The Royal Rumble PPV has a long and storied history in the WWE. These Royal Rumble events, however, are the best of the bunch.

If you were asked to describe one Gene Snitsky moment from Rumble history, could you do it? You've 100% seen it, but you might've forgotten that the baby-kicking brute was even involved at all.
