Booker T and Kevin Nash are scheduled to appear as surprise entrants for tomorrow night’s 40-Man Royal Rumble Match, reports PWInsider.com.

Booker T was expected earlier based on recent talks with organization officials and his scheduled appearance at the New Orleans Comic Con this weekend being canceled. Company sources confirmed this morning he is set for the 40-Man Royal Rumble Match.

WWE sources have also confirmed that Nash is booked for the match and is scheduled to fly into Boston later today. He was in discussions with TNA Wrestling officials as late as yesterday to finalize a contract with the organization, but instead opted to return to World Wrestling Entertainment.

Meanwhile, TNA Wrestling sources have confirmed that discussions with Nash fell through. Both sides had been negotiating on and off with sources indicating at one point that a deal was finalized. An infuriated Nash then accused TNA personnel of leaking the information, which led to new rounds of negotiations. He admitted last week to a Puerto Rican newspaper that he was in talks with TNA regarding a return to the organization. The aforementioned discussions ended within the past 24 to 48 hours.

so now with this, 36 are now confirmed.
With HHH being the 37'th and 2 legends appearing who will be the 40th person?

these two - :hogan: :Ric:

my pick is batista as the 40th

Hobo, you are the King of Smiley's

Not too late the the party am I? Haha.

Possible Skip Sheffield return?

HHH wil return then after Sheamus eliminates Nash!

Samo, welcome to the board m8

I have to say im dissapointed in the 'E' getting Nash.
I mean, come on, he can hardly walk let alone wrestle.

Yes he might have the shock factor etc, but WWE could of got someone better for that 'shock' moment.

i think taker may return 2moz night.


i feel obliged to do this


:Ric: :wooo: :wooo: :wooo: :wooo: :wooo:

My bet is for the gong and lights out and Barrett being eliminated!

Not surprised by the news tbh. I thought Booker T would be in it anyway.

It's Chicharito here btw.

i agree Fernando, i mentioned this is in my 'return of the deadman' article.

KB, i will cream my pants if the lights go out and i hear the Dong!
Taker is one of my favourites, am crossing my fingers he returns.
With all the dirt sheets being so quiet, am thinking WWE have kept his return so secret it may be tommorow.
Heres hoping

If not, am expecting the Raw GM to reveal himself and get involved in some way

welcome to the board Chicharito / Basketcase :chewie:

i just don't get how they going to book the taker vs barrett angle with barrett no longer being apart of nexus cos if it was nexus why would he just go for only barrett?

maybes cos he was the leader at the time.
Thing is, Barrett is now on Smackdown i.e. Takers show.
With Corre, Barrett and his cronies could follow a similar storyline with Taker, as what they did to Cena on Raw.
Corre v Taker every week with spooky shyte happening backstage, unexpected events etc leading to Barrett v Taker at Wrestlemania

Batista to return and be revealed as the GM would be AWESOME :wooo:

I had read somewhere pwinsider I think that taker has been backstage at alot of smackdown shows. Spending time with his wife? Or preparing for the rumble? :chewie:

welcome Mr Kasper

Taker was backstage last week at Smackdown, but again, it was very hush hush

Good evening Y I. Yes I'd read that. I'm pretty sure Evan Bourne will be involved. My only worry is khali may make his triumphant return from exile in India ( secretly known as the big brother house) :joker:

Khali could be a possibilty, but he wont win it.
Im thinking that this 40th person is someone that no one has thought of, or someone who could win the rumble or have a say who wins in (raw Gm etc)
My pick is undertaker

I'm just going to throw this out there. Michael cole. Miz loses the title that night and cole wins the rumble he gives the contract to miz so he can go to wrestlemania. The heat created for cole would be historic. Would reinforce is friendship/alliance with the miz and ari

Kasper,

That happens, cue millions of fans switching to TNA.

If Cole wins, we riot.

What about Sting, with the HOF apparently being WCW themed, any chance The Icon could win the rumble.
Just imagine it, the lights go out on number 40, Is it taker, who is it!
BAM ITS STING ITS STING, smashes Cena with the bat and wins the rumble! 8)

Hegzy thats not going to happen

Relastically it'll be Del Rio or Punk, most likely Punk

KB,
For storyline effect that would be huge. It won't happen but it just popped into my head and I thought I'd share it. What do you realistically see happening?

For effect it would be but I and most of the IWC would rudey poo all over it.

My predo's....

Takers gong to go off and lead to Barretts elimination.
Sheamus to go on a Kane style streak, eliminates Nash and then HHH returns, but not as an entrant and takes Sheamus out.

Last 5 I expect to be Punk, Cena, Morrisson, Mason Ryan, Del Rio.

Ryan eliminates Morrison
Punk eliminates Cena
Punk and Ryan eliminate ADR
Ryan exits ring to give Punk the win.

definately a possible ending KB,
Im expecting a stint in the rumble for the full Nexus v Corre members at some point

I honestly cannot wait for this, to be honest. Not been this pumped up for a WWE PPV since WM26. The possibilities are endless, really. My guess is that CM Punk has this one in the bag. If not him then Alberto Del Rio or John Cena. :cyclops:
