WWE Royal Rumble: List of Superstars with most appearances

The Royal Rumble match is one of the most exciting matches in the pro-wrestling industry. The match has a separate fan base and carries great anticipation. Rumble matches originated in 1988 and have been held annually since then in WWE.

The match has witnessed a total of 45 winners (38 men’s and 7 women’s). Rumble matches are purely based on eliminating opponents by tossing them over the top rope until the last one survives in the ring. Here is a list of WWE Superstars who appeared in the most number of Royal Rumble matches in WWE history.
