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 6) if Cactus and Mankind weren’t eliminated who would have come instead? Fun fact: The Quebeckers were scrapped so Mick could enter three times.

Also forgot: Stars that nurse an injury from earlier in the night, week, month on the way to the ring.

Someone has probably already mentioned skinning the cat but that for sure. 09 Rumble may have been the worst offender or 13 with Ziggler. Only time I liked that spot is when Jericho did it, since it was more so his thing really.

mine would be the 1998 and 1999 royal rumble where every person to take a stunner would back up from the move to the top rope so Austin could clothesline them out, when every other stunner usually put people down.

The stupid point to the WM sign. Everything has to be a scripted moment today rather than let anything feel organic. What was wrong with the winner simply posing for the fans or thanking them for their support?
Look at when Chris Benoit won it. His emotions were real after years of hard work. They let him simply enjoy the moment with the fans and it was a great moment (at the time). Compare that to the last 10 years or so where every winner needs to take the time to point at the sign for a stupid “moment.” It’s beyond a meme at this point.

Declaring entry via social media. There 5 hours of raw and smackdown over a week, and a 3-4 week build for the rumble event. That's 15-20hours of our lives spent on just WWE programming. I refuse to get more social media apps just to complete storyline, nah, do it on raw or smackdown, if not just turn up chances are no one will care anyway. But if they did this, how would they ever fit all those replays throughout the show...

I vote for Other: Weird threads from users with a very strange “special interest” in the rules of the Rumble.Careful, you might get a PM from the OP. I got one. I feel special!

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. This

the stupid spots that kofi does. It was cool and special when he did it once...but every year, ugh. Also last night was stupid, edge winning from #1 was absolute garbage.
also michael cole screaming and demanding we remember RUMBLE MOMENT

Didn’t see it in the poll but the Orton crap from last night, whenever someone is “taken out” with an injury early in the Rumble and comes back at the very end. It’s one of the most predictable things in the Rumble by far. I’m honestly surprised they chose for Orton to miss most of the Rumble and not the guy who just returned from a serious injury to enter at number one and go over an hour lol

Getting eliminated by a non entrant should be illegal.

Definitely military pressing/chokeslamming/powerbombing someone in the ring instead of over the rope.
Another one not listed is when 128736182376 guys all try to throw out one dude ... and can't. I mean ... come ON.

Do you actually watch anything wrestling related outside of The Royal Rumble?
