Edge became the first Hall of Famer to win the Royal Rumble match.
Edge became the first #1 entrant to win the Royal Rumble since 2004 and the third overall after Shawn Michaels and Chris Benoit. Edge is also the seventh two-time winner of the Royal Rumble match.
First Royal Rumble match appearance for Christian since 2005, and his first match entirely since 2014. This would also be his last match as a WWE superstar or employee as he would sign with AEW soon after. (Him hugging Edge during the Royal Rumble match was not only a "welcome back" hug, but a goodbye hug as well.)
The 34th event under the Royal Rumble chronology.
Bianca Belair became the first #3 entrant to win the women's Royal Rumble match, and the first of either match since Ric Flair in 1992. Bianca also broke the record for longest time spent in the women's match at 56:49.
