It's absolutely possible with the roster depth they have. Add in a few legends and NXT guys and it'd work fine. Trouble is with how recent Rumbles have been booked it'd just be prolonging the agony rather than giving people chances. The 30 man format works just fine. At the end of the day there are only ever a handful of potential winners, maybe 5 max, so why fill it out any more? This. The 40 man Rumble was great, but it was only done so they could justify putting the entirety of the super popular Nexus in the Rumble without blowing 1/3 of the spots.

Yes, but only if there are like 10 potential winners.

Absolutely. I think 40 should be the default from now on, given the depth of the roster. 15 from Raw, 15 from SD, 5 from 205 Live, 5 for legends/NXT debuts.

I would. f*** it, why not? I’d watch a hundred-person Rumble. Yep. I always get bummed out when we run out of entrants.

Only if someone unexpected is gonna win. Otherwise, nah. We have to remember though that their idea of “unexpected” differs from ours. Sure, it’s unexpected if you only watch the TV and they don’t book the winner all that strong coming in or whatever, but not so much when you read news reports in the weeks ahead of time saying that that guy is going to win.

I would like it if it means tons of unexpected stuff and big spots. Not if it's just the Rumbled plus 10 guys from 205 Live or something.

Sure. I liked the last one albeit it was paced weirdly so I’d be open to another one.

The Rumble is my favourite gimmick match, so honestly, the more Rumble the better.
40-man Rumble? f*** yes.
30-woman Rumble and 30-man Rumble in the same night? All the f***s yes.
Three hour PPV that is literally just one big Rumble with every single motherf***er we have signed as well as surprise entrants? I WILL BUY THE NETWORK SIX TIMES ON DIFFERENT CREDIT CARDS TO WATCH IT ON ALL MY SCREENS AT ONCE.
I'm only half joking.

Do the full rosters of all 3 brands and have the rumble be a shoot then just make the story fit the winner.
