Properly booking the Final Four in the Royal Rumble should be the most important aspect of the match, but WWE forgot the memo in these instances.

Of course, hindsight is a wonderful thing, and looking back at the brutal beating and head trauma Foley suffered at Royal Rumble 1999 is even more disturbing when we now know what we know about concussions and brain injuries.

The Royal Rumble officially begins "The Road to WrestleMania." One of the most iconic pay-per-view events in the WWE, the Royal Rumble pits 30 participants against one another to determine who will be the last one standing in the ring. In 2025, Cody Rhodes will look to match "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's record of three Royal Rumble wins.
