The thing I don't understand from what I've read here and elsewhere is people complaining about the predictability of the Rumble over the past couple years. I've seen so many people say because of the stipulation there are only a few people that have a realistic chance of winning. Where have you guys been? It has been that way since 1992. To be honest I've never been a big fan of the stipulation for exactly that reason but it most certainly is not a recent problem.
I'm used to the predictability because of the stipulation. What's bothered me more recently is how obviously scripted the Rumble has been even for wrestling. For something that's supposed to be random there sure are a lot of conveniently timed spots. It's wrestling so of course these planned spots have to happen but it could be a little less obvious. It's hard to explain but I think the better Rumbles are the ones where everything at least seems random if that makes sense.
