10 Fascinating WWE Royal Rumble 2017 Facts
7. Heavier Wrestlers Used Special Carts To Move Down The Aisle
There were some unusual camera cuts (as opposed to WWE's "normal" camera cuts that induce epilepsy and anger simultaneously) when certain superheavyweights made their Rumble entrances. The likes of Big Show, Mark Henry, and others would be seen headed down the 65-yard aisleway, and suddenly the cameras would cut to the ring, where there potentially was nothing of note going on.
That's because the bigger guys were taken part of the way in modified golf carts, so as to conserve their energy somewhat. WWE didn't want the carts to be seen as part of the show, but some camera cuts just weren't quick enough to avoid seeing some wrestlers prepare to climb onto the vehicle.
As an old school fan, I'd like to ask a question: couldn't they use the WrestleMania 3 ring carts that looked liked miniature wrestling rings? Those were the greatest things ever, and you can't tell me otherwise.
