Betting odds for both the Royal Rumble 2023 matches from last night’s WWE premium live event, turned out to be true. To nobody’s surprise, Rhea Ripley ended up becoming the winner of the Women’s counterpart after Cody Rhodes clinched the victory in the Men’s division matchup.
Pulling off her best performance in the Rumble history, Ripley’s win was quite impressive since she entered the match at the number-one spot. Thus Ripley set two records in the match as she became the first and only woman to win The Rumble match from the 1st entry position and she has now also spent the longest time in a women’s Royal Rumble match at Royal Rumble 2023 for 61 minutes.
WWE Royal Rumble 2023: Roman Reigns – Sami Zayn Saga Takes Dramatic Turn
Ripley had most no. of eliminations at The Rumble
The WWE Raw Superstar won the match by eliminating Liv Morgan, who was the second entrant in the match. As a result, Morgan also spent the same amount of time as Ripley at Women’s Royal Rumble 2023.
However, it was The Judgment Day member who eliminated the most number of superstars with the likes of WWE Hall of Famer Michelle McCool, Asuka, B-Fab, the returning Chelsea Green, and more.
Prior to Royal Rumble 2023, Ripley was the runner-up in the 2021 women’s Royal Rumble match, which was won by current Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair. Since Belair is the current women’s champion from Raw, we assume Belair vs. Ripley is set for Wrestlemania 39.
