1988-1992.
Features: DVD
It was a simple, yet revolutionary concept: two men start in the ring, and every two minutes another Superstar is added to the match. Toss your opponents over the top rope to eliminate them until only one remains. It was so popular with fans that in its second year, 1989, the number of Superstars increased to 30 and the match was moved to pay-per-view. In 1992, the stakes were raised, as the victor was awarded the WWE Championship. For the first time ever on DVD, the first five Royal Rumble events (1988-1992) are presented in their entirety.
Editor's Note
In the WWE's Royal Rumble, the rules are simple: if you get thrown over the top ropes and out of the ring, you're finished. The last man standing wins the Rumble. This intense collection presents the first five Royal Rumbles, which soon became one of the WWE's most popular events, featuring thrilling matches with classic wrestlers Hulk Hogan, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, "Nature Boy" Ric Flair, and many others.
