Similar to Super Show-Down, Greatest Royal Rumble was built up massively by WWE but it ended up being nothing more than a glorified PPV with storylines not really getting any significance.

The show was built around a 50-man Royal Rumble match which was as we have seen in the past a bit too much. The Battle Royal largely consisted of enhancement talent, unknown athletes from NXT and sumo wrestlers that most fans had never heard of and maybe never will.

Stars such as Rey Mysterio, Chris Jericho, and even Hornswoggle were included but it didn't really much purpose because the buildup just wasn't there and some things just didn't make sense.

The match featuring Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns in a Steel Cage for the Universal Championship concluded in controversy while AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Championship ended with a double count-out meaning zero implications for the show even if one missed it.

John Cena vs Triple H yet again and The Undertaker vs Rusev in a Casket match hardly made any sense without any stakes attached and the audiences felt bewildered more than anything about what to take away from it.
