The last 10 minutes were genuinely engaging. Proper 5 star material. Additionally, if you want to give Scott Hall another shot, you could do an all WCW rumble.
To watch Kevin Nash step in the ring and immediately get floored by a tornado punch from Bushwacker Luke just warmed my heart…lmao…He just ate that and dropped so dramatically. Hilarious!!!
Ricky J, I’m a new subscriber around here but your content is super refreshing and unique.. I appreciate all the work you put into these videos, keep up the hard work!! Shoutout to NB Canada baby
I love these! Absolute pleasure hearing "that's a great *insert wrestler*" every time 😂🥰 and from now on I will only ever refer to Gangrel as "Gang rail" 😂👍
@@RickyJSports aw bro don't apologise, I absolutely love it 😁 have a great weekend too man, awesome content and I was born '84 so it's brilliant having all these throwbacks to my childhood years 🥰
Great rumble as usual. Amazing performance by Luke!! Marty fought his heart out and put on a great show! Is there a way to turn off the cinematic move zoom ins? we miss alot of eliminations to those close ups.
I LOVED Demolition! The masks they wore to the ring were legit the coolest thing I’d ever seen. I remember the Survivor Series where they teamed w Hogan and Jake the Snake was like the greatest moment for me lol
When I was a kid, the Bush Wackers were known as the Sheep Herders. Like the Legion of Doom who were known as the Road Warriors... both teams were Heel that almost never lost and became Face teams in the WWF.
Only 2 minutes in so far, I get some teams don’t make the cut, being there’s only 30 spots. That being said, I’ll like this video when I see a Hardy boy. Lmao 🤣 Great videos man! Awesome entertainment.
Nice, I somehow missed you posted this one the other day.... a lot of camo pants in this one..... Bushwhacker Luke definitely needs to be in the "guys who didn't win, but did really well" Rumble... Thanks!
I was also a big fan of Marty Jannetty. Saw him in one of the 4-4 Survivor Series live in 1995, when Bret Hart beat Diesel for the championship. And other than Bret Hart winning and taking something like six powerbombs after the fact, the only other thing I remember was Jannetty being the last survivor of his team, being down 2-1, getting to 1-1 before losing to the 1-2-3 Kid. It's a shame that his career kind of went nowhere, but I always loved watching him wrestle. And I too, enjoyed him more than Shawn Michaels.
Broke my heart to see Luke fight Butch, but you have to remember Australians are always drunk on Foster's and roo meat. They didn't know who they were beating...
I love how you can tell how much wrestling meant/means to you. Love to watch people make content they care about and enjoy doing themselves. It’s the most natural that way and feels more genuine which is what I love to see from YT channels. Edit:typos
I agree when you said Ax of Demolition was the leader & he always cut a promo very well. My All-time favorite match of Demolition had to be Summer Slam 1990 vs. The Hart Foundation - 2 out of 3 Falls for Tag Team Championship. Their Entrance Music was kickass too! Also was very cool seeing them face off in the 1989 Royal Rumble! 😁
I always liked axe the best. I thought crush was cool when he came in and I always dug smash too but axe always seemed like the captain. I remember being kinda sad when axe was gone, Demolition wasn't the same when he was gone
This was INSANELY good! Cousin Luke’s show of heart and endurance was so unexpected. And those final 3 put on a quality back and forth WAR. Breaks my heart every time I see Scott Hall with such a weak performance. How about an all Mark Calaway Rumble? Could have Mean Mark Callous, The American Badass, the character he played in Suburban Commando, the time he dressed as Kane, the time he did a Dirty Harry skit, himself now in retirement and then multiple different styles of Taker from his 30+ years with the company.
The six-man tag I remember was the three-man Demolition vs the Legion of Doom/Road Warriors and the Ultimate Warrior, which prompted the following exchange from the commentary after a big brawl: Lord Alfred Hays: "I don't know who the legal men in the ring are." Gorilla Monsoon: "It's the guys in the face paint."
Initially a feature called ‘AI pairing’ was meant to be in the royal rumble back in 2k18 where tag teams would team up but unfortunately it was scrapped for some reason
Some Rumble ideas: - Hollywood Actors - Managers (including Commentators, Bischoff, McMahon & guys like Prichard etc) - WCW vs NWO Rumble - 80s & 90s Rumble - ECW, ROH, NWA, TNA, AEW all in one Rumble Its kind of weird that escpecially for a canadian like you to be a Rockers Fan instead of the Hard Foundation 😂 I remember when WWE was back in Montreal with Shawn Michaels and how he got booed and them they played Brets theme... but Shawn just fooled them all... I think it was even twice when he did that ... he got so much heat from the fans... incredible! 😂
Ricky J Sports I have been watching these wonderful Royal Rumbles in the order shown in your playlist and enjoying the heck out of them. You stated that Haku was a member of the Islanders. He was also part of The Colossal Connection a tag team of André the Giant and Haku!!
Trivia: When Butch and Luke were rookies they would wrestle each other a lot, as well as being a tag team, because there weren't a lot of wrestlers where they were.
I hadn't play a wrestling game since the ps2; watching your rumbles made me want to play again, so I bought this game too. and ... I'm having fun ! Can't wait for the ultimate winner rumble !!!
Fellow Canadian (and Torontoian).... love the videos. Would love to see a all WCW rumble and/or an all WCW tag team rumble and/or an all faction rumble.
A lot of teams from the 80's and 90's were in this but Ricky didn't include The Rogeau Brothers , The Bolsheviks , Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham , Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff , Dream Team , Los Conquistadors , Brain Busters , Strike Force , Twin Towers , Doom , Young Stallions Can - Am Connection and many more .
Hey Ricky j I went to a WWE LIVE EVENT for my first time and it was awesome bro. I took a pics with Drew McIntyre and seen some good action bro. Just thought I share since we're playing WWE 2k22.
Tama is actually Rikishi's brother, competed as the Tonga Kid, and other names. Umaga is also a brother. Insanely confusing bloodlines in that family.....
it's funny that mentioned about ai helping partners because old old games if was in a tag team had high chance of teamwork if both in rumble and less chance they would target partner unless they were heels
The last 10 minutes were genuinely engaging. Proper 5 star material. Additionally, if you want to give Scott Hall another shot, you could do an all WCW rumble.
Love this videos we need to have a jobbers royal rumbles
I like that idea.
Haha! Great idea! Barry Horowitz, Brooklyn Brawler, Tony Devito, etc.
And he got to use Heath Slater
Yep & have Barry Horowitz, Brooklyn Brawler, Iron Mike Sharp all in that one 😂
The Job Squad should be the final 5 with Duane Gill the winner
man Scott hall cant catch a break!! he comes in and goes out, I want him to win everytime.
Yeah. That first one he was a beast. Now he gets two great draws and is immediately eliminated. Oomph
Right bad guy comes in n and goes right out had me laughing my ass off
Maybe WWE knew something by never putting him in an actual Rumble match...
Hey, let's think outside the box. Just institute a 30-man Scott Hall rumble.
The way you say "Gangrel" is so great. Had me smiling every time you said it. "Gang-rail seems like he's stuck in the corner." lol
BRET is my favorite. Jericho is second fav
Bushwacker Luke entering 11 and lasting til final 5. Amazing.
Lets give it up for Luke, showed so much heart in there.
I watch these for the ridiculous characters at this point. Thanks for the production value.
Stumbled on these Rumbles a couple weeks back and now I have to watch every single one, lol.
I'm more and more impressed with that Winslow run 🤣 these are so much fun
I know man I can't find my groove
Who could forget that time Marty Jannetty jumped through the barbershop window like a coward to get away from Shawn?
are you blind!!!! lmao
To watch Kevin Nash step in the ring and immediately get floored by a tornado punch from Bushwacker Luke just warmed my heart…lmao…He just ate that and dropped so dramatically. Hilarious!!!
Haha it was epic
Getting flashbacks to the "Finger Poke of Doom" .
You jinx at least one guy a rumble!! Lol RIP Scott Hall
Ricky J, I’m a new subscriber around here but your content is super refreshing and unique.. I appreciate all the work you put into these videos, keep up the hard work!! Shoutout to NB Canada baby
Thx my brother!!
We need Chris Jericho in one of these rumbles
I love these! Absolute pleasure hearing "that's a great *insert wrestler*" every time 😂🥰 and from now on I will only ever refer to Gangrel as "Gang rail" 😂👍
Haha thx big T!! Sorry I always called him that and no one corrected me until this video was made. Lol have a great weekend.
@@RickyJSports aw bro don't apologise, I absolutely love it 😁 have a great weekend too man, awesome content and I was born '84 so it's brilliant having all these throwbacks to my childhood years 🥰
I remember when Axe and Smash pulled 1 and 2. Loved that shit as a kid! The rumble was always way more important to me than Wrestlemania...
Yep it was 1990 huh
@@clintsaines9274 can't remember, seems like a lifetime ago lol. That sounds about right though...
@@clintsaines9274 Ax and Smash got 1 and 2 in 1989 . In 1990 Ted DiBiase got number 1 and Koko B Ware got number 2 .
@@robertclark2253 ok knew it was close. They showed them picking out the numbers and they looked at each other weird
Best part of the rumble
Animal almost got it!
Great idea with the tag teams! Party Marty is the man 😂
Animal should have won. LOD was one of my favorite tag teams. I always wanted the shoulder pads with spikes. Great ending. Happy Easter.
That "Rockers" Shawn Michaels looked more like Ricky Morton for the "Rock 'N' Roll Express" Lol
Haha
Understand the exclusions, but still love all the of the entrants. This is the best series going on yt
Haku deserves an honorable mention for 6 eliminations.
And for being the most legit tough guy of the group!
The broods music was epic
I'm a huge Bushwhackers fan and seeing Luke go for so long really put a smile on my face.
Haha he will be in another Rumble next week!!
Awesome video - that golden age I’d tag teams was totally my era, with the Bulldogs being my favorite.
Great rumble as usual. Amazing performance by Luke!! Marty fought his heart out and put on a great show! Is there a way to turn off the cinematic move zoom ins? we miss alot of eliminations to those close ups.
Yes! Thank you for giving us this video
“My heart breaks everytime 💔” lol this dude commentary is golden
I LOVED Demolition! The masks they wore to the ring were legit the coolest thing I’d ever seen. I remember the Survivor Series where they teamed w Hogan and Jake the Snake was like the greatest moment for me lol
Here comes the Ax, here comes the Smasher....
@@erict7840 the demolition, walking disaster!

Edge powerbombing Kevin Nash, only in a Video game could that happen. 🤣😂
Tama is actually Rikishi's brother, or cousin. Fatu was Rikishi.
Tama went to WCW and became the Samoan Savage for a time.
Your right he was Rikishi’s brother, Rikishi was one of the headshrinkers
You need to get the Cuban Assassin involved. As a Canadian, you need the Cuban Assassin in every rumble.
Nice win by shawn
I’ll never get tired of those “oh no!” moments
1:37 Jannety tried to dive through the window to escape
Only 2 minutes in so far, I get some teams don’t make the cut, being there’s only 30 spots. That being said, I’ll like this video when I see a Hardy boy. Lmao 🤣 Great videos man! Awesome entertainment.

Dude, your videos are basically entertainment meets history lesson of the WWF/WWE. Love it!
As an 80’s child myself, your videos are pure gold!

Ricky: "And that's a great Axe..."
Me: "Oh, he said AaaaaXE!"
One of the best Rumbles I have seen. This was a fantastic idea.
Bro gotta say your energy is off the charts!!! Keep up the great attitude and ill keep supporting the channel.
These videos have the best coincidences. That Scott Hall moment was the best
last seasons tag rumble was epic, Hawk and Animal making it to the end
Watching the bushwackers fight each other reminds me of that AWA years when Crusher and Bruiser used to fight each other after a match.
I love how much he enjoys the videos
Thx Seth!
Your creativity on these rumbles are outstanding!!! I also think it's bad ass that you were a bouncer at a club Edge went to. That's the best.
I love how you can tell how much wrestling meant/means to you. Love to watch people make content they care about and enjoy doing themselves. It’s the most natural that way and feels more genuine which is what I love to see from YT channels.
Edit:typos
No Killer Bees -No Contest
Lol
The commentary almost makes me forget it’s a videogame. Amazing stuff man, kudos.
Wow thx man
This HBK looks more like the front man of The Red Hot Chili Peppers in the 90s LOL!!!
Not only didn't the bulldog and Dynamite work together, but bulldog got rid of him. Lol
Damn sad times!!
You are right Ricky! Be a good quality of life change to the game to see actual alliances in the ring.

You jinxed Scott Hall lol. We definately need a Canadian in the championship rumble
A masked men rumble would be a good one. Kane, Vader, mysterio, sin, man kind, etc
31:00 “he’s got a lot of meat” 😂😂😂
Crap, I was hoping the killer bees would be in and one of them wins. 🤣
Love the Rumble series. Can we get a DC vs Marvel?
The six-man tag I remember was the three-man Demolition vs the Legion of Doom/Road Warriors and the Ultimate Warrior, which prompted the following exchange from the commentary after a big brawl:
Lord Alfred Hays: "I don't know who the legal men in the ring are."
Gorilla Monsoon: "It's the guys in the face paint."
Wow, this was like a legit Shawn Michaels performance - amazing last 5 minutes of the match!
Initially a feature called ‘AI pairing’ was meant to be in the royal rumble back in 2k18 where tag teams would team up but unfortunately it was scrapped for some reason
NO LOYALTY in a rumble! Even amongst tag teams
It would be really cool if you could form partnerships or allies in royal rumbles. Still awesome though Ricky!
Some Rumble ideas:
- Hollywood Actors
- Managers (including Commentators, Bischoff, McMahon & guys like Prichard etc)
- WCW vs NWO Rumble
- 80s & 90s Rumble
- ECW, ROH, NWA, TNA, AEW all in one Rumble
Its kind of weird that escpecially for a canadian like you to be a Rockers Fan instead of the Hard Foundation 😂 I remember when WWE was back in Montreal with Shawn Michaels and how he got booed and them they played Brets theme... but Shawn just fooled them all...

I think you might have been thinking of Demolition vs The Legion of Doom & Ultimate Warrior.
Scott Hall again 😂😂😂 I'm fucking dying laughing

You pulled of some sweet sequences, respect!!!!
Thx T!!
I met the Hart foundation they were so legendary!! This rumble filled me with nostalgia
Gotta love the Ricky J stories during the entrances
Marty should advance to final champion rumble since this was tag team rumble
Shawn ALWAYS getting that credit.
I was hoping to see Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard half of the four horsemen...Whoooooo!!! 🐎🐎🐎🐎
3:08 damn.dynamite kid got haku's ear with his feet.what a move
Tama then Hawk.. perfect
A "Battle of the Beards" rumble would be awesome if there was a custom championship for the winner
Bubba Dudley got a little revenge for D-von. Another great video!
Trivia: When Butch and Luke were rookies they would wrestle each other a lot, as well as being a tag team, because there weren't a lot of wrestlers where they were.

and ... I'm having fun !
Can't wait for the ultimate winner rumble !!!
That Haku looks great. Might have to download him and create the Colossal Connection.
You forgot rock and roll Express in the midnight Express
Still loving these rumbles!
Fellow Canadian (and Torontoian).... love the videos. Would love to see a all WCW rumble and/or an all WCW tag team rumble and/or an all faction rumble.
You have to create a championship belt for winner of the winners rumble
I feel bad for Rick steiner came in and Haku just threw him out with ease lol
We need an all group rumble now. With like DX, Nation of Domination, the Wyatt Family etc...
Steiner's Steiner's Steiner's...remember the moondogs? Rex and Spot...or Power and Glory...gotta do a 80s tag rumble
A lot of teams from the 80's and 90's were in this but Ricky didn't include The Rogeau Brothers , The Bolsheviks , Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham , Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff , Dream Team , Los Conquistadors , Brain Busters , Strike Force , Twin Towers , Doom , Young Stallions Can - Am Connection and many more .
Tama of the Islanders is actually Rikishi's brother, I believe. Rikishi wasnt in the Islanders tag team. He was part of the Headshrinkers.
Yeppers, Headshrinker Fatu (Rikishi)
