Alright. Here's the deal.
If you pick the winner of the Royal Rumble, you get 2 tallies added to the win column. If not, it doesn't count against you.
WWE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
The Miz (c) (with Alex Riley) v Randy Orton
WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Edge (c) v Dolph Ziggler
DIVA'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Natalya (c) vs Layla or Michelle McCool

Dion Necurat WHAT THE HELL, MAN?!? I JUST WROTE ONE ON THIS PPV!!! scream I'm sure it was just an accident. And since people already responded to this one, I deleted yours. And Jama's usually pretty good at getting the PPV cards up, so I just let him deal with it.

Eh, whatevs. I'll live.
Miz vs Orton
Winner: Miz (I Hope)
Reason: As much as Cole annoys the high holy hell out of all of us...he does raise a good point; Miz as champ is bringing the WWE much more publicity than normal. Granted, it could also be curtains for Miz's first title reign.
Edge vs Ziggler
Winner: Edge
Reason: The story isn't really well built yet. I think, given some time, it could be Ziggler's time...now isn't that time.
Natalya vs LayCool
Winner: Who cares?
Reason: Its the diva's division.
...Alright, I'll be serious on this one.
Winner: Natalya
Reason: Someone's gotta be able to take on Kong when she gets there. Natalya is probably one of two that can handle her (the other being Beth).
Royal Rumble
Winner: For this, I'm picking four likely winners. Granted, this depends on who wins the title bouts, so here we go:
Likely winner #1: Morrison
Reason: He's been getting a massive push, and no one can argue that he is ready for the main event. Granted, if Miz doesn't have the title after Sunday, count on Push-Kill retaining at WM.
Likely winner #2: Del Rio
Reason: He's been yammering on and on about how it is his "destiny" to win. As much as I'm not sold on the guy, sometimes talking a big game is enough to get the job done...plus the kid is talented. I'll give him an honest shot at this. Plus, it will set him up with a nice feud no matter who wins Sunday
Likely winner #3: King Sheamus
Reason: I like the guy, plain and simple. And he deserves the push back into the main event. I wasn't sold on him at first, but he's really grown in the business, and he can hold is own in the ring...however, if my ability to guess accurately proves, anything, he'll get screwed over...by none other than...
Likely winner #4: Triple H
Reason: Lets be honest, the whole world knows HHH is making his return on Sunday. Why not have his return be capitalized with a win here? Sure, this storyline has been abused to high holy hell, but...sidenote, that was clever...but given its The Game, I think an exception can be made. Should work brilliantly if Orton wins Sunday, but the HHH-Miz dynamic would be fun to watch as well.
And now, the man I think has the least likely chance of winning: John Cena
Reason: He's pretty much walking into a loss on this one. 9-vs-1, provided that Nexus and Corre work on the same page to take care of him. I just don't see it happening; sorry kids.

Miz over Orton
I don't think there's a reason to take it from Miz, UNLESS they think he doesn't need the belt to get enough heat. But on the flip side, Orton doesn't need a win, he's already really over.
Edge over Ziggler
Time to see Edge win using another method. The Dirty Face strikes again...
Natalya over Lay-Cool (Officially a handicap match)
ROYAL RUMBLE
OFFICIAL PiCK
Tossup, but going to go with...
Alberto Del Rio. Gut feeling.
Wild Cards (no points)
Kofi Kingston - Over face, could be a nice transition to the main event. (MitB would work better methinks, but eh)
Wade Barrett

This will probably be the hardest PPV card to call all year, just because literally anything can happen. In all of the matches, anyone could win. And the RR match is so unpredictable. So just a note that all of my picks have like zero confidence in them...
WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Edge (c) v Dolph Ziggler
Pick: Ziggler...It's crazy, and that's why it's going to happen. He'll go into Elimination Chamber, and lose it. Plus, Vickie's there...and they're just looking to put the belt on her since she's the only strong heel besides Del Rio...
DIVA'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Natalya (c) vs LayCool
Pick: LayCool...Possibly with the help of a debuting Awesome Kong. Then Natty and Beth will team up to feud with the three.
WWE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
The Miz (c) (with Alex Riley) v Randy Orton
Pick: The Miz...It will be a cheat win (much like at TLC), but it'll be something that sends him into Elimination Chamber relatively strong...where he will beat the other five guys (and look even stronger) and walk into WM as the WWE champion.
40-MAN ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH
There's so much that can happen here, but here are the things I'm almost sure will happen:
-Daniel Bryan will be either #1 or #2
-Sheamus will be eliminated by HHH, and HHH will be eliminated either at the same time or shortly after
-Del Rio will eliminate Mysterio
-Big Show will be eliminated by Corre (either the group or at least one member)
-Cena will eliminate most of Corre and Nexus, but be eliminated by Punk
-Punk will not win the Rumble
-No one who enters before #20 will win the Rumble
That being said, there are some strong guys still left that I like:
-Christian, if he returns, can go on to have a match with Edge in a face vs. face/brother vs. brother match at Mania for the belt, and that would definitely sell a lot of buys...but that's assuming he returns tonight, and it seems like a lot of guys might be returning...
-Del Rio looks strong on paper, as they've been pushing him a lot more, but there aren't really any strong babyfaces for him to feud with...he'd be more apropos on RAW, and, well, ...Miz will be the champ
But all this being said...I'm going to go with my gut-check decision...
***JOHN MORRISON WILL WIN THE ROYAL RUMBLE***
My main reasoning...remember his title shot that was kind of squandered on RAW? I think it was two-fold. 1) To see how he and Miz would work in a main event type match. 2) If they look good...to free him up from being in a title match, so that he could win the Royal Rumble. And that match was amazing, and he's been stellar since his ladder match with Sheamus. So there it is...there's my pick. JoMo to headline WM...

And my string of luck will continue. I'm not counting the Diva's bout, because seriously, who cares nowadays?

The diva's match WILL be thrown out of the judging because of the unexpected Fatal-Four-Way switch. Thanks for the reminder Dion.
