After several years of so-so and sometimes bad Royal Rumbles, WWE may have finally gotten one right again.

Well, maybe the 30 Rumble entry rubbed everyone the wrong way but most everything else was pretty good, right? There was a strong undercard and the Rumble itself had a lot of cool moments, including James Ellsworths' sacrifice for the good of WWE, so there's plenty to be favorable over.

Along with that painful looking Ellsworth spot, other exciting moments from the night include a Code Red by John Cena, a couple of Randy Orton RKO variations, and a Kevin Owens bump onto a pile of chairs that was simply sick. There were so many good spots from this show that I made the rare exception to boost the usual 10 entries up to 15.

Continue on to see the best moves from the 30th edition of the Rumble.

15. Kofi's Corner Post Spot

Kofi Kingston always does something creative in the Royal Rumble. For 2017, he flopped onto the corner ring post.

The replay made it a little easier to see what Kofi was up to. Baron Corbin was trying to swat at him, so he evaded the attack by dropping to his belly on the LED part of the ring post.
