The third to last match on the card, also the last match offered by SD. By technicality, this would count as SD's main event for the show. Something tells me last year was a test run for the concept and that this year their going to expand the concept for RAW as well.

That's what I personally would have loved to see. Not only does it keep Asuka strong, it legitimizes Carmella as a top heel for ending a streak in such a sketchy fashion.

Special Announcement From Mr. Jones On behalf of my client Smasher, I regret to inform you that this diary has unfortunately entered a state of limbo due to his Notebook deciding now would be a good time to play dead. However, there is good news: Smash still has the backups and write-ups for his shows so things should be clear themselves up after a couple of days or so. Until then, I suggest everyone reading be patience and try to understand the hardships people go through to write a diary. Thank you.

Shoot, with all this work put into it: I completely forgot to put it in the Active Diary Thread. http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=540869

Me. Then again, one of the reasons is because I've wanted the absolute final coronation of Roman Reigns to happen since WrestleMania 31. So has WWE. And after three years, you think they're going to let the opportunity slip by them again? No. And I don't think it should. EDIT: On another note, 'Woken' Matt Hardy has now officially won my support. I will be watching with interest to see what the woken master does next.

<p>They picked the right guy in one of the best Royal Rumble matches in recent memory.</p><p> </p><p> Let's see how the women do.</p>

Hot take: It would be pretty foolish of WWE not to have Rhonda Rousey make her debut and win the women's rumble. It's basically a golden opportunity. And yes, Asuka will likely find her way in the match even if that happens: Don't worry. Also, Shinsuke is going to WrestleMania: I have serious doubts about WWE putting over Reigns again in the same place where they boo'ed him and The Rock three years ago.

For a year now, ever since returning from five years in WCW, Hulk Hogan has been a heel. Forming the nWo, running undefeated for months with the Heavyweight title in his possession, reforming the Megapowers with a heel Randy Savage after the nWo was forced to disband. He's been at the top of his game. But, his time as a heel should be over soon. And I have the perfect storyline to turn him face. I'm going to bring in a young rookie, have him try to befriend Hogan after worshiping him growing up, only for Hogan to turn him away time and time again. Eventually, the young rookie will be attacked by a heel stable, and Hogan will come to his side and save him.<p> </p><p> The only question is, who will this rookie be? That's where I need help from you guys. I currently have three people in mind.</p><p> </p><p> The first, is a generated character named Sam Hannigan. He's a lightweight, spot monkey. Decent top row skills, great basics and psychology, 87 SQ, decent entertainment skills. Graduated from my dojo in 1986, but is only 26 years old. I had him in my development company for the first two years of his career, never used him on my main roster, and he's spent the last two years in the WCW before being released. Problem with him is, after this storyline with Hogan, I have no idea where I would go with him.</p><p> </p><p> The second choice would be Adam Copeland. He's only been in my development company for a few months, so he still has lots of room to grow down there. The future Edge already has good skills and could use the boost being a young teammate of Hogan's before something crazy happens and he turns into the crazy Edge. Just not sure how early I would be bringing him up from dev would cut into his progress.</p><p> </p><p> The third choice is Tatanka. Been in my development company for four (4!) years and still hasn't once asked to be brought up. Decent skills all around. My most likely choice right now, as I could see the rub from Hogan pushing him into midcard status and keeping him there for years.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I would go with Adam Copeland: He's already got the skills and SQ to do well and he can only get better as time goes on.</p>
