I love the Royal Rumble. Best event of the year! if WWE just added these Rules & Regs it would be Perfect!1. Explain the qualification Process. This year a few guys tweeted out that they are entering, is that all it takes? How did Drew Carey get in? My solution is to just say it's an invitation only event given my the McMahon's. Therefore surprises entrants can be maintained.
2. What ever the time domain is between entrants (1min, 90sec, 2min) needs to be consistent across the board. Last few years it has gotten way out of hand with time between entrants ranging from 30sec -3min in the same rumble match! My solution is to have a running clock not just a 10 sec. clock.
3. Superstars have 10 seconds to enter after the clock buzzes for their spot.
4. Superstar who exit the ring other than being eliminated have 10 seconds to reenter (lawler rule).
5. Superstars can maintain legality in the match when one foot hits the floor only if they are in contact with the top rope. (kofi rule) I do enjoy the Kofi spots but they are played out. If opposite feet hit one after the other they are eliminated.
6. No valet's or managers allowed at ringside.
7. Superstars can not be eliminated by a non legal entity (hulk/sid rule). Superstar must reenter within 10 sec of freedom from the nonlegal entity.
8. 1 entance per superstar (mick foley rule) Who would have entered in those spots in '98 if Cactus lasted longer?
9. Show a lot of Refs and Security/lumberjacks to insure rules are followed and time limits are maintained. Have a ref escort the entrant with a 10 sec count, etc.
10. It needs to be very clear that violations of rules will lead to large fines and possible termination from the WWE.
What do you think? "Dude just enjoy the show" I will and always have just trying to make it better.
So many problems in the sense that WWE would find ways to show how the rule is to be applied by making these eliminations in the Royal Rumble. For example, WWE would
A) Have one wrestler eliminated by ducking out for more than 10 seconds (Rule 4)
B) Having one wrestler be eliminated by failing to get tot he ring in time because of a trip and fall (Rule 3)
C) Make a spectacle of a manager getting ejected at ringside. Probably towards the very end when its down to final 5 wrestlers. Example: Apollo Crew is about to be eliminated, Titus runs down. Refs all distracted, Crews gets thrown out, runs in and eliminates someone else just as the ref sees it. (Rule 6)
D) Wrestler gets pulled out of ring by non-legal entity and beat down. 10 second count. eliminated (Rule 7)
It would just be a clustermess if this was all added.
That said, I agree. If WWE could just state the rules without having to weavethem into a storyline, great.
Thanks for responding. I don’t want these rules broken, just explained during the match. I just imagine President Tunney speaking these rules to the camera before hand and the announcers reiterating throughout the match. I just hate that year in and year out I’m yelling at the TV “that’s stupid” “that’s not fair” etc.
You can disagree with these rules because it’s cool to be a heel on the boards and draw heat from the op but the fact is if WWE posted these on their website or the McMahon’s gave a camera address of these rules everyone would be stocked! Saying things like “this year will be legit!”
