One of Braun Strowman's biggest WWE victories came during the inaugural WWE Saudi Arabia pay-per-view event known as The Greatest Royal Rumble in April 2018.

The event marked the beginning of a 10-year deal between the Saudi General Sports Authority and WWE to produce a series of events and pay-per-views each year.

The first such event was The Greatest Royal Rumble which was headlined by a 50-man Royal Rumble match to determine the winner of the WWE Greatest Royal Rumble trophy and the Greatest Royal Rumble Championship.

Normally, a traditional Royal Rumble match features only 30 WWE Superstars. However, the 50-man Greatest Royal Rumble match currently holds the record for the largest WWE Royal Rumble match to date.

After entering as the 41st entrant, Braun Strowman last eliminated Big Cass by countering a big boot attempt and throwing his opponent over the top rope to win the Greatest Royal Rumble match.

In addition to winning the Greatest Royal Rumble Trophy and Greatest Royal Rumble Championship, Braun Strowman also set the record for the most eliminations in a single Royal Rumble match at 13, beating Roman Reigns' previous record of 12 eliminations.
