Royal Rumble is one of the most exciting matches in the pro-wrestling industry and has a separate fanbase. The stipulation of the Royal Rumble match is the one which makes it so interesting and exciting. The Royal Rumble match is usually held with 30 contestants, where it begins with two members in the ring and the other 28 members enter the ring with a 90-second time limit between each entrance.
