I declare Team 11 Team Haunter!

Other numbers will brag on how their number won one year or had this guy or in a few cases that girl. But 11 is home to a man who made Rumble history and performed a feat that hasn't happen before or since and quite possibly will never happen again.

1997: Mil Mascaras

The only man to eliminate himself and therefore, the only man to not be bested by anyone in the Royal Rumble match.

ALL HAIL 11!

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

~Everybody wants to be a cat~
~Because a cat's the only cat~
~Who knows where its at~

#7 is a fascinating number in Rumble history despite never producing a winner. It has paid host to many Main Eventers, including Jerry Lawler, Diesel, Edge, Triple H, Mick Foley, and Kane. It has a history as a number for Hardcore Icons as on three different years it was held by ECW's Raven, Tommy Dreamer and Sabu. By an odd quirk, it was held by THE LETHAL WEAPON STEVE BLACKMAN on two consecutive years, in 1999 and 2000.

But most importantly, #7 has been the entry number of WWF legend :siren: JAKE "THE SNAKE," ROBERTS :siren: no less then THREE times: 1989, 1996 and 1997 all felt the venom of The Snake! And two of those are also consecutive!

Therefore, If nobody has claimed an identity for Team 7 yet, it absolutely must be TEAM EKANS
