Royal Rumble Loophole

[nightmare]

Here is a question: If Zach Gowen was thrown out of the Rumble, would he be eliminated considering both feet must hit the ground? Or would he have to hop twice for it to count?


This should be tested, if nothing else than to see him tossed over the top like a rubber pencil. Hell, we could even have Cesaro do the Big Swing to get the proper momentum.

Cena would molest his family whilst he was Rumbling. It's awful petty to think about how he would be eliminated when that deviance would be happening.

 

[Spidey Revivey]

Undertaker's Rumble win shouldn't count. He's a walking corpse for Christ's sake.

 

[The Butcher]

Brock Lesnar killed Zach Gowen in 2003 by throwing him down a flight of stairs. At least that's my recollection of it.

I've always wondered what they'd do if like the person eliminated just landed on their back or stomach, but neither foot (or only one) touched. Would they let them slither over the the steps and try to climb back in or just be like "dude, c'mon."

Kofi Kingston & John Morrison have answered most of these questions.

You got this out of a meme, didn't you?

Neither of their bodies (torso) connected with the floor.

Morrison landed on the guard wall.

Kofi, if I remember right, landed on his hands.

He gets eliminated by Johnny Devine at 12.45 but he lands on his back.

Thought of this while watching old RR clips on YouTube. The announcers constantly repeat the rule & I was reminded of Gowen.

This actually exists?! Well leave it to TNA to completely forget the rules of their own match 12 minutes in.

Damien Sandow is due to chop off his own foot mid match this year and hide it down his trunks to avoid elimination. He's too smart not to think of this.

Sorry, I should have put this in Spoiler tags.

I heard he is going to hire a butler to assist him during matches. So if he gets tossed over the top, the servant will catch him. Then he can piggy back ride his way to the steps and get back in the Rumble.


You're Welcome.

That's one of my all time favorite wrestling moments. I couldn't stop laughing.

 

[ABMorales787]

Kevin Nash in the X Division was pure awesome.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Why didn't Kofi just wait on the announce table last year? He would totally be main eventing right now if he did.

 

[therockiswwf]

If Austin went into a coma after getting attacked in the 99 rumble, would it still be going? I mean Russo was booking at the time and I wouldn't put it past him.

Matt Hardy did that with Shannon Moore one year.

Who the hell is Matt Hardy?

Don't nitpick.
