Introduction
The main event of the 2019 Royal Rumble was once again the men. In the match, Seth Rollins last eliminated the 2018 Greatest Royal Rumble winner Braun Strowman to go onto Wrestlemania. Rollins and Strowman were also the Iron Man & Most Eliminations respectively. He faced Brock Lesnar and was victorious in the match.
Not the most memorable Royal Rumble, it does feature at the time the last appearances of three former world champions – Jinder Mahal, Dean Ambrose and Kurt Angle, but it’s a pretty solid match to hunt out for.
It also possibly has the worst entrant in Royal Rumble History. No Way Jose spent 3 seconds in the match, and has not been in a match since.
