    The only way I'd be happy with Ellsworth was bc he has a shot for quickest elimination

    If you're strapped for entries, I'm Canadian but if that's not acceptable, I could pick up the box from an address in North Dakota.

    I'll be watching the Rumble anyways, may as well have something to cheer for.

    Can we make a pact that we won't post betting odds the week of the show? They usually are spoilers by the week of when the smart money comes in.

    Although I think it'd be a waste in story potential for any of the posted odds to win.

    Except Obama.

    Every year Rumble is the WWE event that gets me the most excited. I'm fantasy booking in my head everyday. So many outcomes. It's been a couple years of letdowns but I've got a good feeling about this year.

    With this BIF on top of it all... might be best Rumble ever.

    I also feel like I just jinxed everything haha.

    Ugh, I remember being at the 2011 Rumble in Boston, waiting for the #40 entrant with suspense. Hoping it would be a surprise, like a returning Triple H. Then we saw the production crew dragging out the pyro. Effing Kane.

    I was watching the 2010 Rumble last night (on the WWE Network for only $9.99) and I got to thinking would it be considered a surprise entry if a main roster women joins the Rumble? Formally the Beth Phoenix and umm...Kharma rule, potentially the Nia Jax rule.

    Alright folks ... we're three days away and we need two ....

    [​IMG]

    ... two more people.

    Also, time to spice this up a bit. Pardon the text. Here's the official entrant list so far:

    The Undertaker
    Goldberg
    Brock Lesnar
    Big Show
    Dean Ambrose
    The Miz
    Sami Zayn
    Dolph Ziggler
    Big E
    Xavier Woods
    Kofi Kingston
    Bray Wyatt
    Randy Orton
    Luke Harper
    Mojo Rawley
    Braun Strowman
    Chris Jericho
    Baron Corbin
    Cesaro
    Sheamus
    Big Cass
    Rusev

    Which means there's eight spots that are unaccounted. So as a little side BIF, person who names the most of the remaining wrestlers will get a Carton and Kane crowler (tiebreaker will be most eliminations, please no repeats of previous guesses). Not necessary to participate, but thought it'd be a fun way to pass the time, and possibly lure the final two people to join.

    Obligatory tagging: @kapkenobi @sblickem @jpatag66 @valrxman @Axic10 @Joenap419 @Damian74 @Gregf51 @TheOneTC @cjelden @LiquidCourage @chrisp450 @PHBoiler @Bjohnston @NJNYC732 @browniewithnuts @Greenplastic615 @SirPutzly @jpsy422 @Bigklip74 @OleDixie @Yabey @craft_is_king @LloydDobler @unclejazz @RoninTK3 @ChayDudeBrew

    Yep. I would be surprised if a women's wrestler appeared in one of the remaining slots. Cheers!

    Here's my best guess for the final 8. And I swear if I end up with Kane again.

    Tye Dillinger
    Kane
    Jason Jordan
    Chad Gable
    Kurt Angle
    James Ellsworth
    Tyler Bate

    First of all...thanks mcb4538 for making an already fun first BIF even more fun by adding a mini BIF into it. You're a class act. Now on to my picks...

    Tye Dillinger
    Ellsworth
    Kane
    Finn Balór
    Samoa Joe
    HBK
    Daniel Bryan
    Pete Dunne

    I find I often predict with my heart and not my head. So a few of these are far fetched to say the least.
