10 Greatest In-Ring Alliances In WWE Royal Rumble History
2. The Wyatt Family - 2016
The Wyatt Family was once full of so much potential, yet ended up being one of the greatest modern failures of WWE. Despite talking a good game and being presented as a credible threat, the faction was often on the end of 50-50 booking. And that was when they were lucky enough to win at all.
There weren't many glimmers of hope for the group by 2016, which made their teamwork in the Rumble match that much more enjoyable. Without Bray Wyatt, the family held the fort and eliminated seven competitors in the process.
That all changed when Brock Lesnar entered the match, though. One by one, 'The Beast' over-powered The Wyatt Family. Braun Strowman held out the longest but received some stiff knees and clotheslines for his efforts.
Fans of the group enjoyed the portions of the Rumble when The Wyatt Family took control, even though it was a bit disappointing to see Bray arrive a little too late for them to all be in the match legally. At least everyone got to witness Strowman, Luke Harper, and Erik Rowan take out 'The Beast Incarnate.'
Sadly, from then on, it was back to the status quo for The Wyatt Family, including an embarrassing showdown with The Rock at WrestleMania 32.
