The 2026 UKFF Royal Rumble Lottery

[Glenryck Pilchards]

It's that time of year again when I begrudgingly put myself through a product which I can't be arsed watching. But this time it is a Saudi Blood Money Spectacular! So hopefully it won't finish at stupid o'clock.

 As usual, you only need to reply to this thread and pick FIVE numbers between 1 and 30. These numbers will be used for both Rumbles. All you need to do is sit back, relax and cheer on your selections to amass enough points to be crowned champion, while I frantically fanny around with an Excel spreadsheet. Each selection will be allocated points as below;

The Top 5

Winner - 50 points
Runner-up (last eliminated) - 35 points
3rd - 25 points
4th - 15 points
5th - 10 points

Survivor award; the most time spent in the ring
1st longest - 40 points
2nd longest - 30 points
3rd longest - 20 points
4th longest - 15 points
5th longest - 12 points


Your wrestler eliminates another: 4 points

The Bushwhacker Luke award;

If your wrestler is eliminated within 60 seconds of entering the ring you are deducted 10 points.

Skinning the Cat Award 

 If your wrestler skins the cat and returns to the ring you will gain 15 points. However, if they get eliminated while attempting it or within three seconds of returning to the ring, they will be deducted 30 points for being a dickhead.

The Tiffany Award

If your wrestler is in the ring on their todd (after entrant number two enters the ring), then they will receive 6 points. Your wrestler can score more than once. Obviously, the winner is not included in this.

The "You Stupid Idiot" Award 

Renamed after Chris Jericho, who did this in 2017, if your wrestler volunteers to climb the top rope but then gets knocked off and eliminated you lose 30 points.

The "Well, We Weren't Expecting You!" Award 

A little re-working for this this year. If your wrestler is listed as a Raw or Smackdown wrestler, they will receive 0 points. For anyone else, it will go on either where they are currently contracted to, or the last appearance that they have made. 

NXT: 5 points
TNA or AAA: 10 points
HOF/Legend: 15 points
 Indies or Japan: 20 points
AEW or ROH: 25 points 

For example, if Jericho turns up at the Rumble for his return, then he will get 25 points. If he appears on Raw or Smackdown prior, then he will get 0 points. Vignettes do not count. 

 

The Double Bubble Award:

 If your selection competed earlier on the card, they will gain 15 points

The "In Like a House on Fire" Award:

 If your entrant eliminates someone within 60 seconds of entering the ring they will get an additional 6 points as well as the normal elimination bonus. 

Hat Trick Heaven: 

If your pick is a member of an active tag team or stable, you will get 5 points. If they are in the Rumble at the same time as a fellow group member, the points will be doubled to 10. If there are three members or more, the points will be doubled again to 20. (It will be capped at three members)

New for 2026: The Inaminate Object Conundrum

If your selection eliminates someone by unconventional means, they will receive the following bonus points:

A weapon or foreign object: 5 points
A puppet: 10 points
A curse or other magical wizardry: 25 points

If your selection is eliminated by any of the above ways, you will lose the same number of points. 

 

If anyone else has any suggestions for scoring criteria, please feel free to put your thoughts with your selections. There is no guarantee I will consider them...

 

Before you post your selections, please read these rules to help me out:

1. Make sure you only pick FIVE numbers from 1 to 30
2. Make sure they are in numerical order
3. If you fail to adhere to these rules, I will make you look like a chump.

Please make your selections by 10 PM, Friday, 30th January

My selection is 2,11,21,24 and 28

 

Good luck!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, even if it’s going to be a Royal Saudi Shitshow!

I pick

1, 4, 9, 19, 21

because they correspond to the letters that spell “Saudi”. It’s a sure thing.
