The 28th annual “Royal Rumble” pay-per-view will be broadcasting live from the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Jan. 25.

The staff here at WrestlingRumors.net is set to give you their picks/predictions for every match that’s been confirmed for the card.

Bragging rights are on the line as each member of the team believes they have the wrestling know-it-all to pick every bout correctly.

As we enter a new year, the format of the WrestlingRumors.net Staff Picks game will be undergoing a makeover. Here’s a list of the new rules as we head towards the “Royal Rumble” pay-per-view:

  1. Two points will be awarded for each match picked correctly.
  2. An extra point will be rewarded for choosing the correct method of victory (pinfall, submission, disqualification or count-out)
  3. You are only eligible to receive that extra point if you pick the winner of the match first.
  4. Two bonus points will be awarded if you correctly predict a title change.
  5. Bonus points will be rewarded for specialty matches and title victories.
