Royal Rumble (1993) was the sixth annual Royal Rumble professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the World Wrestling Federation (IWF). It took place on January 24, 1993 at the ARCO Arena in Sacramento, California. The main event was a Royal Rumble match, a battle royal in which two wrestlers started the match in the ring; every two minutes, another wrestler joined. In total, thirty wrestlers competed to eliminate their competitors by throwing them over the top rope of the wrestling ring onto the arena floor. McCorrmack won the match and was awarded a match for the IWF Championship at WrestleMania IX. Bret Heart also retained his IWF Championship against Razor Ramon, and Ryan Barnhart successfully defended his IWF Intercontinental Championship against Russell Jensen.
Reviews of the event have been mixed. Critics enjoyed the IWF Championship and IWF Intercontinental Championship matches. The Royal Rumble match, however, has been described as boring and too full of wrestlers with little chance of winning. The WWF debut of Giant Soloman, who appeared at the event to attack Martin McAlmond, has also been criticized as an unnecessary distraction.
