So we're gonna check out 10 greatest Iron Man performances and Royal Rumble history We are right around the corner from the Royal Rumble as of me filming this Royal Rumble is this Saturday, and I'm looking forward to it, man I cannot wait to see what's gonna happen. What type of surprises we're gonna get at the Royal Rumble How the match is gonna play out for the men and women Royal Rumble matches looking forward to it But it's always cool in a match where you have sometimes well in the Royal Rumble match It's that one person that becomes the Iron Man or the Iron Woman where they last Longer than people expected or they try to build a story off of someone lasting a very long time in the Royal Rumble match One of my favorite ones is the the Ray Mysterio one right after Eddie Guerrero Past and him last I believe it was like 60 minutes and to be and to win it It was such a good It was a good like a good warm feeling to see that like people want to see Ray You know be the one to overcome it in the memory of Eddie Guerrero, and it was one of my favorite Royal Rumbles in one of my favorite Royal Rumble wins Winners, so we're gonna check this out. I'm pretty sure they're gonna talk about appreciate all love and support What makes a good Iron Man performance well ideally they should be conventionally handsome ideally with a slightly dark past To reflect the characters own demons look good in both a tailored suit and CGI suit They should be able to do a lot of good close-up face acting little shots from inside the helmet Yeah, I'm bored of this bit too Iron Man is a yearly tradition someone who sticks around from the start of the rumble and lasts roughly until the very end Someone around whom you can build a bunch of spots someone who provides the match with a spy in a sense of structure or identity And Iron Man would always win the match, but it's definitely a role only given to a select trusted few Someone the company believes can carry the biggest match of the year on their back I'm Adam Haling from parts for known and here are 10 greatest Iron Man performances in Royal Rumble history While you hear if you'd like to keep up with our very stupid wrestling content like Survival series some more of these lists my booking videos make sure you subscribe to parts for known It really matters it really does so new year knew you new sub number 10 Shawn Michaels 1995 I mean this immediately feels like it's breaking the rules this video after all in almost any other rumble And Iron Man is defined by lasting about an hour in the ring That's what Iron Man means and a wrestling sense and everyone else on this list clocks in around that 50 minute to an hour Mark with a capital mark because he is wrestling reference John Michaels run the 1995 Royal Rumble was 38 minutes long This is because WWE perhaps they were concerned about someone going from number one all the way to the end for the very first time Changed the rumble format so that someone entered the match every 60 seconds. Oh, damn Every fucking minute Jesus Christ still even though it's a horribly rushed rumble and the rumble contained the Harris brothers who were Literal Nazis it's still an iconic performance from HBK here once anonymous with heroic endurance Overcoming the odds and her Culean task, which is what Iron Man performances are supposed to be even in a wet fart rumble match number nine Sasha Banks 2018 course it had to be Sasha the woman now known as Mercedes-Benz and currently AW fans did everything first for women in WWE in the 2010s first NXT main event first Iron Woman match first Hell in a Cell first pay-per-view main event So naturally when it came time for the first ever women's rumble Sasha came out first and was the first Iron Woman in Rumble history of course she was made a lot of the rumble seem more cohesive to the first women's rumble was a bit Scattershot not enough main roster women to fill out a lot of nostalgia returns But Sasha's hour-long run throughout kept things grounded mixing it up with pretty much everyone he stepped through the curtain Helps Sasha so good. She's a dream match machine as well. Sasha versus Lita check Versus Trish check favorite fight with your new favorite Just kept the hype machine rolling throughout the women's rumble 2018 and speaks to why an Iron Man performance is so important They keep things from falling apart number eight Chris Benoit 2004 the redacted rumble is fairly underage is a few lovely little bits in it You'll never see in a rumble recap package the Randy Orton McFauley stuff The reason why you won't see it because there's a chance you'll catch the number one entrant in the background Iron Man and rumble match winner Chris Benoit. Honestly, the performance completely makes the rumble as well Benoit has the most eliminations throughout his cardio is insane to his always around His performances are beating out the whole thing I don't think we understand like a lot of times in the Royal Rumble you see people just laying down Just kind of chilling but the fact that you know to be in that match for that long Trying to keep the selling going try having these different interactions with all the new competitors That's coming into the match. You know people that's been in the match Your cardio kind of has to be up and a lot of times you definitely see people just laying down Trying to catch a break. It's it does happen. So and if you remove the rumble would have been nowhere near as good As it was just considering everything It's a hard thing to go back and rewatch knowing that the hell that Chris Benoit would regularly put his body in Through with such a contributing factor to what ended up happening objectively though It is a standard bearer Iron Man performance number seven Chris Jericho 2013 2016 and 2017 It's crazy to think that he's still out of all the times he was in WWE He never won a Royal Rumble you would think Chris Jericho would be one of the few people to actually have won a Royal Rumble Three years three separate goddamn years Chris Jericho's turned in an Iron Man performance at the Rumble Bloody Ellie did it in back-to-back years in 2016 2017 in 2013 Chris Jericho came in number two and lasted for 47 minutes alongside co-iron man Dolph Ziggler in 2016. He entered number six and lasted 50 minutes In 2017 he entered number two and lasted over one hour bloody hell Chris. You're not here for a good time You're here for a long time. He may never have won a rumble in his WWE career, which is bonkers To be a natural WWE title match at WrestleMania and 20 bloody 12 But he does at least have one record to his name longest total time in the ring at almost five hours 11 Royal Rumble matches. That's silly Chris Jericho. Why are you so silly? Did fozzy drive you insane? I'm guessing they did by the tattoos. You've chosen to get number six edge and Bianca Belair The 2021 Rumbles were weird like neither of them were bad. Yeah, I'm an objective standpoint as Rumbles They're both structured fine with stacked with talent and lots of fun moments Love you for ever Christian, but also took place in the Thunderdome Which is to the enjoyment of a wrestling match as a mousetrap is to the enjoyment of a christening it's weird Certainly interesting, but ultimately puts a dampener on things also bit of a weird thing about 2021 Both rumbles were won by the person putting in the Iron Man performance Double booking there Bianca Belair won it from number three clocking in 57 minutes Edge won it from number one clocking in at 58 minutes a star making turn for Bianca and a you still got it Turn for edge although it is worth pointing out that Bianca's hair looks a lot better than edges by the end of the rumble Impressive performances in a pair of impressive rumbles that would be much more beloved in fan memory if it was of that stupid bloody plague Man, I wish that would have happened in front of a crowd. Oh, that would have been awesome Would have been a great great moment to see in front of a crowd number five Ray Mysterio 2006 it is very funny that everyone constantly talks about Ray Mysterio's admittedly very good indeed performance in the 2006 Royal rumble lasting one hour and two minutes and everyone ignores it in the same rumble triple H lasts one hour Even eliminating six dudes same as Ray Ray Mysterio got the record and the acclaim and that is objectively hilarious considering triple H and the whole ruthless aggression You know reign of terror regardless of that fun fact This is a brilliant showcase for Ray Mysterio like Shawn Michaels and Chris Benoit perform exactly the kind of performance needed To cement a wrestler's promotion from the upper midcard to the main event scene Ray Mysterio is the heart and soul of this year's rumble with extra emotional weight Oh, he's been dedicating the match to the recently passed Eddie Guerrero Yeah, I'm in the ring was record-setting and for over a decade stood as the longest individual time in a royal rumble That is until number four Daniel Bryan greatest royal rumble look if tempest gonna count it on I'm gonna be honest with you I'd never watched the greatest royal rumble. I'd never like actually just sat doing watching. I didn't watch that shit I just I didn't care survival series and hey, you should watch that video by the way It's bloody brilliant that I have to count it here The greatest royal rumble aka when the Saudi royal family bought themselves a rumble and tricked it out with 20 extra wrestlers That's exactly what makes a royal rumble great. How many more midcarters and Heroki Sumi's you can cram into the Honestly, the rumble is fairly crap But there is no denying that certain furry friend goes above and beyond to try and make the whole thing work with Daniel Bryan Entering at number one and being in the rumble for one hour and 16 minutes King hell and he left half his rib cage in the ring quite literally bloody hell Daniel Like y2j Bryan is criminally never won a rumble But at least has a record to his name because I don't think anyone's breaking this one Anytime soon at some point quantity has a certain quality of its very own and it may be attained But what a superhero performers for the best to ever do in fact are in 16 minutes That's too long Steve Austin 1997 one of the best things about the royal rumble is it gives people a chance to make a name for themselves A statement a chance for wwe to say to its fans. Hey, we're pretty sure this is the guy Thoughts sometimes when that guy is Roman Reigns the response is a polite Off and die Cold Steve Austin the fans responded. Yes, that'll do nicely Austin star been rising for a while in 96 with a stone cold persona An excellent match at Survivor Series against Breha But the 97 rumble is what truly made him any bloody work for it too He arrived at number five lasted 45 minutes eliminated 10 people tying Hogan's record at the time But most importantly, there were multiple points throughout the match where Austin eliminated the entire field and was left alone In the ring. Oh, yeah, and perfect spotlight on him with wwe screaming in all caps. This is the guy whole Austin sitting on the turnbuckle looking at his watch gimmick was brilliant and brought back five years later Almost to the day with Austin's performance in a 2002 rumble number two rick flair 1992 god the 92 rumbles good That's really good though in a way that you imagine it might not be considering, you know, it's old and that but now watch it again It's still hums one of the big reasons why is because of the stakes in the match the wwe championship Is on the line for the first time ever and as such the field of competitors is potentially The most tactics have ever been flair hogan justice undertaker DBRC piper robert any of these guys Walked out with the title, but of course it had to be flair. How else were we gonna get hogan versus flair wrestle mania eight Oh, f***ing wait a minute. It's an absolute Rumble performance from so many angles first time an iron man had won it Lasting over an hour as well The whole not fair to flair narrative being constantly pushed by bobby heen and having an all-time great showing on commentary The post-match promo it feels like the whole match was built around flair because it was which combined with the unique stakes Technically probably makes it the best iron man performance in rumble history. It's just not my favorite That would be number one Cain 2001. Oh f*** yeah I mean, it's my favorite royal rumble the first time I probably stayed up late to record it Then run home from school the next day to watch it without knowing who'd win magical little rumble for me And this match is one of the reasons that I loved Cain so much What a show Isn't expecting this arrives in an all-time great comedy spot that in no way diminishes Cain's aura Got the hardcore championship segment Cain and clears the whole ring honky tonk man comedy spot amazing Cain versus the rock undertaker arrives in the brothers destruction clear the ring again Poor scottie The entire time he is in the rumble all 53 minutes Damn Up and up as this unstoppable final bar setting an elimination record that would stand for over a decade WWE like to hype up their supernatural monsters with our smoke and mirrors, but in the 2001 royal rumble They truly made one right there right in front of our eyes and it was beautiful Yeah, I I remembered like for the longest time until Roman Reigns I believe he broke the record. They were always hyped up Cain has the most eliminations in the royal rumble Cain has the most eliminations in the royal rumble They were always hyped that up because I was just a cool stat to know like this This monster was out here just shucking people over the top rope and then the big dog at the time Became the person I believe to eliminate the most people in the royal rumble. You know, you know how that goes You know how that goes, but now this was a pretty cool list Me personally Reims still would be at the top of my list on this type of video only because just the sentimental value and What it meant at the time and for WWE to actually pull the trigger and to go with someone Of a smaller stature, you know to really, you know Go behind this person and right like no one thinks All right when you really sit there and think about it Even though Rey is very talented in the eyes of Vince McMahon and others Oh, he can't be a world champion. You know, he doesn't even he's not, you know, he doesn't fit the world champion build But to see that granted, we know why it happened. Obviously Eddie's passing was really a catalyst for that and how close they were So, you know, it was kind of them kind of just throwing Rey Mysterio bone It was still cool to see, you know, it was still a beautiful moment So comment down below. Let me know. What's your favorite Iron Man performance in a rural rumble ever? Let me know down below, but I appreciate all the love and support you guys have shown on the video Road to 150k and I am still you know, just be the youtube wrestling champion of the world.
