BEST ROYAL RUMBLE EVER!
This was with out a doubt the best royal rumble event ever and i dont just think the rumble , there were other matches that were good as well.The new Hart Foundation and the oreint express started the night off with a pretty solid contest than The Mountie put his intercontinental title up on the line vs. Roddy Piper this was a great match were we saw piper take home the gold. Then the LOD put their tag titles on the line vs. The natural Disasters this was a good title match that kept everyone watching. Then the Rumble Came and this was the best one ever and the funniest. Ric Flairs Iron man showing was awsome and it was also funny gettin to hear bobby heenan and his biased commentary. It was cool seeing hogan actually not win this and he actually helped Flair in the end.

Royal Rumble 1992 Review
Back when the WWF still understood the significance of the Royal Rumble event. The once classic hour-long battle royal really hasn't been much since the emergence of the "Attitude" era but in 1992, it wasn't just about which big-name stars could clear the ring of all the mid-carders. To those who aren't familiar with the pre-Austin WWF, this is a must-see.

Ric Flair gave an "Ironman" performance here. The commentary was on point here as well as Bobby Heenan's blatantly-biased broadcasting made for some amusing moments as he and Gorilla Monsoon trade shots back and forth. This was long before there was so much emphasis on commentators spending the whole show talking about one or two big main event wrestlers until they arrive in the Rumble. Clearly, Hulk Hogan is the big favorite here but the broadcasters take the time to acknowledge other feuds and storylines such as the one between the Macho Man and Jake Roberts and so on. This was one of the last great classic Rumbles before the WWF started going the predictable route. This was also the first and only Royal Rumble where the winner would get the WWF Title, a strange stipulation though it made it that much more intruiging, and the last one before they began rewarding the winner with a shot at the WWF Title at Wrestlemania.

The undercard for the '92 "Rumble" was not one of the better ones though Roddy Piper's only title win is a plus. He comes in as a substitute for Bret Hart, who is out due to illness, to challenge The Mountie for the Intercontinetal Title. There are also two tag team matches, one of which features the short-lived "New Foundation", a tag team featuring Owen Hart and Jim Neidhart.

If you can find Royal Rumble 1992 at any video store, I recommend that you pick it up.

Flair For The Gold At Royal Rumble 92
Possibly the greatest Royal Rumble match produced to date, the 1992 edition is at least the most star studded. The list of former and future World Champions in this event is enormous. Randy "Macho Man" Savage in his last significant run in the WWF, Hulk Hogan, also in his last significant run in the company before his 2002 return, Sid Justice, "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, "The Texas Tornado" Kerry Von Erich in his last major wrestling PPV appearance before his death, The Undertaker, all these performers were significant World Champions in the 80's and or 90's, some of them (Hogan, Savage) in both decades. Of course, the star of the show is Ric Flair, who lasts over 62 minutes (wrestlers draw numbers and enter the ring in 2 minute intervals, the match itself is fought like an over the top rope battle royal) to win the event and become the WWF World Champion, making him the only wrestler ever to be recognized as World Champ by the NWA, WCW, and WWF. Other notable main event stars include "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Greg "The Hammer" Valentine, Tito Santana, "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase, and The British Bulldog. Flair takes an incredible amount of punishment and is exhausted at the end. A true classic match up. The rest of the card is ordinary at best.
