Today in 1988: The first ever Royal Rumble event was held at the Copps Coliseum in Hamilton Ontario on the USA Network and was won by Jim Duggan. I'm from the UK but I know this info off by heart due to an extra in the Royal Rumble 2003 dvd!
Today in 1993: Yokozuna won the Rumble last eliminating Macho Man.
Today in 1999: Vince McMahon won the Rumble from #2, last eliminating Steve Austin #1. The Rock won his second WWF title beating Mankind in an I Quit match...kinda, Foley never actually said he quit, an audio of him saying it from his promo on Heat was played over the PA system.

I can't even fathom the fact it has been a decade since the 2004 Royal Rumble. When I was in high school, the Royal Rumble usually took place during final exam week. It is hard to believe ten years has passed since Chris Benoit's Royal Rumble victory.

I was 11 years old at the time & it legit feels like only yesterday. I guess I'm really just not used to remembering 10 years back like it was the other day due still being young.
