Ranking EVERY WWE Royal Rumble Match From Worst To Best

Though Daniel Bryan broke the gimmick's longtime longevity record in a 50-man spin on the legendary gimmick and a request for the deceased Yokozuna was granted in the form of a virtually unknown sumo replacement, Greatest Royal Rumble didn't come close to living up to its name. And the match itself wasn't the only thing to fall short in Saudi Arabia.

Titus O'Neil may never again regain what little credibility he had after his entry stumble was the problematic contest's only point of significance.
