- We noted before that WWE officials had discussions about CM Punk retaining the WWE Title against The Rock at the Royal Rumble and then have Rock win it at Elimination Chamber. F4Wonline.com notes that since Rock swore to God on RAW that he would beat Punk at the Rumble, the idea of Punk retaining was likely nixed. It's not a hard and fast rule but usually if a babyface guarantees or swears to God that he will win, he wins.

- As noted earlier, WWE has signed former Oregon State heavyweight Clayton Jack to a three-year developmental deal. Clayton will begin training at NXT on January 24th. He told OUBeavers.com that he hopes to work as a heel:

"I wouldn't mind playing the heel, which is the bad guy. When you first start out you are always kind of the heel and then you work your way into being a face, which is a good guy. As much as I want to say it's based on my personality, it's also based on how well I can act."[/quote]

It's not a rule because there are more exceptions than examples of the rule. A babyface is statistically more likely to lose if he guarantees a win. This even applies to "seldom-lose" Cena.

I was getting ready to defend the Rock. A good title challenger should be promising a victory. But by "breaking the fourth wall" and stating that the plan for Punk to retain has been nixed was a bad move.

If The Rock wins at the RR, it will merely be kept until Wrestlemania where he will loose the belt to Cena. Punk should retain, while Rock should fuck off back to Hollywood and let someone like Ziggler take the spotlight. Rock does not deserve all this special treatment. He does not need the belt any more.

There's a huge difference between guaranteeing and swearing to god...

Swearing to god, for people who believe in him, is obviously a way stronger form of guaranteeing. So yeah, maybe what they say is not completely wrong.
