Chapter 29 is here and we are now in the Royal Rumble. I always enjoy watching the show, especially the surprise participants. Earlier this year I love how Rey Mysterio came back and the crowd I was watching it with popped for his return. Yeah, I marked out so what?

I love Rey Mysterio and he is fucking awesome. Got to meet him when he came down here…I am taller than him lol. Hopefully 2019 they will have a good rumble where the winners who win it…ACTUALLY WIN THE TITLES AT WRESTLEMANIA! Fucked up with Nakamura and Asuka those pieces of shits.

Anyways, last time we saw Ruby getting her ass kicked by Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Wil she show up to get her revenge? Wil she get a chance to regain her title? And will her return to the ruble where she made her debut 29 pages ago be a success or failure?

Tune in today to find out. Also thanks to my friend theXman99 for his help. I appreciate it my friend and thanks to everyone for the reviews. Always fun to read them and glad you guys like them. Hope you like this PPV and what I got in store for everyone afterwards.

All right, well with what being said we should get started with the disclaimer. I don't own anything from WWE. I only own my OCs. Now, enjoy the chapter everyone and let the 31th Royal Rumble begin!

The show finally begins at the 31st Royal Rumble pay-per-view has pyro going off and the fans of Philadelphia begin cheering loudly. 17,629 fans in attendance as they get ready for the show and hope they won't be disappointed like they were in 2015 and for Pittsburgh, which was not far away in 2014.

The first match of the night began with Brock Lesnar defending his Universal Championship against Braun Strowman and Kane. It was a triple threat match with the three powerhouses trying to take down one another to get the victory. Brock trying to show his dominance, but was overpowered by Strowman who wanted to show it is his time to win the title. That he was ready as he came close to winning the title.

All while Kane tried to get one more reign as champion. Showing he is still the demon of WWE. They even used weapons to take advantage of the no rules. However, Brock ended up stealing the pin from Braun Strowman and retains his title.

Surviving another day as Universal Champion as he knows now he won't have to defend the title until WrestleMania. Meaning he'll walk into the show of the immortals one year into his title reign.

The next match had the SmackDown Tag Team Champions, Bad Influence defending their titles against Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable in a two-out-of three falls match. It was finally time for Bad Influence to take on Benjamin and Gable who have been getting one over on the champions since they became number one contenders. This was also their chance to show they are fighting champions and can win. Only way to do that is to compete in a match that seems to favor more Benjamin and Gable.

The first fall went to Daniels when he got the pin on Benjamin after countering the Pay Dirt using the ropes. He then got a roll-up on him to get the first fall after ten minutes passed. However, five minutes later Chad Gable got the second fall when he hit Frankie Kazarian with the German Suplex from the top rope after Benjamin kicked him in the face. This secured the second fall so now both teams are tied.

It became a back and forth fight between the two teams as they keep countering one another. Even breaking up pins and submissions. Benjamin and Gable hit their double team move, but Daniels kicked out. Daniels and Kazarian hit their double team move, but Gable kicked out.

It finally came down to when Kazarian counterd Gable and brought out an old finisher of his. The Wave of the Future or a Swinging Reverse STO. He got the final pin and Bad Influence retained their titles. Cutting it very close as the fans cheered for the two veterans.

The third match was the men's Royal Rumble match. 30-men fought in this match to get an opportunity to challenge for the Universal or WWE Championship. The first two out are Rusev from SmackDown and Finn Bálor from Raw. The next to come out is Rhyno who ended up being eliminated by Baron Corbin who came out at number four. However, he was eliminated next by Finn in just a minute, which shocked Corbin

Corbin took his frustration out by taking out everyone in the ring, including Heath Slater who came out at number five. Elias was number six and took advantage of the fallen men as he just sang while heading towards the ring. The next participant was the NXT Champion, Andrade "Cien" Almas as he made his WWE pay-per-view debut to the main roster. And coming off his title defense against Johnny Gargano in an amazing title match that both men had.

The eight man to come out is Bray Wyatt, followed by Big E of the New Day, and Tye Dillinger at number ten, which didn't surprise the fans at all. Sheamus came out next at number 11, but noticed Heath Slater who had yet get in the ring. Slater kept getting attacked by everyone who came out and never got in the ring yet. So, Sheamus tossed him inside thinking it will be a quick elimination.

However, Slater quicly eliminated Sheamus as soon as he got in, which surprised everyone. However, he was soon eliminated by Bray Wyatt, but at least he lasted longer than Sheamus. The next ones to come out are Xavier Woods, Austin Aries, and Shinsuke Nakamura who eliminates Tye Dillinger from the Rumble.

Cesaro is next as he tries eliminating Xavier Woods from the Royal Rumble. Kofi Kingston comes out and teams with his fellow New Day partners to save Xavier from getting eliminated. Jinder Mahal came out at number 17 and got booed loudly as he hopes to make 2018 his year by winning the Rumble. Seth Rollins comes out number 18 and competes in his second Royal Rumble match.

Jinder Mahal managed to eliminate Xavier Woods and Big E, but couldn't eliminate Kofi who landed on his friends. They kept him in the match using the pancakes on the floor and got him back in helping eliminate Jinder Mahal. However, Andrade eliminated him by tossing him away from the New Day and to the outside. Seth Rollins eliminated Cesaro gaining momentum for his title match with Jason Jordan later when they face the Bar for the Raw Tag Team titles.

Rusev got eliminated next by Bray Wyatt as the number of participants in the ring began dwindling down. Matt Hardy came out next in his 'Awoken' persona as he came out to eliminate Bray and himself from the match. The next participant is John Cena as he came out to a loud chorus of boos. Cena eliminated Elias from the match before he eliminated the Hurricane who came out after him.

The next to be gone is Aiden English who came out at 22 as he hopes to make up for the loss of his friend and avenge him. Another NXT talent came out next, Adam Cole at 23 as he got a standing ovation despite the hard-hitting war he had with Aleister Black. He was taped up around his injured ribs due to the weapons they used last night. Still, he came out and had the fans behind him.

Randy Orton came out next and eliminated the NXT Champion, Andrade from the match. The 25th participant is Sakura Muta who came out making her pay-per-view debut. She came in and sprays the red mist to Aiden English before tossing him over the top rope. Eliminating him as she turned her attention to the Viper himself as the two go at it.

The Miz came out next feeling confident after regaining the Intercontinental title from Roman Reigns this past Monday Night on Raw's 25th anniversary show. Number 27 was a shocking one as it was Rey Mysterio who made his return to WWE. Rey eliminated Adam Cole and then Austin Aries who tried to tear his mask off. However, Rey managed to get over the top rope and knocks Austin on the apron.

Rey rolled back in the ring as Austin blocked a hit from Roman and kicks him in the head knocking him away. Rey runs in and hits a 619 on Aries eliminating him as he fell off the apron.

Roman Reigns came out next and got a mountain of boos from the crowd. He heads to the ring and eliminated the Miz thanks to Seth Rollins who was then tossed out by his friend. Roman told him its every man for themselves. Something Seth should have seen coming and left to the back.

Number 29 and Bobby Roode's music began to play, but no sign of him. It was then shown in the back that Bobby was laid out by someone. That someone was soon revealed to have taken his spot, Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler is back after he walked out on SmackDown weeks ago.

Ziggler came into the ring and went after Sakura then Nakamura and then Randy. Ziggler clearly all fired up after not being seen for weeks. With fans speculating he was gone, but now he is back. One more participant left as the fans got ready to see who the last participant.

All awaiting anticipating as the countdown began from 10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1…*buzzard sound*…the fans await to see who the final man is. *Rain Maker* began to play as the crowd popped loudly when they saw the final participant is. They couldn't believe it as they see it is the IWGP Heavyweight Champion himself, the 'Rainmaker' himself, Kazuchika Okada.

Okada came out to a standing ovation as the crowd cheered and chanted loudly his name all while chanting 'Holy Shit!' over and over. Okada got in the ring and eliminates Dolph Ziggler very quickly. He then faced off against Sakura Muta as she faced off against Okada. The fans cheered loudly as the daughter of the Great Muta faced off against Okada.

The two went at it as the fans cheered for them both. Until Sakura went for the Muta Lock and got hit with the RKO by Orton who eliminated her. However, Okada eliminated Randy and then Rey Mysterio as the fans cheered loudly for him. It was now down to four men in the ring.

John Cena, Roman Reigns, Shinsuke Nakamura, Kazuchika Okada himself. Okada and Nakamura worked together against Roman and Cena. All while the fans cheered for Nakamura and Okada. And booed the other two men.

Cena and Roman got beaten down, but eventually took control before focusing on themselves. Nakamura and Okada took control back as Nakamura eliminates Cena from the Rumble. Okada then eliminates Roman before leaving it down to Nakamura and Okada. Nakamura, a former 3-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion, 5-time Intercontinental Champion, and Tag Team Champion.

Kazuchika Okada, the G1 Climax 2012 and 2014 winner, New Japan Cup 2013 winner, the 4-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion, and currently the longest reigning champion. Both men get the crowd behind them and both the crowd chanting 'Yes!' over and over again. The two men go at it as both know each other so well during their time in Japan.

Nakamura hits Okada with a roundhouse kick before hitting him with a Backstabber. Okada came back in the match after hitting an Over-the-shoulder back-to-belly Neckbreaker. He then followed it up with a Diving Elbow as he prepared to finish it with the Rainmaker. Nakamura countered with a kick to the head and hits an Exploder Suplex.

Nakamura goes for the Kinshasa, but is countered with a Dropkick. He goes for the Rainmaker again, but Nakamura countered again into a Crossarm Breaker. Okada breaks the hold and when Nakamura went for the kick, Okada caught it and drives his elbow on the knee of Nakamura. He then grabs his arm and hits the Rainmaker.

Okada goes to eliminate Nakamura, but Nakamura got behind him and hits another Exploder Suplex. This time he manages to hit the Kinshasa and then eliminates Okada getting the win. Nakamura is declared the winner of the Royal Rumble match as Okada came back in the ring to shake his hands. Nakamura shakes his hand and the two men bow to each other before Nakamura begins celebrating his win knowing he gets a shot at any title he wants.

Backstage

Ruby is in the back putting on her jacket all while doing her best not to move her neck much. She wasn't injured, thank goodness, but she was still sore. The doctor felt she should not participate tonight, but she wasn't going to let this opportunity slip away from her. Not after how long it took her to come back to the Royal Rumble after making her return a year later.

She watched the rest of the show from the monitor security had backstage. She watched the Bar win back the tag team titles from Seth and Jason Jordan who couldn't compete with his injured neck. So, Seth had to fight the match on his own and ended up losing the titles to Sheamus and Cesaro. Making up for their loss in the Royal Rumble earlier.

Still, her mind was still caught up in what happened earlier. Shit, the locker room was still buzzing from Kazuchika Okada showing up. She was shocked to see another former rival in the company showing up. She didn't expect it at all and was glad to see him, but heard he just showed up for one night.

Although, if she has it her way maybe it doesn't have to be one night. If she can…no, no. She knew Vince would never go along with it, despite what her brother said. Still, if he could make it happen then…

She is interrupted when she saw who is coming towards her. "Kairi, what are you doing here?"

"Watashi wa anata no shiai mae ni anata ga dono yō ni shite iru ka o mi ni kimashita (I came to see how you are doing before your match)," said Kairi as she spoke to her girlfriend. "You feeling good for…tonight?"

Ruby sighed and held her hands. "Watashi wa ikirudarou... Shikashi, karera wa kon'ya-go ni narimasen (I'll live…but they won't after tonight."

Kairi smiles as she kisses her cheek before moving her hands up to kiss them. "Be safe…and don't do…anything crazy."

Ruby began chuckling as she kissed her girlfriend's hand back. "Kairi, it's me. Of course I'm going to do something cr…"

She is interrupted when she sees the man who has caused a lot of buzzing in the locker room. Kazuchika Okada came in with a towel over his shoulders and his IWGP title on the other shoulder. Kairi moves over next to Ruby as she sees the two former rivals staring at one another. It has been two years since the two last saw each other and two years since the two fought.

After she beat him for the title, which was the last time she was IWGP champion. Ruby's eyes turns to the IWGP title and Okada looks down at his title before looking back at her. 588 days is how long Okada has been champion. Longer than any of her seven IWGP title reigns.

Hell, even longer than any past IWGP Heavyweight Champions: Hiroshi Tanahashi, Yuji Nagata, Keiji Mutoh aka the Great Muta, Shinya Hashimoto, Big Van Vader, Tatsumi Fujinami, and the first ever IWGP Champion, Antonio Inoki. None ever getting to 500 days or over. Okada smiled at her, before Ruby smiles back.

"Kon'ya wa kōun (good luck tonight)," said Okada in Japanese before he began speaking in English. "You are going to need it."

Ruby's smile grew and nods in response. "I don't need luck, but thanks. And if I don't win tonight…" which Ruby will not let happen tonight before she moves her finger over to touch the title. "Dare ga tsugini tatakaubeki ka wakatte iru (I know who to fight next)."

Okada didn't seem bothered by Ruby's challenge and took his title before holding it up high. "Any time…anywhere…" he said before walking out.

Ruby continued to smile as she begins taping her hands. "Anytime and anywhere huh?" she looks over to the TV where it showed the WrestleMania sign. She then thinks back about what her brother said.

If he is right then maybe there is a chance to make history when she wins back the WWE title. "Hmm challenge accepted."

Later

*Worlds Apart* begins to play as Sami Zayn came out to a standing ovation. He could hear the fans singing along to his song. Sami dances his way to the ring as he looks to get his second shot at the WWE title. Despite who else is in this match.

*Fight* begins to play as Kevin Owens came out to a mixed reaction. Kevin looks on confident that he will win the WWE title tonight as he heads to the ring. He goes inside as he vows to beat Ruby and AJ Styles. He has no doubt Sami will help him win and he would in return does the same.

So the two men can both become co-WWE Champions to stick it to Shane McMahon. The two men give each other a hug as they wait for their opponents to show up.

*I Burn* begins to play next as Ruby Nite came out to a standing ovation. She heads out to the same PPV last year she made her debut in. She comes out as she gets on one knee and places her hand on the stage. She then lifts her hood and lets out a loud howl as she heads to the ring while glaring at the two men who cost her the WWE title.

She makes her way to the apron and to the ring, but is stopped by the referee. Holding her back as Kevin and Sami begin mocking her. Making fun of Ruby for what they did to her. All while she shouts at them in Japanese that she is going to kill them both.

Though the two men seem confident they have a better chance tonight, especially after what Ruby went through this past Tuesday. After they drove her through a table with the Package Piledriver. Ruby still felt some pain in her neck. But hopefully it won't bother her too much for tonight.

*Phenomenal* begins playing next as AJ Styles comes out to a standing ovation as well. He comes out with the WWE title around his waist and lifts his hood up as he poses for the crowd. AJ looks at the ring where his three opponents await him. For weeks he had to deal with the drama of Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan who were fighting for what they both wanted to do.

The only reason this match happened was because Kevin and Sami took AJ out. Then they beat Ruby after some cheating so that is how this match came about. Still, AJ didn't mind this as long as he can make up for what happened at Clash of Champions. And if he gets the chance beat Ruby.

If not then he can beat Kevin or Sami or both to prove he deserves the title. Beat them all and shut up all the doubters.

He heads into the ring as the referee Greg Hamilton makes the announcements. "The following contest is a fatal four-way match, it is set for one-fall, and it is for the WWE CHAMPIONSHIP!" the crowd cheered as Ruby and AJ are kept on one side of the ring while their opponents on the other side.

"Introducing the challengers, first from Montreal, Quebec, Canada…" Greg Hamilton began as Sami begins pointing to himself to the crowd while mocking Ruby. "Weighting in at 212 pounds… Sami Zayn!" the crowd booed loudly as Sami didn't seem to care.

"Introducing next, from Marieville, Quebec, Canada. Weighing in at 266 pounds…Kevin Owens!" Greg Hamilton announced as the crowd gives a booed loudly, while Kevin eyes at AJ and Ruby.

"Next, from Tokyo Japan. She is the Wolf of the Rising Sun, the Empress of Japan…Ruby Takashi!" Greg Hamilton announced as Ruby lets out a loud howl as the crowd cheers for her.

"And their opponent, from Gainesville, Georgia. Weighing in at 218 pounds, he is the WWE Champion, the Phenomenal…AJ Styles!" Greg Hamilton finished saying as the crowd cheers loudly for AJ.

AJ hands the title over to the referee who raises it high to show it off to the crowd. He then hands it over to the timekeeper before ringing for the bell.

As soon as the bell rang Ruby rushes over right at Sami and AJ right towards Kevin. Ruby and Sami begin exchanging punches before she drives her knee into his gut.

Also, hope you all like how my results for the shows went too. Including seeing Rey Mysterio come back to eliminate Austin Aries. Will we see them go at it? Oh that would be awesome if we did and I am doing better with Aries than WWE did with him…dumbasses.
