I'm afraid it isn't. The 2011 thread got to nearly 30 pages before the show even started.

WWE.com have got Bryan, Kane and Khali officially in, as well as the NXT Tournament winner. Apparently Kofi was announced as being in on Superstars, but WWE.com haven't confirmed that... can anyone confirm that? I've put him on the poster anyway.
OK, so it looks like we have 12 mystery entrants this year... Half will probably just be regular roster guys, but then there's all those rumoured guys mentioned previously.

Everything he can conceivably do in a Rumble has been done in his past appearances. |

Kofi is officially in now. It now leaves only The Prime Time Players left as people who have announced their entry but not had it acknowledged.

Kane by himself just can't hold down the hossitude by himself unless Luke Harper wins the NXT tourny and goes to the rumble or Tensai is in. |

According to Josh Matthews on commentary tonight, Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow will be in the Rumble match.

Kind of hope for a Henry/Ryback face off in the rumble

So I decided to order the Rumble already to be streamed on my laptop; Rumble and Mania are the only PPVs I ever bother ordering (this year I hope to actually BE at WM), but I have never actually ordered it online before.
How is the quality usually?

Prime Time Players are officially in, which now leaves only Rhodes/Sandow.
It's like they're reading these forums again or something...
(Put Ryder in... hint hint)

So is that NXT tournament replacing the pre-show battle royal, as far as having something that rewards the winner with a rumble spot? Hence, the Miz\Antonio match?

It's gonna be a tourney held during the Axxess shows tomorrow and I think Sunday. Something to drum up some interest in Axxess it seems. Read about 2 of the surprise entrants and one isn't much of a shock but the other is. |

I really hope kaval returns even just for a night and have a good showing to compensate WWE's burying of him the last time he was there.

Okay, so there are 11 spots left in the Rumble. That includes one spot for the NXT guy and likely three surprise entrants. That leaves seven spots. Likely candidates:
1: Brodus Clay
2: Tensai
3: Justin Gabriel
4: Zack Ryder
5: Jimmy Uso
6: Jay Uso
7: Someone else
As for those surprise entrants, we shouldn't rule out a returning Rey Mysterio or Sin Cara.

I'd say Brodus is likely, as probably is Tensai just for the big elimination purpose. |

Why did they waste a spot on Khali?! Everything he can conceivably do in a Rumble has been done in his past appearances. its just not a rumble without some hosses and I doubt Taker, Show and Henry are in this year. Kane by himself just can't hold down the hossitude by himself unless Luke Harper wins the NXT tourny and goes to the rumble or Tensai is in. I'd rather see Tensai than Khali, and isn't Ryback in the Rumble too? And they have Brodus for a big guy face. There are other more deserving guys on the roster than Khali. |
