What is you biggest pet peeve during the Royal Rumble? This is the best event of the year but certain things really grind my gears!

So based on this poll, are you saying the rules need to change?

Come on man, do you really hate the Rumble THAT much?
It's supposed to be fun.
For most wrestling fans it's their favourite time of the year. To completely revamp the whole thing with strict rules and admin you're putting the whole thing at risk of being even worse.
It's fine as it is.

Batista and Cena arent co-winners. Baristas name is down in the history books as the sole winner while both Bret and Lex are down as the winners in ‘94

Not listed: The announcers losing their minds when someone over 300 lbs enters the rumble. "tHeY'rE sO BiG, tHeY hAvE tO bE tHe fAvOriTe To WiN. wHaT WiLL iT tAkE tO eLiMiNaTe tHeM?!?". That person then gets eliminated when the smaller guys work together.

I voted for a thing that has nothing to do with the rumble at all, because it's a spot that drives me nuts. Retrying botched spots. Like, just move on.
Beyond that I have no desire to contribute to this lol.

I voted #1 Entrant Winning and Eliminations by Non-Entrants, but you missed several:
-Midget wrestlers being participants and throwing out 230+ lb wrestlers
-Spots wasted on surprise/comedy entrants nobody cares about (Kharma, Michael Cole, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Road Dogg, Mick Foley, Jerry the King in 2012)
-Wrestlers eliminated or trying to in under :02 to set a new record
-Brock Lesnar coming in at #1 and throwing out the next 14 guys himself

I only hate 2 things, neither I see mentioned (then again I didnt read everything either) 1) Knowing who #1, #2 and/or #30 is ahead of time. Leave the suspense for the Rumble stop announcing it 2) Cole when an NXT superstar comes out and he goes "This is ____ from NXT" like we dont know who the  the person is. |

Leave the suspense for the Rumble stop announcing it 2) Cole when an NXT superstar comes out and he goes "This is ____ from NXT" like we dont know who the the person is. You’re #1 is annoying. Like why was Brock not only allowed to declare for the Rumble but he was also allowed to declare his entry spot as #1. Are certain spots declarable or can certain stars declar their numbers. You’re #2 was my last option in the poll. As soon as the Camera shows the new entrant Cole immediately spouts off 3 scripted lines about the star without hesitation, it sounds just like the analysts at an NFL draft when someone gets selected, all of a sudden they have tons to say and a video package ready. Back in the day Gorilla would just be like “ohhh boy” whether it was Randy Savage or Terry Taylor. Monsoon made you feel like the entrant was there to prove themselves as all costs, Cole makes it all sound so scripted and rehearsed. |

Because an elimination can happen at anytime the camera should never come off the wide angle ring shot. The new entrant should be in a small box in the corner of the screen like the early 90’s.

Monsoon made you feel like the entrant was there to prove themselves as all costs, Cole makes it all sound so scripted and rehearsed. I mean, who in their right mind would want to be #1? I feel like if someone in the rumble said "Hey I wanna be the first entrant" the other 29 are pretty much gonna be like "sure bud have at it... Dumbass". Sayin I wanna be #30 is a different story, no one's willingly giving you that. #2 is again, far from exclusive to the rumble. Michael Cole makes everything he says sound like that. There was a hilarious thread on reddit at one point about wrestlers and moments that Michael Cole could have ruined. My favourite was the Big Bossman's entrance gaining "It's Boss Time". |

Cast votes for rerunning botched spots and the played false finish bit when someone comes back in after an extended time outside. Personally would have included stars coming in and spamming their signatures/finishers.

I will flip it 1) i love about the Royal Rumble when the ring fills up, then 1 superstar goes on an elim Frenzy sometimes this is 2 superstars to face off. 2) The quick elimination love predicting who it will be 3) Nowadays a surprise winner, back in the day an Austin win  4) The 30 second pop a Superstar gets when he gets in the ring and shows what he has 5) The nostalgic entry, Loved it when the King was commentating and got up and went in the ring. 6) The Unexpected Mick Foley coming in as different entrants for his different characters |

I heard if the worst happened JR and and Linda McMahon were willing to step up to the plate. |
