30 Amazing Stats and Facts From 30 Years of the WWE Royal Rumble

#30 years of the Royal Rumble have brought us some amazing moments 

5: Like father, like son

The ‘Million Dollar Man’ Ted DiBiase and his son Ted DiBiase Jr. hold a unique Royal Rumble record. They are the only father and son duo in the history of the Royal Rumble to reach the final four in a Rumble match.

Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

Regrettably, neither of them ever won a Royal Rumble match.


4: Almost every winner of the Royal Rumble has been a WWE Champion….

Here comes another great stat. Every winner of the Royal Rumble has gone on to become WWE Champion during their career except three unlucky WWE Superstars – Jim Duggan, Big John Studd and Lex Luger.

Since 1993, when the Rumble winner was guaranteed a title shot at Wrestlemania, Luger is the only winner to have never been WWE Champion. Oops.
