Kermit confirmed on the Reddit post.

It seems during the Rumble we may see a current TNA champion show up to compete. One would assume they mean Naomi but she is no longer the Knockouts champ and Kermit would certainly know (for those unaware, he works for WWE and has leaked many, many last minute things on Reddit before.

So:

Moose
Grace
Sabin
Crazzy Steve
ABC
Decay

Who do you think it would be?

Edit: Spoiler in comments!

Man, now that Vince is out for good it would be sick as fuck if wwe started allowing more exchanges like with anderson and nakamura with njpw and noah...

Edit I still have trouble using the spoilers tag properly... I hate this system and want BB style back...

It's a choice I support and WWE should make that a yearly thing now.

Copy/paste it from the sidebar, change nothing about it outside of 'visible text here' and 'Hidden text here'. If you remove the word spoiler, if you remove or add an extra space, or not have it across 3 lines then it won't work. If you edit a post or comment containing a spoiler it also seems to break it and isn't fixable aside from deleting the thread/comment and re-doing it lol. It can be...fucky.

But yeah I agree. The Rumble is their one big thing where no matter who it is who comes in, they could win or lose believably with no issues so the whole 'our champ needs to win' thing is eliminated right off the bat. Makes for some good possibilities.

If WWE and AEW were on friendlier terms, and if he were healthy enough, an MJF appearance in the Rumble would be amazing right now, considering the whole "bidding war of 2024" story.

Really? That’s awesome news. Very happy for her and very happy to see WWE and TNA working together.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh hell yeah. Can’t wait to see video of it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yep. They're a great choice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

100%. I only figured 2 of the choices woulda made sense and this works! Will be a good rumble.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yep! I don't watch WWE but I might go with Rumble tonight over Collision just to see spoiler in action.

Not sure the timing of everything (the joys of being a next-morning-watcher is start times are irrelevant! rofl) but:
the women's rumble opens the show if the timing helps at all lol.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Good to know! I think that settles it lol.
