WWE ROYAL RUMBLE 2011

Tonight, live from Boston, Massachusetts at the TD Garden (home of the Boston Celtics & Bruins), the road to WrestleMania XXVII begins with the 2011 Royal Rumble. A change has been added as the Rumble match will now feature 40 superstars, instead of the traditional 30. Plus three title matches are on the line.



WWE CHAMPIONSHIP
WWE Champion The Miz vs. Randy Orton

The Miz feels he's not getting enough respect as the WWE Champion and is ready to go all out against the man who he won the title from last month, Randy Orton. Meanwhile, Orton has been waiting patiently to win back the title and he, too, is riding a wave of momentum, going into Boston.

PREDICTION: This going to be one of those "pick 'em" matches, but The Miz just might get desperate enough to do whatever it takes to keep his championship, whether he uses Alex Riley or a weapon. RANDY ORTON via DQ



WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
World Heavyweight Champion Edge vs. Dolph Ziggler

Whether he deserved it or not, Dolph Ziggler has a chance to make history this Sunday. Edge is the ultimate opportunist, but Dolph has Vicki Guerrero as the acting general manager of SmackDown. And after Vicki announced that the spear is banned, Edge will have to alter his plan against Ziggler at the Rumble.

PREDICTION: The banning of the spear might put Edge at a disadvantage, but after Edge speared Dolph like a mad man on SmackDown, the ultimate opportunist will find a way around this stipultion. EDGE



DIVAS CHAMPIONSHIP - 2-on-1 HANDICAP MATCH
Divas Champion Natalya vs. Lay-Cool (Michelle McCool & Layla)

Lay-Cool finally decided to have their rematch against Natalya since losing the title to her a couple of months ago. It is also believed that if Lay-Cool wins, they will once again be co-champions.

PREDICTION: All three divas have momentum riding into the Rumble, but keep in mind that Beth Phoenix will still be in the area if things get out of hand. NATALYA



2011 ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH

For the first time in its history, there will be 40 superstars in this match, all trying to earn a title shot at WrestleMania. Some of the superstars involved will be John Cena, CM Punk & the new Nexus, Big Show, Rey Mysterio, Kofi Kingston, The Corre, Alberto Del Rio, John Morrison, King Sheamus, and many more. The Rumble has been known for a few surprises, so be on the lookout for legends, stars that have been out of action for a while, and even divas. No prediction is needed for this one because anything is possible at this year's Royal Rumble match.
