WWE Royal Rumble 2011 Trailers

Royal Rumble (2011) was the twenty-fourth annual Royal Rumble PPV. It took place on January 30, 2011 at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. As has been customary since 1993, the Royal Rumble match winner received a match at that year's WrestleMania for his choice at either the WWE Championship or the World Heavyweight Championship. The main event was the annual Royal Rumble match featuring 40 participants from both brands, instead of the usual number of 30. The primary match on the Raw brand was for the WWE Championship, between reigning champion The Miz and Randy Orton. The primary match on the SmackDown brand was Edge versus Dolph Ziggler for the World Heavyweight Championship. The other featured match on the card was a Fatal Four Way match for the WWE Divas Championship between Eve Torres, Natalya, Layla and Michelle McCool.

Please forgive me if I do English mistakes because English is not my main language...BEWARE: MY REVIEW CONTAINS HUGE SPOILERS!I had a big expectation for this per-pay view because for the forty men Royal Rumble match.I thought, WOW! That's the biggest Royal Rumble Ever!!So I begged my father to subscribe this highly anticipated(for me and other WWE Fans) per-pay view...OK, let's start with the championship match. The event began with World Heavyweight Championship Match, Edge vs Dolph Ziggler.I never expected this was a very good match. Surprisingly, I found this match quite entertaining after few minutes of 'boring wrestling' that nearly caught me sleep...So I gave it 7/10 About WWE Championship Match, Randy Orton vs The Miz...I also quite anticipated this rematch. As a result, the match didn't disappoint me too...not as AWESOME as Stone Cold vs The Rock match in WM17 but it at least still gave me some thrill and I'm surprised with unexpected and 'misunderstood' twist at the end of the match.So it scores 7/10...Hmmm,Divas' Match...Sorry but i had no comment about this (literally I missed the match) but I knew it ended pretty fast...Now with the our BIGGEST MAIN EVENT! All I can say is.... UNEXPECTED and LITTLE Disappointing! Why? Unexpected refer to the winner of the Royal Rumble...And Thank God is not that guy again...I hope u get it what i mean...And some surprising appearance of my old likable superstar got me in joy as well...Now with Disappointing part - a)The whole crowd was too quiet.You just can spot that the atmosphere was so 'cool' and u can hear no crowd were cheering to the part that suppose to be exciting(I meant the WWE plan).Only some really good moments you can hear them cheering... b)The moment with great potential just poorly executed.That means how bad the script was.For example, The Kane only came for a few minutes and he haven't done any chokeslam but he got eliminated so easily.The Kane was a 'pro Royal Rumble guy' in past WWE.That's only one example but there was many annoying parts... c)What the hell's wrong in Santino Marella case. You'll get it after watched it.Overall: The Championship Matches didn't leave any disappointment if you don't expect it great like WWF matches...The Royal Rumble match was disappointment.The first-half part was entertaining but the second-half part just....(Whatever you want describe it).So think well before you want to appreciate or waste your 3hours...Have a nice day^^

1. In the opening match Edge b. Dolph Ziggler to retain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in 20:45.I thought this was an entertaining match, and it was nice to see Edge pull out the unprettier. While Ziggler may not have won the world title here he still has a good shot in the future.2. In the second match The Miz (w/Alex Riley) b. Randy Orton to retain the WWE Championship in 19:50.This was another entertaining match as The Miz is at the top of his game. He has made me want to see him each and every week, and its been great listening to his promos. If Alberto Del Rio does decide that he wants to face him, this match will be nothing short of awesome! These were two exciting matches with plenty of action and near falls.3. In a Fatal Four Way Match Eve Torres b. Layla, Michelle McCool, and Natalya to become the new WWE Divas Champion in 5:20.This will be Eve's second reign as the Divas Champion so we'll see what's in store for her. As for the match itself, it was short and it could have gone either way based on how the match ended. For what its worth I do find Divas matches entertaining if only the WWE gave them time to shine, and longer matches.4. The Royal Rumble Match was won by none other than ALBERTO DEL RIO in 70:10! I thought this year's Rumble Match was pretty good, and it was nice to see some former superstars like Diesel and Booker T. While both men obviously did not last long it was exciting while they were in there. There was a spectacular move by John Morrison to save himself from getting eliminated. (Highly suggest that you check this out) CM Punk and Nexus did their part by completely owning the match mid way through. I kept saying to myself just wait till Cena comes out and he'll quickly eliminate the group which he did. I agree that it was nice to see a fresh face win the rumble in the likes of Del Rio. Del Rio fulfilled his destiny by winning the Royal Rumble, and now he can crown his achievements at WrestleMania by becoming either the World Heavyweight Champion or the WWE Champion!! Tune in to see the direction in which Del Rio takes! Thanks! Check out this video to see the results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIWTSvqn-Sc
