It’s time to Rumble American style! Next week, WWE will be heading overseas to present the Greatest Royal Rumble from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. For the first time ever, the match will feature fifty wrestlers in a match that sounds like it has the potential to last about two hours unless they really lower the amount of time between entrances. In the spirit of the show, WWE has been looking back at some of the previous Royal Rumble matches throughout history, including another one today.

The ending sequence alone is worth it.

FULL MATCH - Royal Rumble Match: Royal Rumble 2012 (WWE Network Exclusive)

WWE has released the full version of the 2012 Royal Rumble on its YouTube page. The match was for a shot at one of the World Titles at WrestleMania 28, meaning it would be against either CM Punk for the WWE Championship or against Daniel Bryan for the World Heavyweight Championship. After twenty eight eliminations, the final two in the match were Sheamus and Chris Jericho, who both wound up going on to World Title matches at WrestleMania 28 anyway.

Don’t remember the show? Here’s our full review.

Opinion: I remember watching this match and thinking the ending was one of the best I had ever seen. They put together some good drama with Sheamus and Jericho, neither of whom were in the highest echelon of WWE at the time. There was some some other solid stuff in the middle though and the match was a lot of fun as a result. Throw in some good comedy and drama and you have a good Royal Rumble.
