2. matt hardy turning on jeff to start a monster fued heading into mania
3. santino breaking warlords record
4. having a goldust/rhodes confrontation
MISSES

2. (like one) shawn michaels not in the rumble.
3. morrison not lasting 30+ minutes in the rumble

4. punk being elimnated by big show( why not regal, kofi, morrison, or rvd?) Because Big Show is more credible then Regal, Kofi, and Morrison. RVD well is maybe. Hits: -Dolph's Elimination -Santino's Elimination -The Brian Kendrick quickly eliminating Kofi then getting eliminated after -Melina stop hitting yourself with your leg Miss: -Miz and Morrison getting eliminated too early |

Hits: -Taker/Shawn meet up again at the Rumble. -Orton winning -"One of a kind!" -Jim Duggan -Beth forcing Melina to kick herself was a neat spot. -The Rumble match itself. A lot of nice action throughout. -The HBK Chin Music fest. Leaves the story still wide open. -Santino breaks the record. -Cody/Goldust confrontation. Misses: -No Umaga  [probably not a fair criticism, but I was hoping for a return from him] -I would have preferred that Phoenix retained. I am not quite sold on Melina as babyface champion. Wait and see: -Matt Hardy heel turn. Lots of potential here. -Jack Swagger as ECW champion. |

Hits:
Edge winning.
Matt turning.
Legacy dominating Rumble.
R V D
misses:
Melina winning(that makes no sense)
HBK sweet chin music on JBL.
MVP being eliminated early, i think he needed a good showing in this match. Possibly being in the final 8 or so.
That's all, everything else is pretty forgetable, or still TBD.

no offense but if threads about thew rumble are getting deleted/moved to the rumble thread... shouldnt this be there The usual practice on TV show threads and PPV is that you don't make a new thread about the show DURING the event. The mods allow more threads about the show after it has aired. I support this position. |

HITS
- Hacksaw laying down the Undertaker
- Rob Van Dam coming back!
- Cody f***ing Rhodes in the final three!
- Edge becoming champ again
- Melina winning
- Matt Hardy turning on Jeff - saw it coming ages ago and knew it wouldn't turn out to be Cage.
- JTG and his fake coin
- Undertaker & Michaels meet backstage
MISSES
- Randy Orton winning
- MVP not winning, it was the perfect opportunity, and what happens he comes out at 4 and is one of the first to be eliminated.
- Triple H in the final two. Undertaker should have eliminated him.
- RVD not winning it, come on, hes in his home state.
- John Cena winning.
- No Umaga
