So TLC is in the books and the Rumble is the next PPV, we could even say that the Road To Wrestlemania has begun. Who are your picks for Rumble winner this coming RR???

Just to start off, My fantasy win would be Daniel Bryan doing a Benoit like run. Or Wade Barrett.
on the other side, two likely ones i see are Cena so he can challenge for the title at WM (Rock or Punk, whoever it is) or the non stopping momentum machine Ryback.

at least, i'm kinda expecting for Ryback to either break or tie Kane's elimination record.

Hm, that's a good question. I think at this point it's hard to pick out one person that has had such an impressive run of late that he's worth a pick for the Rumble, and if there was one person it'd be Ryback. I can see him winning it and then challenging either Punk or The Rock for the title at Mania.

As always, I'm hoping in my heart that it'll be someone we don't really expect.

Wade Barrett is going squash them all!

I hope its not Cena or Orton, cause I'll just about die.

I can See Ryback winning it but I wouldn't be happy with it.

Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow have chances I think as well

Yeah, I realized this a few days ago. Either Cena wins the rumble, then Dolph cashes in on Show, leading to Cena vs. Dolph, or CEna wins the rumble and Dolph cashses in on Cena right after Cena wins the title.

This is still quite optimistic, I see it as Rock wins the title, Cena wins the rumble, "Once in a lifetime, part II" for WM

No...Cena is def not a lock at all...There's way too many surrounding elements and rumors around that it could be any number of ppl...Cena doesn't have to win for Rock Cena II to happen. At all.

I'm still hoping whoever loses the WWE title match to enter the rumble and win it. I would be perfectly ok with either Rock or Punk winning the rumble and thus main eventing WM, and just have Cena win a no1 contenders match at EC. Triple threat at WM.

It's hard not to pick Cena in any match he's in.

Understandable,But I've seen way too many ppl act like there's no chance of anyone else winning ,And that's not counting only here.

I'm not sure that is true this year. No one has pushed in any way in the build-up and Cena is the guy with the most logical storyline for either a Rock win or for anything involving the WHC because of the scenarios I described with Ziggler. Also, I think that having Cena say 2013 will be his yea,r and then not having him do something big early on would kill the angle (unless they are going a depression-frustration route with Cena, but I think we can all agree that that is extremely unlikely).

Based on the supposedly "locked in" matches for Mania it is possible that Orton or Sheamus could win and then the other one would capture the WHC at Elimination Chamber, but I don't think they will involve a title in the feud between those two.
