Ranking EVERY Royal Rumble WWE Championship Match From Worst To Best

2. The 1992 Royal Rumble

Royal Rumble

All the praise that's ever been dished out to the glorious 1992 Royal Rumble is earned. Thus, so too is its place high up on this list.

The match has all the makings of a WWE Championship classic - believable challengers, the insane workrate of the eventual winner, and drama for days that dictated the future direction of the prize and company as a result. It's a masterclass of the genre, and a masterful encounter on its own terms.
