My money is on Regal winning.
And yes, I am prepared to lose my money.

DAMN IT. I wanted to see Santino eliminate Batista, they should have removed Regal, Tatsu or Ryder.
And x2 for Hart Dynasty, they HAVE to be included.

What the deuce? I was really looking forward to seeing Hurricane.
Guess that's the price you pay for drunk and disorderly conduct.
Marella doesn't surprise me- he would have just been there for comedic fodder. But they did kinda really build him up last week on RAW and the week before with those segments with Swagger. Masters is a waste of time, so is Matt in this Rumble.
Praying to Jericho and Punk for Punk or Jericho to win.

I understand Helms , but why Santino? My guess is because he's a sitcom star now- and it would be beyond obvious he wouldn't be winning the Rumble and going onto a Mania main event. Either that, or they wanna sell his injury Swagger gave him this past Monday. |

Wait, so they removed a guy they've actually given a story to going into the Rumble? Stupid.
Not that Santino was going to win, but why remove him? That's just another continuity error.

Regal has this won for sure.......
Ok, so I don't know why Santino is out, but I do know why Helms is out. I am still hoping that Edge is a surprise entrant and subsequent winner, though my money is on Batista.

What?!? No Santino?!? This sucks! I thought that this year he would get knocked out in .5 seconds. That is, if that's even possible.  |

DAMN IT. I wanted to see Santino eliminate Batista, they should have removed Regal, Tatsu or Ryder. And x2 for Hart Dynasty, they HAVE to be included. Ryder regal and tatsu all deserve a spot over MVP. What has he done except vut mediocre promos and lose to the big show in about a minute and a half. Now there is a waste of a spot. |

Atleast his catchphrase is over outside almighty Wfigs. Fact. Santino should be in over these 3, they're not going to win anyways. And atleast people know who he is. |

I'm disappointed about Hurricane, but I understand. Hopefully this is his only punishment.

Ryder regal and tatsu all deserve a spot over MVP. What has he done except vut mediocre promos and lose to the big show in about a minute and a half. Now there is a waste of a spot. Bro, MVP really does deserve his spot in the rumble. He's been swimming around the midcard for a while- just recently making some huge strides with his promo work against the Miz. It's been probably the most consistently entertaining thing on RAW. I actually hope he makes it to the final four to give him some credibility. That being said, Regal, Ryder and Yoshi all deserve their spots as well. Ten-fold, Regal is one of the better heels the last two years on any brand, his roundtable has been entertaining and his sneaky heelish tactics could make for some entertaining moments. Yoshi is an exciting underdog type performer, and his quick-strike kick finisher, as well as surprising wins recently on RAW and ECW in big 6-man tag matches show that he has the backing of the WWE brass. Ryder is just gold in everything he does as of late, having Rosa ringside maybe to cheer him on could both be an enhancement and a distraction. I look forward to him being overly arrogant and bragadocious- thus getting him eliminated when he's not paying attention or showboating. I love the Zackster entirely, but it's not his time to win a Rumble match yet. A few years into the future, maybe....I really don't see any of these aforementioned guys winning it- but having them all there will make this a far better match than them being excluded. I see no reason for anyone to hate on any four of those men, or Hurricane or Santino. The Rumble needs mid-carders to be eliminated by the big fish, and it needs shocking upsets and surprises to build those guys lower down the food chain so they can work their way up and gain some credibility by getting that Rumble rub. |

Damn. Hurricane and Santino for Masters and Hardy?
That's like trading gold and platinum for crap and more crap.

Hopefully Christian will lose his match and make a big impact in the Rumble.
