5 Integral numbers that define The WWE Royal Rumble Match

#3 Longest time spent in one Royal Rumble match – 62:12 (Rey Mysterio)

One of the smallest WWE Superstars in Rey Mysterio spent the most time ever in one Royal Rumble match.

In the history of the Royal Rumble, there have been five WWE Superstars that have lasted over an hour in one Royal Rumble match. Those wrestlers include Ric Flair, Triple H, Bob Backlund, Chris Benoit, and the person who holds the record for the longest ever time in one Rumble match, Rey Mysterio, who lasted an amazing 62 minutes and 12 seconds in 2006.

For being one of the smallest competitors in the WWE at the time, Rey Mysterio definitely defied the odds to win the Royal Rumble as he was the #2 entrant with Triple H being the first one to enter the match. The match came down to Triple H, Mysterio, and Randy Orton, and Rey would eliminate both to get his WrestleMania title shot.
