Women's Royal Rumble Match - WWE Royal Rumble 2022
Trending
The 2022 Women's Royal Rumble Match may be the most interesting edition of the contest. Last year's iteration was one of the best, with Bianca Belair winning from the #3 spot and lasting over 57 minutes, which was a record for the bout. This year, Belair can make further history by becoming the first back-to-back winner of the Women's Rumble.
The EST's story is not the only intriguing part of this matchup. WWE made the strange decision to announce a slate of returning superstars for this year. WWE Hall of Famers like Lita and The Bella Twins will make history by entering the contest. Kelly Kelly, Michelle McCool and Summer Rae will also all return in this year's Rumble.

The announced name that has caused the most buzz is IMPACT Knockouts World Champion Mickie James. James was released from the promotion in April 2021 amid controversy. The former WWE Superstar being the champ for another promotion marks the company's first time opening "the forbidden door".
The most talked about possible return for the Women's Rumble right now is Ronda Rousey. The UFC Hall of Famer hasn't wrestled for WWE since WrestleMania 35 and her return would be a real shot in the arm for the promotion. There have also been names like Asuka, Kairi Sane and Bayley mentioned to come back on the show.
Superstars like Sasha Banks, Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan all have a dark horse chance of winning as well. This means it is just not the surprises that can be the victor of this matchup. With so many possible winners, it has taken the unpredictability off the charts.
The women have delivered memorable Rumbles over the course of the past four years. However, 2022 may be the most compelling edition. With so many huge surprises reported on or rumored, the Women's Royal Rumble Match had the best buildup to any match at WWE Royal Rumble 2022.
