WWE Royal Rumble 2024: Men's Royal Rumble Full Match Recap

The 2024 Royal Rumble kicked off with a bang, electrifying the crowd as Jey Uso entered the ring as the first competitor. The cheers were deafening, a testament to his undeniable fan favorite status. Jimmy Uso followed at #2, and the brothers immediately faced off, their expressions a captivating mix of love, rivalry, and determination. Right hands flew, trading blows in a display of fraternal fury.



Grayson Waller, ever the showman, sauntered down to the ring at #3, microphone in hand. He declared his grand plan to host a mid-Rumble edition of "The Grayson Waller Effect," his signature talk show segment. However, his ego trip was short-lived. Before he could even step through the ropes, he got unceremoniously booted off the apron by a well-placed kick. Chaos erupted as Jey, momentarily distracted by his brotherly battle, nearly tossed Jimmy out. That's when Waller saw his opportunity. He lunged at Jimmy, whispering a proposition of alliance before disappearing into the crowd.

The surprises kept coming at #4, as the ever-popular Andrade el Idolo made his grand return to the Rumble! Rumors had been swirling for weeks, and the fans erupted in jubilation as the charismatic luchador strutted into the ring. Waller, still smarting from his ejection, attempted to engage Andrade, but his advances were met with a thunderous spinning elbow. Andrade then proceeded to showcase his signature "Three Amigos" suplex sequence, only to be thwarted by Waller's impressive resilience.

The action intensified with the arrival of Carmelo Hayes at #5, marking his electrifying Royal Rumble debut. The young upstart wasted no time impressing the audience with his athleticism and agility. He quickly joined forces with Jey Uso, double-teaming Andrade in a display of opportunistic strategy. Their alliance proved effective, as Hayes capitalized on the chaos to eliminate Waller with a well-timed clothesline over the top rope.



Shinsuke Nakamura's entrance at #6 sent the crowd into a frenzy. The Japanese superstar's iconic theme song filled the arena, and the fans sang along with gusto. Nakamura, ever the stoic warrior, locked horns with Carmelo Hayes in a captivating clash of styles.

The ever-opportunistic Santos Escobar entered the fray at #7, his eyes immediately fixed on his former ally, Andrade. However, Escobar's attempt at a reunion was met with a cold shoulder. Undeterred, he shifted his focus to eliminating Andrade, but his plan backfired as he almost got tossed over the top rope himself.

The Rumble took a dark turn with the arrival of Karrion Kross and his ever-present companion, Scarlett, at #8. Kross, a force of nature, immediately targeted Jey Uso, laying him flat with a brutal suplex. Jimmy, seeing his brother down, charged into the fray, only to be met with Kross's relentless onslaught. Nakamura, caught in the crossfire, also suffered the wrath of Kross's monstrous right hands.

Dominik Mysterio, Rey Mysterio's son, entered the ring at #9, but his youthful exuberance was quickly met with Kross's brutal suplexes and thunderous right hands. The scene was one of stark contrast: the young Mysterio struggling against the seemingly unstoppable Kross.

Finally, at #10, Carlito, the "Coolest Hand in the Game," swaggered into the ring, apple in hand. He immediately took out Dominik Mysterio and pulled out his signature fruit, much to the amusement of the crowd. Santos Escobar, still smarting from his earlier encounter, attempted to eliminate Carlito, but the wily veteran used his agility and the ring ropes to stay alive. In a hilarious twist, Carlito even managed to spit the apple in Escobar's eye.

The Royal Rumble continued to sizzle as Bobby Lashley entered at #11, bringing his signature power and intensity to the ring. He immediately speared Shinsuke Nakamura, sending the former Intercontinental Champion crashing to the canvas. Andrade el Idolo wasn't spared either, succumbing to a thunderous chokeslam from Lashley. Even Dominik Mysterio, cowering in the corner, couldn't escape the wrath of "The All Mighty." Lashley's spear caught the young Mysterio despite his desperate pleas.

Just as it seemed their clash was imminent, chaos erupted. Carlito, attempting to stay alive on the apron, was unceremoniously knocked off by Lashley. In a display of raw power, Lashley then hoisted Kross over his shoulder and sent him flying over the top rope, eliminating the dominant competitor!

However, the celebration was short-lived. The Authors of Pain, accompanied by their manager Paul Ellering, stormed down to the ringside, protesting Kross's elimination. While officials argued with them, Kross capitalized on the distraction, pulling Lashley off the apron and eliminating him in a controversial move. Fueled by anger, Lashley retaliated, launching into a brawl with Kross. The Authors of Pain joined the fray, and soon, The Street Profits entered the chaos, adding another layer of mayhem to the already unpredictable Rumble.
