#3 Alamodome attendance
Two decades after the Rumble last visited San Antonio, the Alamodome will once again play host to the big four pay-per-view. It's been a long time since we've seen a non-WrestleMania event be held in a stadium, so you know this is a big deal.
The sheer magnitude of the situation and the crowd will instantly improve the quality of this event when people look back on it in the years to come.
After all, it just makes the road to Mania seem that much bigger. The Alamodome itself really is a historic place and given it's history, the WWE have struck gold by being able to secure the venue for the Rumble.
After all, just imagine 60,000 people counting down from ten to one whenever somebody is due to come out.
Even better, just picture the aforementioned returns being received by a thunderous ovation.
It definitely seems like one of those stadiums where the atmosphere will be enclosed, creating a cauldron-like situation where the wrestlers will look like modern day gladiators. That in itself is quite ironic given that that was the theme for the 2016 edition of the show, but we digress.
Onto the man who can steal the whole audience's attention with just a few catchphrases.
