The WWE Royal Rumble 2016 has concluded and among 30 entrants in the ring, 1 man was seen standing last, The Legend Killer Randy Orton. Orton fought his way against several big names in 1 ring such as Goldberg, the Undertaker and Brock Lesnar.

As the Forbes mentioned in their report, the event started with the WWE Championship match between Jon Cena and AJ Styles. The match is considered to be an epic brawl between the two, but in the end, John Cena still holds the championship belt for the 15th time. Cena will now be joining Ric Flair for the most titles won in the entertainment wrestling history, ESPN confirmed.

The championship was followed by the battle royal as Big Cass and Chris Jericho are the two first entrants in the ring for the Royal Rumble event. After a couple of minutes, there goes Kalisto, making his way for his first Royal Rumble appearance along with Mojo Rawley. As the world's strongest man Mark Henry enters the ring, the first elimination has started as Jack Gallagher is the first man to leave the ring.

After Braun Strowman eliminated Big Cass, he fought Mark Henry in a one-on-one slugfest. Eventually, Mark Henry was thrown out of the ring by Strowman right after the brawl. Sami Zayn enters the ring followed by the Big Shaw, which was eliminated faster than expected by Strowman.

Tye Dillinger and James Ellsworth joined the brawl after a few minutes. Both tried to draw Strowman out, only to find Ellsworth dropping his feet on the mat. Strowman's streak ended as Barron Corbin entered the ring, teaming up with Zayn to push Strowman off the ring.

More wrestling superstars enter the ring and fought hard to win the event. Running at number 23, Randy Orton comes in and after a couple of minutes, Brock Lesnar jumped in and flushed out several competitors out of the ring.

Brock Lesnar was eliminated by Goldberg as everybody expected. After Goldberg eliminates Luke Harper and Rusev, he has found his match against the Undertaker and was eliminated as well. After a while, Roman Reigns Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton are the only remaining contestant. Orton secured his spot as he throws Wyatt out of the ring he gave the epic RKO to Roman Reigns and earn the WWE Royal Rumble 2016 title.
