Basic Info
The Royal Rumble is the WWE's January pay-per-view. Aside from the actual Royal Rumble match itself, the card usually features regular matches like any other event, including a WWE Championship match.Royal Rumble Entry
30 wrestlers draw numbers prior to the match, and those who draw numbers one and two enter the ring first to start the "Rumble". At timed intervals (it has varied from 90 seconds to two minutes), another wrestler enters the fray as his/her drawn number dictates. This continues until all 30 wrestlers have entered the ring.Elimination
A wrestler is eliminated only after being thrown over the top rope and both feet hit the arena floor. If a wrestler is thrown through the ropes, or if only one foot hits the floor, he/she is still active in the match.The Winner
The winner of the Royal Rumble is the last person left in the ring after the 29 others have been eliminated. The winner thereby earns a shot at a WWE world title (either the WWE Championship or the World Heavyweight Championship) at the WrestleMania pay-per-view in late March/early April.WWE.com: Royal Rumble 101 (January 14, 2008)-
