The Royal Rumble is taking place this weekend so who would like to take part in my sweepstake?

The price has gone up this year to make the prize even greater! Just £3 will buy you two numbers and if the eventual winner of the rumble enters at one of your numbers, then you win the lot.

I'm looking for 14 people (I'm playing) to take part so post below if you'd like to take part.

Surely this would be more open to abuse from insider knowledge than anything else???

Can't you bet on soaps as well? Like killers in Eastenders or something like that? Since it's all scripted it's the Same thing I guess.

Is this a sport?

Anyway, do I need to actually have any knowledge of... wrestling?... To take part? Sweepstake means drawn from a hat, right? If so, I will do £3 of bet!

I know some wrestlers:

Jake the snake
Andre The Giant
The undertaker
Big daddy
Hulk hogan
Giant haystacks

What's my count for number of wrestlers still alive? Oh, and the chap from the Mummy.

I thought he was maybe called The Rock, but then I thought maybe that was just the bane of a film.

I thought that but then decided that it wasn't a very funny joke so that automatically granted you access to the sweepstake. Same goes for Warhead.

Ok, time's up. I've taken Grim... and Malia up on their offer and doubled them up so we have our 30 competitors!

Everyone's name has been fed into random.org and the results are below. I'll send a PM in a few moments with the payments details but in the mean time, good luck everyone!

Not only that but you're also the winner! Congratulations. I'll get your winnings across as soon as I get everyone's money in. In the meantime, would you like to PM your paypal or bank details so I can get it to you?

I think that's only the 2nd time I've ever used Paypal.

Anyone got a link for Gamblers Anonymous?

Fucking shitty bastard PayPal. My payment bounced because I didn't set up a direct debit with my bank, so I now seem to owe PayPal £3, or it's dollar equivalent. So, it says I can make an immediate card payment instead, so I add a card, try to make the payment and get 'The amount you have entered exceeds the add or withdraw funds limit.'

What the fucking fuck. IT'S £3, NOT £3,000,000.
