7 great moments from the Greatest Royal Rumble
Greatest Royal Rumble was indeed an event of historic proportions. Seven championships were on the line along with the matches which featured the future Hall of Famers. Not to mention, the set and pyrotechnics were of the elite class.
The show had a lot to offer from the crowning of the Raw tag-team champions to the first ever 50-man Royal Rumble winner. Here are the seven greatest moments of the night.
#1 Triple H and John Cena commenced the show
It was the only match of the evening, which didn’t have a future storyline associated with it. Hence, WWE wisely decided to open the show with this match as two of the most decorated Superstars faced each other.
This match set the tone for the show and featured a decent volume of finishing as well as submission moves from both the opponents. Triple H maintained the Heel persona from the get-go and even mocked John Cena’s “Knuckle Shuffle”. It was good to see John Cena finally catching a breather after a string of losses in the recent past.
It is safe to say that both the competitors put on a decent opening match.
