2017 marked thওe first Royal Rumble I attended. I'm not much of a traveler -- a lot of my work I can do remotely. It's always been a bucket list item, however, so I jumped at the opportunity to go. To prepare, I re-watched every Royal Rumble event, and used the #RetroRumble hashtag (originally #RumbleRetro). I'll be bringing you these in installments of every ten years, with links to additional series.🎉 Enjoy!

You can see part one (1988-1997) at this link, part two (1998-2007) at this link, and part four (Lost Rumbles) at this link!

— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Zack Ryder had some coo▨l Nasty Boys inspired gear 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Morrison's offense just never landed. 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

That Spidey spot was great. 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Ol' Husky Harris 11

Chavo hitting like ♏ten straight supleಌxes was just fantastic 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

We're like twelve entrants in and I'm sick of𒁃 this Corre/Nexus shit 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Chris Masters had i🥂mproved 🍃a ton by this Rumble 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Nexus clears the ring. Cool dynamic 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Khali returned after a four month absence and eliminates Harris to a big pop. Mason Ryan toss🌱es him out. All⛦ Nexus again 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Booker T just blew t🐷he roof off that damn place 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Matt Striker ruined a lot of itꦬ with the "mark out mome🉐nt" 11

Booker had a great facial expression when eliminated,🧜 lol 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Hornswoggle hꦐitཧs an Attitude Adjustment on Tyson Kidd. Another dove cries. 11
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

They had a Kofi/Cena stare🐼 at the WrestleMania sign moment. Okay 11

Easily the worst first six entrants in Rumble history 🥂12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Foley having the time of his life 12

Santino and Foley 🅘battling with their gimmicks. Heh. 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Lawler throwing better dropkicks at 60something than the women are taught to thro𝔉w in WWE today 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Khali and Mahal were storyline 🐟brother-in-laws. I'm sure I blacked out that💟 trauma before, but life has no mercy. 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Hunico enters. I always wanted to land on his bike and do bunnyhops around the ring before coming back in. 💛 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The announcers wearing their gear under all their suits was pre💎tty funny 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kofi's handstand spot! THE BIKE IS RIG𒊎HT THERE ! DO SOME SWEET JUMPS!🦂 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

They loved Duggan here. Big time USA chants 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Michael Cole enters.♒ in the shape he💜's in today would have shot on Hunico and dumped him over the top rope 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

KHARMඣA! This was a cool final appearance for her 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Ziggler making Kharma look like a DIAMOND. 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

It's really a shame that Kharma couldn't help spearhead the change we saw a few ⛎years later. 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Through 🌊21 entrants, Zi🎶ggler was the only remotely possible winner 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Road Dogg was a hell of a surprise 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Barrett's theme was SHIT 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Good shoဣwing for Big Show. He's in the🤡 final four with Orton, Sheamus, Jericho 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

I don't think anybody has been better at falling to the apron and staving off eliminat🤡ion than 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Sheamus won. Thank god that's over 12
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

2013: At least it's not 2012

The Rock is in th🐈e hood, so this one isn't main eventing 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Lord almighty. Dolph and AJ were committed to th🐬e gimmick. I'll say that 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Jericho 💙being numb🌳er 2 was perfect. Was over huge and had continuity with Ziggler 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kofi with that weird corner punch where he put his legs over the top rope. Dumb🌃 🌃in a Rumble 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Goldu🍸st. He was a surprise entrant again. He and Cody go at it in a nice spot. 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Announcers: "I love the unpredictability of the Royal Rumble! Who's next!?"
*David Otunga enters* 13

Kofi lands on Tensai's back, then pogo sticks his way ba🤡ck on JBL's chair. 13

Remember the one week Bo Dallas push in 2013? 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

It's that Cena guy. 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Daniel Bryan right as he was on his way to getting over huge 💦13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The✃n we get Zack Ryder after he got himselfඣ over and was pooed all over 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The Kane anღ🎶d Daniel Bryan eliminations perfectly exemplified that great team 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Seems like we hadn't seen performers in the double digitꦓs in the ring for a few years. 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The original Sin Cara. Be damned 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

What was with that one glove Bo Dallas wore? 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The action got hot, and in 2013, Orton, Ryback, Ziggler, Jericho, Sheamus and Cena was a pretty coo🐎l way to ౠclose it 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

It's down to Ryback and Cena. Ryback seemed to be on his way 𒅌to the top.🧸 He'd never really recover. Bummer 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Cena won and set up his rematch with the Rock. Makes sense, but they really should hav💦e made a giant story of it all yꦛear 13
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

2014: The end of an Era

I'll always rem💝ember this as the last time we saw CM Punk wrestle. End of an era. 14.

— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Corporate Kane was YOLKED 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The debut of Alexander Rusev!! 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

That leap of Kofi's was unbelievable. Saved himself a🌄gain 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kofi wit♓h another save, hanging onto the ropes by 𒐪his toes. damn. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kevin Na꧋sh! I wish he'd finger poke someone over the top r𝔉ope. 14

Re🐲igns was much leaner and a lot more over in 2014 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

What a great display of the Shield 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Goldust eliminates Cody! RECEIPT! 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Sheamus with dat return pop 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

I wonder 🍒if Fandango is still this over with big crowds. Either🌠 way, Summer Rae spinning out of shot was AWESOME 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Imagine what ൲was going through a concussed and possibly staph filled CM Punk's head as he faced off with Torito 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Cesaro should have Cesa❀ro Swinged Torito out of🔯 the ring 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

This Cesaro and the one of t🌌oday aren't the same. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

JBL on "people have won from this spot" duty 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Lol. JBL gets a "you still got it chant" 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

It's so crazy to see how people's reactions shrink from yeaꦰr to year 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The returning Batista. I wonder how different this would have been booked knowing 🌠what everyone knows now 2014.
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The returning Batista. I wonder how different this would have been bo𓆉o༒ked knowing what everyone knows now 2014.
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Poor Rey. No Daniel Bryan killed it for the remaining 11 guys𓆏. Br🌠yan chants ensue. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

One of the all-time tone deaf moves in WWE histor💦y was this Royal Rumble 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

It's crazy to see Roman Reigns here. The crowd wou🌼ld have loved him winning. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

And the last time we see CM Punk in WWE is him getting moll💦ywhopped by Kane. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Sheamus, who has had like four big pus🎃hes, in at the end with Ba𒐪tista and Reigns 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Roman chants from the crowd. 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Reigns doesn't have that model h🌊air anymore. That must be the problem 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

He also looks like a ghos🤡t these days. He's eliminated. Batista wins to a chorus of boos 2014
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The tradition of♚ "LOL 🉐AT U" booking continued here. 2014
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Everybody but ONE GUYꦗ knew better. Wonder who? 14
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

2015: WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU. WE'RE TOO TONE DEAF

It seems like Miz always got a low number 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

This i💧s where Truth was using a 22 year old rap lyric beforeౠ matches 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Bubba Ray ⭕Dudley as a surprise entrant in Philly. They messed up by not getting D-Von for it. 🐠 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Did ❀anyone else groan a little when they had Truth replace D-Von here? 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The crowd chantinﷺg for D-Von, they didn't get him 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Erick R༺o💮wan kicks off what we now know as AxelMania 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Harper turning on Rowan was another tone deaf move -- a term I'll be using a lot on 𝓀this one 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Daniel Bryan with🌌 a giant pop, w꧋hich was expected 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

A Superkick party for🐠 Ziggler, followed by a sweet double jumping DDT on Kane and Show 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kane breaks the eliminations record, well deserved♊. Wasn't the year for him and Show to be in the final three though 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

I've never understood the idea ♏of forcing a babyface. Counterproductive 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Now 🎉the crowd is livid. Chan🌜ting "bullshit." It's Reigns, Kane, Show after Ambrose is eliminated 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Reigns wins, gets beaten up, 𓄧Rock makes the save. The crowd loves it, but not the endorsement of Reigns 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Knowing what we know now, Bryan would have been🦩 a poor choice to 💫win. But others wouldn't have been bad 15
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

2016: One vs. All

And I'm finally at the 2016 Rumble. Romౠan Reigns defen♓ding his WWE title. 16

— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The AJ Styles debut. UNFORGETTABLE 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Michael Cole really fucked up New Day'sꦏ troll. They made it look like Xavier would enter, but Cole announced it'd be Kofi 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Still never💖 understood thoꦓse who saw Titus as a future main player 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

R-Truth thinks this is a laꩲdder match. I shouldn't have laughed. I did. Hard 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

There were kendo sticks under the ring too 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Big E saves Kofi. Whꦕat do you think he'll do this year? Will Kofi's streak end? 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The League Of Nations attack Reigns. Re🧸member that turdy group? 🐓 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Kevin Owens limping to the ring, followed by Ambrose gives me hope for🐻 a Reigns/KO/Styles/Cena entry this year ൲16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Styles is out and the crowd is bummed 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

I still feel there is no more intimidating theme than Mark Hen🍎ry's 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Brock Lesnar comes in, the building explodes. He goes after ⛎The Wyatt Family which rꩵesults in a short, wonky feud 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Del Rio comes out to c🌸rickets after he gotᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ beat by Kalisto. I am SHOCKED 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Braun Strowman eliminated by Brock. Strowma꧋n bumps over 🔜the top like a mad man. 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

If you took everyone at♔ their peak, 2016 was pretty loaded. But most of theꦿse guys had been flushed 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Triple H appears at number 30 saying "FUCK IT⛦, WE'LL DO IT LIIIIIIV🍌E" 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Reig🌞ns is back in the match, by the way. I hate that "hang out outside the ring for 20 minute⭕s" thing 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

The faceoffs in the Ruꦬmble used to mean something 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Reigns, Ambrose, HHH, S𓄧heamus as the final four. The place erupts when Reigns is out!! 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

Gotta s๊ay, 's commentary during this match was really goꦫod 16
— Sean Ross Sapp (@SeanRossSapp)

HHH wins🐭, and the crowd is just happy it's not Reigns. 16. ON TO 2017!!!!!!!!
