10 Wrestling Matches To Entice New Fans

10. Royal Rumble 1992

The length of a Royal Rumble match might be an obstacle, but the annual 30-man over-the-top-rope extravaganza rarely fails on the interest front. The match often works as an easy introduction to the majority of the roster members that matter, as wrestlers enter and hit a couple of signature spots before either getting thrown out or resting in the corner. The constant changes in focus stop new viewers from losing interest, another important thing to avoid.

Fans go back and forth debating the best Royal Rumble match, but the 1992 edition seems to get more upvotes than most. The match covers a lot of ground that could be considered integral to pro wrestling fandom: the establishment of Ric Flair as one of the greats, a conveyor belt of famous names from the past from number one to number 30 and more. The commentary is great, the story is great, the match itself is great.

Arguments could be made for other Rumbles (1990 and 2020 in particular) but Ric Flair's headlining show and the all-star cast are a great starting point. Besides, many fans wish they could watch it again for the first time. With a tear in my eye...
