WWE Royal Rumble - Live Scoring & Results

I'll be covering the Royal Rumble PPV tonight, keeping all the results and the current scoring for the game right here in this blog post.  If you want to stay up-to-date with the results, along with the complete list of eliminations, then stick around!  We'll begin with the results as soon as the PPV gets underway!  This blog post is going up at 6pm Eastern, so still 2 hours away from the start of the show..  but as soon as the show starts, I'll be updating this entry!

If at any time the eliminations I list look wrong to you, please let me know.  Some eliminations are tough to track if multiple people are involved in the elimination.  But I'll double-check my results before scoring the PPV later tonight.

I am being challenged by HBKIsForever tonight, so the scores you'll see will follow both of our predictions.  Good luck, HBKIsForever!

As you can see below, the blog will start with some fill-in-the-blanks.  I'll update each list live throughout the show.  Below the lists you'll find the actual results for the PPV, and then the very bottom is the full prediction game with my and HBKIsForever's picks for the show.
