Watching the Rumble live for the first time, I became convinced that the Rumble isn't booked to the level of detail I would have expected. There were too many moments where it made little sense for a wrestler to be knocked out when he was, as opposed to a few moments later. Diesel is a particular example, unless they were trying to get the stare down moment in particular.

Nash coming out as Diesel especially doesn't make sense considering he was Nash just a few years ago as part of the nWo. But, then again, the WWE seems to assume we don't remember what happened more than a few months ago.
With Morrison it was a gamble....if he landed the spot, then it's one of the coolest things ever seen in a Rumble, if not then he's written off as eliminated as he wasn't going deep in the Rumble anyways.

As for Nash, he is probably not going to be a full-time wrestler with the WWE, more like a backstage agent, so just for nostalgia they had him come out as Diesel, which I'm fully fine with.
