Best Royal Rumble of the last decade?

**The Franchise** · 01-14-2010, 01:28 PM

With the Rumble coming up, I've been watching a lot of the past ones. The Rumble is good shit.

The 2000s had some pretty solid ones and overall almost all of them were decent or better. This is for the Rumble match ONLY not the entire card.
Which one was the best in your opinion? and WHY?

2000
WINNER: THE ROCK
Last Eliminated: THE BIG SHOW
Rock's controversial win, Too Cool dance, bunch of over mid-carders something that is unheard of in todays WWE...

2001
WINNER: STONE COLD
Last Eliminated: Kane
Kane dominating everything, The Bros of Destruction killing Scotty 2 Hotty, Honky Tonk man, Drew Carey, Rock lasting over 30 mins, Bloody Austin, the build to Rock/Austin starts etc

2002
WINNER: TRIPLE H
Last Eliminated: Kurt Angle
Austin eliminating multiple people at once, "WHAT?", Triple H's entrance which was probably longer than 90 seconds, MR PERFECT!

2003
WINNER: BROCK LESNAR
Last Eliminated: The Undertaker
Rapper Cena days, Jericho/Michaels stuff, Lesnar dominates everyone at the end and sneaks one past Taker

2004
WINNER: CHRIS BENOIT
Last Eliminated: The Big Show
Lotta big names in the ring at all times here, Lesnar/Goldberg build, Benoit going the distance/the epic battle with Show at the end

2005
WINNER: BATISTA
Last Eliminated: John Cena
Eddie/Benoit to kick it off, Paul London destroyed by Snitsky, Cena/Batista ending with Vince hurting himself and sitting on his ass while ordering people to restart the match

2006
WINNER: REY MYSTERIO
Last Eliminated: Randy Orton
HHH almost goes the distance, Rey is the big time underdog win, RVD returns

2007
WINNER: THE UNDERTAKER
Last Eliminated: Shawn Michaels
Epic Taker/HBK battle at the end, just really interesting throughout... possibly the most unpredictable one other than 2008

2008
WINNER: JOHN CENA
Last Eliminated: Triple H
HBK/Taker start it off, solid people in the ring throughout, CENA RETURNS, MSG marks out....pretty exciting finish (even though people hate Cena, it was exciting because it was really a toss up over who'd win)

2009
WINNER: RANDY ORTON
Last Eliminated: Triple H
I didn't watch this one but apparently it sucked. Orton wins, Legacy dominates probably?

Who you got?!
