This was a start-to-finish excellent pay per view! Lots of surprises and funny bits (and females) :)

I LOVED The swimsuit contest MINUS THE MAE YOUNG STUFF, that was terrible and shouldn't have happened. Terri Runnels was drop-dead HOT, she should have been the winner.

Probably one of the most brutal (and best) matches ever at any Royal Rumble was Triple H against Mick Foley from 2000. This match, along with the Rumble stole the show. A complete BLOODBATH, with barbed-wire, thumbtacks, handcuffs, trash cans, it was insane.

The royal rumble match was solid from start to finish. In a neat segment, Scotty 2 Hotty enters the ring when only Grandmaster Sexay and Rikishi are left, then the lights go out, and the spotlight is on them, and then they dance for a few minutes, heh heh.

Bob Backlund makes a surpise entrance but doesn't last long. The Road Dogg has a hilarious tactic for not getting thrown over the top rope, clinging in the corner to the ring ropes, coming out to attack, then go back again, lol. Also, those little Japanese guys keep running to the ring and getting eliminated throughout the entire match, and they're not even in the rumble, heh heh.

Top 5 in endurance:

#10 Test ------- 26:17
#12 Gangrel ---- 23:19
#9 Big Bossman - 22:47
#19 Road Dogg -- 19:02

#11 B Bulldog -- 15:22
#16 Crash Holly- 14:55
#13 Edge ------- 14:48
#24 The Rock --- 14:43
#21 Val Venis -- 11:48
#23 Hardcore Holly - 11:48
#22 Albert ----- 11:23
#26 Big Show --- 11:07

Lots of guys in this one for a long time, one reason it never got boring. Just solid from start to finish. Nothing wrong with that.

Winner - The Rock
