#1. Worst: The awfully quick eliminations in the Women's Royal Rumble match

The Women's Royal Rumble was arguably better than the men's edition this year. The unfortunate aspect of it was that so many competitors were announced in advance, with WWE choosing to draw in viewers through pre-announced returns rather than surprise ones.

Ronda Rousey is the fifth women's Royal Rumble winner. We assume that it will be to set up a match against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38. The negative of the match, however, were the short appearances for the likes of Melina, Molly Holly, Kelly Kelly and Summer Rae.


#1. The dream match between Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar

Bobby Lashley vs. Brock Lesnar was a dream match that was finally delivered after years of anticipation. It ended with controversy after Brock Lesnar hit Bobby Lashley with the F-5, only for the referee to get knocked out.

This led to Roman Reigns popping out of nowhere and using Paul Heyman's assistance to cost Brock Lesnar the match, allowing Bobby Lashley to pick up his second WWE Championship.

Either Reigns or Lesnar was losing at the Rumble, and it's good that Bobby Lashley benefited from it all in the end.
