In a similar fashion to 2009 Royal Rumble, Orton would win the match due to being in the ring towards the end with a stablemate. In 2009, Orton's Legacy stablemates Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase helped the Viper to his first Royal Rumble victory. In 2017, Randy Orton was in the final three with fellow Wyatt family member Bray Wyatt.

Bray Wyatt entered the 2017 Royal Rumble as the 21st entry. He was joined by a fellow member of the Wyatt family Randy Orton two entries later and a third member of the Wyatt Family, Luke Harper, came in at the 25th entry. Despite both Bray and Orton being in the Rumble at the same time, neither of them actually managed to eliminate any other competitor. While Bray Wyatt was thrown out by Roman Reigns, Orton would then pick up his first elimination by taking out Reigns to win the Royal Rumble.

Wyatt would go on to Elimination Chamber and win the WWE title from inside the Chamber itself and would face Orton for the title at Wrestlemania.
