#2. Chris Masters on how WWE books the Royal Rumble eliminations

The Royal Rumble match concept will always be remembered as one of the most fascinating WWE creations. The yearly offering comes along with a lot of hype as it kickstarts the road to WrestleMania. It also serves as the platform for some major surprises. However, there are many backstage details of the match that are still not known by the fans.

On the latest edition of SK Wrestling's Inside SKoop with Dr. Chris Featherstone, Chris Masters revealed that the WWE producers are somewhat lenient when it comes to booking the eliminations of the Royal Rumble match.

Meticulous planning doesn't go into every elimination, as there are some instances where the Superstars are given the liberty to work it out themselves.

"From what I remember about it, it isn't so like every single elimination is strategically planned out and who does the elimination. There are a lot of those, yes, but there are some of them where it's just like, 'We need to get a few guys out,' and those might be worked out amongst the guys. So it's kind of a split of both, from what I remember." H/t Danny Hart of SK Wrestling

The Superstars have a say in the eliminations, and that's a good practice to follow while putting together the Royal Rumble matches.
