Every year, WWE’s Royal Rumble rolls around, and while hard-hitting matches for championships are always a lot of fun, the highlight of the evening are both Royal Rumble matches. It’s more than seeing who’s next in line for a championship match at Wrestlemania though. It’s about those surprising moments.

During each Rumble match, we’ll see a few blasts from the past as legends are thrown into the mix. In addition, we’ll get other wrestlers making their debut from either NXT or another wrestling promotion. The Rumble plays to all types of wrestling fans, and it’s fun for everyone.

And there’s no exception for 2022’s Rumble matches. There were numerous surprises throughout the evening, and we’ve collected them throughout the evening and present them to you below.
