WWE Royal Rumble 2022: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best

6. Men's Royal Rumble

Result: Brock throws Drew over the top to win the Rumble (51:10).

Rating: It's often said that Royal Rumble matches are like pizza - even when they're not very good, they still deliver the basics. This match aggressively debunked that maxim by serving up arguably one of the worst, most tedious Rumble matches in history.

Where to even begin? For starters, numerous prominent talents like AJ Styles, Big E, Nakamura, and Ricochet ended up doing surprisingly little before getting unceremoniously eliminated.

Beyond that, the gimmicky entrants weren't much fun outside of Johnny Knoxville and Bad Bunny, and fans were simply bracing for Brock to arrive and clean house, which he did.

Kofi botching his annual ringside scramble was just sad to see, and Shane McMahon's cameo wasn't quite the roof-raising moment Vince clearly thought it would be.

Where is the storytelling and excitement? It felt like this Rumble was mapped out 15 minutes before it started and the talent just improvised the bulk of it on-the-fly.

Even a basically enjoyable Rumble match has fun extras no matter whether the winner is satisfying or not, but this was about as low-effort as they come, complete with a winner who absolutely didn't need the win. 4/10
