Stupid or Great Idea?

[Push R Truth]

What if we altered the Royal Rumble with one simple tweak. Instead of "a 30 Man match", we turn it into "At Least a 30 man match".

We, the crowd, don't know if 30 is actually the last guy or not. Maybe it goes all the way to 40 or 45, maybe it stops at 32. I know I loved the bigger 40 man rumble... even if Alberto Del Reeko won it. I personally think it might add a little spice to the match.

Either that, or it's the dumbest idea I've had in the history of our sport.

I'm against the idea.

Imo, if it's "at least a 30 man match", then it really sends a bad message that whoever gets left out of the Rumble is either worthless, or too stupid to try to get into the Rumble.

I do like the idea of trying to get more people onto the Rumble show, but I think the best way to do that is to limit the surprise returns to maybe 1-2, and by having absolutely NO ONE pulling double duty by working the undercard AND the Rumble. If the Intercontinental Champion has to defend his title, then too bad, he and his contender(s) are out of the Rumble match.

Alter it slightly.

30 men enter the Royal Rumble. DB wins it. While he's celebrating, the clock starts up again. DB looks confused, the commentators say "what the hell is this? another man is entering? but we've already had 30!!!"

The 31st man enters, and it's Orton. SHIELD interfere and attack DB, Orton eliminates him and wins the Royal Rumble.

The next night on RAW, HHH says "You didn't think we'd let Daniel Bryan win the Rumble did you? oh you did....lol, that's sweet. Well since Orton won the Rumble, he can't face himself for the title at Wrestlemania. Therefore at Wrestlemania Daniel Bryan will have to prove himself by running a special Wrestlemania gauntlet. If he can get through it, then he'll face Orton in the main event"

At Mania, DB runs the gauntlet and gets to the main event. During the show, Orton is seen relaxing, drinking champagne, with his feet up.


DB still beats him and wins the title. Cue confetti and celebration.
