3. Edge – 2 (2010)
“The Rated-R Superstar” Edge isn’t a stranger to making dramatic returns in Royal Rumble matches. Both of his returns in Rumble matches in 2010 and 2020 were iconic. However, Edge was the penultimate entrant in the 2010 Royal Rumble match.
Edge wasted no time in eliminating his former tag team partner, Chris Jericho, from the Rumble. The 2005 winner Batista and the 2008 winner John Cena, with whom Edge has had a history, were the final three participants.
As the Ultimate Opportunist was making his way back from injury, he only lasted a little over seven minutes to win his first Rumble. The Rated-R Superstar got the better of Cena by throwing him over the top rope, punching his ticket to a world championship match at WrestleMania 26.
