Every WWE Royal Rumble 'Final Four' - From Worst To Best

25. 1990 - Hercules, Rick Rude, Mr. Perfect & Hulk Hogan

Oh no! Can even Hulk Hogan manage to hold off the combined might of a Latino guy cosplaying a Greek demigod and diabolical Minnesotan besties Mr. Perfect and Rick Rude? Spoiler: he can, and the outcome isn't exactly in doubt. The Holy Hulkster saw that the Rumble had the potential to be more than your basic battle royal, and asked the eternal question: why not Hulk Hogan? This was back before the Rumble actually had stakes, and literally just allowed the announcers to have a "Hulk Hogan literally beat 29 men at once" talking point.
