ROYAL RUMBLE is taking place in Sacramento, CA on January 24.  Sad, 
really.  If the WWF REALLY wanted a big PPV audience, he should have it 
right after the Super Bowl (IMHO).  Anyway, I'm going by the list 
presented by a fellow BBSer and giving the current Lost Wages odds on who 
will win the RUMBLE:
        YOKOZUNA                9-5
        BOB BACKLAND            2-1
        MR. PERFECT             5-2
        UNDERTAKER              4-1
        RIC FLAIR               4-1
        CRUSH                   5-1
        RANDY SAVAGE            6-1
        JERRY LAWLER            8-1
        CARLOS COLON(whatever)  8-1
        JIM DUGGAN              9-1
        RICK MARTEL             9-1
        DAMIEN DeMENTO          10-1
        VIRGIL                  12-1
        PAPA SHANGO             15-1
        REPO MAN                15-1
        EL MATADOR              21-1
        TENYRU                  21-1
        BERZERKER               25-1
        Nailz' replacement      25-1
        TATANKA                 25-1
        EARTHQUAKE
        TYPHOON                 field
        TED DiBIASIE            wager
        I.R.S.                  30-1
        BRIAN KNOBBS            for all
        JERRY SAGGS             tag-teams
        OWEN HART               entered
        KOKO B. WARE            in the
        SAMU                    Rumble
        FATU

Predicition:  Backland or Yokozuna.  I'd like to see either one against 
Bret Hart.  Shortest Time: Berzerker in 5 sec.  Longest:  Yokozuna, 
who'll get number 1 and sit in the middle of the ring in meditation while 
the entire Rumble passes by until he is either outsmarted by Backland or 
the only one left.  Most men thrown out: Mr. Perfect will toss 6 men out 
until Savage chucks him.

Who'll be Nailz's replacement?  My guess is Kamala, who'll do a face turn 
on Whippleman once thrown out by the Natural Disasters.

SINGLES' MATCHES:

BRET 'Hitman' HART      Pick 'Em        RAZOR RAMON
Predicition: Hart in 5-10 minutes.  Vince ain't gonna let Bret leave.  
And that means Bret must stay champ for a GOOD while!  Sorry, 'El Jeffe'!

BIG BOSS MAN            10-1-->         BAM BAM BIGELOW
Prediction: Bam Bam in 5-10.  Once again, a 'newcomer' to a WWF Supercard 
will defeat a WWF veteran.
(I know Bam Bam was in the WRESTLEMANIA IV Tournament, but that was 4 ye
-ars ago!)

STEINER BROTHERS        <--3-1          BEVERLY BROTHERS
Prediction: Stieners in under 5.  See above note.

MARTY JANNETTY          Pick 'Em        SHAWN MICHAELS
Prediction: Jannetty by CO in 10-15.  They USUALLY wait for WRESTLEMANIA
to change the I-C Title holder.  Sherri'll show up, yank Shawn out of the 
ring, and demand to know why he never called!

MAX MOON                <--9-5          TERRY TAYLOR
Prediction: Taylor in 5-10.  Taylor KNOWS RUMBLEs.  Besides, Max is too 
busy doing fancy shmacy tumbles to concentrate on wrestling.

Agree?  Disagree?  Don't give a sh*t?  Post or MAIL.  This WILL be 
updated!!!
