2732087, there's a lot of Rumble tropes that have gotten pretty grating Posted by pretentious username, Wed Feb-10-21 11:00 PM
I still love it, cause the Rumble is always fun, but if you'll let me rant for a moment, I hate:
- the wrestler who stays out most of the match and comes back. at least they spun it so Orton didn't win this time.
- the 2 feet rule has gotten pretty foolish. i love the crazy spots, but there's no reason a person with their entire torso on the ground should still be in.
- eliminated wrestlers or affiliates shouldn't be able to eliminate anyone. Shit is lame. There's a million refs here and they're not allowed to make this call? The 92 Rumble is kinda ruined by the fact that Hogan assisted in Sid's elimination.
I also think they should make better use of tag teams, friends, and factions. There's always an agreement to "eliminate everyone else and then fight each other," but EVERYONE turns on each other too early! Just bad strategy. I believe only Randy Orton has successfully used his faction to the end (the Legacy vs. Triple H year). I do like that most wrestlers don't take it too personally when a friend eliminates them though. It'd be lame if every tage team broke up just cause of the Rumble.
