By: Joe BurgettMany have been speculating about Christian Cage coming to the WWE, and those speculations are looking to be correct. TNA has come out and said he is leaving and the WWE is expecting him to sign soon.
Some fans are thinking that because he will sign soon he will be in the Royal Rumble, and that is true—sort of. See, he will be at the Royal Rumble, but not in it.
Now of course this is a rumored storyline the WWE is thinking about doing, but they want Cage to screw over Jeff Hardy so that Edge will win back the WWE Championship. He will be an eight-time World Champion if it is done.
There has already been a storyline blaming Cage for beating up Hardy in the Boston Hotel, putting him out of the matchup, so it looks as if two things will happen. Of course Cage will screw over Hardy; we know that.
In addition, the WWE will either have Hardy go crazy attacking someone in the Rumble and taking their place, possibly coming out No. 30 and then winning the Rumble, or Hardy will leave that night, come on SmackDown upset, and demand to match with Edge for the Title. But then Vickie would say he has to earn it by facing Cage at No Way Out.
If he wins then he can face Edge for the WWE Title. Of course, this would hinge on who wins the Rumble and who the WWE wants him to face at Wrestlemania.
Many feel that Hardy will not face Cage but one time if any. Therefore, I'd see him out of the Mania match for the WWE Title, and Hardy in it.
As I mentioned, these storylines are rumored and not official. However, it would work if the WWE wanted to do it.
Another rumor was that Cage would return at the Rumble in the Royal Rumble match and win. Still, that would be unlikely considering they want him to be with Edge and on his side for the time being.
Personally, I want to see Cage return and screw over Hardy. I could see Hardy snap and get in the Rumble match, win it, and then take out Cage.
I think the WWE would do a storyline on Cage being the reason why Edge won the title from Hardy, but they would have Hardy out of the WWE Title contention because he is a threat to Edge keeping the Title. To spite them Hardy would win the Rumble, making sure he had to be in title contention. It would work more in my opinion, but we will have to see.
It also keeps Hardy, Edge, and newly acquired Cage in the SmackDown spotlight. I also think this would get SmackDown amazing ratings too.
What do you think? Which angle would you most like to see?
