Royal Rumble 2019: 5 things we’re glad didn’t happen at the PPV

The Royal Rumble had some high and low spots which sent the crowds raving at times but booing on other occasions.

While the two Royal Rumble matches were not as exciting as one would have expected, the final outcome surely blew off the roof of the arena and sent the fans home happy.

However, there were some results which did not please the fans too much, especially the outcome of the Universal Championship match.

While WWE did make some questionable decisions in the entire event, we are glad that a few things did not happen at the event which could have made matters worse.

Keeping that in mind, we have come up with a list of five things that WWE thankfully did not pull of at the event which surely made it better to watch and also helps continue some great storylines.

Check out the list below, and share your favorite moments from the event in the comments section!

#5 Daniel Bryan scoring a clean victory

There were a lot of expectations from the match between Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles for the WWE Championship as they are the top two acts in WWE today. However, the match was sorta bland and did not offer as much as was expected since the two veteran superstars have pulled off some incredible matches in the past.

One thing we did not see coming was the unlikely involvement of Eric Rowan in the match. Rowan interfered and landed a chokeslam on AJ Styles to hand Bryan the win.

Recently we’ve heard Bryan wanting to be the most despised superstar in WWE and wants the crowd to hate him more than they hate Brock Lesnar and others. If he would have managed to win the match clean, then his heelish tactics would not have shined as well as they did with the help of Rowan.

It was surprising to see the two men unite, but at the end, we got to see Bryan win once again by cheating which will definitely help build his current character and heel image on SmackDown Live.
