I was doing some research on the elimination chamber and found a somewhat interesting fact.
HBK is the first to win a Royal Rumble with the number one entry and the first to win the Chamber with the last entry.
Undertaker is the first person to win the Royal Rumble with the last entry and the first to win the Elimination Chamber with the first entry.
Crazy how similar of a career these two have had.

Cool fact, these guys have defo had parallel careers kinda lol.
I've wanted to see Austin, Rock and Lesnar compete in a EC match. If only the match was created a year earlier in 2001, we definitely would have gotten one featuring Austin/Rock.

Or it could just be WWE writers creating arbitrary similarities. Too much choice and open-endedness creates paralysis, writer's block. But it becomes easier to build a story if you contain it with goalposts, like saying "By the end of this year, these guys are going to have this, this, and this in common. Use the current events to make this happen."

This is the IMDB trivia of Wrestling Facts.

I read that as if I was listening to a baseball announcer giving stats like “This Guy is batting over .400 on Mother’s Day after the 8th inning when the temperature is over 70 degrees”  |

Now thats what I call an interesting chamber fact. Want to hear a Chamber rumor? Eric Bishoff got the idea to sacrifice people in chambers like that but he thought killing was wrong so he brought it to WWE writers who called it Satans Playground and banned it. But Eric sneaked the papers through and boom The Elimination Chamber was born, not confirmed its on the extras on the WWE Elimination Chamber DVD 3 disc set This post is as dumb as your roasting thread. |

I dunno, I actually thought this was kind of a neat little tidbit. But I love stats, they're neat.
