WWE Survivor Series: I'm not too sold on the diary up to this point, but of course we're only in the backstory stage. Survivor Series seemed to be smooth and tried to be as realistic as possible, but it didn't flow as good as it seemed. I did like the five-on-five SmackDown elimination match, and how it was almost a decapitated version of the SmackDown team from Bragging Rights [minus Edge], and I also enjoy the fact you kept it at one RAW brand and one SmackDown brand Survivor Series match. Dolph Ziggler and Daniel Bryan having a fourth match after Bragging Rights, RAW and SmackDown is unnecessary, sure it would be good and Ziggler with a win is grand, but I really didn't quite dig it needing another match. Sheamus beating John Morrison was good, but the crowd I predict would have eaten up. The team opposing The Nexus was poor, with R-Truth as the only credible performer on the team [and how the Hart Dynasty have managed to remain a team to this point after having so many breakups is a bit unbelievable]. Layla beating Natalya was nice, though: they had a good match on October 24th. Kane retaining the World Heavyweight Championship was smooth, but unpredictable bout and Edge could have won for my liking, but Kane winning shows you have ideas. Wade Barrett firing John Cena was a bit awkward to end the pay-per-view in my mind, but great cliffhanger, also the fact that Wade won the WWE Championship from Randy Orton. A mixbag show, this is the problem with future-based diaries [even with two months difference between now and the future], wasn't so sure of some booking ideas, though most things aren't fully clear with list results.
WWE TLC: Tables Ladders and Chairs: Kofi Kingston and Jack Swagger's feud intrigued me, strange how it suddenly spanned a tables match, though. Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater should be having a nice reign, hoping to see Nexus go interpromotional nearer WrestleMania XXVII. The Hart Dynasty STILL together? Hmm, the buildup to this WWE Tag Team Championship ladder match would have been great to read. Not too sure what to think of this battle royal to determine an entry number decision for the Royal Rumble, guess Sheamus' number will be revealed on RAW. I feel that Sheamus should have been in a bigger match, being that this time last year he won the WWE Championship at this show. Ted Dibiase beating Goldust...filler. I like the feud, but the match had no purpose whatsoever being on Bragging Rights, nor here. Kaval being cheated out of the WWE Intercontinental Championship sounds good, but also like some sort of repeat from Ziggler and Kofi Kingston's feud. Better yet, Drew McIntyre and John Morrison's feud. Repetitive storyline, I hope not. Not so sure what to think of TWO Tables, Ladders and Chairs fatal four-way matches for the WWE and World Heavyweight Championship. It's different, but it makes things look clustered. More than Fatal 4 Way, this is just with TLC. Like how Cena had a chance to be resigned and to win the WWE title back, glad he didn't win though. A good show overall, better than Survivor Series I figure, but these two shows didn't seem to be too grand, in fact some booking looked to be existent just because you wanted to scram in a few more superstars onto a pay-per-view card. But hey, this is the backstory. Knowing you two and your booking ability, you should turn this around with an actual show posted. I am still looking forward to what storylines are going on.

First off, I like the champions key on the roster page, really unique idea. Now, onto the two PPV's -
Survivor Series: A solid bit of booking for the Main Event, Barrett winning the title was essential to his development to be honest, and the aftermath sets up for the possible finish to the Cena vs Barrett feud at TLC. I would say I'm surprised to see Kane go over Edge, but we all saw the graphic you posted a couple of days back in the resource thread. I like that Kane is getting this long reign, he deserves it really after plugging away all these years. I would've liked to see Layla lose to Natalya, since I feel like LayCool's reign has ran its course, they've been on top for around two years now, and I think its time for a change, and a fresh first time champ in Natalya would've been a great way to bring in that change. I really don't like that RAW Team that you've put together, it just doesn't seem right. Tatsu just wouldn't be on PPV in my opinion, and the Hart Dynasty are in the middle of a break up, you wouldn't really want them to be on a team tbh. That'd leave Henry and Truth to be the credible part of the team, and against a cohesive unit like the Nexus, that isn't enough. Sheamus going over John Morrison is good for him, however, I think Morrison could have gone over here, and that would have helped Morrison move up the card after several months of being stuck in a midcard rut. Another Ziggler/Bryan match is awesome, and I'm glad to see Ziggler go over, as he needed a win against Bryan really to remain credible. Finally, I love the Smackdown Survivor Series match, would have been an excellent way to open the PPV. Glad to see the face team go over, as I prefer who is on that team. The booking for this PPV was quite mixed, good in some places, and bad in others. Hoping that the booking is a bit better at TLC.
WWE TLC: I like the idea of a Fatal Four Way TLC match, however, I am confused as to why Miz is in there, when he could have easily cashed in his Money in the Bank after this match if say, Sheamus, was in his place. I'm glad Barrett has retained, however, I hope to see him drop the belt at the Rumble to someone better suited to entering Wrestlemania with the WWE's greatest prize. Again, I'm confused about a challenger, as considering the situation Kaval is in at present, why has he jumped in two months to challenging SmackDown!'s mid card champion? And why is Ziggler only able to retain the Championship via DQ, after beating Daniel Bryan in (presumably) clean manner just a month earlier? Glad to see that the Ted vs Goldust feud finally comes to a head with Ted taking back the belt, really think this feud could be good for getting him over, and the rub from a popular face like Goldust is just what he needs. I love how there's two Fatal Four Way TLC matches, I liked that idea at Survivor Series 2009 with the World Champion's being in the same situation when defending thier gold. Alberto getting a shot is great, and the fact he's in there with Rey makes me wonder whether things are done between them or not? Very intriguing situation indeed. I like the idea of a 15 man battle royal won by Sheamus, feels like a throwback to how he got his first big break around this time. I feel like Sheamus will choose #1 in a cocky heel way, or more than likely, the #30 to have an easy route to the win. Not a fan of the Hart Dynasty still being together at this time, and challenging for the Tag Team Championships at that. Not good booking there in my opinion. Finally, a bit of a random feud on the card with Swagger and Kofi, which I feel is just there to have a tables match on the card, however, I like that Kofi and Swagger are getting some PPV time, and opening the PPV at that. Would really bring the crowd into the event, so good job there. This PPV is booked well, and would have been an entertaining show, however, I am left a bit baffled as to how certain superstars are in the situation they are in with the little background we have been given really. The Main Event booking looks promising, but the midcard needs work in my opinion. Good luck, and I look forward to seeing this develop! (:

In terms of the quick results, they are just to tie up a few things before we started the diary at Royal Rumble. Some patience and imagination is needed.

30 January 2011 | Boston, MA
After the standard WWE opening, a moving video tribute to the past Royal Rumble winners with the song 'Closer' by Kings of Leon is played. It documents every single Royal Rumble winner, from Ric Flair to Edge (strangely enough, nobody won the 2004 Royal Rumble..). A haunting voice over reminds us how important and monumental the match is, leading us on the road to the 27th WrestleMania.
Tonight's matches are hyped with a video to the Royal Rumble's official theme song, 'Uprising' by Muse. It shows the build-up to both World Title matches and the Royal Rumble match itself, with several superstars telling the WWE Universe what the opportunity to headline WrestleMania means to them.
After the opening videos, a pyrotechnics display explodes on the impressive looking stage. Michael Cole and Jerry 'The King' Lawler welcome us to the broadcast before crossing over to Todd Grisham and Matt Striker, who lead us into our first match of the night.
Natalya defeats LayCool to win the Divas Championship. The crowd was absolutely red hot for the daughter of legendary Hart Foundation member Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart. The match started off with LayCool taking control in a 2-on-1 attack, before Natalya used her power and got back in the match. The end was near after LayCool regained control and hit an explosive Faith Breaker on Natalya. The match took a surprising turn after McCool went for the pin, only to have Layla pull her off Natalya. LayCool bicker about who should pin Natalya before McCool hits Layla with a vicious kick, leaving her laid out in the middle of the ring! Michelle abandons Layla and walks up the ramp, allowing Natalya to regain her composure and pin Layla to win the Divas Championship in a shocking turn.
Sheamus is interviewed by Josh Matthews. Sheamus hypes himself up and talks of main eventing WrestleMania. Matthews asks why Sheamus chose the #27 spot in the Rumble match. Sheamus says he is a man who believes in luck, and #27 has proved itself to be lucky in the past.
Backstage, Cody Rhodes is with Teddy Long and the Royal Rumble tumbler that determines each superstar's number of entry into the Royal Rumble match. Rhodes pulls out his number and has a puzzled look on his face. Rey Mysterio also recieves his number, and gives a fairly mixed reaction. As he goes to leave the office, John Cena walks in. They brush shoulders and stare each other down for a few seconds before parting ways. Cena comes to Teddy Long asking a favor. The favor being that Paul Bearer is banished from ringside tonight. Long says he can't do that, but he trusts that Cena can overcome Bearer.
Daniel Bryan defeats Ted DiBiase (with Maryse) to retain the United States Championship. Bryan makes his Royal Rumble debut in style. DiBiase has more experience on the WWE stage but judging by tonight, you wouldn't agree. Bryan frustrates the son of the Million Dollar Man, evading and countering at every opportunity. DiBiase even tried to leave. In the end Maryse, clearly embarrassed by DiBiase's performance, left her man in the ring. DiBiase called out to her, telling her to come back. However, turning round, Bryan almost kicked his head off, and that was it for DiBiase. Daniel Bryan is successful tonight.
A promotional video hypes tomorrow night's RAW, where the first Hall of Fame Class of 2011 Inductee is named live!
Dolph Ziggler (with Vickie Guerrero) defeats Kaval to retain the Intercontinental Championship. Kaval certainly impressed in his Royal Rumble PPV debut, as he was in an epic battle with Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler. Kaval's high octane offense was put on hold as he just couldn't overcome Vickie Guerrero's outside influence. Vickie got involved as she trips Kaval up as he goes to springboard off the ropes, allowing Dolph to hit the ZigZag and pick up a hard fought victory to retain his coveted Title.
Backstage, Jack Swagger and Santino Marella both attempt to draw their Rumble entry numbers at the same time, leading to a scuffle when they draw the same ball! Swagger throws Santino into the tumbler. Theodore Long orders Swagger to hand Santino his ball and draw a new one. Reluctantly, he does. However, he leaves the room with a smile on his face.
Wade Barrett (with David Otunga) defeated Randy Orton to retain the WWE Championship. The tension between Otunga and Barrett was clear. Barrett barred Otunga from entering the Royal Rumble, saying that only the WWE Tag Team Champions Slater and Gabriel would be fit to get the job done. However, it was Otunga that ended up keeping the title in the hands in Wade Barrett. It was a decent match, very back and forth. Orton scored many near falls which kept the fans on the edge of their seats. Barrett reveresed an RKO by shoving Orton into the official. With the referee and both men down following a double clothesline, Otunga stood in the middle of the ring, WWE Title in hand, toying with the options he faced. Smack Orton in the head with the belt, or Barrett. In the end, he 'did the right thing' and took out Orton. Barrett was only too happy to pick up the scraps, and a groggy referee counted the fall. Barrett raised Otunga's arm and praised him as the head to the back.
A hype video is played, documenting the feud between John Cena and Kane from after Cena was hired by SmackDown last month. Their match for the World Heavyweight Championship is next!
John Cena defeats Kane (with Paul Bearer) to win the World Heavyweight Championship. In a match that the crowd was surprisingly hot for, the veteran Kane took on John Cena, who has been running wild since he was traded to the blue brand. The match was fairly slow paced, with plenty of power moves. The end came when Paul Bearer climbed onto the apron to distract the referee, but it backfired as Cena pushed Kane into Bearer, sending him off the apron. This allowed Cena to hit the Attitude Adjustment on the Big Red Monster and win yet another World Heavyweight Championship.
A video highlights various memorable Royal Rumble moments, winners and events. Justin Roberts is seen in the ring when we return, where he goes over the rules of the Rumble match.
HIGHLIGHT THE TEXT A SECTION AT A TIME TO READ THE ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH, OR CLICK ON THE LINKS TO SEE THE ENTRANT GRAPHICS
ENTRANT #1
Cody Rhodes is the #1 entrant and he doesn't look too happy about it. Well, you can imagine his face when #2 is introduced.
ENTRANT #2
Triple H makes his grand return to the WWE! He and Rhodes start off the Rumble, with The Game dominant. He has months and months of frustration to unload on Rhodes. #3 is buzzed in..
ENTRANT #3
It's Zack Ryder, who slowly makes his way to the ring, playing to the fans. They hate him. He comes to the ring, and Triple H spots him straight away. Ryder is beaten down severely, and gets a Pedigree! Soon after, he's sent packing! ZACK RYDER IS ELIMINATED BY TRIPLE H. The buzzer goes. Here comes #4.
ENTRANT #4
William Regal comes out, making only his 3rd Rumble appearance. Regal goes straight after Triple H, delivering some stiff blows. But The Game hits as hard as he gets and Regal is sent flying. Rhodes nails Triple H with a low blow and a double team attack ensues. Triple H is attacked badly until #5 arrives.
ENTRANT #5
It's Chris Masters. Masters sets about knocking Rhodes and Regal down with a hard double clothesline. Masters controls the bout as Triple H recovers. Regal and Rhodes make a comeback once more and have Masters trying to fight his way out of elimination. The buzzer goes..

ENTRANT #8
It's Smackdown Superstar Tyler Reks. He comes to the ring and brawls with Smith. McIntyre and Rhodes try to eliminate Triple H but they just can't. Triple H is too determined to be eliminated so early on. Regal is groggy and takes some time to heal, before going after Triple H too. He's smart, and knows not to go after the fresher David Hart Smith and risk elimination. The crowd count down the clock, and we get another man in the ring.
ENTRANT #9
It's Luke Gallows. The former Straight Edge Disciple hits the ring and immediately tries to throw Cody Rhodes out. Rhodes goes over the top but clings to the bottom rope. Gallows tries pushing him out until McIntyre makes the save. McIntyre tries to lift Gallows out in the corner. The buzzer goes and the next guy makes his way down. Meanwhile, on the other side of the ring, William Regal is hit hard with a clothesline by David Hart Smith! WILLIAM REGAL IS ELIMINATED BY DAVID HART SMITH.
ENTRANT #10
#10 is Santino Marella. Having the record for the shortest time in a Rumble match, Santino doesn't stand a good chance here. He hits the ring and manages to fend off Tyler Reks. Gallows comes over and joins in on the attack on Reks. Triple H is still down, being stomped at by Rhodes and McIntyre. Gallows is lifted up and over the top rope. LUKE GALLOWS IS ELIMINATED BY TYLER REKS.
ENTRANT #11
The crowd pops huge as #11 is Rey Mysterio! He hits the ring and goes after Rhodes and McIntyre. Mysterio sets up a simultaneous 619, with Rhodes and McIntyre kneeling together on the second rope. Mysterio hits the 619 and looks to follow it up with the West Coast Pop. He goes for McIntyre, who catches Mysterio and reverses the move. However, this too is countered, and Mysterio hits a hurricanrana that sends McIntyre over the top rope. McIntyre hangs on barely. The buzzer sounds..
ENTRANT #12
We have our first Nexus entrant in Heath Slater. The WWE Tag Team Champion slowly makes his way to the ring, cautious of those already participating. He slides in, and the action stops. After everything the Nexus has done over the past few months, Slater is now a prime target. He tries to reason with the rest of the superstars, but to no avail. He is hoisted up and tossed out by the competing superstars. HEATH SLATER IS ELIMINATED BY EVERYONE. The action restarts with Triple H trying to throw out McIntyre. Rhodes and Mysterio battle, and Smith is being choked in the corner by Reks. The buzzer sounds..
ENTRANT #13
'Unlucky' #13 is Royal Rumble debutant Alberto Del Rio. He too slowly makes his way to the ring, taking the time to work up the crowd. He is immediately met by Rey Mysterio. They brawl and topple through the second rope. Neither are eliminated. Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre begin feeling the wrath of Triple H, who fires out of the corner with right hands. Triple H drives his knee into the face of McIntyre. Meanwhile, David Hart Smith has Tyler Reks almost out. Santino Marella is recovering in the corner.
ENTRANT #14
Chavo Guerrero is next. He hits the ring and goes after David Hart Smith, trying to lift him out. However, he and Reks cannot get the job done. Triple H clotheslines Drew McIntyre over the top rope, but again the Scotsman saves himself. Rhodes hits Triple H with a DDT. Smith lifts Chavo up onto the top turnbuckle and tries to get him out, but he's hooked onto the ropes. Here come's #15..
ENTRANT #15
It's Bret Hart! Bret 'Hitman' Hart has entered the Royal Rumble. Hart won the Rumble in 1994 so he knows what it takes to get the job done. He unloads punches to Reks, Rhodes and McIntyre before trying to help Smith to eliminated Chavo. Outside the ring, Del Rio is trying to injure Mysterio's arm by smashing it into the ring-post. Reks has Santino up on the ropes, and tosses him out. SANTINO MARELLA IS ELIMINATED BY TYLER REKS. Just as Santino's feet hit the floor, the buzzer sounds and we're joined by..
ENTRANT #16
It's Ted DiBiase's turn to enter. We understand that this was supposed to be Ezekiel Jackson, who could not be here tonight. DiBiase joins in on the attack on Triple H. Alberto Del Rio leaves a beaten Rey Mysterio on the outside and rejoins the superstars in the ring. Chavo fends off Smith and Hart. Tyler Reks turns his attentions to Smith. We hear the buzzer.
ENTRANT #17
R-Truth is next. He has a great start and brawls with Drew McIntyre. Triple H again fights back against Cody Rhodes. He turns his attention to Alberto Del Rio. The match continues with each man occupied as #18 makes his entrance..
ENTRANT #18
The biggest man in the match, The Great Khali, enters to a nice pop. Everyone turns their attention to Khali as he enters the ring. He fights them off with devastating chops. Meanwhile, Bret Hart nails Chavo Guerrero with a clothesline. CHAVO GUERRERO IS ELIMINATED BY BRET HART. Alberto Del Rio sneaks up behind Hart and lifts him out! BRET HART IS ELIMINATED BY ALBERTO DEL RIO. The crowd boo intensely, but Del Rio smiles and mocks them.
ENTRANT #19
It's The Miz. The former United States Champion casually makes his way to the ring. Miz targets the injured Rey Mysterio. Triple H drives DiBiase and Rhodes to the mat and is set upon by Tyler Reks. Big mistake. Reks charges and is tossed up and over by Triple H. TYLER REKS IS ELIMINATED BY TRIPLE H. Smith is trying to lift Khali out along with R-Truth.
ENTRANT #20
MVP enters at #20. He starts off with Tyler Reks, grabbing him by the leg and trying to throw him out. By this point, Mysterio has entered the ring, but is easy prey for Drew McIntyre. David Hart Smith attacks Alberto Del Rio from behind. Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes team up against Triple H, who is battling to survive. Khali is proving a tough challenge for R-Truth to handle. Next entry..
ENTRANT #21
Tyson Kidd is out next. He joins his partner in trying to eliminate Khali. You can see that there is some tension between Kidd and Smith. Miz almost eliminates Mysterio, but he hangs on with one good arm. Drew McIntyre has R-Truth balanced on the top rope. Triple H battles with Ted DiBiase with Cody Rhodes still down. Rhodes and Triple H were the first two entries and have got to be worn down. We hear the buzzer, alerting us to imminent arrival of the next entrant..
ENTRANT #22
Kofi Kingston comes out to the ring. He immediately clashes with The Miz. Elsewhere, Cody Rhodes tries to eliminate Rey Mysterio, who is still suffering from an arm injury. Rhodes lifts him and throws him over the top rope, but Mysterio holds on, and drags Rhodes out with him. CODY RHODES IS ELIMINATED BY REY MYSTERIO. Mysterio holds on and rolls back into the ring having eliminated the #1 entrant.
ENTRANT #23
Here comes #23. It's the other half of the WWE Tag Team Champions and representative of the Nexus, Justin Gabriel. After seeing how Heath Slater was eliminated earlier, Gabriel is hesitant to get into the ring, so he waits outside for a while. Ted DiBiase is very nearly eliminated by Triple H, but he saves himself and jams his thumb into the eyes of The Game. Khali tries to throw MVP out. The action continues..
ENTRANT #24
#24 is Edge, last year's Royal Rumble winner. He nails Gabriel with a Spear on the outside of the ring before he enters. He trades right hands with Kofi Kingston.

The Miz sneaks up behind, and throws out The Hart Dynasty, similar to how Bret Hart was eliminated earlier. THE HART DYNASTY ARE ELIMINATED BY THE MIZ. Kidd and Smith argue on the outside, resulting in Kidd slapping Smith! The buzzer sounds.
ENTRANT #25
The 25th entrant comes out. It's Mark Henry. He bypasses Justin Gabriel on the outside of the ring. He slides just as an elimination occurs. DREW MCINTYRE IS ELIMINATED BY TRIPLE H. R-Truth and The Miz continue to battle. With Miz on the ropes, R-Truth attempts a heel kick, but it's avoided, and R-Truth goes toppling out of the ring with a little help from Miz. R-TRUTH IS ELIMINATED BY THE MIZ.
ENTRANT #26
Yoshi Tatsu makes his way out. The Miz is now targeting Rey Mysterio. He doesn't take Mysterio seriously due to the amount of time he's been in the ring, but Mysterio is not out yet. Mysterio reverses a powerslam and pulls The Miz out to the floor with a hurricanrana. The crowd pops big for this one. THE MIZ IS ELIMINATED BY REY MYSTERIO. The clock counts down to #27, and we all know who this one is..
ENTRANT #27
Sheamus marches towards the ring, focused and ready to earn a shot at the WWE Championship at WrestleMania. He immediately meets Triple H, the man who he nearly retired. The crowd go crazy as they trade blows, with Triple H coming out on top. Sheamus is on the ropes, but dodges a clothesline attempt, almost eliminating the King of Kings.

ENTRANT #28
CM Punk enters the match, returning from a 3 month injury spell. Rey Mysterio and Ted DiBiase are still hanging on. Edge is trying to tip Mark Henry out, a difficult task considering he's 400lbs. Justin Gabriel is still out on the outside of the ring, recovering from the Spear that Edge delivered to him. The focus is still on Triple H and Sheamus brawling in the center of the ring. The buzzer sounds for #29..
ENTRANT #29
Big Show comes out, now the largest man in the match and holding a clear advantage. Could this be his year? As he makes his way down CM Punk launches Yoshi Tatsu out and over. YOSHI TATSU IS ELIMINATED BY CM PUNK. Big Show grabs Justin Gabriel on the outside, lifts him above his head and launches him over the top rope INTO the ring! He is immediately clotheslined back out by Ted DiBiase. JUSTIN GABRIEL IS ELIMINATED BY TED DIBIASE. The crowd explodes at his elimination. No more Nexus in the Rumble. Big Show enters and starts swatting away the superstars charging at him, sensing the threat he poses. He pushes Mark Henry backwards and eliminates him. MARK HENRY IS ELIMINATED BY BIG SHOW. Ted DiBiase suffers the same fate, landing on top of Henry! TED DIBIASE IS ELIMINATED BY BIG SHOW. There goes the buzzer, #30. And there's only one man it can be...
ENTRANT #30
Jack Swagger does his usual entrance, his cocky persona riling up the fans. He enters and goes to work on Rey Mysterio, taking the opportunity to eliminate the injured guy. Edge nails Sheamus with a Spear, but is targeted by Triple H. He tries to Spear Triple H in the corner, but he dodges it and clotheslines Edge out of the ring. Edge lands on the apron, and turns into the knee of The Game. Edge is gone! EDGE IS ELIMINATED BY TRIPLE H. On the other side of the ring, Swagger tries to powerbomb Mysterio out of the ring. Mysterio tries to reverse it, and almost does, but Swagger pulls Mysterio back into position and drops him to the floor. #11 is out and done. REY MYSTERIO IS ELIMINATED BY JACK SWAGGER. Punk, Triple H, Sheamus and Swagger turn their attention to Big Show, and all set about eliminating him. Again he swats them all away. Punk manages to get in a kick to the jaw, rocking the Big Show's foundations. Punk gets underneath him and lifts him onto his shoulders, barely getting over the top. Sheamus hits another Brogue Kick and knocks Big Show off the apron. BIG SHOW IS ELIMINATED BY SHEAMUS. We're down to the final four - Sheamus, CM Punk, Jack Swagger and the #2 entrant Triple H. They take a corner each, and target an opponent. Sheamus and Triple H naturally go for each other, with Sheamus taking advantage. Punk avoids Swagger and begins kicking away at him. After a few minutes have passed, with all four men worn down further, things start to get interesting. CM Punk hits the GTS on Swagger, who topples backwards onto the ropes. Punk clotheslines him out, taking us down to three. JACK SWAGGER IS ELIMINATED BY CM PUNK. Punk goes to one knee, taking the time to rest while Sheamus and Triple H battle. Triple H is in trouble. Sheamus has him up for the High Cross, and he's aiming over the top rope. He runs towards the ropes, but Triple H drops behind him and clotheslines a shocked Sheamus out of the ring! SHEAMUS IS ELIMINATED BY TRIPLE H. However, almost immediately, Punk runs up behind Triple H and dumps him out. TRIPLE H IS ELIMINATED BY CM PUNK.
It's all over! CM Punk has won the 2011 Royal Rumble! Punk has earned himself a WWE Title shot at WrestleMania 27! Punk drops to his knees, relieved and celebrating his victory.

-Natalya finally winning the Divas Championship is good, hope she gets a lengthy reign from all the hype. McCool betraying Layla is interesting as your backstory didn't display any problems between the two. -Bryan over DiBiase is good, wouldn't mind seeing a title run for DiBiase in '11. -Ziggler over Kaval was a realistic choice here, as I see Kaval winning it soon though. -Wade Barrett over Randy Orton to retain is fine, but I can't see him going to 'Mania with it, good call though. -Cena over Kane is very good to not make him look weak through his loss at TLC. Hope he gets a lengthy reign and retains at Mania. -Slightly confused with the Royal Rumble. I see where they entered and I wonder if that was the order of elimination. Didn't wanna look through 30 pics but nice innovative idea. If so, big win for Jack Swagger here. -Good PPV; you did something different here, and I hope that works out well. Keep it up.

Overall, the Royal Rumble was a decent show. I was happy to see Natalya take the Diva's Championship from LayCool, aswell as Daniel Bryan going over DiBiase. Wouldn't have minded seeing Ted take the strap, but I'm still fine with Bryan retaining. Ziggler vs. Kaval sounds great, glad that Ziggler got the win as I was actually expecting Kaval to take the belt. Won't be too surprised to see Barrett lose the WWE Championship before WrestleMania as he isn't big enough, no matter how big the Nexus angle was, to headline WrestleMania. Love Cena on SmackDown, just because it hasn't happened in a good few years. Not surprised at all to see Cena go over Kane - he's had a long enough reign as champion. The Royal Rumble match had a unique layout, although I wish you didn't make the results in white. I just don't see what that achieved.. Also, whilst the graphics were completely unique I stopped clicking them after about entrant 8 just because I couldn't be bothered opening 30 pics and I could still read who had entered in the text results.

Cenation, highlight the text to read the results of the match. Okay, thanks. I was kind of confused here, CM Punk winning was great.

The whole Royal Rumble match layout was designed so it'd be more interesting then reading 'WRESTLER A ENTERED, WRESTLER B ELIMINATED'. You have the match going on in the text, and whilst you can read the next entry, you always have the graphics there to make it a little more 'surprising'.

Not sure if you're planning on fixing it but Randy Orton has the WWE Title according to your nice roster layout.
Rumble was a fun show, I can see Daniel Bryan reaching Mania with the United States title and keeping it even longer than that. Hope Kaval wins the IC title at Elimination Chamber so a champion vs champion match with Bryan and Kaval could take place at mania. Barrett retaining the WWE title is great news, Randy is been so boring recently, to me at least. Cena winning the belt from Kane is something I don't like to be honest. I'm far from a Cena hater but for him to just show up on Smackdown and end Kane's beast of a reign seems a bit meh. Taker/Kane never had to be over the title so Taker returning at Elimination Chamber costing Kane the title would have been slightly better. small typo at the start of the rumble, it states Justin Gabriel when I imagine it is meant to read Justin Roberts. Rumble match was fine, loved Bret Hart being in it, getting an elimination no less. Del Rio eliminating him was a great choice, I hope Del Rio has a nice feud going in to mania. CM Punk winning is fine, I always approve of a new winner instead of an older established star winning for a 2nd time.
Keep it up, lads.

Justin Gabriel is seen in the ring when we return, where he goes over the rules of the Rumble match.
