Honestly split up the Men's and Women's Royal rumbles

[Vice honcho room temperature]

My preferred method is making in for Mania and one for summerslam. Alternate each year ànd to sell it have the men's be the later one or have it split be it a December or Feb ppv or hell do a two night rumble. Two in one night is too much

[Pooh Carlson]

Or just have them both at the and time. And add more competitors to both. And more rings. And rename it World War 4.

Would they consider doing a 2 night Rumble maybe?

[schizo]

Eh, they’ve been doing both rumble matches sence 2018 and so far I think it’s been working fine

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

Counteroffer: We add a third Royal Rumble for kittens.

[Andee9001]

I think it's worked fine with them on the same night. Sure the show was a little long but i think there have been shows that have felt longer.

If there’s even a sniff they’d do decent numbers for a 2 nighter they’ll be all over it.

Put only the Men's Rumble in the January event, put the Women's Rumble in the February event every year, name that February event "Evolution".

I hate to say it this way but until they can build up the women better they should probably shorten it to 20 participants. They just don't have the quality currently for a full 30

This. The crowd sat on their hands the majority of it. I mean the difference when Becky came in was so noticeable.

I’ve seen this happen a lot during the men’s rumble aswell

I haven’t watched a lot lately and I had no idea who 75% of the music was for in the women’s and about 50% of the men’s.

That's because Def Rebel is horrible and couldn't scratch CFO$'s jock, let alone Jim Johnston or Jimmy Hart's.

They only have a handful of women that the fans have been taught to view as stars. It’s a larger issue beyond just the Rumble match.

[Slammy Award-Winning Cannibal]

I think men have to accept the reality that women are going to do the same things men are going to do in WWE. Men then have to be okay with the fact that those women are going to do things typically at a much smaller size than the men, since the casting/hiring has always been that the men should be largely over 6 feet tall and weigh over 220. Therefore a battle royal style match will ALWAYS look different, no matter what, since those ropes are gonna stay in the same place.

I think once that’s established and men can truly accept that reality, layers of sexism can be peeled away and we can just enjoy two of these matches in one night and not worry about the quality of one compared to the other.

The only one looking at this in terms of sexism is you. The issue that was brought up was having two 1 hour+ matches on the same PPV, has nothing to do with the sex of the participants.

You are right thus until you actively work to fix it, it's kind of hard to have 30 women in the match

[lildude8218]

Have them simultaneously at Titan Tower.

Its fine with them on the same night.

They just need to book way less other stuff for the show.

I would actually be fine with them just doing the 2 Rumbles (maybe up them to 40 people) and that being the entire show.

[Jindrak Mark]

The two Rumbles is definitely the way to go.

It blows my mind though that there's now been 6 Rumble PPVs with both matches and not once have they started the show with one and ended it with the other. It seems the simple thing to do. It's an exhausting match for the live crowd so give them as long as possible between both matches to cool down. I get this year they probably needed to close with the Bloodline angle but I've no idea why they didn't just open and close with the Rumbles all the other times.

The Rumble matches are such a draw on their own that they also don't rneed anything else major on the card really. That's why I was surprised last year when they also put two huge title matches like Roman/Seth and Brock/Bobby. I'd be fine with just a couple of midcard matches to fill out the card. I was even okay with the Bray/LA Knight thing because after an emotionally draining 75 minute match I didn't want to move on to some regular wrestling match that would probably have a tired/dead crowd even if the wrestlers delivered. Why waste something with potential to be great in a terrible spot on the card like that.
