(READ)(&)(REVIEW)
WWE ring announcer Justin Roberts was in the center of the ring, ready to do his job.
Justin Roberts: Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for the FanFiction Royal RUMBLE MAAATCH!
The crowd screamed with excitement.
Justin Roberts: Now, before we begin, we must now remind you of the revamped rules for this match. Instead of having just the entrants #1 and #2 starting off, it will be the first four entries. Every 2 minutes. more participants will appear in the order that they drew. This will continue until all 80 superstars have entered the ring. Elimination is only counted by being thrown over the top rope, with both feet landing on the floor. In addition, for those who have already been eliminated will be able to qualify for a Rumble Redemption Flag hanging off at the pole near the commentary teams.
A camera showed a flagpole near the announce tables that had five flags wrapped
Justin Roberts: With those flags, you can gain an opportunity to re-enter the Royal Rumble. However, those who are eliminated can only get one flag. If you are eliminated again, there are no more tries. The last person standing in the ring will be declared the winner of the 2013 FanFiction Royal Rumble, and will be given the grand prize of one HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS!
The crowd went crazy again, but soon got quiet so they could wait for the first entrant to appear. However, the sound of static managed to
SIERRA-HOTEL-INDIA-ECHO-LIMA-DELTA
SHIELD
Upon hearing those words through the static, the crowd knew this was going to be bad.
(Song playing: The Shield's WWE entrance theme by Jim Johnston (no title for the song has been released yet))
Shield member Dean Ambrose emerged from the MSG crowd that was booing him out. These fans knew what Ambrose and the Shield had done in the WWE om the past few months since Survivor Series last November, but
Entrant #1: Dean Ambrose
Justin Roberts: Introducing the superstar who drew #1, from Cincinatti, Ohio, weighing in at 225 pounds, representing the Shield, Dean AMBROSE!
Ambrose jumped over the barricade and walked up the steel steps, into the ring.
Jim Ross: Dean Ambrose is a member of the stable Shield, which has been dominant over people like Ryback, Randy Orton and Team Hell No in the WWE.
Tazz: It might be a problem to survive for Ambrose, considering he's the first entrant, and people who enter early are more likely to get eliminated than all the rest.
The Shield's theme was soon cut off by the sound of a rocket soaring down into the ground.
(Next song playing: The Beaten Path by Dale Oliver)
Justin Roberts: And introducing the man who drew #2, from Hell's Kitchen, New York, weighing in at 326 pounds, Bully Ray!
Entrant #2: Bully Ray
The New York badass walked down the entrance aisle, entering his first FanFiction Royal Rumble match, as the crowd responded with a huge pop, as Bully Ray lived in New York, deeming him a crowd favorite for this match.
Jerry Lawler: Bully Ray, formerly Bubba Ray Dudley of WWE fame, has actually been an extremely tough athlete over his entire career!
Michael Cole: He, along with former partner Devon Dudley, won tag team gold every now and then, in WWE, TNA and even back in WCW!
Tazz: Well, he should better watch out, because in a Royal Rumble, you'll never know if someone could throw you out of the ring, especially if your back is turned!
Bully Ray entered the ring, just as his entrance theme faded, and another soon began.
Prepare yourself!

Justin Roberts: And now, entering at #3, from Hollywood, California, weighing in at 209 pounds, please welcome acting legend Johnny Cage!
Entrant #3: Johnny Cage from Mortal Kombat
Johnny Cage came out and pumped up the crowd as he ran down the entrance ramp, taking little time to make it to the ring, as he showed off his fighting skills with some flips and kicks both outside and inside the ring.
Joey Styles: Man, this guy can show off and make it look awesome!
Michael Cole: I should probably see one of his movies some time, considering how popular Cage is among the fans.
Jerry Lawler: Yeah, me too.
Tazz: Me three.
(Next song playing: The Green Day cover of the Simpsons theme)
Justin Roberts: And finally, making his way to the ring as entrant #4, from Springfield in somewhere in the United States, weighing in at 263 pounds, Homer Simpson!
Entrant #4: Homer Simpson from The Simpsons
Homer walked out onto the ramp, feeling a tad nervous, as he might end up on the short end of the stick in this Royal Rumble, considering his entry number. He tried to get himself back together, as he high-fived the crowd, entered the ring with a can of Buzz Cola, and met up with the three other participants starting off the match.
Michael Cole: Homer Simpson is the only person out of these four to have been in the previous Royal Rumble match from 2011.
Tazz: Yeah. He didn't last long, as he entered at #5, but got eliminated by John Cena not once, but twice in the same match!
Jim Ross: Let's not forget to mention that Homer has little experience in the ring, let alone a wrestling ring.
The bell rang as several referees (Earl Hebner, Charles Robinson, Brian Hebner and Mike Chioda) surrounded ringside, ready to call this Royal Rumble down the middle.
Note: For those who didn't know, there are referees present during the Royal Rumbles and battle royals in the WWE; they make sure people have been officially eliminated if they are thrown over the top rope, with both feet landing on the floor.
Joey Styles: Here we go! The 80-man Royal Rumble begins!
Bully Ray targeted Dean Ambrose as Homer Simpson squared off against Johnny Cage. Ray and Ambrose locked up at the top right corner (left of the entrance ramp) and soon separated. Bully kicked Ambrose in the gut seconds later, and then whipped him across the ring, to the bottom left corner. Homer noticed Ambrose flying at his direction, and threw himself onto Cage. Simpson and Johnny managed to roll back onto their feet, in which Homer planted the movie star with a sloppy DDT.
Michael Cole: The Royal Rumble is currently under way, but it's a bit of a slow start.
Tazz: It won't be long until someone gets eliminated, though!
Jim Ross: I know I don't want to miss a single minute of this!
Dean Ambrose hit the turnbuckles hard, as Bully Ray afterwards hit him with a clothesline in the corner. About 20 seconds have already passed in this FanFiction Royal Rumble match, as the first four Rumble entrants took some time trying to wear each other down for an easy elimination. Johnny Cage struck Homer with some hard knee drops to the face and chest after taking Simpson down with a dropkick. Meanwhile, Ray was lifting Dean over the top rope, trying to eliminate him, but to no avail.
Tazz: Bully Ray trying really hard to eliminate Ambrose!
Dean Ambrose and Johnny Cage soon ended up trading opponents, as Johnny faced off with Bully Ray, and Ambrose easily took down Homer Simpson. Time flew by as Ray beat Cage down with hard strikes to the back, and Ambrose tackled Homer into the bottom right corner. Less than a minute remained, as the four men continued to pounce on each other. Bully Ray brought Johnny Cage down with a sidewalk slam, as Homer Simpson unleashed a few hard strikes to Dean Ambrose, who was knocked down after three shots to the face.
Michael Cole: Ambrose is down! Homer seems pretty strong this time around!
Joey Styles: Well, Homer may not have a lot of experience with professional wrestling, but fighting is a different story; he's been in quite a bit of fist-fights in his life.
Mike Tenay: That's true, but his experience doesn't beat Bully Ray's or Johnny Cage's fighting skills.
Bully Ray went after Homer, knocking him down with a shoulder block into the bottom left corner. Ray then struck Homer in the chest with several knees in a row, as about 20 seconds remained before entrant #5 would appear.
Jerry Lawler: Won't be long now; #5 will be here soon!
Bully Ray, Dean Ambrose, Johnny Cage and Homer Simpson; all four of these men hungry for a victory. Soon enough, another participant will get their shot at the 100,000 dollar grand prize. The countdown began at 15...
14! 13! 12! 11! 10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! *BZZT!*
Entrant #5: John Cena
Michael Cole: Oh, here we go!
Joey Styles: Here comes the champ!
Jim Ross: I never knew Cena would be in this match this early!
John Cena appeared at the center of the stage, doing his salute right before making a full-speed sprint down to the ring. Most of the crowd, mostly children up to pre-teen and women, tore the roof off of the Madison Square Garden arena, while the rest of the crowd took their time to boo John, as he raced into the ring.
Jerry Lawler: Ready or not, here comes Cena!
Tazz: He's gonna go into a war tonight!
Once he got, Cena began a variant of his Five Moves of Doom sequence, which mainly focused on one person most of the time, except this time, all four of the other entrants were caught in it. Cena dove at Johnny Cage with a shoulder strike, knocking him down, and then performed another one to Homer, and then one to Dean. John then caught Bully Ray from behind and slammed him with the spin-out back powerbomb.
Michael Cole: John Cena is already at his best right here!
John Cena prepared for the Five Knuckle Shuffle, and did the "You Can't See Me" taunt, but then Ambrose tried attacking him. However, Cena dodged a clothesline from the Shield member and slammed him with a fisherman suplex that followed a kick to the gut. The 10-time WWE Champion then bounced off the ropes, and did a double Five Knuckle Shuffle on both Bully Ray and Dean Ambrose, who were laid out in precise positions in the ring.
Michael Cole: Whoa!
Jerry Lawler: How many times have we seen a double Five Knuckle Shuffle?
Jim Ross: Not many times, that's for sure!
Homer tried jumping at Cena, who caught him in a backbreaker position and lifted him up for the Attitude Adjustment.
Mike Tenay: Uh-oh, Homer's in trouble!
However, Ambrose managed to recover enough from the Five Knuckle Shuffle to spear John down during his attempt.
Tazz: Whoa! A BIG tackle!
Joey Styles: I can't tell if that was a tackle or a spear! They're practically the same!
Dean Ambrose turned around after the tackle, but then Johnny bopped him on the jaw with a backflip kick, causing Ambrose to nearly flip onto his face. Thank God he was right near the bottom right turnbuckles, which he flew into.
Jim Ross: A big backflip!
Mike Tenay: That could break your jaw!
Michael Cole: Or your teeth!
John Cena was able to get up after 15 seconds of being down, as Bully Ray smacked Cage with a hard clothesline! Meanwhile, Homer managed to pound on Ambrose with closed fists while he was dazed. Cena went after Ray, knocking him into the top right corner with a dropkick, followed by a clothesline in the corner.
Michael Cole: Cena is rolling!
John tossed Ray away from the top right corner and climbed the top rope. After a few seconds of preparation, the Cenation leader jumped off, hitting Bully Ray with a leg drop that drove his face into the canvas.
Joey Styles: And a BIG leg drop from the top turnbuckle!
Tazz: What a manuever!
About 5 seconds later, Ambrose tried to ram Cena down once again, but the formerly-proclaimed Doctor of Thuganomics lifted Dean up and soon brought him down with the Attitude Adjustment.
Jim Ross: And an Attitude Adjustment to Ambrose!
Michael Cole: That was almost out of nowhere!
As action continued, Dean Ambrose slid out of the ring, trying to get out of his current situation, but John Cena noticed him and ran out under the ring, jumping him from behind. Luckily, neither Ambrose nor Cena were eliminated. Dean Ambrose and Cena continued to brawl at ringside, near the aisle, as Homer Simpson, Bully Ray, and Johnny Cage stayed in the ring. However, Cage decided to try to make a mark, so he walked through the ropes, and jumped onto and off the middle rope with a moonsault! He still was not eliminated due to not going over the top rope.
Jerry Lawler: Oh my!
Michael Cole: WHOA!
Jerry Lawler: ...Beautiful leap!
Mike Tenay: That was an amazing move!
Tazz: That's some X-Division-style action right there!
As Ambrose, Cage and Cena were laid out outside, Bully Ray attacked Homer in the ring. 30 seconds remained, as five entrants battled it out in this spectacular event.
Jerry Lawler: We're just a moment away from entrant #6!
Joey Styles: Oh man, the anticipation always drives us nuts in these kinds of match-ups!
Johnny Cage was the first to get up from the human pile at the bottom of the entrance ramp, as he recieved quite an ovation from the crowd for that high-risk spot he pulled off with 'DA GREATEST OF EAZE'! Sorry, I got a little carried away on that line. Meanwhile, in the ring, Homer Simpson managed to take a sip of the Buzz Cola he brought into the ring, and spat it in Bully Ray's face, leaving him open for a shot. Homer took the chance, and knocked Bully back with fist after hard, yellow fist. Just seconds remained until #6 would arrive.
10!...9!...8!...7!...6!...5!...4!...3!...2!...1! *BZZT!*
Entrant #6: Beavis
As the sound of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Alice Cooper played throughout the Garden, Beavis came out of the entrance stage with a can of sugary cola in his hand. He soon began drinking the entire can down, to an excellent ovation.
Michael Cole: *confused* Who the hell is that? I'm not even familiar with this guy. I've hardly watched a lot of TV back then to keep up with this people!
Joey Styles: He's none other than Beavis, one half of 'Beavis and ButtHead' on MTV. True legends and they're still going strong after 20 years! This is excitement as it's best!
Tazz: He's sure putting away that cola for sure. I don't even wanna know what happens to him when he's that hyper!
Jerry Lawler: I could run away from this guy, but I gotta stay with you guys for this exciting match!
Beavis went on a sugary rush, leaping over Cena and Ambrose, who were busy getting up, and landing in the ring Sin Cara-style. Johnny Cage, who had already entered the ring just as the buzzer hit, looked on with a 'WTF?' expression on his face, as Beavis began wearing his shirt like an eskimo hoodie, and pointed his arms upwards, turning into his clinically insane alter-ego, Cornholio.
Beavis/Cornholio: RAAAAAAAAAH! I am the Great Cornolio! Do you have TP? TP for my bunghole?
Johnny Cage was even more confused and, at the same time, horrified.
Michael Cole: W-what the hell did Beavis just say?
Jim Ross: I have no damn clue and quite frankly, I don't even want to know. Something about a butthole, I think.
Jerry Lawler: And TP does mean 'toliet paper', so...
Tazz: Does that mean he needs something to wipe his ass with? What, does he crap himself during his sugar drives?
Michael Cole: ...Did you really just say that right now?
Johnny Cage soon decided that he's had enough of Beavis's weird bullshit, so he split down on his legs and unleashed a hard right hand to Beavis's, or Cornholio's, crotch. The crowd, plus the commentators and outside officials, cringed with such impact, as the short freak grabbed his own nutsack in pain, screaming like a lunch whistle.
Joey Styles: Oh my GOD, that has to hurt!
Tazz: There's not a crotch un-groped after that strike!
Cage grabbed Beavis by his Metallica shirt, and dragged him over the top rope, and onto the floor, eliminating him as quick as possible.
Mike Tenay: Well, Beavis didn't really last long in this match
1st elimination: Beavis; Eliminated by Johnny Cage; Duration: 0:35
After landing on the padding at ringside, Beavis went bat-shit crazy and somehow managed tipped over one of the sets of steel steps with one hard push, before smacking the crap out of the referees surrounding the ring.
Michael Cole: Whoa-whoa, what the hell is he doing now?!
Jim Ross: He can't do that! Those are referees, for God's sake!
Joey Styles: He isn't taking elimination so well here!
Beavis continued to rampage, as he shook the ring posts, trying to tear them off, kicked the barricade over and over again, and even bitch-slapped a fan. Soon enough, the crazy teen ran around to the commentary tables, growling like a rabid dog, and tackled Michael Cole, attacking him with all his might. The all-around assault by Beavis caught so much attention that even the competitors, including John Cena and Dean Ambrose, who have re-entered the ring, are looking in the direction of the announce tables.
Jerry Lawler: Someone get security!
Joey Styles: Stop that freak! He's destroying the place!
And soon enough, yellow-jacket security guards began to take Beavis/Cornholio away through the crowd, to the nearest exit. Soon after Beavis was dragged out, less than minute remained before
Action re-continued in the ring, as Homer Simpson beat Bully Ray down like a corpse, and John Cena had a triple threat brawl with Johnny Cage and Dean Ambrose. Homer continued to deliver the punishment to Ray, but the hardcore New Yorker bounced back by pushing the yellow-skinned television icon away and catching him with an elbow in the face, followed by several more elbows to the forehead. Bully took some time to do an "'F' you" crotch chop before hitting one more elbow that knocked Homer down.
Mike Tenay: And Bully Ray hits the Bionic Elbow!
Jim Ross: That is a tribute to WWE legend, the 'American Dream' Dusty Rhodes!
Johnny Cage broke away from the brawl with Cena and Ambrose to think of a new plan on getting an advantage in this match. At the center of the ring, Bully Ray grabbed Homer in a full nelson position, and prepared for his world-famous 'Bubba Bomb', but when Dean Ambrose tried to hit John Cena with a steel chair that he got out right before entering the ring, Cena ducked it, and it inconvieniently hit Ray in the back, forcing him to let go of Homer.
Michael Cole: Whoa! What a miscalculated chair shot to Bully Ray!
Bully ended up on one knee for a brief moment as Johnny Cage climbed the bottom right turnbuckles. Cage targeted towards the New York superstar, but after leaping off for a stage dive, Bully managed to catch a glimpse, and caught him in mid-air with a Bubba Cutter out of nowhere!
Jerry Lawler: Oh my lord!
Tazz: Holy sh-holy Jesus!
Jim Ross: The Bubba Cutter in mid-air!
Michael Cole: How did he manage to do THAT?!
The movie star was pretty much almost knocked out cold for the moment, as Bully Ray tossed him over the top rope seconds later. However, Cage somehow held on, surprising Ray with a quick survival manuever. Johnny lifted himself back over the top rope, grabbed onto Bully's head with his legs, and pulled him over with a hurricanrana. However, Bully managed to hold on as Johnny re-entered the ring.
Michael Cole: Oh, that was too close for Bully Ray!
Jerry Lawler: I'm surprised he didn't end up on the floor!
Tazz: It was a close call, indeed!
Johnny Cage tried to fire up the crowd, only to get clotheslined from behind by Bully, who Cage thought he had eliminated. Meanwhile, John Cena kicked Dean Ambrose in the gut, took his chair, and smacked him on the back with it, as Homer Simpson tried not to get into any of the brawls around him, by sliding out of the ring and staying outside for the moment.
Jerry Lawler: Ohh, who's number 7?
Mike Tenay: The anticipation is making all of us anxious on who's next! We won't know unless we find out!
Tazz: Here's the countdown!
10!...9!...8!...7!...6!...5!...4!...3!...2!...1! *BZZT!*
Entrant #7: Daniel Bryan
Jerry Lawler: Oh man, here we go!
Michael Cole: Ladies and gentlemen, this is one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions Team Hell No, Daniel Bryan!
Mike Tenay: I've heard that this guy is a very technical wrestler and a submission speciallist!
The experienced young athlete ran down the ramp, briefly ignoring the "YES!" chants that filled the Garden, as he was focused on the prize of $100,000 to whoever wins this edition of the FanFiction Royal Rumble. However, Bully Ray managed to slow him down with a strike to the back of the head. Bully Ray tried to take down Johnny Cage and Daniel Bryan at the same time. Homer soon re-entered the ring, only for Ambrose to pounce him, as John Cena tried to target another one of the contestants.
Michael Cole: The Royal Rumble is always a treat, because you never know who could come out next!
The situation between Bully Ray and the team of Johnny Cage and Daniel Bryan had the two turn the tables on the resident table-smasher (Ray) with kicks to both of Ray's legs, bringing him down on his knees. D-Bry then proceeded to whip Bully with kicks to the chest, shouting "NO!" on every hit. After about 6 chest kicks, Bryan finally knocked Bully Ray down fully onto the mat with one last kick, this time to the side of his head.
Jerry Lawler: Ouch! That knocked Ray down on his face!
Tazz: Daniel Bryan is a very impressive superstar in the WWE, becoming a United States Champion, Tag Team Champion, Mr. Money in the Bank and World Heavyweight Champion in just the first couple of years on the main roster!
Jim Ross: He's one hell of an athlete, that's for sure! I can't see any other superstar at his level rising quicker in their career than a superstar like Daniel Bryan!
Daniel Bryan continued to wear down the Hell's Kitchen badass, as Johnny Cage went after Homer Simpson, and John Cena continued to have a brawl with Dean Ambrose. More than 30 seconds had soon passed by as the 6 contestants fought on as the New York City crowd rooted for the match-up. Homer smacked Cage with his Buzz Cola can, causing a bit of cola to splash out of the aluminum cylinder. (I'm a bit of a smartie, if you didn't know that already.), as Cena tackled Ambrose into the top left corner, afterwards tossing him over the top rope. Luckily, for the member of the Shield, Ambrose held on to the middle rope, already smart enough not to let himself get eliminated this early, despite entering at number 1.
Jim Ross: Whoa, that was a close one for Ambrose!
Mike Tenay: Those who enter at number 1 are bound to either last only a few minutes, or over a half hour.
Michael Cole: Well, for example, The Miz was the first entrant in the debut FanFiction Royal Rumble event; he didn't last long, however, as he was eliminated by Homer Simpson, who has entered at number 5 previously in that Rumble, and is in this match as entrant number 4.
The second edition of the FanFiction Royal Rumble was about to reach its 7th minute in just a couple of moments, as the six participants in the ring continued to try to eliminate each other. Homer tugged on Johnny Cage's head, trying to drag him over the top rope. Bully Ray was trying the same with Daniel Bryan at the bottom left corner, but the submission specialist tried for an opportunity by catching Bully's left arm, and swiftly setting up for a variation of the No Lock from the top rope, dragging Ray over the top rope as well, as Bryan sat on the top turnbuckle, pulling on Bully Ray's head. The crowd went insane, as they saw the submission finisher in action so suddenly.
Jim Ross: Oh my god!
Joey Styles: How is that even possible?!
Michael Cole: I've never seen a move like that be pulled off in that position!
Bully Ray tried to get out of the submission hold that was already sinched in, but Daniel kicked him in the head, knocking him out long enough to toss him over and out of the ring, eliminating him in a game-changing way.
2nd elimination: Bully Ray; Eliminated by Daniel Bryan; Duration: 7:18
Michael Cole: Oh no! Bully Ray's been eliminated!
Joey Styles: How does Daniel Bryan do that?!
Tazz: I have no idea, and I'm kinda afraid to ask, because someone like me could get injured from something like that!
Jim Ross: Well, whatever that was that got Bully Ray out did the trick, because he's out!
As Bully Ray tried to recollect himself before he left the moment, while catching a glimpse of the Rumble Redemption flagpole (probably plotting to come back later), Dean Ambrose shoved John Cena out of his way, ran at Daniel Bryan as quick as possible and tried to shove him off the turnbuckle and out of the ring to eliminate the superstar, but D-Bry managed to avoid the attack, and knock Ambrose down with a dropkick from the top rope. Cena then added injury to... well, more injury by dropping a fist on Ambrose's face, otherwise, to put it in another way, delivering another Five Knuckle Shuffle on the crazy rebel from the Shield.
Note: By the way, I liked that one moment in one of Cena's matches where he just spontaneously did the Five Knuckle Shuffle without bouncing off the ropes or doing the "You Can't See Me" taunt. I think he did that, I'm pretty sure.
Jerry Lawler: We are just moments away from the next countdown!
Mike Tenay: Who will be entrant #8?
Tazz: I can't WAIT to see who comes out next!
Joey Styles: Me neither!
It was a little hard to describe all of the details of what was going on in the match, but both Daniel Bryan and Dean Ambrose were still down after the bump, as John Cena slammed Johnny Cage with his flying arm drag. Homer Simpson was without an opponent once again, as about 20 seconds remained before entrant number 8 would appear. Soon enough, those 20 seconds felt like 10, as the countdown appeared again on the TitanTron.
10!...9!...8!...7!...6!...5!...4!...3!...2!...1! *BZZT!*
Entrant #8: James Rolfe aka The Angry Video Game Nerd
Jerry Lawler: Alright, here we go!
Michael Cole: Here comes another star who has appeared in the previous FanFiction Royal Rumble!
Mike Tenay: This is the third returning contestant so far!
The Nerd entered the ring almost immediately after the buzzer, and fired up the crowd. However, he was blindsided by Dean Ambrose, who managed to help himself up with the use of the ropes, and began beating down on James. John Cena's instincts quickly kicked in, and he attacked Ambrose from behind. Soon enough, Homer, Bryan and Cage dove in, resulting in a big dog pile, as everybody got a piece of Ambrose.
Mike Tenay: Whoa! Chaos is happening in the ring right now!
Tazz: Well, that escalated quickly!
After about 15 seconds of a scrambling pile of fighters going around the ring, the 6 currently standing competitors separated, calling for a brief time out. After 10 more seconds, Daniel Bryan kicked Dean Ambrose in the face, knocking him back into the bottom right corner. Afterwards, the Angry Video Game Nerd flipped the bird at Ambrose and whomped him in the face with his Power Glove hand. Dean was about to fall down, flat on his face and chest, but then John Cena lifted him up on his shoulders.
Michael Cole: John Cena's going for it!
Tazz: Dean Ambrose is in some hot water right now!
Cena was going for it, and then delivered it: a second Attitude Adjustment to Dean Ambrose. However, Johnny Cage came up from behind and kicked Cena on the back of the head with enough force to cause the wrestling megastar to front flip onto his back. Soon after, Homer smacked Cage down with a headbutt, only for Daniel Bryan to run at full-speed and dropkick Homer across the ring.
Michael Cole: And now everybody's going at each other!
Mike Tenay: This is a great match so far, and it's only going to get better when more and more competitors arrive!
Jim Ross: These kinds of Royal Rumbles are very exciting, and unpredictable as well!
Seconds later, the Angry Video Game Nerd kicked Bryan in the gut and slammed him on the top of his head with a hard DDT.
Jerry Lawler: DDT!
Joey Styles: Hopefully he doesn't get a concussion from one of those!
Around the same time AVGN knocked D-Bry down with the DDT, John Cena managed to get back up on his feet, still able to fight after taking close to 9 minutes of punishment. Cena lifted the Nerd up on his shoulders, preparing for yet another Attitude Adjustment to the gamer, but Johnny Cage bounced off the ropes and tackled Cena into the top right corner, also sending James over the top rope. Cage then sent Cena over the top rope as well, but both Cena and the Nerd managed to survive for the moment.
Michael Cole: Whoa! A spear into the corner!
Joey Styles: John Cena and the Angry Video Game Nerd almost got eliminated at the same time!
Tazz: I'm surprised they held on; they've taken quite a bit of pain from each other and the other competitors!
Michael Cole: Well, it may be likely that the next person to enter will have a bit of an advantage over the others, especially if it's a big superstar!
About 30 seconds remained as Dean Ambrose, Daniel Bryan and Homer Simpson tried hard to get up, while John Cena and AVGN took some time trying to re-enter the ring.
Jerry Lawler: Oh man! Moments away! Who's number 9?!
Joey Styles: We're just about to find out!
10!...9!...8!...7!...6!...5!...4!...3!...2!...1! *BZZT!*
Entrant #9: The Ultimate Warrior
Michael Cole: Holy sh-
Jim Ross: Ohhhhh boy this is going to get even more exciting!
Joey Styles: Is it?! Is it him?!
Tazz: IT IS!
Mike Tenay: I don't believe my eyes!
Jerry Lawler: It's the Ultimate WARRIOR! He's going to send those souls in the ring to the endless abyss!
Seconds after the buzzer, the extremely wild and insane warrior emerged from the double-doors at the entrance stage appeared, as pyrotechnics shot out from the top of the stage set. It was time for the Ultimate Warrior to shine in this Royal Rumble match.
