So for spots/mini segments (i.e Jake clearing the ring with his snake in 96, Santino's elimination 2009) what was your favorite. I really enjoyed CM Punks sermon in 2010. It was a good start to a bad Rumble but had me grinning from ear to ear. I really loved how they used his gimmick to make a sermon during the match in as he eliminated people.
Makes me think of other cool spots people could do with their gimmick in that match. Much like the 2 Cool dance off it was really a nice bit of light hearted banter with the crowd without making the match feel like a complete joke like in 2012 with the forced comedy like when Foley/Santino had that lame sock/cobra battle, Michael Cole running about in wrestling gear, and the other announcers joining the match.

The brief hardcore brawl in the 2001 Rumble, capped off by a guitar upside the head of The Honky Tonk Man.

Any "the floor is lava" spot by Kofi, Morrison, or Rey.

So many choices.
Mizdow deciding whether to enter, then entering, getting thrown out and immediately returning to his stunt double shtick.

Did they ever do the Adam Rose/Rosebuds spot in the end? That would have been nice.

Did they ever do the Adam Rose/Rosebuds spot in the end? That would have been nice. This year. Rosebuds acted as Kofi's save. |

Bushwacker Luke power-marched to the ring, got inside, gets immediately eliminated, then just power-marched back to the locker room without missing a beat: as if it's a part of his daily routine.
Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie going chair-for-chair. (Pretty much any time tag team partners face off is usually interesting.)

Warrior and Hogan alone in the ring in 1990.

Warrior and Hogan alone in the ring in 1990. That's probably my favorite in Rumble history. The crowd instantly goes nuts. Imagine two mega over babyfaces who had been on the roster for years, yet had never even been on the screen at the same time. It was amazing. |

I'll add in the 1991 Rumble when Hawk comes in and starts beating the crap out of everyone and no selling everything. There are like 10 guys in the ring who get tired of his shit and they all turn on him and beat him down. I could never tell if it was kayfabe or not, but it's hilarious.

-When Ax and Smash got 1 and 2 and just tore into each other.
-The Three Faces of Foley in one Rumble match was pretty cool.
-And, as always, Heenan in 1992.

I loved Austin in the 97 Rumble where he's in the ring alone easily chucking out anyone who came in and then waiting impatiently for the next guy. Him pretending to check his watch is hilarious. Also always loved him getting thrown out but quickly sliding back in to win while the refs aren't looking. Great finish in my opinion.
Mil Mascaras' brief appearance in 97 is also a favourite of mine.

Orton and Benoit as 1 and 2 fighting through half the rumble, sometimes being the only 2 in the ring, then Ortons reaction as Foleys music hits.
Must also mention the mixture of fear/defiance that Austin showed when Brets music started, HHH for Cenas music in 08 and Punk for HHH in '11.

Ax and Smash drawing #1 and #2 in the 89' Rumble, beating the piss out of each other until Andre came in at #3. Then they team up to beat on Andre
