1989: Big John Studd
Of cause not. Really what did Studd ever do? They should have given the oppertunity to somebody like Dibiase or Rick Rude.
1990: Hulk Hogan
No. What was the point. He was the champion at the time (I believe) I would have let Mr. Perfect, Dibiase, Rude or The Ultimate Warrior win.
1991: Hulk Hogan
Yeas. Other than Savage there wasn't really anybody who was worthy of winning. Certainly not The Undertaker or Earthquake.
1992: Ric Flair
Hell yeah. With out Flair that Rumble wouldn't have been that special. And the ending and the fact it was for the title made it all the better.
1993: Yokozuna
I suppose. He had that whole monster heel thing down pretty good. Again I think Savage should have won. But Yoko looked impressive when he easily eliminated people.
1994: Bret Hart & Lex Luger
No. WWE should have chosen one wrestler. Be it Bret Hart or Lex Luger.
1995: Shawn Michaels
I suppose. Diesel looked more impressive. And the crowd wanted the Bulldog to win. He hardly had an intresting year, it didn't do that much for him.
1996: Shawn Michaels
Yes. He should have been a world champ the previous year. But better late than never.
1997: Steve Austin
Well he didn't really win. But I think that was one of the years when there was a real choice. Bret Hart, Austin, Taker, Vader and Mankind. Not a bad choice though.
1998: Steve Austin
Hell yeah. I love how Austin was super over and the fans just needed him to win. Unlike when HBK had to wait a year for his W.M. title victory, Austins was worth the wait.
1999: Vince McMahon
Yeah. You couldn't ask for more heat. And everyone knew Austin would headline W.M. anyway.
2000: The Rock
Lame Rumble. the only other option was Big Show. So yeah the right choice IMO.
2001: Steve Austin
I guess. Either him or The Rock. Neither would have been a bad option
2002: Triple H
Yeah. After his return he couldn't have been more over. Well him or Angle.
2003: Brock Lesnar
At the time yes. But he left less than 18 months later. So looking back Booker should have won it.
2004: Chris Benoit
I guess. I dont think Benoit made himself stand out in that match. And I was kind of surprised he won. Orton did a better job of looking good in that match.
2005: Batista
Fuck no. It should have been Cena. He's younger and he can talk. The build up to Batista/HHH bored the shit out of me. The build up to Cena/JBL was better. And who's the bigger star now? Cena
2006: Rey Mysterio
Meh. Either HHH, Rey or Orton would have been fine. Wasn't it like the 10th match he's dedicated to Eddie Guerrero? Like Benoit 2 years previous I dont think he really stood out in the match. I loved how HHH came out 1st and Rey (the winner) had to come out 2nd.
2007: The Undertaker
There was only really 2 opyions and that was HBK & Taker. Michaels has won it before so yeah thay made the right choice.
