Ranking Every WWE Title Match At Royal Rumbles Worst To Best
4. Royal Rumble 2015 - Brock Lesnar Vs. John Cena Vs. Seth Rollins
Going into the 2015 Royal Rumble, many were unsure what to expect from that PPV's WWE World Heavyweight Championship triple threat contest.
Historically, triple threat matches in WWE have tendered to flounder rather than shine, and so the prospect of seeing Seth Rollins thrown into the mix with Brock Lesnar and John Cena was an intriguing one.
The end result was one of the best triple threat offerings in company history, with Rollins grasping the opportunity to mark himself as a genuine main event star as he brought the best out of both Lesnar and Cena. Of course, Brock and Big Match John more than played their own parts in this match, with a great sell job from the Beast Incarnate throwing up the possibility that maybe, just maybe, Cena or Rollins would dethrone him.
They didn't. Brock retained. But man, was it a whole lot of fun watching this story unravel.
For Seth, he'd only have to wait two more months to take his spot at the top of the mountain, famously cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase in the WrestleMania 31 main event to emerge victorious as the new WWE Champion. In a match which saw Brock Lesnar defending that prize against Roman Reigns, it was the Architect who stood tall with the WWE Title as 'Mania 31 went off the air.
