2011 Royal Rumble changed to 40 participants

[mnvikingstwins]

WWE has confirmed the rumor. Will it just be to add more to the SD Nexus vs. Raw Nexus altercation that will likely be happening?

[codycar92]

Whaaaa? That's crazy. Especially considering they haven't even really announced any names for it yet (except Del Rio and Big Show). This should be fun though, especially since I'll be at the Rumble, live. :)

[mnvikingstwins]

Looks like Punk, Cena, and the Nexus are officially added

[karter90]

codycar in honor of you being there live, on behalf on everybody on this board

YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm sure most all of us are jealous. have fun and enjoy it!
sheamus, john morrison and the us champ DAINEL BRYAN seem to have been added too.

along with mark henry (thats a lot of beef)

[mnvikingstwins]

Who is the guy doing the Mark Henry commercial? And did they add all those other jobbers that came out there?

[karter90]

don't know about the jobbers, but the guy making the mark henry commerical is derrick bateman. he is daniel bryan's nxt rookie. i don't know about his wrestling skills but he's such a dork that he make db look like a cool guy.

i can say that. i'm a hugh daniel bryan fan.

check out the nxt videos on wwe.com and watch bryan and batemans double date with the bellas. one video is them two getting ready for the date and then another video over the date. funny stuff.

40 is to many.

[Jdbuzz44]

40 waters down the competition and match in my opinion...

Its probably just gonna be for one year so all the Nexus members can get in..I hope
