31 – Dolph Ziggler. Former caddy turned cheerleader turned show off. Believe he has won the most improved wrestler of the year for the past six years. Would have been a good pick to win this year’s Rumble before D-Bry made his return. Still will put on a good show like always. (Active: 8-23)

32 – Diesel. “Holy…” – Matt Striker. Again, probably the reason he’s not announcing WWE anymore. Good showing for Nash, and the second of the Main Event Mafia member the WWE poached for this match. Alas, Steiner, Sting and Angle would not appear. (Retired: 8-24)

33 – Drew McIntyre. Huge missed opportunity here. Drew and Sheamus team up a bit in this match, hinting at a potentially great tag team. Current EVOLVE Champ, last time in WWE he was seen diving through a table during WeeLC (Released, 8-25)

34 – Alex Riley. Well, if you go back to this match and want to know where Riley went, he fell out. Seriously. Just fell out of the ring while Cena and Kofi were trying to save him. Whoops. He’s better as “The Analyst.” (Commentary: 8-26)

35 – Big Show. Hey, it’s that guy who ruins things! (™ 3MB) Show enters the ring, has a staredown with Diesel, hints at a match nobody wants to see that we are thankfully spared from. Regardless, currently in the midst of a heel turn. Wait, maybe a face turn. No, it’s a heel turn again. Now face… (Active, now heel: 9-26)

36 – Ezekial Jackson. Final ECW champ and member of Team Dixieland! Currently seen smoking a cigar in the stands of Lucha Underground behind Danny Trejo. Yes, the Danny Trejo! (Released: 9-27)

37 – Santino Marella. Former Miss Wrestlemania, as well as the man who should have won this match. Great character, less than stellar actor. Currently kind of retired? (Injured: 9-28)

38 – Alberto Del Rio. Winner of this Rumble, and newest member of the ROH roster. Del Rio left WWE last year due to a racial incident, but will be a star on the indies in 2015. Now someone please book Del Rio-Styles! (Released: 9-29)

39 – Randy Orton. Former Rumble winner, last seen on WWE TV getting his face stomped into the announce table by the future of the WWE, Seth Rollins. Mostly known for Vines now. Expect his re-debut imminently, probably hitting an RKO …outtaknowhere! (Injured: Acting, 9-30)

40 – Kane. There’s Corporate Kane, Candy Kane, Concession Kane, but Rumble Kane is my favorite iteration. As long as there are Rumbles, expect Kane in them! (Active: 10-30)

So there you have it. Out of 40 competitors, there are 10 still in action. Orton, Sheamus, Mysterio, Henry and Hornswoggle might come back again soon, but still, that’s less than half the field still in the WWE four years later.
