Booker's return and the insane crowd reaction that accompanied it, that was so amazing.

I really can't decide between Booker and JoMo. I had meltdowns for both.
I have to go for JoMo though, because I KNEW Booker was coming back so the moment was slightly spoiled. JoMo's parkour caught me completely off guard and that was f***ing awesome.

You forgot, what about Matt Striker using the term "mark out moment" on the broadcast ?

Maybe it's because I knew Booker and Nash were showing up but it's Santino almost heading off to Wrestemania for me.

I voted for JoMo. I knew it was coming but it was still cool to see it. The Diesel/Booker T was both really cool, while I did like to Santino make it to the final 2, I knew he wasn't going to do it when he started to celebrate so much after hitting the Cobra.
As for Edge and the killswitch, it didn't even dawn on me til I saw it as a option. The lowlight for me was Kane coming in at #40. I was hoping he would've came in sooner so he could've racked up the eliminations before being knocked out, maybe even teasing with breaking his own record.

Morrison's parkour, Nexus' dominance (perhaps in a few years we'll think of CM Punk as "Mr. Royal Rumble"), BOOKAH, DIIIIIIIIESEL, Del Rio seizing his crown, and that brief, magical moment where it legitimately looked like Santino Marella was going to win the Royal Rumble. Sigh....

Somebody's gotta vote for Ziggler's performance. I guess that'll have to be me. He may not have won, but he definitely showed that he deserved that spot.
Though not sure what the point was of him in the Rumble considering he did next to nothing of note.

Also, while I wouldnt vote for it, I think the Chavo bit was pretty amazing.

Diesel's return. Followed by Booker T > Del Rio winning > Santino's teased win.

Even though you knew he wasn't gonna win, the little mark in me popped huge when Santino came back.

I find it kinda funny that a few months ago, the overwhelming consensus with Nash was "he's too old, he needs to step out of the spotlight, he just comes and hits the same few spots, he needs to retire for good," and when he comes back as Diesel at the Rumble, everyone marks. Or at least enough to have him leading this poll.
Anywho, the return of Chet Lemon and Black Snow were spoiled for me ahead of time, so it wasn't quite as effective. My top 5 moments were Edge hitting the Unprettier/Killswitch in his match, the Punk/Nexus strategery, JoMo's spot, Chavo's Nine Amigos/Eddie Shimmy (makes me tear up every time), and the split second that I thought Santino might actually have a shot at winning the thing.

The Santino tease. I was actually convinced Santino was going to win.

I was hoping and praying for Santino to win it since he hid under the ring. As soon as I saw the Cobra with Del Rio's back turned, I thought he had it. I really did and prepared to do the air trombone for 20 minutes. I really hope it leads to a genuine push.

I'm sad Nexus is even an option. They killed the match for a long while for me.
Still, were a lot of awesome moments. I'll say Santino or Booker.

I would have voted Diesel but I was a fool and read spoilers. I went with Morrison's Parkour. That was amazing.

Subjectively? The story they actually told about How united Nexus is behind Punk. Even the Corre didn't get that opportunity.
Returns are great and all but very rarely do they get to do much in a rumble, which is fair as the spotlight should rightfully be on talent that has been busting their A$$ over the last year.
