15 Years WWE got the Royal Rumble winner wrong

Stone Cold Royal Rumble 1997
A year too early.

1999

Vince McMahon Royal Rumble 1999
Intriguing angle, wrong winner.

Who won: Vince McMahon

Who should have won: Stone Cold Steve Austin

Though this match was centered on the Austin/McMahon feud and did its part in the match itself, Vince McMahon would drop his title opportunity the next night, with Stone Cold being awarded it anyway. So the whole thing was pointless. Stone Cold should have won.
