Royal Rumble update - 40-man rumble not liked!

Ezekiel Jackson, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel and Wade Barrett (The Corre) have been announced for the 40-Man Royal Rumble Match. This brings the confirmed count to 25 WWE Superstars, 18 from RAW and 7 from SmackDown!.

One WWE source feels the Royal Rumble match expanding from 30 to 40 men is not a good idea. “When you have 30 guys who are not over and you add ten more guys, it isn’t special,” the source said. “It’s like adding vanilla to vanilla.”
