Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
Is it a good idea or no?

If it means we'll see the guys we want to see in there that would likely be left out of the 30 man rumble, then im all for it.

I think its a good idea. It accomodates for almost everyone on the roster minus the Divas. Thought you never know, they might throw one in again.
Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
This! There are 50 men on the combined rosters, and that's including those that are injured (Bourne, Sheffield, Tarver Undertaker, Christian, Triple H). With 40, we're sure to get some surprises!Earth Child wrote:I think its a good idea. It accomodates for almost everyone on the roster minus the Divas.

Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
I'd like to point out that Tarver is no longer injured. He came back at an FCW show either late last month or early this month. I kinda want to see him in the rumble to see what they do with him.

I'll go with good idea for now. We'll see at the PPV, though.

it's actually just as long. They changed the grace period from 2 mins to 90secs, so it evens out.....The Awesome One wrote:Its longer, why not?

But still, it will take longer to eliminate the extra 10 guys (if done well, anyway)badnewzxl wrote:it's actually just as long. They changed the grace period from 2 mins to 90secs, so it evens out.....The Awesome One wrote:Its longer, why not?

I thought it was 90 seconds between entrants already?badnewzxl wrote:it's actually just as long. They changed the grace period from 2 mins to 90secs, so it evens out.....
Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
I thought it was always two minutes, except the one HBK won back in the 90's when it was like a minute....Rabid619 wrote:I thought it was 90 seconds between entrants already?badnewzxl wrote:it's actually just as long. They changed the grace period from 2 mins to 90secs, so it evens out.....

They change it almost every year, but I think it's been 90 seconds for a good while.

Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
Its a bad idea because it pretty much eliminates the undercard... 5 matches for the event I guess? 1. RR match, 2. WWE title match, 3. World title match, 4. Tag team title match, 5. Divas title match... Guess Chavo will be left out again...lol

Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
I had to check that on wikipedia, it's about half and half of the rumble's had 90-second & 2-minuet intervals: 1994, 1996-2000, 2003,2004,2005, & 2006 had 90-second for sure. It wouldn't tell me about any other the Rumbles after that. 1988-1993, 2001, & 2002 were 2- minuets. And 1995 was the only Rumble that had 60-second intervals.badnewzxl wrote:I thought it was always two minutes, except the one HBK won back in the 90's when it was like a minute....Rabid619 wrote:I thought it was 90 seconds between entrants already?badnewzxl wrote:it's actually just as long.

2007, 2008 & 2009 were also 90 seconds. I'm not certain about last year though.Catus Jack Manson wrote:I had to check that on wikipedia, it's about half and half of the rumble's had 90-second & 2-minuet intervals: 1994, 1996-2000, 2003,2004,2005, & 2006 had 90-second for sure.

PPVs usually have 6-8 matches... now only 5 with a 40 person main event... WAY too many...

In the past, some Royal Rumble's had 3 matches, then the Rumble itself.

Re: Is a 40 Man Rumble a Good Idea?
yeah. I can't remember any RR with more than 4 or 5 matches besides the Rumble. There simply isn't much time for other matches, unless you want several of them to be less than five minutesCatus Jack Manson wrote:In the past, some Royal Rumble's had 3 matches, then the Rumble itself.
