All first eliminations in WWE Royal Rumble history

The first Royal Rumble match was held in 1988

The Royal Rumble match is a pro-wrestling match featuring Battle Royal rules, where competitors eliminate others by throwing them over the top rope. Typically, 30 participants take part, with two competitors starting the match and new wrestlers entering every 90 seconds until all 30 are inside the squared ring.

Since its inception in 1988, the Rumble match has created some of the most iconic moments, and multiple winners have gone on to win the title. However, in the beginning, the PLE only featured men’s Rumble matches, but from 2018 the PLE started featuring two matches in both the men’s and women’s divisions.

Winning the Rumble match is considered a huge achievement, especially for those who enter early and demonstrate extraordinary endurance, resilience, and athleticism by outlasting the competition.

While multiple WWE stars have entered at the number one spot, but few stars have risen to the challenge. While a select few have gone on to win the Rumble match from this position, others haven’t been so fortunate.

For the unlucky ones who are eliminated first, their dreams of challenging for the title and headlining WrestleMania are shattered in an instant. Here we take a look at the list of such stars who were eliminated first in the Royal Rumble match.
