I'm all for pushing the undercard and everything, but this is freakin' KANE. He should be in the Rumble. Yes! He needs to get that elimination record from HBK before he retires. Kane will never break title related records or be considered one of the very best of all-time so it would be nice if he could leave his mark on history and royal rumble mythology by permanently holding that record (or at least until there's somebody else suited to breaking it which will take years anyway). Kane not being in last years rumble was bad enough, it's not like Jindar Mahal benefited from his legendary silent entrance and forgettable performance. Most of the undercard will be fodder anyway, they can use the opportunity to put one or two over but not all of them. Plus the rumble is built for Team Hell No, will they work together or turn on each other? It's rumble storytelling 101 and can will define the next couple of months of their careers.

Can't wait to see both DB and Kane in the Rumble. I want one of them to hug someone random in the Rumble. It would be great if Generico debuted and Bryan hugs him just like old times I hope both of them, espeically Bryan get a good showing, I hope he wins. He is one of my dark horse picks

No, they are in the Rumble. There have been plenty of times where people in the undercard have entered the Rumble (Bret Hart co-won one with Luger after losing a tag title match earlier that facilitated the heel turn of Owen Hart)

I know he's not gonna win, but I'm also hoping he gets the elimination record back on Sunday.

One of the subtle things to notice about some of the previous Royal Rumbles where superstars pulled double duty... if two guys had a match and they later were both in the Royal Rumble, whoever lost the one on one match would later eliminate the guy who beat them. Examples: Tatanka/Bam Bam Bigelow in 1994 where Tatanka won the match, but was eliminated from the Rumble by Bigelow. Also see in 1997 where Triple H pinned Goldust but was later eliminated by him in the Rumble. They did that with R-Truth/Miz a couple of years back and it worked REALLY well.

I don't think WWE has enough star power NOT to include him and D-Bryan.
