One of the all-time classic matches, the Royal Rumble is a battle royal match at the end of the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. There are typically 30 and sometimes 40 competitors involved in this match. We begin with the first two participants.
There is a select time, predetermined, usually every three minutes, where a new participant will be introduced at the end of that time countdown. This is done until all of the involved participants have been introduced into the match.

The object is to eliminate each of the participants and have one remaining at the end. The only way to eliminate a participant is to throw that person over the top rope and have both feet land on the venue floor. The last remaining participant receives a main event title match at Wrestlemania.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
