8 things WWE subtly told us at Royal Rumble 2020: Last-minute change in Men's match winner, Lesnar's WrestleMania opponent confirmed? (26th January 2020)

#7. The Beast vs The Scottish Psychopath

His moment has come

Since this is the most noteworthy moment of the show (apart from the big return), let's address it first. The big question was as to who the person to eliminate Brock Lesnar would be. The WWE Champion entered at #1 and ended up tying the record of 13 eliminations (WWE counts the Greatest Royal Rumble in this. The actual record is 12 by Roman Reigns). However, at no point in Royal Rumble history has one person eliminated 13 consecutive superstars.

The crucial moment was when Ricochet hit Brock Lesnar with a low-blow, allowing Drew McIntyre to eliminate Brock Lesnar via a Claymore Kick - getting the biggest or second-biggest reaction of the night. That's a highlight reel moment for the ages and the staredown between Drew McIntyre and Brock Lesnar indicated that we'll be seeing The Beast Incarnate vs The Scottish Psychopath at WrestleMania 36.

WWE mentioned that McIntyre has never received a WWE or Universal Championship opportunity and what a way to change that.
