The WWE Royal Rumble is one of the "Big Four" pay-per-view events, along with WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series. The first Royal Rumble event took place in 1988, and it was created by Pat McMahon, the founder of WWE. The event has since become a staple of the WWE calendar, with a huge following worldwide.
The 2024 WWE Royal Rumble, held on January 27 in Florida, officially began the Road to WrestleMania 40 with major victories from Cody Rhodes and Bayley. Rhodes secured back-to-back Rumble wins, while Bayley set a duration record to win the women's match, with both events featuring surprise returns and high-stakes championship defenses.
