2020 WWE ROYAL RUMBLE PARTICIPANTS’ ROYAL RUMBLE HISTORY

 

 

As I do every month, it’s time to look at this weekend’s Royal Rumble Pay-Per-View and see the history of all of the participants, as well as stats for 2020. As of press time, the entire Rumble Participant List for either match has not been released, so for simplicity’s sake, every active wrestler on the WWE Roster will be listed with their Rumble history in case they get added to the Rumble Match. To see the entire 32-year history of the Royal Rumble, visit the Rumble History Page HERE & for the History of the actual Royal Rumble Match, go HERE. And for any feedback or comments about this, comment below or tweet me (@hbkid718). Thanks.

Since no Kickoff Match has been announced, here are the facts. The wrestlers to compete on a Kickoff Show are: Scott Dawson, Kalisto, & Bobby Roode the last 2 years in a row, Chad Gable, Kalisto, Buddy Murphy, Shinsuke Nakamura, Rezar, Rusev, & Akira Tozawa (2019), Karl Anderson, Lince Dorado, Jack Gallagher, Luke Gallows, Drew Gulak, Gran Metalik, Mojo Rawley, & Dash Wilder (2018), Sasha Banks, Alexa Bliss, Cesaro, Nia Jax, Becky Lynch, Naomi, Natalya, & Sheamus (2017), Big E & Kofi Kingston (2015), The Miz (2013), Heath Slater (2012), & Curt Hawkins & R-Truth (2011). The Raw Tag Team Titles were defended in a Kickoff Match in 2017 & 2019, the United States Title were defended in a Kickoff Match in 2013 & 2019, & the Cruiserweight Title was defended in 2019.

Since no Opening Matches have been announced, here are the facts about it. If a Royal Rumble opens, it will be the 1st time in WWE History. If a Women’s Match opens, it will be the 2nd year in a row, Asuka & Becky Lynch’s 2nd opener in a row, & they will be the 1st wrestlers since The Big Show to compete in back-to-back Royal Rumble openers, or will be Lacey Evans’ 1st Royal Rumble opener, & Bayley’s 2nd opener & 1st since 2017. If a Singles Match opens, it will be the 1st 1-on-1 Match to open a Royal Rumble since Dean Ambrose VS Kevin Owens in 2016. If the Universal Title opens, it will be the 1st ever Universal Title Match to open a Royal Rumble, but the 1st Men’s Championship Match to open a Royal Rumble since AJ Styles VS Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn in a Handicap Match in 2018, but will be Daniel Bryan & Bray Wyatt’s 1st opener since their last match against each other in 2014.

Since no Main Event has been announced, here are the facts about it. If any match but the Royal Rumble main events, it will be the 1st time since The Rock VS CM Punk in 2013 that a Non-Rumble Match or a WWE Title Match main evented the Royal Rumble & will be Bray Wyatt’s 1st main event since 2016 & Daniel Bryan’s 1st main event since 2015 . If a Royal Rumble Match main events, it will be the 7th year in a row, & the 27th in History. It will be the 2nd main event in a row for Aleister Black, King Corbin, Big E, Elias, Samoa Joe, Kofi Kingston, Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, Rey Mysterio, Shinsuke Nakamura, Randy Orton, Braun Strowman, & Dolph Ziggler, & if they are in it, Mustafa Ali, Andrade, Shelton Benjamin, Apollo Crews, Pete Dunne, Johnny Gargano, Curt Hawkins, No Way Jose, Jinder Mahal, & Titus O’Neil. If the Women’s Royal Rumble main events, it will be the 1st time since 2018 for Sasha Banks, Dana Brooke, Carmella, Sonya Deville, Lana, Sarah Logan, Liv Morgan, Naomi, Natalya, Mandy Rose, Kairi Sane, & Tamina, & everyone else’s 1st main event. It will be the 1st main event since 2017 for Roman Reigns & Rusev, & if they are in the Rumble, The Big Show, Cesaro, Jack Gallagher, Kalisto, The Miz, Mojo Rawley, & Sami Zayn. It will be the 1st main event since 2016 for Erick Rowan, & if they are in the match, Kane & R-Truth. If they are in the match, it will be the 1st main event since 2015 for Zack Ryder, 2014 for The Usos, 2013 for Bo Dallas & Heath Slater, & 2009 for Brian Kendrick.

Also, as of right now, Roman Reigns & King Corbin are scheduled to do double duty by competing in a match & the Rumble match. Therefore, it will be the 10th year in a row someone competed twice at a Royal Rumble. And to avoid redundancy, the wrestlers will only be listed under their respective matches, and not in the Rumble, but I will refer to their Rumble history.

STRAP MATCH FOR THE WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP: DANIEL BRYAN VS WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION BRAY WYATT

This will be the 47th WWE or Universal Championship Match in Royal Rumble History & 30th year in a row, & the 1st WWE Championship Match of 2020. This will be the 1st time since 2016 that there will be only 1 WWE Championship Match at the Royal Rumble. The WWE or Universal Title has changed hands 9 times with the last Title Change taking place in 2017 when John Cena defeated AJ Styles. This will be the 1st Strap Match of 2020, the 1st since Sheamus VS Mark Henry at Extreme Rules on May 19, 2013, the 2nd one in Royal Rumble History & the 1st at the Royal Rumble since Sable VS Luna Vachon in 1999. This will be Daniel Bryan’s 7th Royal Rumble PPV & 2nd in a row, but 8th match since he competed twice in 2013 & will be his 3rd WWE or World Heavyweight, or Universal Championship Match at the Royal Rumble & the 2nd year in a row, which is the 3rd year in a row that someone will be competing in back-to-back WWE or Universal Championship Matches. He will be the 1st wrestler in Royal Rumble History to compete for the WWE Title & then the Universal Title at back-to-back Royal Rumble PPVs. If he competes in the Rumble, it will be his 4th Royal Rumble Match & 1st since 2015. In his 3 Appearances, he lasted 39 Minutes & 1 Second & has eliminated 5 wrestlers. This will be Bray Wyatt’s 6th Royal Rumble PPV, & 1st since 2018. This will be his 1st Non-Rumble Match since he wrestled Daniel Bryan in 2014 & his 1st ever Title Match at the Royal Rumble. If he also competes in the Rumble, it will be his 5th Royal Rumble Match & 2nd in a row. In his 4 Appearances, he has lasted 1 hour, 57 minutes, & 34 seconds, & has eliminated 12 wrestlers. Daniel Bryan VS Bray Wyatt will be the 2nd or 3rd match in Royal Rumble History to take place multiple times after The Big Show VS Brock Lesnar (2002 & 2014) & Becky Lynch VS Asuka (2019 & 2020).This will be both Bryan & Wyatt’s 1st ever Strap Match in their career. This will be the 6th 1-on-1 Match between Daniel Bryan & Bray Wyatt in their career, with their 1st match taking place at Tribute to The Troops on December 28, 2013, which was won by Bryan, & their last match prior to the Royal Rumble taking place at Survivor Series on November 24, 2019, which was won by Wyatt, so therefore in their 5 previous matches, Daniel Bryan won 2 matches, & Bray Wyatt has won the last 3 matches in a row.
