WWE Royal Rumble: 10 Awesome Moments

4. Kevin Owens Crashes Through Table Stack

The general rule of thumb is that whenever somebody takes the time and effort to set up a stack of tables in wrestling, someone is going through them. It's almost considered an affront to the mere idea if the wrestlers neglect to use such a glorious spot opportunity. This old favourite made a return at the Royal Rumble. Smartly, Kevin Owens and Dean Ambrose lined up something else the fans would have liked to see in the interim. Laying out his opponent across a bevvy of steel chairs, Owens started to climb to the top rope in an attempt to seemingly Moonsault and destroy Ambrose. It didn't work out as intended for the heel. Rising to his feet, Ambrose pushed Owens from the top rope. Rotating in mid-air, the villain absorbed a perfect back bump onto the table stack he himself had set up earlier. Owens landed flush, and the fans promptly went bananas. As it turned out, this was the finish of the match, and nobody was complaining after such a great series of big spots.
