The Royal Rumble 2019 is in the bag and what an event it was! In front of 43,000+ people at Chase Field, WWE began the road to WrestleMania in fantastic fashion. The Royal Rumble is vital because it usually helps build serious momentum and interest for WWE in their peak period in a year.
This is the time where a lot more casual fans tune in, former fans tune in and more often than not, non-fans too. Doing the Royal Rumble right does wonders because it helps to get people talking and start watching the product. More often than not between 2011-2017, WWE made major errors in their Royal Rumble match winners. This isn’t to say that the period didn’t have great WrestleMania events, because they did, but they could have been even better in the build-up if they got it right.
Thankfully, WWE got it right in 2019. With two fan-favorite superstars winning the Royal Rumble, feel-good moments and more, the event was an exciting one from start to finish. However, there were a bunch of superstars who shined more than the rest, and we take a look at them.
