I had a few ideas for Rumble-themed threads leading up to the PPV, but things have been busy with work lately and I just couldn't be bothered to make a thread. Life is hard, right?
Anyways, there's still time for this one, and since the Royal Rumble is this Sunday, I can at least throw this out at ya;
Favourite Royal Rumble match.
The rules are simple, in case the name doesn't spell it out, no runners-up, no honorable mentions, no "I couldn't choose between" or no joint-firsts. This is the thread where you suck it up and pick only one answer.
Here's mine:

The 2011 Royal Rumble!
Besides being the first, and only, 40-man Rumble match, everything about this one was so perfectly choreographed and scripted. There were a lot of story-based things going on, especially between CM Punk/Nexus/Corre/John Cena, and there wasn't any "generic wrestler enters and starts brawling". Every one came in with a specific spot. Hell, even Chavo Guerrero got a pop from the crowd!
There were so many awesome highlights, most notably the ending! Who wasn't marking out at the idea that Santino Marella could have potentially won the Rumble? It's a hefty seven minutes long, but this video pretty much is every highlight of that Rumble in one awesome video.
