10 Most Exciting WWE Royal Rumble Finishes
1. Shawn Michaels Vs. The Undertaker - 2007
This year's Royal Rumble looks like it will be a great one, with enough stars and intrigue to make the match even more exciting that usual. Best ever, though? It'll have to go a long way to beat the 2007 Royal Rumble.
The entirety of the 2007 match was exciting (come on, it's the only Rumble with Sabu), but the end was what made it legendary. The final four men in the bout were Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Edge, and Randy Orton. The reigning WWE World Tag Team Champions, Edge and Orton teamed up to try and ensure that they'd be the last men standing, but eventually they ran afoul of each other. That gave Michaels the opportunity to toss both men out of the ring.
That left HBK and Undertaker, and the greatest finishing sequence in Rumble history. For nearly ten minutes, the two men battled in what was ultimately a prelude to their two classic WrestleMania matches but was a thrilling sequence in its own right. Undertaker hit a chokeslam and Michaels hit Sweet Chin Music, but when he tried to repeat the maneuver, Undertaker caught him and dumped him over the top rope for his first Rumble win.
