Triple H; NOTE: Triple H's time of 49:28 beats Rey Mysterio by one second, and Rey lasted 49:27.

 

 

Is that from the time they were announced to the time they were eliminated, or the time they stepped into the ring?

Damn it...if my calculations are right and I had included Duggen and Goldust in the Rumble like I initially wanted to I would have been tied for first. :angry:

Hunter's time is from the time the buzzer went off until the time of his elimination, as once the buzzer goes off he's considered officially in the match.

 

Standings should be forthcoming.

That kinda gives HHH an advantage then, doesn't it? Rey was officially in the match when he was announced, but I'm assuming his timer didn't begin until Morrison also entered and the bell rang, right?

CubbyBr and the Ghost of bps21 are the only ones who got all five winners correct, as most of us had Phoenix winning the women's match and ending up with four out of five. Thus, lots of shakeup in the standings.

 

Points for the night:

 

1. the Ghost of bps 21 (16)

2. CubbyBr (15)

3. Exslade ZX (12)

4 (tied). King Cucaracha, The Franchise and Broward83 (10 each)

7 (tied). haws bah gawd, Vampiro69, Enigma, fazzle, and Canadian Destroyer (9 each)

12 (tied). Diamonddust, JHawk, Ed Wood Caufield, Jebus, and Aero (8 each)

17 (tied). 6foot9, korndogg123, and daileyxplanet (7 each)

20. MillenniumMan831 (6)

21 (tied). DMann2003, RepoMan, and Toxxic (5 each)

 

Eight no shows this time by my count.

Also correct, because the match doesn't officially start until the bell rings.

 

Something like that is a judgment call. Obviously WWE will claim Santino broke "Warlord's" record for quickest elimination. But if we start from the time entered in the ring, then Ric Flair didn't actually quite hit the one hour mark in 1992.

 

I was actually considering calling it a tie based off of that grey area (and because WWE can never get it straight themselves either), but nobody actually picked Mysterio as the answer to that question.

Man, I changed my mind on those bonus questions so many times before posting my final decisions. I'm just surprised the WWE would put so much cannon foddder in this year when jobbers have been left out in the past for more star power. RVD was one hell of a surprise. But why are they holding up Umaga's return? And wow, so much star power going in early. And I'll bet nobody expected half of the people to be left when #30 entered.

Someone do me a favor, and remind me of how long Chris Benoit lasted in the 2004 Rumble? I swear I remember it being over an hour, although I realize Rey Mysterio was the new holder of the iron man accolade for obvious reasons.

bps, I'm with you on that. As bad as people say TNA is, they seem to be less predictable at times, especially on the PPV.

What will happen if, at the end of the season, there is a tie for first place?

 

I hadn't considered that. Any suggestions?

What if, in the case of a tie, you just go back and add up all of the individual points for both people, excluding the five bonus points for correctly guessing full PPV's? Person that has the most individual points wins.

Split the prize?

 

 

As a non-participant, I support this idea. Especially if one of the winners goes to the other's house and ambushes him and steals his part of the prize ala Bad News Brown at WrestleMania IV.

Since splitting the prize seems to be getting the most support, that's probably the way it'll go.

 

I really do not anticipate a tie, but it is certainly a possiblity with PPVs to go in season one.
