To be fair, any women who won the 2018 women's Royal Rumble would have made this list except Beth Phoenix (Phoenix was also a part of the 2010 Royal Rumble). The 2018 women's Royal Rumble was the first time WWE conducted a Royal Rumble exclusive to the women as a part of the ongoing Women's Revolution. The match was well deservingly the main event of the pay-per-view.

One of the most significant focal points of this match was the undefeated streak of Asuka. Asuka was never beaten in her WWE run thus far, and she had to overcome 29 other superstars to maintain this.

Thus the WWE Universe was thrilled at the possibility of a "technical" snap of her Streak. However, in the end, The Empress of Tomorrow eliminated Nikki Bella to become the first ever Women's Royal Rumble winner.
