Guest Jung Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Oh, well I'd always heard that they know who they eliminate, who eliminates them and how long they are in for, but the rest is just on the fly. I never thought they plan every single little thing surely? Its surely just eliminations and timing of them? Anything imbetween is just filler?

Guest The Beltster Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 The time frame, entry positions, eliminations etc are all mapped out as are certain spots, but the rest is just called in the ring. I mean, really, what happens in Rumble's barring people latching onto the ropes trying to look like they are attempting to throw guys out? No real moves, no real spots, no action. You get the comedy spot, the big fat guy being eliminated by everybody else in the ring, the surprise elimination, the devious elimination by somebody from outside the ring, the guy who clings on for an hour by the skin of his teeth and the occasional WrestleMania main event seeds being planted. You never really get any decent in-ring work, its impossible due to the sheer amound of people such a small space. All that being said, with the talent these days being lost when everything isnt scripted, I'd hazzard a guess that its alot more drawn up beforehand than it used to be.

Naitch 207 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Has Patterson booked every one? I know he took time off a few years ago but I think they were still using him to book the Rumble. Part of me thinks Russo laid out the 99 Rumble because it has his crappy fingerprints all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Great Ahmar Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I'm currently watching Heat, Supercrazy is facing some jobber who is awful. His offence is dreadful, his selling is beyond terrible. Just thought you'd like to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
