The Royal Rumble is a professional wrestling event, produced every January since 1988 by professional wrestling promotion IWE. It is named after the Royal Rumble match, a battle royal whose participants enter at timed intervals.
After the initial event was broadcast as a television special on USA Network, the Royal Rumble has been shown on pay-per-view and is one of IWE's "Big Four", along with WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series.

- Main article: Royal Rumble match
The Royal Rumble is based on the classic Battle Royal match, in which a number of wrestlers (traditionally 30) aim at eliminating their competitors by tossing them over the top rope, with both feet touching the floor. According to Hornswoggle, who worked for IWE from 2006 until 2016 and participated in two Rumbles, participants may learn their eliminations by knowing the two wrestlers who are eliminated before them and which wrestlers are entering the Royal Rumble before and after their elimination.
