WWE Royal Rumble 2023 is approaching with one of the biggest pro-wrestling events of the year ready to draw in a massive crowd \u2013 both in-person and around the world.<\/p>\n

The Rumble is an iconic WWE institution that attracts casual viewers in by the droves, and 2023 looks set to be no exception.<\/p>\n

The 36th edition of the event will see 30 men and 30 women enter the ring for a Rumble match each, with contenders steadily introduced to the spotlight throughout the course of the match.<\/p>\n

One by one, contenders are picked off and booted out of the running before only a select group reach the final stages. Last year\u2019s men\u2019s Rumble was won by Brock Lesnar, who entered at No.30 and wiped out five rivals in less than three minutes.<\/p>\n

The 2022 women\u2019s champion, Ronda Rousey, took little over 10 minutes to secure victory after entering at No.28.<\/p>\n
