Royal Rumble/Battle Royal winners, losers and Entrants

[The_Monk]

Hi there so I've got a PPV coming up where I want to do a royal rumble type match.

 

My question is when setting up the match can you determine who enters when? And also can you determine who the last couple of competitors are so you have a winner and the last loser?

 

Many thanks

As stated above, you cannot choose who enters when (you'll have to use your imagination). But there are the following notes for Battle Royals: Winner, Runner-Up, Final Four, Most Eliminations and Iron Man (which is for whoever you want to be in there the longest).

You can even add tainted win if you fancy repeating the Austin victory in 1997.

Which match aim do you think would suit a Battle Royal?

<p>Unless you were doing a thirty man battle royal with only top 50 ranked wrestlers, 'Spectacle' would not work even though you may think it's appropriate.</p><p> </p><p>

From my understanding, a 'Spectacle' would be something like the Wrestlemania 20 triple threat. Two (or in this case, three) extremely talented, over stars putting on an amazing story-driven match, but without going into the territory of 'Epic' (which is where Rock vs Austin or Taker vs HHH HIAC belong). The Royal Rumble, in my opinion, is never this. It has it's spectacle moments, sure...but then it also has it's comedy spots, it's 'Monster of the year' elimination-fest and the common rest-hold portions so the 'iron-men' get a break. Rumble is story-driven, all the way.</p>
