40 Man Royal Rumble this year!

From: http://www.wwe.com/shows/royalrumble/matches/16630520/preview/

Almost three decades ago, the dream of modern-day WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon was made manifest with the birth of the squared circle’s most celebrated spectacle, WrestleMania. More than a quarter of a century later, an unprecedented 40 Superstars will have the ultimate opportunity to realize their dream of performing in the World Championship main event match on this now aggrandized stage for the most brilliant competitors.

They can dance on The Grandest Stage of Them All at WrestleMania XXVII. But first, one man will need to surpass the efforts of 39 opposing competitors with the same aspiration in the 2011 Royal Rumble Match.

A celebrated tradition in WWE, the Rumble has boasted 30 men since 1989. Now, in 2011, the competition gets fiercer with an additional 10 gladiators, forging the biggest Rumble in history and guaranteeing not just a longer joust, but also more eliminations and over-the-top action.

A test of endurance, athleticism and survival at all costs, the Rumble Match is the definitive Battle Royal, where each Superstar’s prime objective is to propel their opponents over the top rope, with both feet touching the floor. Every 90 seconds, one of 40 elite ring warriors with randomly drawn Rumble entry numbers joins the fray. Though luck of the draw can be a critical factor in such a high-stakes situation (ideally, entering last like 2007 winner Undertaker and 2008 victor John Cena, both at No. 30), past Rumble winners have included Superstars who kicked off the Battle Royal at No. 1 (as seen in 1995 with Shawn Michaels).

But, with bodies being tossed out every moment and fresh competitors coming in at such a rapid pace, it’s really anyone’s match. (Watch a special look at the Rumble Match)

In the end, the last Superstar standing can officially punch a gold-embossed ticket to Atlanta's Georgia Dome, where they will contend for a World Title of their choosing at WrestleMania.

However, as the saying goes, “You have to be in it to win it.” Tune into WWE programming and stay logged on to WWE.com as entrants are named for the 24th annual Royal Rumble Match. Then be sure to witness this epic event live on pay-per-view on Sunday, Jan. 30, as the 2011 Royal Rumble defines the course of WWE's new year.

You're highly, highly incorrect.

Name one that was worse.

Best Rumble ever. SPINAROONIS EVERYWHERE

Anything with a spinaroonie in it has to be awesome! I'm glad I missed it, by many accounts it was a waste of time

Uh, says who? That was one of the best Rumbles ever.

Would have been the greatest rumble ever had Santino won it.

I despise Alberto Del Rio, and not for the right reasons.

So, uh, Seth and Ravish, can you tell us why this Rumble sucked?

I personally thought it was a good Rumble. Woulda liked to see Punk make it all the way to the end, and Hornswoggle did nothing for me, but overall, a very enjoyable Rumble that saw Booker T hit three signature moves before doing the Spinaroonie during the Rumble. That in itself made the Rumble for me, because I marked out like a little bitch.

1) I feel 40 men is overkill.
2) I felt Miz looked god damn terrible
3) Del Rio isn't over enough to win the rumble yet.

Hornswaggle was awesome.

Have you seen the heat he gets? He's over as fuck.

That's not over Nick, that's people hating a smiling Mexican cause he's a smiling Mexican.

Uh, a heel getting a lot of heat IS over, no matter why it is they get that heat.

Del Rio was World Champ down in Mexico. Out of anyone on the current roster not named Cena or Orton, Del Rio is the most polished and ready for a major title because he's done it before on the big stage.

The Rumble Match was awesome you mooks.

No, Del Rio wasn't a world champion in Mexico.

Dos Caras, Jr. was under a mask as a luchadore.

Normal people aren't smart enough to know that, so he doesn't exactly have this mainstream exposure that everyone thinks.

Besides which, they're setting him up to lose at Mania upon which he'll float back down to the midcard...so what was the point of letting him win and waste it?

It's still Del Rio under the mask, so he does have the experience of being a world champ on a big stage. And no one said anything about mainstream exposure.

And how do you know he's being set up to lose?

Edge won the Rumble last year and lost.

Look where that went *gets his coat*.

Seth just hates Mexicans.

Moar like he just hates WWE.

Well that and racism.

yeah, I mean I dont disagree. You guys say that because he has heat hes a "good heel" but XPac always got the loudest boos and they probably wouldnt have him win the Royal Rumble anytime soon.

I'm just throwin that out there.

Nash > booker

whatever they try to do with Del Rio good on them.

It's called getting a rub, fool.
