On Sunday, January 26,WWE Royal Rumble 2020will showcase the third ever all-womenRoyal Rumble.
2018 even gave usEvolution, an all-women PPV that was a rousing success.
It wasnt the weirdest thing in retrospect.
After all,Kwang was the 32X versions secret boss character.
McMahons Corporation was feuding with DX and he decided to use that to his advantage.
On one edition ofRaw, Vince put together the Corporate Royal Rumble.
Chyna made a beeline for Mark Henry and quickly threw him out of the ring.
She then turned around and saw Steve Austin waiting for her.
A clothesline knocked her to the outside and Henry practically no-sold his loss by laughing at Chynas misfortune.
Their rivalry was forgotten about immediately, as Chyna turned heel on Triple H the day after.
AtRoyal Rumble 2000, they had a triple threat match with Hardcore Holly rounding it out.
Jericho ended up winning and becoming the sole champion.
Chyna appeared at #17 and spent the next half a minute fighting Jericho.
With her two appearances combined, Chyna was in the Royal Rumble for just over a minute.
The battle royal was bungled from the beginning.
The entrances happened all together at the end of a ten-minute Kid Rock medley.
In the 2010 Royal Rumble, Beth Phoenix appeared at #6.
#5 was the Great Khali, who clobbered Punk with a chop to the skull.
Phoenix followed, surprising many, and stood up to Khali, ready to fight.
There was never any follow-up to Beth Phoenixs appearance in the match.
KHARMA (2012)
Kharma is an odd case to say the least.
Formerly known as Awesome Kong, she left TNA for WWE as a potential game-changer.
They hyped her up with creepy vignettes that showed her breaking Barbie dolls and laughing psychotically.
Kharma suddenly fell to her knees and started crying.
It turned out she was actually pregnant and she needed to be written off TV ASAP.
Then came the 2012 Royal Rumble.
This meant an influx of guest and joke entries, like all three commentators.
Kharma arrived at #21 and got a huge ovation for clotheslining Cole.
The womens roster has certainly grown over the years, but 30 women?
Not exactly viable, especially with both womens champions sitting this one out for obvious reasons.
This time they actually had entrances and recognition!
They also tossed in NXT appearances by Ember Moon and Kairi Sane.
everyone ganging up on Nia Jax due to her size).
While not as good as its predecessor, it did land its ending.
When Nia Jax appeared, she beat Lana unconscious for the hell of it.
If Lana was unable to compete, there should be someone to take her spot.
Her pleas were answered and Becky was allowed to take part in the Rumble.
Not only did she win, but she ended up winning the main event of the following WrestleMania.
Treating Beckys behavior with Lana as precedent, Nia entered at #30 instead of R-Truth.
Nia confronted Randy Orton and teased an alliance with Rey Mysterio, only to turn on him.
Orton and Mysterio teamed up against her and eliminated her from the match.
The aftermath of this was short and ended abruptly.
Nia antagonized Dean Ambrose the followingRawwith hints that the two were going to have a feud.
Their Royal Rumble counterpart is Aztec Warfare, a 20-person match where elimination only occurs via pinfall or submission.
The first Aztec Warfare featured appearances by Ivelisse and Sexy Star.
The second version of the match had Taya.
