**Official Royal Rumble Pool Thread** - Page 11 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Tpir, a point of clarification: is "first elimination" the first wrestler who gets eliminated or the first who eliminates someone else? I'm guessing it's the former, but when put right next to "most eliminations" it made me question it.

on that note, im confused as to longest run. how is this determined? do they keep track of how long wrestlers last? or u just go off how many more wrestlers come out after they do while they are still alive?

If you get Bob Backlund, you win. Anyone else and you probably don't.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_R...d_eliminations

so last year the first superstar eliminated was Justin Gariel, CM Punk lasted the longest amount of time and Punk eliminated the most people. Santino was the runner-up (lol) and ADR won. so those would be your prize winners.

Also, didn't see it in this thread, but when would the draft be?

There is one open draft slot if you want it! Draft will be the Monday of the week leading up to the rumble, so Jan. 23rd. Rumble is the 29th.

Up to you and Eskimo. He expressed interest in being in both if there was room and it would be good to get them both filled but wesrwood will let me know.
