WWE Royal Rumble 2018: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best

7. Universal Title: Brock Lesnar (C) Vs. Braun Strowman Vs. Kane

Result: Brock hits Kane with the F-5 to retain the title (10:55).

Rating: Even two matches removed from the men's Rumble, the crowd was still sleeping, but considering how utterly uninspired this match was, it's hard to blame them.

It was smartly booked as a car crash slug-fest, but the fact Brock had zero chance of losing and Kane was clearly going to eat the pin meant there was no tension or suspense. It was so inevitable it almost didn't need to be a match, really.

Still, seeing Brock and Braun leather each other was undeniably entertaining to a point, so it wouldn't be fair to call the match outright bad. It was just...there, but at least it didn't run overlong and made good on the strengths of its competitors. 5/10
