5 instances when Royal Rumble winners failed to win the WrestleMania Main Event

4- Edge (2010)

Edge

This was one of the prime examples of the superstar making his return and winning the Rumble. Edge was put off for almost six months due to injury and returned as the 29^th entrant of the match. He battled the lights of John Cena, Batista and Shawn Michaels in the final four and eventually won by eliminating Cena.

Edge then chose Chris Jericho as his opponent for WrestleMania after Jericho defeated Undertaker at Elimination Chamber to win the World Heavy Weight championship.

In a match were counters flew in both directions, Jericho was the man who went out with the title after a code breaker. But Jericho didn’t walk out of the arena as Edge speared him into the barricade after the match.
