5 must watch moments from Royal Rumble 2019

Royal Rumble 2019 is done and dusted. Without an iota of doubt, the first PPV of January was one of the best PPVs put forward by WWE in the past few years. From the opening match between Asuka and Becky Lynch to the main event, the show was filled with excitement.

Even without significant returns, WWE managed to keep the fans entertained, driving home a major fact that WWE does not need part-timers anymore.

There were various moments throughout the night that kept the fans engaged. Be it Naomi's save to comical elimination, or Jeff Jarret's face-off with Elias; there have been many things that would not escape from the hearts of a WWE fan. In this article, we will be taking a look at a few of the must-watch moments from the recently concluded Royal Rumble.

#5 The ending sequence of the SmackDown Live women's championship match

The women in WWE are showing that they are no longer pushovers or bathroom breaks. The SmackDown Live women's championship match headlined TLC 2018, and now it kicked off Royal Rumble.

The battle between Asuka and Becky Lynch was nothing short of an exceptional bout. There were brilliant counters and dangerous spots throughout the match.

However, the ending sequence of the match was the icing on the cake. The Empress of Tomorrow and The Man made counters after counters. After failing to get the fall after performing a super beckxploder, Lynch tried to do the leg drop from the top rope. This was followed by numerous counters - most notable ones were Asuka doing the dis-arm-her and Lynch doing the Asuka Lock.

After a plethora of counters, Asuka locked Lynch in a modified neck lock, forcing Lynch to tap out. Even if you are not interested in watching the full match, give the final sequence a go. It is well worth it.
