-== ECW ==
-Does anyone knows if ECW wrestlers will join the royal rumble match? [[User:SOAD KoRn|SOAD KoRn]] 21:08, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
-:No idea, though by SummerSlam I think we'll have an idea of what will happen. --<font color="#2020C0"><b>[[User:Oakster|Oakster]]</b> <sup>[[User talk:Oakster|(Talk)]]</sup></font> 22:01, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
-If ECW does become part of it, the Rumble match will probably have to be 10 from each brand now. 10 from Raw, 10 from SmackDown!, and 10 from ECW. [[User:12.37.71.179|12.37.71.179]] 04:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
-::It was announced on ECW.com
-<blockquote>
-"
-For the first time ever, WWE's Royal Rumble will be taken to the extreme as ECW invades this 20th annual pay-per-view event
-on Jan. 28. Read more
-Also for the first time ever, Extremists will participate in the traditional 30-man Royal Rumble Match itself, the winner receiving a championship main event match at WrestleMania 23.

-=='''Regarding local commercials revealing Spoilers'''==
-This is a big issue that seems to attract a lot of vandalism to upcoming wrestling event articles. The problem being that random people deliberately add matches to the upcoming event's card that have supposedly been announced on commercials aired during RAW, Smackdown!, or ECW. Once these people are confronted about their additions of these spoilers, they tend to use the commercials as their source. The problem is that they do not seem to realize that these promos shown when a WWE broadcast goes off the air during commercials are actually only airing on specific local areas and are NOT in fact being shown nation wide. WWE (at times) unintentionally releases commercials and promos on future events, spoiling matches and sometimes even their outcomes, to the specific local media outlet. This is stupidly done to attract interest from fans in that local area and increase possible attendance and buyrate figures for the upcoming event. The most recent case being the Vengeance DX promo notable for being released in some areas roughly two months before the actual event took place. Only when matches are announced on-screen by talent or during the actual WWE broadcast and NOT during commercials can this sort of information NOT be considered a spoiler. Some may argue, "So what if they aren't shown nation wide, they were still released by World Wrestling Entertainment which means they are legit and therefore all matches spoiled have a right to be added to articles!" Now the problem with that simply is this... It is unencyclopedic. You see, what these people fail to realize is that Wikipedia is NOT, I repeat, NOT a Wrestling News site. [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a crystal ball|Wikipedia is not a crystal ball]] and therefore cannot provide spoilers on future history or events that have yet to be. Wikipedia is an internet encyclopedia, in other words, it's an ENCYCLOPEDIA. If you honestly feel the need to be an [[Internet Troll]] and add content spoiling what has yet to occur (in this case about wrestling), then please do so elsewhere such as... oh wow! ...a Wrestling News site! As best stated on Wikipedia Policy... "Before adding any sort of content, ask yourself what would a reader expect to find in an encyclopedia." ...and I highly doubt that you would be expecting to find out who will be in the main event at WrestleMania 100, even if you do happen to find a promo somewhere right now announcing it to be Hulk Hogan vs. Vince McMahon's grandson. Content such as spoilers, rumors, and other nonsense will be removed on the spot for the reasons just explained. This content simply does not comply with [[Help:Contents/Policies and guidelines|Wikipedia's Policies and guidelines]] and the addition of it is considered vandalism. Once again, please do NOT add any sort of content that even you would know is a spoiler (spoiling future history and events that have yet to be} and unencyclopedic. If you do in fact feel the need to be an [[Internet Troll]], please do so elsewhere and not on Wikipedia. Thank you for reading and I honestly do hope that this clears up any confusion over spoilers and why they are being removed. Thank you. -- [[User:3bulletproof16|<font color="blue">'''bullet'''</font><font color="green">'''proof'''</font>]] <sup>[[User talk:3bulletproof16|<font color="black">'''3:16'''</font>]]</sup> 20:06, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
-== Poster ==
-Do NOT add in a poster unless you have proof that it comes from an official website (like wwe.com). [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 22:57, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
-Keeping Kayfabe
-i was thinking why dont wiki put a lock on so that matches cant be added until a month before or something because in most cases this is the time they release it officaly ((Dazzy1994)) 21:17 11 December 06 ((Uk))
-:It will probably get denied since there isn't much vandalism yet. You are right though, this article will get a lot of vandalism though just like every WWE PPV article does in  the weeks leading up to the event, and this article will end up semi-protected just like the others.

-== Royal Rumble Match ==
-why wait untill at least one participant has been announced? its going to be a definate match, so why wait?[[User:Cradle666|Cradle666]] 13:53, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
-:That is just the way it's usually done, even WWE doesn't list the match this early either. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 21:32, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
-well someone obvously doesnt read this or the warning put on the edit page so i have taken down the royal rumble match as every other bugger does it to me. [[User:Cradle666|Cradle666]] 16:31, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
-:But who says its gonna be a definate match the WWE may decide to shonk us and not include it for some reason ha ha, highly doubtful but hey anything can happen in the WWE. [[User:The Legendary One|The Legendary One]] 04:42, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
-::There is no need for the whole logic of "just the way it's usually done". The match will happen, and the whole warning note wasn't needed at all. [[User:RobJ1981|RobJ1981]] 21:06, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::It wouldn't be needed if people didn't keep adding the match in. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 22:35, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
-So, why shouldn't it be added until one person has been announced? Is there a reason other than tradition? -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 05:31, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
-Its says on WWE.com there will be a royal rumble and they've added it to the matches.{{unsigned|144.132.172.7}}
-:You are kinda late, that's why I didn't revert it since WWE officially announced it. Welcome BTW. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 03:41, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-Then for future reference, is there a reason other than tradition? -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 11:15, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-:I think it's just getting ahead of ourselves. Technically, we could put for the Royal Rumble of next year the Royal Rumble match down right now, but considering we still have an entire year to go through of PPV's, not to mention another New Year's Revolution, it just doesn't make much sense to add it in now. Plus, I know this is doubtful, but it's possible that there may not BE a Royal Rumble match at a Royal Rumble PPV. Wait, just wait, let me explain. We've had Survivor Series without traditional Survivor Series matches (2002, 1998 comes to mind). It's much rarer to not have a Rumble match than a traditional Survivor Series match, but, it could happen. But, overall, I think it is just tradition to wait until WWE.com posts the match or until we have one participant, whichever comes first. Personally, I have no problem with it. [[User:Anakinjmt|Anakinjmt]] 15:27, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-::Well, the anons do care. Ignoring them without a good reason, tradition that has nothing to do with policy isn't a good reason, is a nasty habit that too many of us have started. Also, for more than a decade there has been a Royal Rumble matchup. To say that we shouldn't add it because it may not happen is just foolish IMO. Besides, Wikipedia hasn't been around long enough for any of these "traditions" to be set in stone. Also, it isn't just rare to not have a Royal Rumble match at the Royal Rumble PPV, it hasn't ever happened. As far as the next Royal Rumble PPV, that article shouldn't even exist yet IMO. Cheers, -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 22:21, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::It also has to do with matches not being added until they are announced by WWE. WWE just finally announced it the other day, and that's why I stopped removing it. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 23:15, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-::::In this case is waiting really necessary? There is a certain ammount of common sense that we are allowed to apply to this kind of thing. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 23:19, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::::But again, you never know what they may pull in WWE. I think most people before the main event of December to Dismember was announced that that New Year's Revolution would have an Elimination Chamber match again (I certainly did). And, again, Survivor Series has had PPV's before where they haven't had traditional survival matches. I realize it hasn't happened yet with the Rumble, but better to be safe than sorry. Plus, technically, until WWE or WWE.com has announced the Rumble match, addition of the Rumble match could (I believe anyway) be considered speculation, which is most definitely not allowed. It's too late now to do this, but I'd suggest for next year's Royal Rumble (again, assuming they have it, which is pretty much a given, but still) that we put in a note saying something like "Please do not add the Rumble match until WWE or WWE.com has officially announced the match." Something to that effect. [[User:Anakinjmt|Anakinjmt]] 14:27, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
-::::::It is on WWE.com now, so we can keep it on the page.[[User:Inuyasha73036|Freebird Jackson]] 15:47, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::::::Right, I'm talking about next year's Rumble PPV. [[User:Anakinjmt|Anakinjmt]] 17:55, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::::::Yeah, we're just planning ahead. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]'''
-Anyway, as I said before there has never been a Royal Rumble PPV without a Royal Rumble Match. Common sense says that there never will be, as that is considered the biggest PPV other than Wrestlemania. The fan backlash would be tremendous, and the buyrate would be terrible. There will never ever be a Royal Rumble PPV without a Royal Rumble match. We do know that about what the WWE will pull, and it isn't speculation. No RR would be terrible for business, and it will never ever happen. That being said, leaving it out of the article until it is announced is pointless. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 23:34, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
-:I'll just state this once more, but I think again it's just to keep us from getting ahead of ourselves. I certainly agree with you on the odds of there being a Royal Rumble match, but again, it's just to keep from getting ahead of ourselves too much. [[User:Anakinjmt|Anakinjmt]] 20:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
-::My response to this would be the same as my last paragraph, which means that we are just going in circles with no end in sight. I'll drop it. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 23:26, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
-== Smackdown championship match ==
-Given that it's not known that [[Dave Bautista|Batista]] will hold the title by the [[Royal Rumble (2007)|Royal Rumble]], should we even be saying anything other than it's a title match? wwe.com [http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/matches/35535101/preview/] specifies that:
-<blockquote>
-The World Heavyweight Championship, currently held by Batista, will be contested at the Royal Rumble. Per General Manager Theodore Long's orders, the winner of Friday's SmackDown Beat the Clock Sprint will get an opportunity to challenge the Animal, '''or whoever the Champion is''' at the annual January pay-per-view spectacular. [my emphasis]
-</blockquote>
---[[User:Batsnumbereleven|Dave.]] 22:10, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-:As of right now he is the champ, if he loses the belt hen we will change it. Plus, Theodore Long said Batista would be happy to defend the belt against the winner. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 23:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
-::Okay. --[[User:Batsnumbereleven|Dave.]] 09:24, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
-The match is Batista vs Ken Kennedy and that is final. No point changing it --[[User:86.134.154.245|86.134.154.245]] 15:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
-: or at least "final" until next week's [[WWE Friday Night SmackDown!|SmackDown!]]; we haven't seen Teddy Long's reaction to Kennedy's interference yet. --[[User:Batsnumbereleven|Dave.]] 16:25, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
-:If you were refering to the countless reverts, those were because Wikipedia doesn't use spoilers in wrestling articles. Now that it has aired most everywhere, it will not be removed. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 16:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
-== Royal Rumble match 2==
-Shouldn't we put now who will be the people evolved in the Royal Rumble match? That was based in this article http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/exclusives/39182221 on WWE.com who says that these wrestlers will be in the match:
-Kenny Dykstra, Chris Masters, Viscera (and maybe Jeff Hardy, Shelton Benjamin, Carlito and Johnny Nitro, if I read well) [[User:Xbox6|Xbox6]] 01:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

-== ECW World Title ==
-If you look at this [http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/exclusives/39182221/], it merely says the winner get a "World Championship" shot at Wrestlemania.
-However, WWE has shown that they consider the ECW Title on par with the WWE or World Heavyweight Titles (Cyber Sunday).
-So this would have to mean that all 3 titles are eligible to be chosen.  (3 brands -- 3 titles)
-{{unsigned|75.36.8.49}}
-:That would be original research. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 23:54, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
-::Unfortunantly, it's obvious an ECW superstar won't win, so we can cut this debate out. Vince Mcmahon has shown that he couldn't care less about the ECW brand (as shown at December 2 Dismember). But there is a point though. If by some one in a million chance an ECW superstar wins, whats he gonna do, challenge for the WWE Title? I think thats the reason why the ECW World Heavyweight Championship was brought in. There still is the fact that ECW likely won't get much farther. VKM won't have ECW at the top of the greatest PPV to ever exist. [[User:Killswitch Engage|Killswitch Engage]] 00:38, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Killswitch Engage
-:::He is trying to give it some credibility, though he is failing miserably, so it is possible that he would have an ECW guy win, or he may have the winner challenge for the ECW Title. We shouldn't rule out this possibility as of yet, though my money is on the Undertaker.

-::The news i'm reading is that Undertaker's contract says he can get either the RR win or a WM win, and I can't see him having his streak ended. Anways, it's well known that Vince wants ECW to be another farm league (like OVW and DSW) as a way to train wrestlers before they go to RAW/SmackDown!, so I doubt an ECW guy would win. [[User:TJ Spyke|TJ Spyke]] 00:47, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
-:::True, I don't see the streak ending yet either. I wasn't aware of that particular clause in his contract, and since I was hearing rumors of him vs. Batista I figured that it was a fair guess. Anyway, I was just saying that we shouldn't rule it out yet since Vince is making a little bit of an effort to save the sinking ship since he signed a somewhat long-term contract with Sci-Fi, and having the RR winner challenge for the ECW Title would help it feel like it was actually worth something and not just a fashion statement. Though I don't think that this will be the case, it is a very real possibility, and not one that should be ruled out immediately. -- '''[[Special:Contributions/The Hybrid|<font color="Blue">The</font>]] [[User:The Hybrid|<font color="Red">Hyb</font>]][[User Talk:The Hybrid|<font color="Green">rid</font>]]''' 03:17, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
-::::The thing of debate that I see, is the the ECW Title has been said to be on par with the WWE Championship and the WHC (ex.Cyber Sunday). What I see is people saying that the title is a World Title and as such will be defended at WM if nessecary. Now I don't know about what that one magazine recognizes it as, but my earlier days would tell me that that is reasonable enough to add. But now, I'm telling anon's that, however much you may want it to be, it's not enough for us. We would need full recognition from WWE to be able to confirm that the title can be selected as a title to be challenged for at WM. On the Undertaker thing, Iv'e heard say that Batista will end Takers streak, retaining the WHC. Many people I have talked to have said that Batista is not seasoned enough to be the man to end the streak, that it should be someone like Kane, who has history with Taker. Sorry, kinda rambled, but I decided to see if I could make myself useful. [[User:killswitch Engage]]

-:Reminds me of the debate at Armageddon over which match goes where. The way we're doing it (I don't know if it's policy or just tradition) is to list each match as it is announced. I do think the Rumble match should go last, as we all know that will be the last event, and that is THE main event, but honestly, it doesn't really matter to me, because once the PPV's over, it will be changed according to which matches came first.
