As expected Kevin Nash made his return to WWE in the Royal Rumble Match. He entered under his original WWF gimmick Diesel. Below is a section from our coverage detailing what went down:

Entrant number 32... DIESEL! 6-foot-11 300plus pounds and Big Daddy Cool enters to the loudest reception of the night and Diesel enters to get himself a piece of everyone, especially Sheamus. The crowd chant \'Let\'s Go Diesel!\' as Entrant number 33: Drew McIntyre comes out and he and Sheamus team up on Diesel and soon Rey Mysterio nails Diesel with a 6-1-9. Entrant number 34: Alex Riley w/ The Miz and Miz joins commentary and Diesel is eliminated by Wade Barrett. Riley, McIntyre and Sheamus team up on Sheamus and then out comes Entrant number 35: Big Show. Show has a bit of a face to face with Diesel as he exits (so cool :-P ) and then Show gets into the ring to take it to the oncoming Sheamus and McIntyre and Show then eliminates Ziggler.
