    apparently Anderson was the only one officially under an NJPW contract so I'm not sure if he's available just yet...

    but that did just made me think of whether we'll see any NXT peeps come up for this...maybe a Balor appearance? or how about Samoa Joe or the newly signed Austin Aries?

    I was surprised to "Old school" wrestlers were brought back for the Rumble? No Hacksaw, no DDP, not even a Dudley boy like last year? That's what I always like about the Rumble...seeing who they dig up out of the woodwork for it.

    Hacksaw appeared a few years back at the comic book shop where I do a Sunday shift every week. People brought 2x4's for him to autograph. Pretty cool.

    And Rowdy Roddy Piper appeared a few weeks before his death. It was on a Saturday and I missed that event, but from all accounts he was fantastic with the fans/customers. Stayed an extra 20 minutes beyond his contracted time to get through everyone waiting in line for a photo and some talk time.

    Rikishi was supposed to appear a few weeks back but his handler got pissed about some things he heard people say when he scouted out the shop before the scheduled appearance. They drove off without saying a word. I couldn't believe it. lol

    There were only about ten people waiting to see him, but still.

    I saw a fan video of AJ's entrance-which was great since they were not focused on the entrance during the PPV until he had already come out-as soon as the crowd saw the word PHENOMENAL on the big screen they went nuuuuutttttssssss

    I, too, was a little miffed at there being no "old school" entrants-but I also was looking at the people lacking from the rumble on the current roster-there were a good handful of wrestlers who did double duty that night-why not let in more of those who didn't already have a match earlier in the evening?

    and WTF with Kofi's exit??? you get in the fun Kofi spot and then you don't even know he's been eliminated b/c you have too much nonsense going on with Reigns getting beaten down by the EU then you find out Kofi was eliminated and get a replay

    and can we PLEASE do away with outsiders being able to eliminate active competitors? most ridiculous thing ever-it's been going on for a while now and I still don't like it
