11 Hidden Meanings Behind WWE Royal Rumble 2020 Attires

WWE Superstars dive headfirst into the MCU at the Royal Rumble. What is this, a crossover episode?!

Since the inclusion of the women's iteration of the titular battle royal, the Royal Rumble pay-per-view has come with the guarantee of seeing at least 60 Superstars on one supercard. It being pro wrestling, this isn't even the first time this sort of thing has been assured.

The old WCW World War 3 supercard split the same number across three rings instead of one, but as was the Atlanta organisation's wont, that was all just for one match. WWE have at least got the two groups of 30 split across male and female variations of the Rumble, with Roman Reigns and Baron Corbin even going double duty on this year's show in an effort to overstuff an undercard that doesn't particularly need the extra run-time.

But why not, eh? The show is theoretically one of the most joyous of the year, provides a massive opportunity for many that rarely make it onto the pay-per-view stage and reflects a snapshot of the year's best and brightest for all eternity thanks to the vast expanse that is the WWE Network.

It's the Road To WrestleMania - might as well dress to impress.
