Royal Rumble 2008
Reviewer: Tom Leins
Issue 105 July 2008
Review: The 21st annual Royal Rumble took place at Madison Square Garden, New York in January. Interestingly, it was the first WWE pay-per-view broadcast in high definition. Wrestlers from Raw, ECW and Smackdown draw lots to enter a 30-man ‘battle royale’. The last man standing earns the right to take a shot at the championship belt of his choice at this summer’s ‘Wrestlemania’. Familiar faces The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels are the first two men in the ring, but do they have what it takes to go the distance, or will they be usurped by late entrants like John Cena and Triple H? Ancient WWE alumni Jimmy Snuka, Roddy Piper and Mick Foley even enter the fray midway through. Bonus matches featuring the likes of Ric Flair, Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho provide added value.
