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. Ron234 (talk) 17:29, 29 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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.

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. Ron234 (talk) 09:39, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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. TheDeviantPro (talk) 10:02, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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. If you look here [1] there is no mention of GRR. Also on the WWE Network if you look for the RR shows here [2] its not listed - GalatzTalk 11:11, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly GRR and RR are separate events and whoever keeps putting them back in the same event needs to stop. Ron234 (talk) 11:44, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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? - GalatzTalk 13:25, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Winners

This page should definitely show the winners for the respective years Rumble matches on the dates, venues and winners section. Ron234 (talk) 15:38, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Idk why was missing, but I've fixed it. Nickag989talk 18:54, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That was on me, I figured it belonged in the match page, but if you guys think its best to duplicate it here too, no big deal. I guess MITB does list it both places too so it makes sense for consistency. - GalatzTalk 18:56, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
