Or how many times the competitors can only be eliminated by going over the top rope.

 

And both feet must touch the floor!

 

Wonder how Kofi avoids elimination this year to only be eliminated minutes later

 

So is there ANY chance Angle is in the rumble? ANY?

 

My money is on one of the New Day guys having a trampoline.

 

ANY man with two hands has a fighting chance.

 

CM PUNK

CM PUNK

 

He should get thrown over the top rope right after Kalisto enters the Rumble. That way the trampoline is already in place.

 

Well maybe not ANYBODY.

 

Lesnar should suplex Kalisto out of the ring.

 

i was writing down the rumble list. I don't think we should expect more than 1 'surprise entrant'. there just isn't room.

 

Andy Williams reppin Chris Hero

 

At least we won't be getting JBL's "BUT YA GOTTA GET HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE! YOU CAN KNOCK HIM DOWN ALL YOU WANT BUT YA GOTTA GET HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE!" this year

 

Really like the WWE comic variant I picked up.

 

There's 18 people already in the Rumble, which doesnt include Sami or Rusev from RAW, who basically have to be guarantees. Doesnt include Kane, Crews, Cass, Ellsworth, Mojo, Truth/Golddust, Gallows/Anderson, and the Big Show.

If you assume one person from each tag team mentioned, and the rest, that's 27 people. Assuming Joe and another NXT person get called up, that's your entire Rumble. And one in which we'd see some big hosses (Kane, Cass, Rusev, Gallows) get eliminated very quickly to build other big guys

 

Looking at 2016, here were the jobbers/comedy/there to be eliminated in 5min people

Rusev, Breeze, Axel, Golddust, Truth, Rowan, Henry, Swagger. Big Show was there to job to Strouman in 5. And KO/Sami were basically there to advance their feud.

2017, half that list wont even enter the ring cause the field will be too stacked

 

We still need guys for the Battle Royal, so I think most of those guys go there.

 

I need to know how even a comic book kayfabe wrote Zack Ryder into being ringside for an HBK/Styles match lol

 

The funniest part is that the og art didn't include him at all. lol

 

True. But, unless a tag match gets added for the RAW belt, we're getting Gallows and Anderson in the rumble too to continue that feud.

 

wait there's a battle royal?

 

think I may end up going to the Rumble next weekend. Anyone else going?

 

I'll be there

 

I havent been to a WWE event since the years of Zack Ryder being a name when he was getting over cus of youtube lol.
I went to a live RAW and a Smackdown house show where Kane and Taker still were going at it....... time to get back to it.

Admittedly my "dream shows" to make (since I'm an east coaster) are Lucha Underground and PWG atm, though.
