-== Rumble Records ==
-Just a quick, small question. Will the records be included for the [[WWE Greatest Royal Rumble|Greatest Royal Rumble match]] or are those only for the actual annual Rumble matches?
---[[User:UndertheDomefan|UndertheDomefan]] ([[User talk:UndertheDomefan|talk]]) 18:09, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
-:The records here are based on how the WWE treats them, so if the WWE treats them different than I believe we should as well. - '''''[[User:Galatz|<span style="color: #000080">Galatz</span>]][[User_talk:Galatz|<span style="color: #FF0000"><sup>Talk</sup></span>]]''''' 01:26, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
-::Like Galatz said, it depends on when the event occurs, we don't decide it. If WWE expands the existing statistics based on the results of the GRR, then it will be added. If they don't mention it, it is presumed different. WWE is very vocal about the statistics of the normal Royal Rumble, video packages and all, so if it is included, we will know. If I had to venture a guess, it will probably be kept different. The winner receives just a trophy similar to the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. There have been other "Royal Rumble" matches in the past like the article mentions and they are not included in the statistics. — [[User:Moe Epsilon|<span style="color:royalblue; font-family: Segoe Script">Moe</span>]] [[User talk:Moe Epsilon|<span style="color:royalblue; font-family: Segoe Script">Epsilon</span>]] 02:00, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
-:::I kind of understood WWE was in control of this, especially when they said [[Sheamus]] lasted 20 seconds in 2018. Thanks guys!! - [[User:UndertheDomefan|UndertheDomefan]] ([[User talk:UndertheDomefan|talk]]) 4:16, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
-::::So what now? We list it under "other Royal Rumble matches" next to house show rumbles and Raw rumbles that don't get counted. Shouldn't it get a separate category or be put next to the real rumbles?[[User:WrestlingLegendAS|WrestlingLegendAS]] ([[User talk:WrestlingLegendAS|talk]]) 22:43, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
-:WWE seem to be counting [http://www.wwe.com/shows/greatest-royal-rumble/article/daniel-bryan-royal-rumble-match-time-record Bryan's ironman record] and [http://www.wwe.com/shows/greatest-royal-rumble/article/braun-strowman-royal-rumble-match-elimination-record Strowman's elimination record] as new Rumble records, so I'm assuming it counts as an official one. '''[[User:Sceptre|Sceptre]]''' ([[User talk:Sceptre|talk]]) 01:07, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
-::Yeah, even [[Michael Cole (wrestling)|Michael Cole]] stated that [[Goldust]] officially entered his 13th Royal Rumble match. Of course, also a new record. - [[User:UndertheDomefan|UndertheDomefan]] ([[User talk:UndertheDomefan|talk]]) 4:03, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
-Braun Strowman is missing one rumble appearance and some eliminations he entered in 2016 and eliminated multiple men they need to be added! [[User:Tinuskiller|Tinuskiller]] ([[User talk:Tinuskiller|talk]]) 12:52, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
-== Semi-protected edit request on 28 April 2018 ==
-{{edit semi-protected|Royal Rumble|answered=yes}}
-Update statistics on Royal Rumble match as of the recent PPV, Greatest Royal Rumble. WWE has uploaded the official statistics on their website, so the source to be updated is credible. [[User:Kntx12|Kntx12]] ([[User talk:Kntx12|talk]]) 06:06, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

-::Where is that source? [[User:Str1977|Str1977]] [[User talk:Str1977|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 23:33, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
-== Greatest Royal Rumble ==
-Shouldn’t the greatest Royal Rumble be listed  as another event since it wasn’t billed as the 32nd annual Royal Rumble as they do with the regular rumbles. Also shouldn’t the stats for the match be on their own “Royal Rumble match” page as opposed to the event, similar to Money in the Bank and Elimination Chamber matches. Separate pages for the match and PPVs. [[User:Ron234|Ron234]] ([[User talk:Ron234|talk]]) 17:29, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
-:This is absolutely part of the Royal Rumble chronology. It is a Royal Rumble event with the name Royal Rumble in the Title. They wouldn’t call this the 32nd annual because annual means yearly. There were 2 Rumble events this year, thus they wouldn’t call one, held only a few months later, the next annual event. The 32nd edition, yes. 32nd annual, no. [[User:OldSkool01|OldSkool01]] ([[User talk:OldSkool01|talk]]) 07:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
-It absolutely is not. It’s got a different page on wwe.com from the regular rumbles and on its own page it says first ever “greatest Royal Rumble”. Please check with the official site before making edits. [[User:Ron234|Ron234]] ([[User talk:Ron234|talk]]) 09:39, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
-Question, how do we know it's apart of the Royal Rumble PPV? How WWE marketed the event, it seems to be it's own Pay-per-view/WWE Network event separate from the Royal Rumble PPV. Just because it has the name "Royal Rumble" in the PPV doesn't exactly mean it's apart of the Royal Rumble chronology. [[User:TheDeviantPro|TheDeviantPro]] ([[User talk:TheDeviantPro|talk]]) 10:02, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
-:The Greatest Royal Rumble should NOT be in this page and the chronology should not reflect it as being after 2018. The WWE had treated them completely differently. Just because they both feature the Royal Rumble match, does not link them. The WWE has kept them completely separate, and there is no [[WP:RS]] used to say they are the same chronology. - '''''[[User:Galatz|<span style="color: #000080">Galatz</span>]][[User_talk:Galatz|<span style="color: #FF0000"><sup>Talk</sup></span>]]''''' 11:11, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
-== Article split ==
-I am suggesting we split this article between [[Royal Rumble match]] and [[Royal Rumble]]. Similar to [[WWE Money in the Bank]] and [[Money in the Bank ladder match]]. This article should be about the PPV series itself, and split off the stats about the matches. Any thoughts? - '''''[[User:Galatz|<span style="color: #000080">Galatz</span>]][[User_talk:Galatz|<span style="color: #FF0000"><sup>Talk</sup></span>]]''''' 13:25, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
