Top 10 Threats in Royal Rumble Matches
This page highlights the top 10 biggest threats in Royal Rumble matches. These are individuals who have had multiple eliminations in matches and if these show up in a Royal Rumble then you can expect an impactful performance.
Similarly to other average based searches, I’ve split these into two groups, as well as genders. The groups are those who have entered at least 2 Royal Rumbles, and everybody else. It doesn’t impact a huge amount: the top individual for both is the same, however it has a larger impact lower down the order. Unsurprisingly, a number of these performers have gone on to win The Royal Rumble match.
