How I would book WWE Royal Rumble 2017, Elimation Chamber 2017 and Fastlane 2017:

Royal Rumble 2017:
So let's start with the Royal Rumble 2017. The show opens with Charlotte vs Bayley where Charlotte manages to beat Bayley with the help of Nia Jax who was defeated by Sasha Banks on the pre-show via count-out. The reason behind the attack is not that Jax wants to help Charlotte, it's because Jax is completely furios that she had lost to someone like Banks so she wants to injure Banks best friend. Banks comes to the ring to help Bayley but she gets destroyed by Jax. Charlotte looks down to Banks and Bayley who are lying on the ground and she starts to laugh until Nia Jax attacks Charlotte too. Nia Jax takes the Women's Championship and is upholding it with all 3 other women lying on the ground.
Next match is Neville vs Swann where Neville finally manages to get his first championship in the main roster by defeating Swann clean. Neville looks like a monster in this match and Michael Cole often refers to him as the Brock Lesnar of the Cruiserweight Division. I think Neville and the Cruiserweight belt deserve a long reign to make them both look important.
Next match is Owens vs Reigns. I think a lot people won't like this but I think Reigns should go over clean. We have seen srew jobs way too often in the last few months and this championship win are the seeds for a later Reigns heel turn and a Owens vs Jericho fued.
Next match is Cena vs Styles. Probably going to top the Summerslam bout and be the match of the night and a MOTY candidate. Both guys look amazing in this match and try everything to beat the other but in the end Styles manages to beat Cena clean again just like Summerslam 2016 and this makes Styles look like a monster.
And the main event should be the Royal Rumble match. Samoa Joe makes his main roster debut at number 3 (just like Styles last year) and Tye Dillinger make his main roster debut at number 10. Samoe Joe looks like a huge deal in this match. Lesnar/Goldberg fued goes to the next level in the match, Seth Rollins enters the match too although he is not allowed to (which leads to Triple H who is not a participant of the match coming to the ring and attacking Rollins) etc.etc.etc., a very surprising thing that most people wouldn't have thought is that Cena is also part of the match. And in the end it's only Cena and Undertaker! Just imagaine how the crowd would go insane. The reason why I am booking this is because this should be a huge teaser for Wrestlemania 34 which will be Undertaker's career ending match. In the end it should be The Undertaker who wins the Royal Rumble match just like ten years ago in 2007 the same thing happened in Texas.

Next RAW episode:
Gallows and Anderson defeated Cesaro and Sheamus for the Raw Tag Team belts in the pre-show and they beat them again to defend the belts at RAW. They should start a fued now with Enzo & Big Cass which will lead to a match at Fastlane.
Main event segment: Kevin Owens is very angry after losing his belt so he yells at Jericho that it was his fault that he lost the belt and that Jericho is a loser because he wasn't able to win the Rumble match. Both don't break up at this point, Jericho apologizes to Owens. Jericho says that Owen's has his rematch clause at Fastlane and this time Jericho will do everything to help Owens win his belt back. Reigns enters the ring and says he is ready for Owens at Fastlane and that he is ready to do everything to be in the title match at Wrestlemania. Samoa Joe appears out of nowhere and enters the ring with Reigns, Jericho and Owens. He challenges Jericho for a match. Raw crowd is cheering for Joe but he says that he is neither a official Raw superstarts nor a SmackDown superstar because he hasn't signed a contract yet. Under this circumstances Stephanie allows Samoe Joe to fight against Jericho at Fastlane but it's not going to be for the US belt (just like Styles had match with Jericho at Fastlane 2016). It looks like all 4 are going to brawl in the ring until Goldberg music hits. Crowd is cheering for him. Goldberg announces that he wants to challenge Reigns too for the Universal belt, Owens gets angry and insults Goldberg, then he tries to attack him but he runs into a spear from Goldberg. Jericho looks at his bestfriend lying on the ground, Jericho wants to attack Goldberg to revenge his friend but he gets a jackhammer from Goldberg. Samoa Joe, Reigns and Goldberg are starring on each other, Goldberg looks at Reigns belt and smiles. Reigns has accepted the challenge.

Next SmackDown episode:
Styles opens the show by saying that he proved again that he is the best one in SmackDown. Shane McMahon comes in to the ring and tells him that there is one last big step left before Wrestlemania 33 and that's the Elimination Chamber match. At SmackDown we see Kane defeating Baron Corbin, Bray Wyatt defeating Luke Harper, Tye Dillinger (signed a SmackDown contract) defeating The Miz and Dolph Ziggler defeating Dean Ambrose to enter the Elimination Chamber match. Daniel Bryan also announces that Cena is going to be the last entry in the match because he had an amazing performance at the Royal Rumble, first in the Styles vs Cena match and second the last one being eliminated by The Undertaker. The Undertaker get's the main event segment in this SmackDown episode where he announces that he will decide which champion he wants to face at Wrestlemania at the RAW episode after Fastlane.

The final match cards for Elimination Chamber 2017 and Fastlane 2017 should look like this:

Elimination Chamber 2017:
Mojo Rawley vs Curt Hawkins (pre-show)
American Alpha (c.) vs The Usos
Alexa Bliss (c.) vs Naomi
Dean Ambrose (c.) vs Baron Corbin
Nikki Bella vs Natalya
Randy Orton vs Luke Harper
AJ Styles (c.) vs John Cena vs Bray Wyatt vs Kane vs Dolph Ziggler vs Tye Dillinger

Fastlane 2017:
Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson (c.) vs Enzo Amore & Big Cass
Charlotte (c.) vs Nia Jax
Jericho (c.) vs Samoa Joe -> not for the belt
Neville (c.) vs Swann
Big Show vs Braun Strowman
[A Seth Rollins segment where he challenges Triple H for a match at Wrestlemania 33]
Roman Reigns (c.) vs Goldberg vs Kevin Owens -> elimination match



What do you think? If you have any question so far you can ask them to me. I have booked WWE all up to Wrestlemania 34.
And yeah sorry for my English... ^^

For the Rumble, I agree with everything except for the part about Triple H and Seth Rollins. I'd have Triple H make his return in the match, where the Final Four is him, Undertaker, Cena, and Samoa Joe and when it looks like he might win, SETH Rollins comes charging down the ring, beats the hell out of him and eliminates him from the match, payback and karma for how Triple H cost Rollins the match on RAW.

Other than that, give this man the book!!!

Also, I now understand why he has no trouble seeing out from the tiny space under his head-wrap.  He was already used to it.

Cannot unsee.

Man, he used to be so fat. And he isn't even as fat in that picture as he was when he first started out. I was watching some old UWF a while ago, and he was just shockingly huge in it. As the world's foremost Yutaka Yoshie fan, it kind of makes me sad to see a man shed so much glorious tonnage.

Wow.  That's some serious street cred.  I can't hang with that.

Strong vs. "Cien" match was damn good.  Loved all the strikes and reversals.  Felt more like a PWG or New Japan match than a WWE match.



Ok so I missed the first hour of the show (Church and Dinner) what happened?



Ok, so I'm 2 for 2 so far.



Around the Network

Make that 3 for 3!
NEW NXT Tag Team Champs!!



SETH ROLLINS?!?!?



DIY is excellent and AOP put in a solid performance. That was a fun match. Looking forward to the rematch.



Oh, and I hate Sanity's theme so much. It gives me all these Primus-fueled, "That 70's Show" type flashbacks.



STILL NXT WOMEN'S CHAMPION

Shame the match ended just when it was getting going. Seems to be a theme/pattern with these Asuka matches.
They start out slow, and when they just start to get a head of steam behind them, it's over.
I get that Asuka's more of a destroyer than a wrestler and the theme is to make short work of her opponents, but seeing as how this was a Fatal 4 Way match, ESPECIALLY since she had a number's disadvantage going against Billie Kay and Peyton Royce, they could have broken that rule tonight and really given them a lot of time.
But nope. Now Peyton and Billie's momentum has hit a wall.
But anyways, still a good match, but it could've been better.

Oh and, 4 for 4.
