Roman Reigns might not win The Royal Rumble and the two other names being considered as possible winners are Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose

A while ago there were reported rumors that Roman Reigns might not win The Royal Rumble and the two other names being considered as possible winners are Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose. Thoughts?
My thoughts: In all honesty, Reigns is not ready for a push that big but if it's gonna happen then it's gonna happen and all we can do is deal with it. He needs more work on the mic, He got the look, but he just needs more work on his promos. As for Ziggler and Ambrose, those are two men, very talented wrestlers, amazing in the ring, and unique in their own ways. Both men are the hottest stars right now but if one of them were to get that push to win the royal rumble and headline wrestlemania then I say give it to Ziggler. I love Ambrose and all, he's awesome but it's not his time yet. All three members of The Shield will be champion so I say leave Ambrose for last, now as for Ziggler, he has been on fire as of late with great momentum, and let's be honest his performance in the last two pay per views have been amazing. His performance at survivor series with the never say die attitude was great, he's finally getting the push he deserves and it's safe to say that Dolph Ziggler is back from the dead. So if they don't give the royal rumble to roman then give it ziggler because he deserves it more and I think he should be champion again.

CM Punk interview takes shocking turn when he becomes polite, humble.

CM Punk interview takes shocking turn when he becomes polite, humble: “I don’t get to meet all my fans face-to-face, so I love having a forum like this on which to express my gratitude for their loyal support,” Punk added, to the great astonishment of everyone watching. Landsberg stammered nervously during a follow-up question, but Punk neither rolled his eyes dismissively nor took a drawn-out, vainglorious swig of coffee. Viewers were unanimously befuddled by Punk’s odd behavior, given his prior track record of treating media interviews like a laborious chore to appease morons who are beneath him. The 15-minute interview carried on with Punk and answering — without obvious disdain, sarcasm or ego — any questions the interviewer asked. “I try not to take myself to0 seriously,” chuckled Punk. It is believed that Punk was suffering from a high fever, and will resume his usual holier-than-thou grandiloquence soon.
