With Sasha coming out #1, I thought she'd at least get to the final 3 or 4.

They rehearse that whole match so that’s far less important.I was just telling my girlfriend that it's wise to stagger good wrestlers and ring generals throughout the rumble...and then Banks was tossed almost immediately. I thought for sure they'd leave her in there until you get a chance to do a final 4 staredown

Both times Sasha has been in the rumble she was #1.
I think the men do that, but the women they rehearse the whole match. Alicia Fox got hurt doing it once. They actually had other "legends" on hand in case they decided to use them (Aksana and Jillian Hall among them. Io Shirai was there too.Shit happens though. I would assume they always want somebody in there that can carry the torch if needed.
I believe that they rehearse the bigger spots and the action that involves current/future feuds, but 90 percent of the Rumble seems like filler to me. It's mostly people standing around looking at each other, confused as to what they should be doing...just waiting out their 1 cue for the night. At least that's how the women's rumble was the other night. I had a hard time paying attention to the men's cuz the show was so bad I tuned out by then, but the men's could've been equally bad.
