The review a wai review of this was very good. Included a interview with a Lagana who was there at the time in the back when the botch happened.
Nobody knew what Vince was doing when he was sitting in the ring and he actually tore his other quad when he tried to walk back under his own power.
Plus another problem was coming up with an ending quickly cause the pay per view was nearing its ending time and they didn't want to do a DDP vs Goldberg.

2011, 40 man rumble was good fun and even if the winner was a dud the Santino tease at the end was tops.
Also it had the CLASSIC Cena and Orton face offs attempting to recreate Rock/Austin ala 2001 twice in the same match to crowd indifference and the worst back and forth punching from either man.

I didn't enter the WrassleGAF rumble this year because it's clearly fixed against The Zandig.
CZfuckinDub.
If you want you can take my spot.
I do not post much here, and is always fun to see you wearing an avatar of a wrestler you do not like q:
Also having the Zandig is a tradition on the Wrassle rumble

I'm still baffled that Anthem actually wants to keep the TNA name instead of just calling the company Impact Wrestling Federation or something. Impact itself sounds okay, but TNA sounds like a shitty attitude era reference.

The Royal Rumble match might be the biggest example of making up rules whenever you want.
Some years outside interference can eliminate someone other years, like 96 where HBK getting thrown over by Vader after Vader had been eliminated means he's not eliminated...
Some years you can eliminate yourself. Other years you can't.
Some years managers are banned from ringside other years they aren't.
The best thing is the announcers always talk about these different rules as if that's always how it has been.

We had a total of 34 entrants into the 2017 WrassleGaf Royal Ramble Lethal Lottery. I used a random number generator to pick a number between 1 and 30 for each of the first group of 30. I made sure there was no overlap. I then went and did a random number between 1 and 30 for each of the overflow participants. Some numbers are assigned to two people...that's just how it goes.
I've found in the past this can add extra enjoyment to the Rumble as you find yourself rooting for someone you never thought you would before.
Root for whoever comes out at your number to win and enjoy the Rumble!

To get unlimited free months of the network/netflix/ect., ask friends and family for their empty visa/mastercard giftcards. Use a new email address, along with the empty gift card as the credit card number. Since it doesn't charge the free month, it just believes its a new card. This gets around when they limit free trials by credit card # used. Used to do this in my more broke days.

Erick Rowan to make a surprise return so I can get him twice in a row during the rumble pick.

Well, fuck me. I'm not sure there's even anyone on the card I care enough about to hope he pulls a Michaels/Benoit.
Ok. 13 isn't the number I would've wanted but if Zayn or Orton come out in that spot then I'll feel more confident in the spot. 13 just feels like a low tier jobber who gets eliminated quickly spot.
Previous 13's:
2016: Luke Harper
2015: Stardust
2014: R Truth
2013: Brodus Clay
2012: Ezekiel Jackson
2011: Micheal McGillicutty
2010: Cody Rhodes
2009: The Miz
2008: Cody Rhodes
2007: Super Crazy
In fact the only time number 13 won the rumble was the first ever rumble. The power of Duggan is with me.

I simply refuse to believe its a botch. I think its a worked shoot to make people think it was a botch.
