WWE Royal Rumble 2022: Ranking and grading every match

#3 Women's Royal Rumble Match

The 30-woman Royal Rumble Match was booked decently for most of it, even though WWE did make a few baffling decisions. Sasha Banks was eliminated shockingly early by Queen Zelina. It looked like she would be the 'Iron Woman' of the match after entering first.

We saw so many women from the Divas era make their returns in the Rumble, with all of them getting warm welcomes. Summer Rae and Natalya continued their online beef, while Cameron was tied into the ongoing rivalry between Naomi and Sonya Deville.

Mickie James came out to her current theme "Hardcore Country" and had a solid stint in the match, while Nikki A.S.H. viciously assaulted her fellow superhero, Mighty Molly.

Brie Bella got a measure of revenge on Nikki by eliminating her the same way she was from the 2018 Women's Rumble match.

Liv Morgan and Bianca Belair did well to last long after being among the first 10 entrants. However, once Ronda Rousey came out at No.28, there was no doubt over who would win. She dominated her way to a victory, eliminating Charlotte Flair in the end.

There was enough excitement throughout this match, but the current female roster did not shine as much as it should have. Regardless, the 2022 Women's Royal Rumble Match had enough memorable moments to exceed its male counterpart by some distance.

Grade: B
