Royal Rumble 1992

1. The New Foundation defeated The Orient Express by pinfall

***Match Of The Night***

Terrific opener between two teams that never really amounted to much in the WWF, which is a shame. This is a good opening match and it's too bad we don't see too many of those any more.

Rating: 3.75

2. Roddy Piper defeated The Mountie by submission to win the Intercontinental Championship

Not really much of a match, but a good moment nonetheless. Piper would then go on to probably the best match of his career at WrestleMania.

Rating: .5

3. The Beverly Brothers defeated The Bushwackers by pinfall

This was a comedy match, as you may have expected, but for some reason was about 15 minutes long. Had it been about 5, it would have been fine, but it dragged big time.

Rating: .5

4. The Natural Disasters defeated Legion Of Doom by countout

This match probably should have had a clean finish, but I guess both teams needed to look strong. Typical LOD match.

Rating: .75

5. Royal Rumble - Winner Ric Flair

Most seem to think that this is the best rumble ever and I really just don't see it. Ric Flair put on a heck of a show, but I feel that the supporting stories were weak. Kind of like a lot of Johnny Depp movies.

Rating: 3.5

Well, there are definitely some good highlights here. You have both Piper and Flair's best WWF moments, but you also have a few matches thare are pretty bad. However, the Rumble takes up the majority of the time and that was good, so that makes this an easy thumbs up. Plus the Foundation/Express match is good stuff as well. Good show.
