Blah. I remember the other 40-man Rumble being a lil' longer and a lil' boring and a lil' unnecessary. It gets everybody on the show but unless it's gonna make for a good Rumble match, doesn't matter.

Someone unexpected winning the Rumble has damn near never happened tho'... only ones I can think of is Austin in '97 and Del Rio in '11. And I guess the Bret/Lex double win was unexpected cause you didn't expect two winners... even tho' Lex was pretty obvious at the time.

Who's winning this year pretty much depends on who's gonna be back in time for it... Reigns or Bryan.
What about Vince winning it in 99? I didn't think he had a chance in hell :troll:

When was the last time we had:
1. A rumble winner that actually elevated a wrestler to main event status
2. A rumble winner that wasn't a previous rumble winner
3. A rumble winner that nobody thought would win

Also, the return of @Kevin_Nash as Diesel. He sure milked the reaction he got:mjpls:

Doesn't matter where I go, I get that loud of a pop all the time pal. Bars, airports, vineyards, Dr. James Andrews' office, etc. There was a movement backstage for me to have a last hurrah title run up to Mania where I'd put Hunter over but some of the Caterers (maybe they were wrestlers, but had the physical build of caterers) had a hissy fit over it and cried to Steph and Vince.

If Dave Batista can win the Rumble in an attempt to put over a movie he's in, I think I deserve a shot at winning the Rumble and Main Eventing Mania again, especially since my movie is part of a franchise.

3. A rumble winner that nobody thought would win
1. I'd say 2004 or 2005 or 2006 depending on how you feel about benoit/Rey/batista
2. 2012
3. Did we have taker winning in 2007/Cena in 2008/ or edge in 2010?

As for all 3 at a time, idk when that was.
