It seems as though the importance of the Royal Rumble has been disregarded with the Elimination Chamber the following month and the MITB match when it takes place at WM. The Rumble since 1993 has always been a way to determine who gets the title shot at WM. These days, you have 30 guys competing for the title shot. Out of the 29 who fail, only about 15 have a legit chance at winning the Rumble. No problem there. But the very next month, of those 29 who failed at winning the Rumble, 10 are rewarded with title matches in the Elimination Chamber. And right after that, the majority of those guys get yet another shot at the MITB. So, within a 4 month period, a guy has 3 chances at becoming the number 1 contender.
That, IMO, takes away all the importance of the Rumble match. So it seems rather pointless in building up talent, when they can just win 1 match to put them in a major title program.
Does anybody else feel the same way?
