I am genuinely impressed that Adam spent more time booking a Kofi/Ricochet/Escobar elimination escape spot than WWE probably spent booking last year's Rumble match

I love that Adam’s prediction did indeed age immediately as his booking began with the bloodline acknowledgment ceremony that did not happen. Still a fantastic fantasy Rumble and I nearly died laughing at the Finn riding Priest to the ring portion. Serves me right for listening to this in the car.

I love your booking videos, particularly Rumbles. However, it would be great if Rumble videos would have some sort of tracker at the bottom, like the faces of the wrestlers that have entered the Rumble with them being greyed out when they are eliminated. It would be a very helpful visual aid, particularly for people who have to pause the video due to something coming up and resume it later on.

Nicely-done. Almost every entrant gets a memorable moment, key eliminations set up further matches, it tells two separate stories that get resolved in a head-on collision at the end, and the fan favorite gets the win. Color me impressed!

This was horrible. Why have Sami Zayn eliminate The Rock? Thats literally the only possibility of Sami Zayn getting boo'ed in the Rumble match.

adam's redemption arc on WT and PFK has been my favourite part of the last 3 years

Gunther entering at number NEIN popped me more than it should.

Cody won and while cool, it’s kinda meh cuz we all knew he was already in the match so there was no point of him being the 30th entrant

I need to see this idea you created for Kofi, Santos, and Ricochet at the actual Royal Rumble, that is a genius idea

There is just one thing that i would love to see in this version of the rumble. Its Rock and Austin standing in the ring mirroring the 2001 rumble. Apart from that, fantastic booking, as usual

In a rare twist, this would _not_ have been better than the rumble card we got

Driving to the rumble and listening to this had been pure joy!

ITS FINALLY HERE!!!!!

Love you Adam. Thanks for always giving us such entertaining videos to watch.

"Tajiri still has it as he showed in the cruiserweight classic"....7 years ago...times flies

I will be at the Rumble! 4hr road trip, here I come!

It amazes me just how well you can book storylines. Banger after banger after banger 🔥

Never clicked faster on a notification

This is the best booking video I’ve seen you make in a while. Laughed several times and had a few surprises!!!

Seeing Adam trying to act out that Kofi spot was comedy gold

BRILLIANT! Gosh how I wish this would happen. No matter what Sami needs to pull the trigger on the Bloodline before they get him.

Videos like this releasing hype me up just as much for royal rumble season vs the actual buildup the show gives

Been looking forward to this vid all week and of course it dind disappoint best wrestling Mind on KZread.

i’ve been checking the page every day waiting for this

And it's even more unfortunate that this will be the first year without a "How Adam Would Book: The Royal Rumble 2024"

I really hope WWE realizes the Daniel Bryan-esque situation they're in and book Sami winning the rumble. Amazing booking as always

Been waiting on this !

Finally!!!! Been waiting for this since Christmas

Problem is if you watch this before the rumble you’re always going to be disappointed at the real thing as it’s never as good Edit: accidentally skipped ahead and saw Blampied in the birthing position. I take it back.

Although I loved how the Bloodline story played out IRL at the rumble, I agree that with Adam that Sami should've eliminated Cody to win. This year's RR wasn't BAD, it was just slightly bland. There weren't many separate little stories going on, or memorable spots really (aside from Ricochet and LP), and the winner was predictable - which, could still work, but overall I felt it was a little underwhelming. Better than last year's though.

thank you Adam, these are so enjoyable to watch and always bring a smile to my face. thank you

That introduction for finn balor (im not even gonna bother typing it tbh) was the best sentence ever formed in the english language.

I truly think Cody has to win the Rumble. This is a much longer story than Sami and Sami's story is unbelievable. But Cody is the guy who was overlooked for Roman. Roman was always Vince's guy. Cody thought he should be Vince's guy but he was never good enough. Now he goes out to prove his worth start a competitor to Vince and then he comes back to win the one thing that alluded him. And to truly be the guy, he has to beat the guy who was picked over him and end the historic reign of Roman.

That spot with Dom, Gunter, and Braun would be amazing. Great booking as always.

I love the booking the only thing I disagree with is your Mania planning, story wise it makes a lot more sense for Night 1 to be Roman/Rock, Roman wins marking the highest point of his reign as both champion and undisputed head of the table, then on Night 2 it comes crashing down against Sami who wins the unified belts from him

I'm here from the post rumble to tell ya- You did it better. Your rumble actually tells a story. Real Rumble felt like it was just- building for Cody to come in and win.

I get more excited for this than I actually do for the rumble

Been waiting for this one

This would be so great, fully separate the titles to create more directions for the story! can end the Roman’s hood on both at the same Mania, or retain one, or even retain both via shenanigans and have it all blow over at summer slam!

Sami Zayn should NOT win the rumble. He doesn’t have the look to be a main event level star and definitely not during wrestlemania season when you need to draw as many viewers as possible.

Been waiting so long for this!!!!!!!!

I really enjoy your booking. Also ACE, your performance of telling the story. Love it love it love it. ❤ cheers. This is brilliant

Adam would be great booking for ECW cause he loves to OVerbook things. I think we can all agree that Adam did it worse.

Horrible booking. Why would Sami Zayn just turn on Roman in the middle of the Rumble? If he would have won the Rumble it would have been better to have Roman turn on him at EC in Montreal for nuclear heat.

I've always loved your videos about the royal rumble! Love the hair too!

I needed something good going to work today, and I am so happy that Adam’s Royal Rumble was here. Thank you Adam and PFK!

All joking aside, it's great to see Plumpy with his natural locks again.

I wasn't against the booking of the actual match. But man the ending to Adam's booking made the hair on my arms stand up in anticipation. That would have been such good story telling

Loved this booking! Super creative and ties things together well with some great fun. Sooooo hyped for the rumble!

That final 2 would make that building NUCLEAR. People would lose voices and hearing from that Adam. Well done.

gaddamnit i miss you plumpy

As a person at the Rumble, the Men's match was so good, that it kinda burnt out the crowd for the rest of the night.

There’s one upcoming event in particular I would love to see Adam Blampied tackle. How Adam would book the revival of Ring of Honor.

I’ve been rewatching all the other rumble content just waiting for this to come out.
