Ranking EVERY WWE Royal Rumble Match From Worst To Best

32. The Corporate Rumble (Monday Night Raw, January 11th, 1999)

Playing out in front of an utterly rabid crowd, January 1999's Corporate Royal Rumble was substantially better than the actual event that followed.

Compiled only of members of D-Generation-X and Vince McMahon's Corporation, the reward for winning was the coveted #30 spot, and the fix was in as McMahon himself strolled out as final competitors Triple H and The Big Boss Man grappled by the ropes. The white hot twist ending provides one of the great underrated Vince reactions, alongside a typically chaotic final bump.
