Hey everyone, today I’m diving into the “Royal Rumble Winners” – yeah, the wrestling event. I’ve been a fan for years, and I’ve always kept track of who won and how they did it. So, I thought I’d share my little project with you all.
First off, I started by gathering all the data I could find. I went through years of Royal Rumble results. I remember watching Shawn Michaels back in ’95, and then Vince McMahon in ’99 – those were some crazy matches. And of course, who could forget Chris Benoit in 2004, Rey Mysterio in 2006, Edge in 2021, and Rhea Ripley just last year in 2023? These guys all started from the first two spots and still managed to win. Talk about beating the odds!
My Process
- Collecting Data: I started by writing down every winner’s name and the year they won. Then, I noted their entry number. This was crucial to see if there was any pattern.
- Organizing the Information: I made a simple table to keep things organized. It was pretty straightforward – columns for the wrestler’s name, the year, and their entry number.
- Analyzing the Data: This is where it got interesting. I started looking for patterns. Like, how many wrestlers won from the first two spots? How many times has someone won more than once?
I found out that John Cena and Shawn Michaels have each won twice. It’s kind of sad that Michaels won’t win another one since he retired in 2010, but Cena? He might still have a chance. And Yokozuna’s win in ’93? That was a big deal – he was on a roll that year!
Recently, I saw that in 2024, Edge and Bianca Belair were the winners. That got me thinking – who else is likely to win again? It’s always fun to speculate. I also updated my table with the latest winners and their entry numbers, keeping my data fresh.
What I Found
It’s really cool to see how many different wrestlers have won over the years. It’s not just about being the biggest or strongest; sometimes it’s about strategy and endurance. Winning from the first or second spot is super rare, which makes those victories even more impressive.
This whole thing started as a way to kill some time, but it turned into a fun little project. I love looking back at all the past matches and seeing how the Royal Rumble has evolved. It’s like a trip down memory lane every time I update my list.
So, there you have it. That’s how I’ve been keeping track of Royal Rumble winners. It’s a simple hobby, but it’s pretty rewarding for a wrestling fan like me. If you’re into wrestling, maybe you can start your own list. It’s a fun way to engage with the sport’s history.
