WWE: Royal Rumble 2018: How does the event work?

The night of 28. on the 29th. January the Royal Rumble 2018 will take place. How exactly does the WWE spectacle work? Where can you watch the event? SPOX provides all important information about the Royal Rumble.

Since 1988 the Royal Rumble has been held once a year. Traditionally, the WWE event takes place in January. In 2018, the spectacle takes place at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. In addition to the men’s fight, there is also a rumble match between the women for the first time.

The Royal Rumble can be watched live on the internet. The WWE Network offers a stream that starts at 0am. After the Kickoff-Sow the fight starts at 1 o’ clock. This way, this way.

Sky Select also shows the Royal Rumble live. The live stream costs 18 Euro.

The highlight of the Main Event is the Royal Rumble Match. Normally, 30 wrestlers fight for victory. So far there have been two exceptions: The first edition had 20 wrestlers, in 2011 there were 40.

At the beginning of the fight, there are already two players in the ring, and every 90 seconds another participant joins in. The goal is to be the last man in the ring. Participants who are carried over the top ring rope and touch the ground with both feet are eliminated.

However, it is in accordance with the rules to leave and re-enter the ring between the ropes or under the ropes.

Basically it is coincidence in which order the players enter the ring. In this way, the order is drawn beforehand, and there are also occasional fights in which you can secure a cheaper starting number.

The Royal Rumble is one of WWE’s most important events and is therefore one of the Big Four. The Big Four also includes the major events SummerSlam, WrestleMania and Survivor Series. At the same time, the Royal Rumble marks the start of the Road to WrestleMania.

The winner of the Royal Rumble gets a title match for the highest league title. This will take place in the Main Event of the next WrestleMania, WWE World or WWE Universal Championship.
