Shawn vs 'Taker from Rumble 98 by a mile. Shawn getting dragged into the casket is still one of my favorite pro wrestling visuals. Plus, Shawn piledriving Taker onto the steel steps and Taker tombstoning Shawn into the casket and that sick chokeslam. And of course, Kane setting the casket on fire afterwards.

Remember the time Hardcore Holly sandbagged Brock Lesnar and then Brock broke Holly's neck. So Holly ended up getting a PPV title shot for being an asshole? What a time to be alive

Triple Threat from this year should've been the main event.

I just watched the 2007 Rumble that had Umaga vs Cena in a good last man standing match that I think could have been great if Cena was rewining the title. That storyline needed Umaga to win at Revolution then have Cena overcome him at the Rumble.

not main event, but that Angle/Benoit match from 03 was the first time I realized what a "good match" was and stopped paying attention to whether or not my favorite won. Amazing.

Triple Threat from this year should've been the main event. Agreed. Brock should take NO back seat to anyone. Especially a crappy Rumble match. |

The casket match from 98. I watched that on PPV as a kid and I was horrified at the ending. THE CASKET'S ON FIRE, THE CASKET'S ON FIRE! And heel HBK vs. face Undertaker just always clicked.

Not the Steiner/HHH suplexfest immediately before it? Also, I was there for both of them live While we're on the subject, Royal Rumble '03 is probably my favorite Pay-Per-View set design of all time. The waterfalls and the liquid motif made it look classy in a subtle way, while still super stylized and appropriate for the big-fight atmosphere. You have any pics of what it looked like live? |

What a time to be alive And then Holly went on to win the Royal Rumble later that night. ...No wait, wasn't it someone else? I swear it was. Why do I think it was Holly? |

Had to make Roman look strong. Science still can't explain how Roman Reigns face was able to look so dorky at that situation. I still love how Roman Reigns smiles fades away with Rock face going into sudden surprise |

No chance the 2012 Rumble should've main evented.
Punk vs. Ziggler should've been a chance for some new blood to shine in the main event.
Who gave a crap about Sheamus in 2012?

He was pushed really strong in 2011. It wasn't like his Rumble win came out of the blue. A lot of people got tunnel vision with Jericho's return and automatically expected he was a lock to win. I think Sheamus would have fared a lot better had they not done the 18 seconds deal. That soured just about everyone on him. Also the jokey shit they started writing for him didn't help matters. |
