So, I double checked this, Sullivan is technically right with Razor Ramon. Whilst Scott Hall was never in a Royal Rumble match, the character of Razor Ramon was, 1997 he entered in at number 3 and was the first one eliminated.
I checked as well and was going to um actually. I remembered a joke from a wrestling with wregret video that went like ironically fake razor was in one more than the real one
Same with both Pete and Oli going right to D-Von after naming Bubba Ray, but when Luke got there, he expertly went straight from Bubba Ray to the Hardys.
I mean, she was trapped in a room with a masked man and a camera, forced to do a task that will destroy her body and mind under a time limit. It's pretty much the summary of a Saw movie.
She's the only one to name a Royal Rumble entrant with one's own name! That's bang out of order, Bushwhacker Luke Owen and Bruiserweight Pete Quinnell!
I imagine the spreadsheet in Tegan’s mind is less like an Excel spreadsheet, and more like when you try to adjust a table in Word and it decides to move everything everywhere. She’s so good in these shows
How the heck did Luke know to skip D-Von when he was rattling of the Attitude era participants? That's when you know you've spent too much time reliving the nineties 😂
The Dubley's competed in almost no special match types outside of TLC because their tag team matches were a huge draw and they left the company in the early 2000's.
Razor Ramon has most definitely entered a royal rumble, just not the Scott Hall version of Razor Ramon, if you're having Doink, then you should allow Razor
Tempest replying to 'ChElSeA GrEeEeEnN!' with 'DiNg!', immediately followed by 'WHO DA MAAAAN?! ...don't distract me!' was delightful. Also, poor Pete. I really thought he could have this one.
Two things: Razor Ramon should NOT have been a strike (he didn't say Scott Hall!) and I can't believe no one said the Warlord (for twenty long years...).
A timed RUclips challenge where the clock is actually respected and unwavering was amazing. The look of disbelief on them all when they weren’t allowed to sneak the answer in as the buzzer went off was gold
They all INSTANTLY go into nightmare panic mode and it's the best thing ever. Love all of you folks, Tegan is such a delightful addition, her nicknaming wrestlers then forgetting their real names is so relateable.
When I saw the title of the video and heard Tempest say what is the challenge, I laughed like a maniac. 🤣 Adam Whitney deserves a raise for the editing. Survival Series is awesome!
Excellent adaptation of the normal format. I bet this was way easier to edit, AND it's just as fun as the matching up answers from the normal format. Nice work, Adam
Honestly shocked nobody used the clock to gather thoughts instead they all yelled out names immediately and then just floundered if they didn't have one before 8 seconds were left. Also, this was a delight, thank you Tempest and Editor Whitney (apologies if the spelling is incorrect)
This is arguably my favourite Survival Series episode ever. The right person won (FINALLY!) but everyone did so so well. Thank you for this gem. And thank you Editor Adam Whitney for the amazing work!
This is such a chaotic episode, but I don't see any strategy beyond naming in alphabetical order being the best one and just skipping any you're unsure of. In any case, this is an amazing episode.
I think just thinking of recent women is a good start, they ALL have been, knees deep into nxt. do that until you really cannot name any more wwe women wrestlers, then do all the men winners, then just spam names
@@bubbafontleroy Oh, I completely agree with this, but I feel naming off wrestlers randomly will do more harm than good. If you generalize going in alphabetical order of names you can surely think of, getting buzzed or stuck would just mean you can move on to the next letter, not to mention the grace period to think between runs. The strategy by @victorolosaurus is also viable, but when you have, what, 35 years or so of wrestlers to work off I think going alphabetical is a safe strategy.
I would have grouped it. In my first Round I would go with Current Male Superstars, the second Round would be Former Stars (so 80s and 90s) and the 3rd Round would be only the Woman's Royal Rumble.
Beth Pheonix, Karma, Nia Jax, Randy Orton. I immediately laughed when Pete named these wrestlers in this order because i know exactly what he had in mind😂😂
3:46 I don’t understand how Tempest missed that, or didn’t double check, he usually has his facts straight for these. All you have to do is have a list of every entrant in the Royal Rumble, and you can see Razor Ramon is listed for the 1997 Royal Rumble. Sully did not say Scott Hall, so his answer was correct.
Another FANTASTIC episode :) especially watching Tegan's Canadian accent come out more and more as she tries to come up with names before the time expires lol
I've actually been keeping a list of every Royal Rumble entrant for the past few years and their numbers, those who are deceased and more. As of the 2023 Rumble, there have been a total of 444 entrants, men, women, and greatest but not including the house shows and TV Rumbles (88 excluded).
The minute Oli and Sulli said Bubba Ray, I shouted out, "Nooo!!!" as I KNEW, they were gonna say D'von and get a strike. If only they had said Spike instead
Some suggestions for future survivor series episodes, and some that I think Luke would do well at is Naming every TNA/Impact X division Champion, and every NXT Champion (yes, every North American, NXT Men's, NXT Women's Men's Tag Team, Woman's Tag team, and NXT Cruiserweight.
Sully was screwed! The character of Razor Ramon appeared in the 1997 Rumble. He may have meant Scott Hall's portrayal, but he said the name Razor Ramon, which in turn should have included Rick Bogner's portrayal
The time limit was created specifically for Tegan, not for avoiding setting the longest recording record (because hello 10-hour live streams), and I will not be told otherwise 🤣
MAN, Vince just did not give two shits about D'Von, did he? To be fair, it seems Bubba-Ray didn't either. One of my absolute favorite comedy goldmines is anything like this where it's LITERALLY "just say ANY NAME" because those will be the ones that, for whatever reason, will cause a normally clever person's brain to instantly seize up because there are TOO MANY OPTIONS to pick just one. OR they'll be like Luke and Pete and just firehose it out all at once before abruptly freezing.
Poor stressed out Tegan, I just want to give her a hug and tell her it’ll be okay. And yet it’s just so funny watching her unravel, she almost puts Jon Gracey to shame.
This video inspired me to learn every royal rumble match entrant in order. Thanks for making this video. My wrestling trivia knowledge increased a lot after this video.
I love these so much. They could easily do this again next year with the same participants, and maybe give bonus points if they name people they didn’t name this time around
It’s hilarious that they are all forgetting that the Dudleyz always had a tag match on the Rumble PPVs, so Bubba didn’t get his first Rumble appearance until recently when he came back alone while D-Von was a producer.
So if you think about it, it makes sense they’d have to specify if they meant Fake Razor. Tempest specified that gimmicks played by the same person only count as 1 entry. Glen Jacobs was Fake Diesel. If the same gimmick played by different people didn’t count as two answers, answering Kane would then mean you couldn’t answer Diesel for Kevin Nash.
Cant believe some were starting solid with factions from the 90s, almost named entire DX, but kissed out bad ass billy gunn, and then jumped straight to modern day judgement day. Have to structure through the eras surely be easier
Very interesting one, so many options but a lot of chances to mess up as well. Pete was doing people with notable spots but he didn't say Paul London for having one of the best eliminations ever.

Sully was done dirty
@@sykosiz5785justice for Sullivan
No love for the great Babatunde
JUSTICE FOR SULLY!
Just surprised that no one ever mentioned Titus O'Neil. Can’t forget that trip.
So, I double checked this, Sullivan is technically right with Razor Ramon. Whilst Scott Hall was never in a Royal Rumble match, the character of Razor Ramon was, 1997 he entered in at number 3 and was the first one eliminated.
Justice for sully!
Technically correct, the best kind of correct.
Yeah, Fake Diesel and Fake Razor Ramon. Technically, Sullivan was correct in the latter.
I checked as well and was going to um actually. I remembered a joke from a wrestling with wregret video that went like ironically fake razor was in one more than the real one
Do over!!!!
Oli drawing a blank after Jey Uso when he has not named Jey's brother yet is hilarious.
Same with both Pete and Oli going right to D-Von after naming Bubba Ray, but when Luke got there, he expertly went straight from Bubba Ray to the Hardys.
Adam “Where is your God now” Whitney playing an editorial blinder here.
As much as I love Tempest, Editor Adam is the MVP of Survival Series
Funny how Oli couldn’t think of anyone but Hornswoggle before the start…only to not name him during the actual game 😂😂😂
I came looking for this. 😂
Props to Adam for editing it per strike, so much better than doing it by wrestler!
Why does Tegan feel like she's in a psychological horror movie?
I mean, she was trapped in a room with a masked man and a camera, forced to do a task that will destroy her body and mind under a time limit. It's pretty much the summary of a Saw movie.
I think he should've counted her saying Rhea Ripley at 10:43
The fact that Tegan was the only one who managed to mention Tegan Nox is such a tremendous thing that I smiled
She's the only one to name a Royal Rumble entrant with one's own name! That's bang out of order, Bushwhacker Luke Owen and Bruiserweight Pete Quinnell!
@@DanHowsen Luke could have also said Owen Hart for that matter.
Tegan is just the loveliest form of train wreck. The 'Mitsubishi Lancer' thing was just what I needed at the end of a long week.
I imagine the spreadsheet in Tegan’s mind is less like an Excel spreadsheet, and more like when you try to adjust a table in Word and it decides to move everything everywhere. She’s so good in these shows
JUSTICE FOR SULLY! Scott Hall was never in a Royal Rumble, but Sully said Razor Ramon who definitely was in the 1997 Rumble.
How the heck did Luke know to skip D-Von when he was rattling of the Attitude era participants? That's when you know you've spent too much time reliving the nineties 😂
I'm surprised Luke didn't name every entrant from the 2000 Royal Rumble in entrance order lol
Because it's common knowledge that the Dudley Boyz had not been in a Royal Rumble until Bubba's cameo.
I mean I wouldn't say it's common knowledge but it is a shared unique fact. @@TequilaToothpick
The Dubley's competed in almost no special match types outside of TLC because their tag team matches were a huge draw and they left the company in the early 2000's.

Bray Wyatt Goldberg Braun Strowman Titus O Neil weren’t mentioned either
@@MeirNissim-c1t Can't believe they forgot Titus' trip
What about my boy, HEALTH SLATER?! 🤣
I said Warlord out loud
@@JaimeD. THE ONE MANN BANDDDD

Everyone involved (but especially Adam Whitney) deserves so much credit for making this one work, I can't imagine how chaotic this was

When I saw the title of the video and heard Tempest say what is the challenge, I laughed like a maniac. 🤣 Adam Whitney deserves a raise for the editing. Survival Series is awesome!
Teegan being here had me excited and then she just went "I keep thinking of Mitsubishi Lancer!" And it got me 😂
Excellent adaptation of the normal format. I bet this was way easier to edit, AND it's just as fun as the matching up answers from the normal format. Nice work, Adam

The timer messes everyone up, as soon as you hesitate, your train of thought is gone

the best tactic is to go through all countries and continents, and then when you reach USA, things get wild.
Beth Pheonix, Karma, Nia Jax, Randy Orton. I immediately laughed when Pete named these wrestlers in this order because i know exactly what he had in mind😂😂
No Chyna though, he still doesn't know who's Chinese
@@xerael4659 Has Chyna been in a Men's Royal Rumble?
@@gentimorina400 Yes, she was number 30 in 1999 and she won the Corporate Rumble.
How have you guys not done a custom briefcase for this yet?!?!?
Amazing series.
The way this was edited was quite smart keeping each chunk together is smart

Sullivan didn’t break my heart yesterday on NRB, time to get disappointed.
I was screaming the weirdest names, Mil Mascaras, Warlord, Carlos Colon, Vickie Guerrero, Chyna. I want a go of this one!
"Razor Ramon" was in a rumble!
#JusticeForSullivan
I like the new timer format. Maybe do the same for elimination chamber entrants?
Justice for Sullivan. "Razor Ramon" did enter the Rumble. Tempest just manipulated Sullivan into believing he didn't.
Oli’s panicked “I CAN ONLY THINK OF HORNSWOGGLE” cracked me up so bad
Adam's editing and selection of random clips always gets me 😂
I like that everyone took a moment to say, "well, Tegan must be having a nervous breakdown." And reader, thry were right.
Adam Whitney……you bloody legend. Stellar job on this edit mate. I can’t even begin to imagine the mountain you had to climb lol

If only they had said Spike instead
4:59
I don't know what's funnier 😅
Tegan referring to Elias as SILAS! 😂
OR
Tempest's reaction 🤣
I’m happy to see Tegan back 😂 we need another tag team themed Survival Series so we can have Sullivan and Tegan back together
I’m SHOCKED Chris Benoit was erased from your memories like a WWE archive. That’s craaaaazy!
Some suggestions for future survivor series episodes, and some that I think Luke would do well at is Naming every TNA/Impact X division Champion, and every NXT Champion (yes, every North American, NXT Men's, NXT Women's Men's Tag Team, Woman's Tag team, and NXT Cruiserweight.
20:25 "Um... Lets say..."
If he'd have finished the Simpsons quote with "Mo," he'd have been right! 😂
I'm just happy to see Tegan again. I still await her NRB debut!
Sullivan is adorable! ❤ Someone give that man a hug!
The Men At Work cut in for Luke’s run was epic
I kept screaming "Hiroki Sumi!" at the screen and i dont know why... It was the only name that I could think of!
So stressful and awesome!!!
Sully was screwed! The character of Razor Ramon appeared in the 1997 Rumble. He may have meant Scott Hall's portrayal, but he said the name Razor Ramon, which in turn should have included Rick Bogner's portrayal
Surely Tegan should get a point for knowing there’s no one called Mitsubishi Lancer.
I would try to name all of the winners 1st, then everyone who I feel like should have one then i'd struggle lol
I’d go with runners up afterwards who hadn’t won a rumble and then ones with multiple matches and then memorable spots
I’ll say it. Mitsubishi Lancer is a FANTASTIC wrestler name. Tegan was absolutely a delight on this episode, more of that please.
My hubby and I were rooting so hard for Screamin' Tegan! You'll gettem next time!
The time limit was created specifically for Tegan, not for avoiding setting the longest recording record (because hello 10-hour live streams), and I will not be told otherwise 🤣
TEGAN is absolutely the gem I didn’t know I needed, adore her in the videos great addition to the team
Adding Obi Wan on top of the shelf during Luke's intro was a very nice subtle touch.
0:20
For the record, this is the video that finally tips me into getting the Wrestletalk patreon.
Can we just have Tegan and Sully always in a team? Even if it's a singles thing, just keep them in a team. No one will complain. 😂
Fun fact, that Wilhelm Scream was actually Sullivan’s voice. In fact, Sullivan is brought in to record every Wilhelm Scream in movies and television.
when Tegan got her third strike and made a weird screech out of frustration it sounded so close to Marc Mero's wil cat screech xD
Poor Adam Whitney. What a job you've done. You deserve all the love and hugs (and money *cough* *cough* Oli)
Thank you Adam Whitney you brilliant editor 🙏
the way this is edited is perfect.
Poor Adam Whitney 😅😂

20:06 omg the *Ding* in the Chelsea Green tone got me. 😂
Gotta say love Tegan, she's so relatable. I too panic during time crunches and forget everything I ever knew about anything.
Best episode yet. Everyone was a hot mess throughout, and i loved it.
Why does a panicked Tegan remind me of the mom from Bobby's World(look it up plz)? 🤣 😂
This video inspired me to learn every royal rumble match entrant in order. Thanks for making this video. My wrestling trivia knowledge increased a lot after this video.
I like Pete going Nia Jax, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio in that order cause he's clearly thinking about that specific spot.
"SAY HER NAME! SAY HER NAME! AUSTIN THEORY!"
Insade scoop on an upcoming transition?
I'm so glad that someone remembered wrestling legend Drew Carey
“Nobody’s name is Mitsubishi Lancer” 😂😂😂
was hoping Tempest was going to say reverse chronological order again just for the chaos lol
"oh you like wrestling? name every wrestler." -Tempest
Of all people i can't believe Tempest didnt know Razor Ramon was in one Royal Rumble.
Adam is a fabulous editor
5:17 the most Tegan thing ever 😂
12:42 had me choking on food, that was hilarious 😂
I love these so much. They could easily do this again next year with the same participants, and maybe give bonus points if they name people they didn’t name this time around
It’s hilarious that they are all forgetting that the Dudleyz always had a tag match on the Rumble PPVs, so Bubba didn’t get his first Rumble appearance until recently when he came back alone while D-Von was a producer.
He didn't come back alone he d von had plenty of tag matches in their last run
@@ApexZer0Bubba Ray made a solo appearance before D-von came back
I remember because R-Truth did all the Dudley spots with Bubba.
Razor Ramon wasn't but "Razor Ramon" Rick Bogner was. Shenanigans!
So if you think about it, it makes sense they’d have to specify if they meant Fake Razor. Tempest specified that gimmicks played by the same person only count as 1 entry. Glen Jacobs was Fake Diesel. If the same gimmick played by different people didn’t count as two answers, answering Kane would then mean you couldn’t answer Diesel for Kevin Nash.
This is my first time coming across Tegan, and damn, she's adorable.
What? I’m all for this 😂😂
Sullivans going to get that Daniel Bryan pop when he wins….just you wait
Cant believe some were starting solid with factions from the 90s, almost named entire DX, but kissed out bad ass billy gunn, and then jumped straight to modern day judgement day.
Have to structure through the eras surely be easier
I love how Tempest goes “wait who” and Tegan is just like “Silas (0_0)”
Luke rocking the Scene Queen t-shirt ❤
5:06 - "WWE stands for Walk! With!... Silas?"
Love the botchamania reference with tazz lol
no one said babatunde :( im sad
“No you bastard” took me out 😂😂
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MONTHLY DOSE OF SURVIVAL SERIES!!!! hello from Louisiana 👍🏾
Very interesting one, so many options but a lot of chances to mess up as well. Pete was doing people with notable spots but he didn't say Paul London for having one of the best eliminations ever.
technicaly Razor Ramone was in the 97 RR it just wasn't Scott Hall. this should be allowed under the Doink principle
from now on - thanks to Sully - when I want to compliment a woman I will tell her "You're so cool, you're Michelle McCool" Thank you Sullivan.
Razor Ramon was in the 97 rumble so technically Sullivan was right
