I was on a trivia team with eyebooger that had a big wrestling section one round.

Can confirm.

I have no idea what's going on, and 30 questions good gravy, but sure, in

and quite likely to pull a Santino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTTWsQk3j2I

I think there needs to be something to balance the game out. Otherwise people could be answering 30 sheep questions where rand() plays the largest factor in determining the winner.

As it should (in a Royal Rumble). However, a top tier sheeper will still have an advantage over the field even if he rands an early entry. Example, someone who rarely aces shouldn't really be KOd too often. And in a field of 30, someone who consistently scores at least ~7 or 8 is probably enough to stay in the match the whole game

it's obviously going to be highly random and dependent on when you get in

but who cares, nobody's gonna get hurt

besides, if you bake Stuck cookies you should get a late enough entry that it'll be fine

ONLY 2 PEOPLE HAVE EVER WON FROM THE NUMBER ONE POSITION, ONE OF THEM WAS HBK IN 1995.

Yes, but how many have won from #2, which is the exact same thing

Also, just an idea. How about everyone who is left goes into a separate 5 or 10 question sheep to determine the winner. Obviously said game would still be open to everyone to play, but only the remaining entrants are eligible to win the Rumble.

Edit: That would turn the game into a hybrid of the Royal Rumble and Battlebowl, but it's a suggestion.

I also would like to think I could hang with eyebooger in the wrestling trivia department

2 - Mr. McMahon (1999) and Rey Mysterio (2006).

I started watching WWE just before Rey won the RR in 2006. I stopped watching in like 2010 or something when it got ridiculous. I still come back every spring to youtube the most recent RR. They are fun to watch but year after year it gets more silly imo.

Yea I just started when there was still lingering storylines from the attitude erea. Hardy's were still around, Edge was prominent, Christian and Jericho made returns, DX came back, HBK/Ric Flair were still relevant and Undertaker wasn't chubbytaker

That said there was also Kurt Angle for a time and Batista, but at least Batista could fight. Better actor tho nowawadays.

And I don't care what anyone says, the cruiserweights were fun to watch. Paul London & Brian Kendrick still my fav duo
