over as it (and come on, he's far better as a heel anyway.

I dunno. He really championed that "You Suck" chant very well. I still laugh every time he points at people while they chant it. But it really doesn't matter if he's heel or face...he still kicks ass no matter what.

And don't you think a mania match between Kurt and Rey would be awesome? they have gone at it on SD before, and could go all out at mania. That is if he chooses to stay on SD.

I dunno...I'd prefer to see Kurt and Taker go at it. Taker is probably retiring soon, and since Mark Calaway really thinks highly of Angle, he might want that to be his last match. Somehow, I imagine him winning the belt from Angle and WM22 then laying the title down to him and doing something that signifies his retirement. That'd be a helluva way for Taker to go out on top.

As far as Mysterio, I wouldn't mind him going after the WWE title. Perhaps he can kick the shit out of Cena and have him do a heel-turn. Though, Mysterio vs. Angle is always fun.

I don't have a problem with winning the Rumble. IMO he should have had a title shot long ago but its i can't help but think that if Eddie hadn't died Rey wouldn't be getting this push. One thing's for sure an Angle-Misterio match would be great I remember they wrestled at Summerslam a couple of years ago and it was by far the best match on the card.

I'd much prefer the Undertaker retiring sooner and making a proper impactful retiremnet, rather than him holding out for as long as he can and his not being able to go out with a bang due to any injuries.
He still has his unbeaten streak at WM, so I see him laying down his legacy to someone at WM, like Randy, showing him respect, and putting a younger superstar in the spotlight. Or they might choose to let his keep the unbeaten streak to retiremnet, as a thankyou for the years of service.

The fact that Mark Henry even received a title shot shows that things are really headed in the wrong direction. I miss the days of classic championship matches when the belt actually meant something. I never thought I would watch wrestling again back when David Arquette won the WCW World Title. And now, years later, I am considering not watching it once again because of the overall lack of true talent. Seeing Mysterio as World Champ will be a damn shame. The fact that he cannot lift anyone off the ground normally means that the shorter his matches are, the better. However, World Title matches are normally at least twenty-five minutes which is enough to create a real snooze fest with Rey at the helm.

I don't think Rey will even be in the Main Event at wrestlemania. I'm not convinced that the WWE wants Rey to be champ wouldn't be surprised if someone (Orton) beats him for the number one contender's spot.

I hope you are right. I honestly think that someone like Orton has the kind of talent to thrive. Basically, Rey just doesn't have the ability to cut a decent promo. Look at KBL for example. He isn't the greatest wrestler but he can talk and entertain. That's what made him a formidable champ. I really hope that this whole Rey push is for him to tribute Eddie and then move on.
