I'm in

I'm a bit late, this event is this Saturday. So I'm tagging folks who may be interested/participated in the past (sorry if you appear on this list twice), and will just fill in spots if we don't get 30 entries in time.

Got ya bud

I'm in.

i'll take that #3 spot on both!

Yes

I'm in

Count me in

In. I'm having a combination Rumble / Board Game night with my cousin coming over. Should be fun. Hoping with HHH in charge that this Rumble will be a good one. Hoping Matt Cardona (Zack Ryder) makes an appearance.

Yeah Cardona is someone I half expect to show up for sure, especially since his wife Chelsea Green just signed a new contract apparently.

Also happy birthday bud

In!

Oh I'm definitely in.

In. I'll probably get tossed out early as usual.

I'm in, why not.

Let's see who knocks me out this year.

Alright sure

Ok let’s do it!

Is there still going to be the prediction thread thing too?

Yall are added on in. Damn, I think this is the quickest we've gotten 15 folks tbh.

@BucketofJustice I usually just do that for Mania these days, and the random AEW PPV, but I'm totally down to do it for the Rumble too, what the heck. Maybe I'll throw it up tonight or sometime this week.

I'm in...thanks!!

I'm in

All are added in.

Just for the fun of it, this is the list of past winners. I'm pretty sure there are like 2-3 years that wouldn't show up when I searched "Royal Rumble" (recent or archive)... don't know if that's just site maintenance or if 2018 was truly the first year I started posting the Rumble game. Could've sworn this started way earlier... but oh well. Here are the winners I could find:

2018 Women’s – shadyfozzie (via #25 Asuka)
2018 Men’s – NatGasHole (via #14 Shinsuke Nakamura)
Greatest Royal Rumble 2018 – Sam (via #41 Braun Strowman)
2019 Women’s – SirConnery (via #28 Becky Lynch)
2019 Men’s – bogo (via #10 Seth Rollins)
2020 Women’s – Guess I didn’t do the 2020 Women’s, whoops
2020 Men’s – Sid_Ceaser (via #16 Drew McIntyre)
2021 Women’s – theJaw (via #3 Bianca Belair)
2021 Men’s – Gamerslyf (via #1 Edge)
2022 Women’s – Frank (via #28 Ronda Rousey)
2022 Men’s – sa330206 (via #30 Brock Lesnar)

I think it's something Bill changed years ago where posts older than 5 years get deleted for good (just the general forums, not subscriber forums).

I’m in

Why not... I'll jump In

What I like to hear @classicrock909 Hope all is well bud

I'M IN!!! 👊👊👊💥💥💥

10 MORE SPOTS, LET’S FILL IT UP!

I was tagged, so why not?

Sign me up!

I never really followed wrestling, but I've learned to appreciate the skill and artistry used when they pull of their moves.

I'm in.

Randomized the entries and filled the remaining spots with randoms. ENJOY THE RUMBLE YALL!

When is this abortion of entertainment happening?

In 10 minutes on Peacock

Ha! 4 is my favorite number!

Anyone else think Gunther would be a great winner?

shadyfozzie wrote:


No complaints from me. I wish they had gone a little further with that little teaser they were doing with him and Brock.

I think Imperium vs. Bloodline would be awesome

wow.. that spot was insane

Technically Rey never got eliminated.

AND Cody exited the ring by leaping over the top rope haha

Booker T let me down. Just had to do the stupid spinaroonie.

Meltzer says Gunther set the record for being in a traditional Rumble match the longest

So did Michael Cole.

Well I try not to listen to anything he says. If there was an option to mute Cole and Corey and only hear McAfee I'd be all for it.

Pretty damn entertaining show overall. I mean, we all knew Cody was gonna win, kinda wish they didn't give him the #30 spot though because that just made it even more obvious.

And that spot with Kevin Owens' head hitting the steps...that's gonna leave a mark.

Men's and Women's rumble winners were pretty predictable.. but the matches were good.. Really wanted Gunther to win.. Would have loved to see Imperium vs. Bloodline..
Sami turn was great, but Jimmy Uso leaving was a shock.. Wonder if they will drop titles and split up...
Lights out match and Woman's championship were meh..

I had no expectations for the lights out match. Haven't been keeping up with all of Raw and SmackDown (the past couple months I haven't been able to sit through a full episode of either show) so I didn't even know a lights out match was booked until this past RAW XXX on Monday.

Cody winning was the good, and right, decision. It was kind of weird to think that they wanted us to root for #30 over #1, but it is what it is. Gunther is amazing.

Rhea winning was also the right decision. We also knew it was happening.

This show was very predictable, but very good. Sami vs. Roman at Elimination Chamber will be epic, partly because Sami is from Montreal. Mostly because the storytelling has been masterful.

Rhodes winning was the right choice. Rhea winning makes sense. “Dark Asuka” fudging rules so hard and should win every title ever. Literally anything Uncle Howdy related was fudging AWWWWFUL. Bliss/Bianca was bad. The Bloodline story continues to be the absolute best thing WWE has produced in literal years, and tonight was the “Red Wedding” scene of that particular storyline.

Overall very satisfied with the show… the Wyatt stuff just needs to stop.

Also definitely give me 18 Rhodes vs Gunther matches pls

Also Prime and Justin won. Two guys who I randomly chose to fill out the entries. Of course.

I’m choosing to switch the Men/Women lists. Congrats to @Sun & @Archer for actually entering and for their victories!
