***Official Royal Rumble 2012 thread*** - Page 5 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Nash pointing to a fallen Sid and letting the referee (who had previously been knocked out) know, "Hey what's up bro, I powerbombed him" and the referee declaring him the winner of the powerbomb match...that was a good one.

Heh

I was actually a massive A-Ri mark at the time and had him as my 6th favourite to win it, and they never actually called his elimination so I thought he was doing what Santino had done (ie not gone out over top rope).

Much failure and mocking was had.

I am really coming around to Adra Ocal's idea. Have 2-3 wrestlers in the ring once number 29 comes out. Then in that interval, they all get eliminated somehow, leaving the ring empty for number 30 to come and win the Rumble without doing a thing and "change the world forever..."

I know it would just really get me mad to see him win it that way, and since that's what they're going for with Y2J, it really couldn't be more perfect.

Hacksaw making an appearance every few years, walking to the ring, getting near insta knocked out then walking out is like a tradition.

Road Dogg proved he is still plenty over at the Slammies so meh, whatever, give him X Pac's spot that he ****ed up and let him have a pay day for a couple minutes in the sun.

And yeah, Road Warrior Animal is Big Johnny's brother Joe.

Also Joe's son is the St Louis Rams linebacker so there is the potential for some interesting family reunion connections or whatever.

Oh and i am disappoint that the other Laurinaitis, Marcus aka Fury from The Wrecking Crew isnt in that list, get all the Laurinaitis' on the show imo, lol.

While I wish Duggan would stay away, I don't have a problem in general with that list either.

I do hope those aren't the only surprise entrants though.

apparently you don't want to draw #14 in the rumble. not only has that number never won, but it seems to be a career killer

I have a feeling the number 2 entrant will be someone like Mason Ryan, so Miz has to deal with a "monster" at the start of the rumble.

re: Bulldog

Quote:

After the Rumble: Anything remotely flippant or funny about this article sort of goes down the drain on this one. In 2002, the British Bulldog passed away from a heart attack, believed to have been brought about by years of steroid abuse. He was just 39 years old.

Verdict: It’s impossible to say that anyone who dies before seeing their 40th birthday has anything other than bad luck.

wait wat. he crammed his body full of poison nonstop.

The main reason the list of surprise entries is annoying to me is that I was secretly hoping for Brodus Clay + Rikishi + Godfather funky ho-down in the ring for a solid 10 minutes.

I was wondering if Rikishi might make a surprise appearance and have Dance Off with Brodus after they both empty the ring. I doubt they would bring back Godfather the pimp during the PG era though.

They brought back "Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry on flashback night.

saying road dogg is over really doesn't mean jack ****. fans cheer for whatever random people who used to wrestle 10 years ago.

road dogg at his peak was what, the 5th fiddle on dx? new age outlaws was pretty big, but he followed that up with forgettable tag teams with x-pac and k-kwik (r-truth)?

at his peak he was half of an over tag team who could never get over as a singles star. this is just one of h's friends getting a payday. gfy
