2023 features Triple H’s first Royal Rumble at the helm of WWE creative–does he deliver? Greg DeMarco’s analysis is here for you!

If you ask the average wrestling fan, they’ll likely tell you the WWE Royal Rumble is their favorite pay-per-view event of the year. There’s something magical about the format that captures the imagination of fans all over the world.

Was the 2023 edition any different? Read on for Greg DeMarco’s 2023 WWE Royal Rumble Results, Reaction & Analysis!

Also check out:

Show Opening

  • Before the build to the Royal Rumble, I had no clue who Hardy was. I knew Matt Hardy, I knew Jeff Hardy, and I knew a local indy wrestler that we all call “Hardy” backstage. But the recording artist? New to me.

Men’s WWE Royal Rumble Match

  • Pat McAfee, after feigning ignorance during his own show, is now here to commentate on the Royal Rumble Match! I totally expected him to be IN the match, and not at the commentary table. But I’ll take it.
  • It appears he’s there for the whole show…we’ll see.
  • I will try to keep these going, but I am also tracking entrance times as a little experiment of my own.
  • Cole is happy to tell us that 3 men have won the Rumble from #1, but I have a feeling he’ll never tell us who!
  • (Nor should he.)
  • Welp, with him coming in at #2, I don’t see Sheamus making my WrestleMania dream a realization and him facing Roman. There’s always Money In The Bank.
  • These two (GUNTHER and Sheamus) need way more than 2 minutes.
  • Is this the first time the Men’s Royal Rumble has ever opened the show?
  • Way to go Applebee’s!
  • That corner spot with Miz is hilarious.
  • Anyone else think that was gonna be Big E?
  • It truly is great to have Pat McAfee back on the call.
  • There’s your trivia question answer: The Miz is the first man eliminated from the 2023 Men’s WWE Royal Rumble Match
  • Star studded Rumble through the first 6 entrants.
  • NEW DAY COLLIDES!
  • Lol, nope.
  • Oh yay, Karrion Kross is here.
  • Cole tells us no one has ever won from #7. Let’s keep it that way.
  • 9 entrants in, and the time span between entrants is all over the place
  • Interesting that The Banger Bros has more to deal with copyrights than anything.
  • So long to Karrion Kross!
  • Mil Mascaras reference!
  • Santos almost suffered Mil’s fate, too.
  • Good eye on the feet!
  • And there goes Woods!
  • Kofi out???
  • Maybe not.
  • STAY DOWN, KOFI. BROCK IS HERE!
  • Yes, Pat, The Alpha Male Of Our Species.
  • San Antonio has become Suplex City!
  • DOWN GOES BROCK!
  • Guess we’re getting Brock vs. Bob at WrestleMania after all!
  • Brock goes mad, and here’s Seth Freakin Rollins!
  • Rollins would be a hell of a winner.
  • I really thought Corbin was gonna get The Stomp, but this also works.
  • I don’t think we’re getting a ton of surprises as the early graphic had over 20 faces on it. But I think we still get one or two, here. The roster is stacked, we don’t need a lot of surprises on the men’s side.
  • #17 is Rey’s music, but no Rey! Obviously we’re getting an angle our of this.
  • Meanwhile, Lashley is gone!
  • You knew if anyone was getting Banger Bros in there, it was McAfee
  • Beautiful corner powerbomb to Gargano by Rollins!
  • Sheamus and GUNTHER still alive and well after 30 minutes.
  • I am guessing Dominik had something to do with Rey not appearing?
  • Hell of a night for Elias.
  • CAN YOU DIG THAT, SUCKAAAAAAAA!
  • SPINAROONIE!
  • That’s all we needed, Booker.
  • All three of The Judgment Day’s men are now in the match–can they dominate?
  • “From Dom? What the hell has been going on since I left?”
  • What if Montez won?
  • That’s a serious question.
  • Interesting apparatus in the floor right there. Must be for the Pitch Black Match.
  • Welp, Montez is out.
  • Quite the pop for Edge. Not surprised at all. He likes to make a triumphant return in Texas.
  • Edge eliminates all of The Judgment Day from this match.
  • Well, not Dominik. And instead, Edge is gone.
  • BETH PHOENIX! Obviously setting up something for later tonight.
  • “Humans come in that size, huh?” – McAfee on Omos
  • “The Brothers Of Bang” – Patrick McAfee is a national treasure
  • Imagine if this was Braun’s return to the company right here.
  • Thank goodness Braun got rid of the red pants.
  • Braun vs. Omos at WrestleMania?
  • I am shocked Dominik is still in this. I think Rey is gonna come out and toss him at some point.
  • 52 minutes for Sheamus!
  • Not quite the reaction you’d expect for ol’ Logan Paul.
  • BUCKSHOT LARIAT MY LOGAN PAUL!
  • I totally forgot about Cody Rhodes and was thinking a big surprise for #30. Oops.
  • Take note Young Bucks… THAT is how you do a contrived spot.
  • Hell of a moment for Logan Paul and Ricochet.
  • Our final four is Cody Rhodes, GUNTHER, Seth Freakin’ Rollins, and Austin Theory.
  • Logan Paul dumps Seth Rollins??? Rollins vs Paul at WrestleMania?
  • So that was absolutely NOT the final four lol.
  • #1 Gunther vs. #30 Cody Rhodes for the WrestleMania Main Event.
  • Win or lose, Gunther has t have the greatest Royal Rumble performance by an Intercontinental Champion ever.
  • Cody with the Goldust Spot! SHATTERED DREAMS!
  • “The sack?” – Pat McAfee.
  • And Cody Rhodes wins–the Dream continues!
  • GUNTHER lasted 1:11:41 (I don’t care what Michael Cole said).

Winner of the 2023 Men’s WWE Royal Rumble Match: Cody Rhodes

Pitch Black Match – LA Knight vs. Bray Wyatt

  • I really hope we get some more storyline development for Bray Wyatt tonight. I know he has a ton of influence over what we are seeing, but it is moving SLOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWLY.
  • So the rules are that this is No Disqualification, Anything Goes, Pinfall or Submission Only. Doesn’t seem that special to me, let’s see if there are any effects in the arena.
  • I saw Huskus, I am assuming I missed others? Or they missed them going to crowd shots?
  • I see we have a Mountain Dew canvas logo as well.
  • And we get black lights. I wonder how this looks for the fans in the Alamodome.
  • “Happy I washed these pants!” – Pat McAfee
  • I almost forgot… CORPORATE SYNERGY!
  • Well, that was a quick one. Not sure if Bray Wyatt had much more left in the tank, either.
  • The visual was good, match was just fine.

Winner: Bray Wyatt

  • And now Bray’s….. A LUCHADOR?
  • “WHAT IS THAT THING?” – Pat McAfee
  • Uncle Howdy dove onto LA Knight (or towards his general direction, anyway) and we got some fire.
  • He missed.
  • #UncleHowdyMissed

Raw Women’s Championship Match – Alexa Bliss vs. Bianca Belair (c)

  • Well, you gotta imagine Uncle Howdy won’t get involved here. But you never know.
  • When I went to the 2019 Royal Rumble here in Phoenix, the Raw Women’s Championship Match went on right before the Women’s Royal Rumble. I assume we are getting that here as well.
  • To be fair, I ran to grab a drink and a snack during the first part of this match.
  • Apparently I went downstairs for most of the match.

Winner and STILL WWE Raw Women’s Champion: Bianca Belair

  • And now Alexa is being haunted, and she looks scared of it.
  • I’d be pissed at ol’ Uncle Howdy if he haunted me AFTER I lost. Can’t you at least give me superhuman powers for the match?!?!

Women’s Royal Rumble Match

  • We continue the trend of having major stars at #1 and #2.
  • Rhea Ripley being third all time for eliminations is kinda awesome.
  • Rhea looking at that sign awfully early, tbh.
  • Michael Cole acknowledging Emma’s WWE release tells me Vince is definitely in charge (yet).
  • We are definitely getting the women to the ring quicker than the men, at least so far.
  • “Future Endeavor Stomp from Shayna!” – Pat McAfee
  • Bayley has legit done it all except win a Rumble.
  • Bye bye B-Fab. She sucks anyway.
  • Roxanne Perez!
  • “Lotta damage from Damage CTRL?” – Pat McAfee
  • Dana Brooke looked like an idiot there.
  • NOT ROXANNE?!?!
  • Zoey Stark definitely looks like she belongs in a main roster match.
  • Not a great Rumble for Candice LeRae
  • EVIL ASUKA IS OVER IN SAN ANTONIO!
  • PIPER NIVEN?!?! Good for her!
  • Tamina here to make sure we have a Samoan in one of the Rumbles.
  • Here comes Chelsea Green!
  • And there goes Chelsea Green.
  • All of Damage CTRL and Becky Lynch are out. Makes sense, honestly. I hope we get Becky Lynch vs. Bayley at WrestleMania in Hell In A Cell.
  • CORPORATE SYNERGY!
  • “Me uh think Michin’s gonna do well.” – Pat McAfee
  • Great showings for #1 and #2 in both Rumbles tonight.
  • Aaaaaaaaaaaand Lacey Evans is here. She literally peaked in her first ever WWE main roster match (2019 Women’s Royal Rumble Match)
  • Michelle McCool enters from the crowd?!?!
  • How does someone not know they’re in the rumble?
  • Sonya Deville is such a bad ass. I’d love it if she got treated as one.
  • Can we give Shotzi her last name back?
  • So they screwed up Nia Jax’s music, but she got one of the biggest pops of the night.
  • Seriously, she got a bigger pop than Logan Paul.
  • Final three; Liv Morgan, Rhea Ripley, Asuka.
  • Would love to see Asuka take this, but it is likely Rhea’s to win.
  • And there it is! Creative finish, I liked it.

Winner of the 2023 Women’s Royal Rumble Match: Rhea Ripley

  • No Beth Phoenix involvement, and most of the spots occupied by the current roster. Triple H really made a statement with these Rumbles, and I am 100% behind it.

Undisputed WWE Universal Championship Match: Kevin Owens vs. Roman Reigns (c)

  • For a  guy who wrestles in a t-shirt and gym shorts, Kevin Owens now main events at WrestleMania, Survivor Series, and the Royal Rumble all in the past year.
  • Roman Reigns enters with just Paul Heyman and Sami Zayn. No Usos, no Solo Sikoa.
  • Paul Heyman and Sami Zayn are brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
  • “Don’t be a mark, Cole!” – Pat McAfee
  • Been a while since I’ve seen Roman hit the Drive By!
  • “Because I’ve been told for 25 years to watch my monitor…” – Michael Cole
  • I always thought the “OOOO WAHHHH!” was going to give Roman’s opponents too much of a warning that the Spear is coming.
  • The problem with having Sami Zayn out there is we’re all just sitting here waiting for something to happen.
  • Btw, no Sami Zayn or Solo Sikoa in the Men’s Royal Rumble Match was the right call.
  • I actually wonder if there’s too much focus on Sami Zayn. Roman Reigns the performer might be better off with less focus on Sami.
  • Those shots to the stairs were BRUTAL.
  • We get the win, but no real movement in the Sami/Bloodline storyline.

Winner AND STILL Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns

  • We’ll have to see what happens on Raw or Smackdown this week, but maybe the chair comes into the conversation, maybe the reactions.
  • Ah, wait a minute–NOW the true test comes.
  • We’ve had a beatdown, solo with the chair, and now handcuffs.
  • Sami is TORN. This is a damn movie. Such good shit.
  • Roman hands Sami the chair–and I almost expected Sami to just take it and waffle Owens himself.
  • “Otherwise, go and do Jackass shit!” – Roman Reigns
  • THAT WAS PERFECT.
  • Did you hear that pop? THAT’s how you tell a story.
  • Solo and Jimmy attacking Sami, and Jey is just watching.
  • Jey leaves, and this has officially passed Daniel Bryan Danielson’s WrestleMania 30 ascension as the greatest story in wrestling history.
  • FUCK YOU ROMAN chants from the crowd, and he’s right back to being the heel he is.
  • Commentary hasn’t said a word.

Winners and NEW Greatest Storyline In The History Of Professional Wrestling: Sami Zayn, Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Kevin Owens, Solo Sikoa, Jimmy Uso, and Paul Heyman!

Well done. Well done.

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: KUSHIDA VS Francesco Akira!

Time is running out, and maybe it’s too late, but the Time Splitter and the Crown of Fire are going to fight until the last possible second! But win, lose, or draw, who will be watching and waiting for the final results?

The bell rings and the two tie right up. They break, tie up again, and then break. They tie up again, Kushida headlocks, and he grinds Akira down. Akira powers up and out, but Kushida RUNS him over!

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Master Wato VS Yoshinobu Kanemaru!

The Way of the Grandmaster fell in the main event of last round, but he still has a chance to be in the finals! Will he stay alive just a little longer? Or will the Heel Master pour some whiskey on Wato’s dreams?

Well, to start, Kanemaru attacks during Wato’s entrance! The fans boo as Kanemaru kicks and CLUBS Wato! Kanemaru POSTS Wato, Wato falls over, and Kanemaru stomps him down! The ref reprimands but Kanemaru tells him to shut up. Kanemaru leaves Wato behind and wants the ring count. The ref has the bell ring first, and now a ring count can start. Wato rises at 3 of 20, is on the apron, but Kanemaru runs up. Wato RAMS Kanemaru, takes aim, but Kanemaru shoves the ref into Wato! Wato falls, as does the ref, and the fans boo as Kanemaru goes out after Wato! Kanemaru POSTS Wato again!

Kanemaru brings out chairs, puts on one Wato’s leg, then SLAMS the other chair on top of it! Not quite a Con-Chair-To but it gets the job done. Kanemaru SMASHES Wato’s knee on the floor, then goes back to the ring. The ref reprimands but Kanemaru lets Wato writhe. Wato clutches his knee while the ring count starts again. Wato crawls but he’s still down at 10 of 20. Wato reaches for the apron at 15, stands at 17, but manages to jump in at 19! Kanemaru YANKS the bad leg, stomps away on Wato, then stands him up. Kanemaru whips, but Wato can’t even run! The ref checks Wato but Kanemaru is right on those legs!

Kanemaru chuckles as he holds Wato open, but then he gives the ref one leg so Kanemaru can split the wishbone! Wato flounders, stands, and Kanemaru DROPKICKS the legs out! Kanemaru then grabs a leg to YANK it! Kanemaru stomps Wato more, taunts him, then drags him back up. Kanemaru has the leg for the SHIN BREAKER! And then he turns Wato over, HALF CRAB! Wato endures and the fans rally while Kanemaru sits deep! Kanemaru pulls on the leg, but Wato scrambles to the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer but Kanemaru won’t let go! The ref counts, Kanemaru finally lets go at 4, and he drags Wato right back up.

Kanemaru whips, but Wato still can’t run that well! Wato tumbles to the apron, then slips to the floor. Kanemaru goes right after Wato to SMASH the knee on the floor! The fans rally for Wato while he writhes but Kanemaru leaves him behind. The ref checks with Wato but Wato won’t let this stop him. The ring counts as Kanemaru waits on Wato. Wato is still down at 10 of 20, just like last time. Wato slowly rises and stands at 16. Wato rolls in at 17 and the fans cheer, but Kanemaru grabs the legs for a FIGURE FOUR! Wato endures, the fans rally, but Kanemaru puts on the pressure! Wato flails, reaches out, and he drags Kanemaru along! ROPEBREAK!!

The fans cheer and Kanemaru makes the ref help him undo the hold. Wato grits his teeth and clutches his leg but the fans still rally behind him. Kanemaru stomps Wato, stomps the leg, then kicks him around. Wato stands to CHOP! And CHOP! Kanemaru KICKS the leg! Kanemaru whips Wato but Wato again falls! The leg is in bad shape but Wato refuses to give up. Wato stands, Kanemaru runs up, but Wato ELBOWS him! And BULLDOGS! The fans fire up as Wato powers through the pain!

The fans are with him as he waistlocks and TSUTEN- NO, Kanemaru grabs the ref! Kanemaru mule kicks the leg! Then he KICKS the other leg! Then he trips Wato to step through, FIGURE FOUR!! Wato endures, the fans rally as hard as they can, but Kanemaru puts on the pressure! Wato reaches out but he’s so far away! Wato pushes against the main leg, he grabs at the ref, but that won’t save him!

Wait, what is SHO doing here?! The Murder Machine is in B Block, but the House of Torture boys will always help each other cheat! The ref keeps Sho back, but Yujiro Takahashi is also here! Tokyo Pimp slides the whiskey bottle to Kanemaru! Kanemaru CLUBS away on Wato’s leg with that bottle!! The fans boo as Wato can only suffer! Kanemaru puts even more pressure on the hold, and WATO TAPS!! Kanemaru wins!!

Winner: Yoshinobu Kanemaru, by submission (gains 2 points; Wato earns 0)

Kanemaru’s game plan to go after the legs was working well enough, he didn’t need the House’s help! But perhaps Kanemaru wanted to stoop to these lows in order to win! And now Sho & Yujiro help stomp away on Wato! But here comes Yoh! Direct Drive saves his tag partner and runs off The House! He even gets a chair! Yoh wants them to man up, but that’s not happening. But now, with Hiromu Takahashi having beat Wato and issuing the tag title challenge, and now Kanemaru winning tonight… Could we really be seeing such an odd couple as Timebomb & Heel Master going for the tag titles?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Kosei Fujita VS Clark Connors!

One down, two to go. Wato is out of the running after Kanemaru cut him off at the knees, so to speak. Will the Japanese Young Punk fight his way into the finals? Or will 100 Proof bring down even the mighty?

Robbie Eagles is here via commentary so he checks on his teammate and friend. Fujita is still in this so Connors lets the ring count start. The fans rally and Fujita is still down at 10 of 20. Fujita crawls at 12, rises at 14, but he flounders at 16! The fans rally harder, and Fujita springs in at 19.5! Connors hauls Fujita up to whip him hard into a corner! Fujita falls and Connors covers, TWO! Connors drags Fujita up, whips him hard into another corner, and he lets Fujita fall again.

Winner: Kosei Fujita, by submission (gains 2 points; Connors earns 0)

The Mighty Don’t Kneel, they don’t give up, and perhaps, they are still in this race! Will the Japanese Young Punk fight until the very end? Or will was this the last win he’ll get in BOSJ 32?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Hiromu Takahashi VS Robbie X!

It is apropos that the most decorated man, the FOUR-TIME BOSJ winner, is in the main event of the ninth and final round. If he wins, he moves on to potentially grabbing number five! But if he loses, it will be Kosei Fujita’s time to shine. Will Robbie take Hiromu to the X-treme? Or will the Ticking Timebomb still have time on the clock?

The bell rings and the fans rally for “HI-RO-MU! HI-RO-MU!” Robbie shrugs that off as he and Hiromu circle. They run up and DOUBLE LARIAT! They stay up, and Robbie ducks Hiromu’s elbow. Hiromu dodges in return and headlocks, only for Robbie to power up and out. Hiromu RUNS Robbie over, Robbie kips up, but Hiromu CHOPS him down!

Robbie then tells fans to move as he fetches Hiromu. Fans rally for Hiromu but Robbie BOWLS Hiromu into chairs! The fans are torn as Robbie hits the strike, but Robbie also flips off the Hiromu fans. Robbie stomps Hiromu, then grabs a fan’s Hiromu towel to CHOKE Hiromu with it! Robbie throws it back at the fan, and in a way that towel is more valuable because it touched Hiromu. Robbie then drags Hiromu up to bring him to another section!

The fans hurry away, Robbie whips, but Hiromu reverses to BOWL Robbie into chairs! The fans fire up as Hiromu gets even with Robbie! Hiromu storms over to bring Robbie up, and CHOP! The fans cheer and Hiromu CHPOS Robbie again! They go through the crowd, and Robbie CLAWS Hiromu’s eyes! Robbie CHOPS Hiromu, laughs at him and the fans, then brings Hiromu back to ringside. Robbie ROCKS Hiromu, and then he takes chairs from the crowd! Robbie refreshes the count before he makes Hiromu take a swat. Robbie CHOPS Hiromu, sets the other chair up nearby, and he tells the fans he’s gonna end Hiromu!

Winner: Robbie X, by pinfall (gains 2 points; Connors earns 0)

So what if he was the underdog? So what if he’s last place? So what if he replaced Bushi in the block? Robbie X just beat the most decorated Super Junior alive today! And that means the winner of A Block is KOSEI FUJITA! Hiromu is furious, but Fujita walks back out here to have the spotlight! Fujita and Hiromu cross paths, and Hiromu pats Fujita on the shoulder as he exits. Fujita goes to the ring, and Robbie invites him in given Robbie won the main event. Robbie tells Fujita to get this in his little brain: Robbie beat Fujita, he beat Hiromu, so… If Fujita wins this whole thing and beats El Desperado, do what is right!

Robbie wants the first championship match with Fujita! The fans like that, and Fujita nods in agreement. Robbie leaves, will Mr. X have his chance at gold? As for Fujita, he grabs the mic to say, “Sorry to those of you who may have wanted to hear more from Robbie X. But if I’m in the position of naming challengers, then I will give him the first title shot.” The fans applaud, and Fujita continues on. “I won this A Block.” The fans applaud that, too, and Fujita says he’ll take “all the hope, hate and then I’ll win. That’s all!” The Japanese Young Punk keeps it short and sweet, but will the Ichiban Sweet Boy become the Best of the Super Juniors?

 

Here are the FINAL A Block standings!

Kosei Fujita: 5-4, 10 points [FINALIST]
Hiromu Takahashi: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Master Wato: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Francesco Akira: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Clark Connors: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
KUSHIDA: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Ninja Mack: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Dragon Dia: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Yoshinobu Kanemaru: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Robbie X: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]


My Thoughts:

An awesome start to the ninth round, and it is always fun to have these final playoff scenarios sort out. Mack VS Dia was great, even for not affecting anything, and I really do hope these two guys become the next big thing. I figured Kanemaru would screw Wato over with help from Sho & Yujiro, and this definitely feeds into the tag title story that involves Hiromu. Fujita overcoming Connors and Robbie X getting the upset on Hiromu was all awesome stuff, and I like the gentlemen’s agreement that Robbie will be the lineal contender should Fujita win the title. B Block is going to be awesome, I’m sure, and there are all sorts of great choices for Fujita’s opponent.

My Score: 9.1/10
