WWE Greatest Royal Rumble: Results, Updates, Highlights from Saudi Arabia
WWE fans were unsure whether Friday’s long-awaited Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia would be WrestleMania 34.5 or the world’s biggest house show. It was the latter.
The loaded card included seven title matches but no one lost their belts. (The only title change was Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy winning the vacant Raw Tag Team Championships.) Most notably, Roman Reigns lost the Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar on a technicality.
The 50-man Royal Rumble match was the highlight of the show and featured a handful of fun surprise entrants, such as Hornswoggle.
Below you will find a full list of results, followed by highlights as they appeared in our live blog.
