The Rockers facing each other the best of the early matches. Narcissist weird arrival lex Luger impressing only Bobby Heenan with all his mirrors. Monsoon & the brain always a great double act for the last time at the royal rumble. For me does not matter what titles are on the line the main event is the rumble. No spoilers but Ric Flair record time was not just impressive because of the time spent. It was that he was involved in everything . In later years once wrestlers know or thinks camera will be on the next participant entrance there all on the deck Buying time. Well here could have been the beginning of that. A wrestler chases the flair record buying time. Instead of being impressed by this performance just made you think how amazing flair was. There was some good stories and appearances in this one and a number of times moves funnily just didn't come off showing the big changes in the roster and how little of the superstars has worked together. Still a very fun event and when everyone not just on the deck letting two superstars work, I love the rumble not knowing who to look at or missing some things is surely the fun of the Royal Rumble.

For perhaps the first time in WWF history, the 1993 edition of the Royal Rumble managed to create individual matches in the event (in this case Michaels/Janetty and Hart/Ramon) that overshadowed the Rumble itself. Unfortunately, this was only because the Rumble was so weak in and of itself.

Basically, besides a few guys (Ted DiBiase, Randy Savage, Undertaker) that were still likable (although most of those were even past their respective primes), the entire "main event" consisted of nothing but "jobbers" (wrestle-speak for placeholders in between stars) and big fat guys (always go over better than shrimps). It wasn't anything like years past, where every other guy would elicit a huge reaction (one way or another) from the crowd.

Plus, although commentator Gorilla Monsoon is always excellent, Bobby "The Brain" Heenan again will make you want to watch the whole tape on "mute", which really takes away a lot of the fun (at least it would have in the Jesse "The Body" Ventura years).

Overall, this is a very "skippable" event in your quest through the RR series. It serves its purpose to advance the story lines into Wrestlemania and even puts together a few good stand-alone matches, but the main event is utterly boring.
