New entrants announced for the Royal Rumble

[KingofOldSchool]

Snitsky
The Miz
John Morrison

They all won matches at house shows recently to "qualify" for the Rumble.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Hardcore Holly did the same, as have Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore.

For those wondering, Snitsky defeated Drew McIntyre, Hardcore Holly defeated Trevor Murdoch, Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore defeated John Morrison & The Miz, John Morrison & The Miz defeated Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore.

[Verbose Minch]

Foley also owned shit. Foley is god.

[SammyG]

Cena gonna show up definitely at the RR.

[Mr. Nerfect]

So the confirmed list of Royal Rumble participants is as follows:

RAW:
1. Umaga
2. Snitsky
3. Hardcore Holly
4. Mick Foley

SmackDown!:
5. Jimmy Wang Yang
6. Shannon Moore
7. Hornswoggle

ECW:
8. John Morrison
9. The Miz

As for who else will pad out the other 21 places, it would seem fair to assume the main event guys without Rumble matches already confirmed will make it in: Shawn Michaels, Mr. Kennedy, The Undertaker, Batista, Kane, The Great Khali, Big Daddy V, Mark Henry, Finlay, Shelton Benjamin and seeing as Hardcore Holly is in, Cody Rhodes will probably follow. That leaves about 10 spaces left. Could be a pretty good Rumble.

That's my list minus Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore. I guess the WWE chose not to recognise their win, or Miz & Morrison took their spots.

[Fox]

why is Foley in the Rumble?

[The Optimist]

Ratings.

[Londoner]

Man, that list sucks.

[Jeritron]

Man, that list sucks.

Yea, but you know HHH, Batista, Jericho, HBK, Kennedy, MVP, Taker and the rest of the uppermidcard is gonna end up in there.

<font color=goldenrod>Batista and Undertaker have been added on WWE.com

I'm assuming something happened on Smackdown to lead to them being entered</font>

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>According to WWE.com. Carlito and Santino Marella are competing in a tag team qualifying match on Friday at a house show. Their opponents aren't given so its safe to assume whose winning that. Good, get to see if my Santino Bushwhacker Luke award prediction comes true</font> :cool:
