    Laughed my a--- off reading this thread.

    Excited that Rousey is officially here.

    The raw women's elimination chamber match just got a lot more interesting.

    So Justin Barrasso is saying the WM plan is
    Triple H & Stephanie vs Rousey & The Rock

    Yeah seems weird after tonight that she wouldn’t have a singles match...thought they did the tease with Stephanie...idk what to believe...guess we’ll see how it plays out tmrw.

    Barrasso is pretty plugged into WWE though it seems like if that was the plan they wouldn’t let it out this early

    Alvarez is also reporting Ronda and a male partner (not specifically The Rock) vs HHH and Steph.

    It makes sense. High profile story with mainstream names leading in to her first match, and its a tag match so it helps hide the fact that she’ll probably be fairly green still

    Well she is apparently signed to a full time contract so she should be having singles matches before then. I'm interested to see how they book her, if it's like a female Brock or what.

    They’d be smart to save her first match, singles or otherwise for Mania.. can’t see her debuting on raw or at the elimination chamber.

    I guess Ronda/Rock vs. HHH/Steph would be okay.

    On a side note Rey really looks improved. Clearly his knee isn't an issue anymore. He apparently used stem cells and surgeries to fix it and hes no longer on roids or anything hes naturally getting built

    Already thinking of going to the rumble next year, it’s on the west coast so it’d be a short plane ride away and I’ve never been to a rumble PPV, seems like one of the more fun ones to be at live.

    that's true but I was really excited for her to have a singles match. I'd definitely prefer her partner to be Angle over Rock though.

    I was thinking Angle too but I just wish her first match at WM would be a singles.

    Why not use her to help get exposure for one of their own like Charlotte or Alexa when all those new eyeballs will be there to see Rousey.

    It’s another example of Stephanie & Hunter inserting themselves into s--- instead of using that spot to build up their current stars.

    They have plenty of time to do a mixed tag match but they’ll never have more attention for having her in WWE than at the beginning for her first match.

    If this rumble proved anything, is that special matches and part timers dont work..everyone in their mothers loved the male rumble cuz its finally was a normal full timers rumble with a wrestler who put in time and effort winning it

    So

    For the love of god dont give me a mania match with part timers. We need a classic mania again we already have to struggle through taker match

    Mania’s always gonna have part timers, just the way it is. Even Brock is sort of a part timer, HHH of course will wrestle too, maybe Rock.

    Hopefully Taker is done or wrestles Cena then is done, I don’t need to see him anymore tbh.. over all that.

    Charlotte/Ronda would be my ideal match, but I bet they go with the tag match if they can get Rock. If they can’t get Rock then maybe they still do with Kurt or someone else.

    Anyone know what Rock’s schedule is like in April and leading up to it?
