Eve Torres leaving WWE.

Eve is said to be burnt out from being on the road and has talked about taking time off to get married and work on her home, as well as other personal goals like her self-defense program for women.

That would put her next on the growing list of ladies departing WWE over the past year, right alongside Beth Phoenix, Kelly Kelly, Kharma, and Nikki and Brie Bella.

Recently, Torres was engaged to be married to Rener Gracie, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor from the famous Gracie family. Eve has become a spokeswoman and head instructor a self-defense program using the same name and at 28-years-old and on the cusp of starting a family, may want to ease off the brutal schedule wrestling with WWE demands.

Because they have done the DX reunion so many times, The Wrestling Observer reports that WWE officials have discussed doing an Evolution reunion, possibly at the RAW 20th Anniversary show next week.

With Triple H, Ric Flair and Randy Orton already in the building, the main issue would be getting Batista to come back for one night.


Regarding The Rock winning the WWE Title from CM Punk, there is a lot of talk that the title change won't happen at the Royal Rumble.

Instead, Rock would win the title at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view in the Chamber main event.

Batista. would love to see him in WWE again.

Evolution is a mystery epic stable when they were split up my interest in watching every week went away

Intro music was epic too

[zizzle]

that was actually a good raw yesterday, except for super cena part

[Onyx]

There was speculation on Randy Orton's status after he lost clean to Wade Barrett on last night's RAW from Houston. F4Wonline.com reports this is just a part of Orton's heel turn. He will be facing Antonio Cesaro on this week's WWE Main Event.

There has been a lot of internal talk about Dolph Ziggler's future lately.
As noted, officials have discussed breaking Big E Langston away from Ziggler and AJ Lee but it sounds like he might stay with AJ.

They are discussing this not because of a possible Langston face turn but because of a Ziggler babyface turn.

Vince McMahon has been changing his mind back and forth on Ziggler as a babyface but it's more when and not if. A lot of people in the company feel that Ziggler will take off huge as a babyface when the call is made.

The fact that Ziggler is already popular in the New York market is said to be influencing Vince's decision.

--------------------


The current layout for WWE's Royal Rumble pay-per-view has a Rumble qualifying match planned for the YouTube pre-show, a Divas Title match that has not been determined yet, Kane and Daniel Bryan vs. Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow, Big Show vs. Alberto Del Rio, CM Punk vs. The Rock and the 30-man Rumble match.

A timed out script shows the Divas match for 10 minutes, the Tag Team Title match for 10 minutes, the World Heavyweight Title match for 20 minutes, the WWE Title match for 30 minutes and the Rumble main event set for 70 minutes total.

These times include intros, the match itself and post-match happenings.

The script does not have winners or Rumble entrants at this point but does show that no other matches are scheduled such as The Miz vs. Antonio Cesaro.

[Onyx]

So who do you think will win the Royal Rumble?

[RealGunner]

Cena in the 30 man rumble match ?

[Onyx]

Yeh.

[RealGunner]

Hmm. Good matches i guess. Hopefully there are some twists n stuff.

[Onyx]

Brock Lesnar to return.

[RealGunner]

Lesnar to interfere in the Rock Punk match, then HHH comes on to kick the shit out of him

[Onyx]

Sets up Rock vs Lesnar at WrestleMania.

[adnyana179]

I'm really interested to see what impact the Shield make in the new few months towards WM. They could build towards a 3 v 3 match at Mania or even a handicap 2 v 3.

Wouldn't mind something like this from the midcard up (more fantasy than reality I think):

Rock vs Lesnar

Undertaker vs. Cena

HHH vs. CM Punk

Orton vs. Sheamus

Ryback vs. Big Show

Shield vs. Team Hell No

OR

Rock vs. Cena vs Punk

Undertaker vs. Lesnar

HHH and New Age Outlaws vs. Shield

Orton vs. Sheamus

Ryback vs. Big Show

EDIT: Ziggler to cash in his MITB during the event also.

[adnyana179]

So who do you think will win the Royal Rumble?

I think the obvious choices are either Ryback or Cena, but I wouldn't be surprised if we see a swerve.

[Onyx]

We've noted how WWE officials are interested in bringing back some familiar midcard names to the roster. Part of the reason for this is to help with live event attendance, mainly on the SmackDown side.

- It was recently reported that Tommy Dreamer's name was brought up in a WWE creative meeting about surprise Royal Rumble entrants. MVPand Shelton Benjamin were also discussed for the Rumble. Their names have came up a lot within the company lately.

They are part of the list of talents WWE would like to bring back to help with the roster depth and attendance. The problem with MVP returning is that he's under contract to New Japan.

Another name rumored within WWE recently was Low Ki, formerly known as Kaval on NXT. Kaval is considered a long shot and his return is probably just a rumor.

One team we can expect to see in the 30-man Rumble match is The New Age Outlaws - "Road Dogg" BG James and Billy Gunn.

Found this, not sure if it's an official promo, could be shown on RAW tomorrow if it is:
