The WWE Royal Rumble 2023 lived up to its billing as Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley won the Men’s and Women’s Royal Rumble 2023 respectively. Roman Reigns successfully defended his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, beating Kevin Owens, while Bianca Belair also defeated Alexa Bliss to retain her WWE RAW Women’s Championship.

The stage is set for the first mega WWE pay-per-view event for the year which will set up several big matches for WrestleMania 2023. WWE champion Roman Reigns will lock horns with Kevin Owens to defend his title. Here we will look at the top 4 feuds that can be seen in Wrestlemania 39 in April.

4. GUNTHER Sets Incredible New WWE Royal Rumble Record

Going coast to coast in the Rumble match is nothing new but Gnther’s attempt to book a place at WrestleMania saw him set an amazing new record. Gunther’s one hour eleven minutes and twenty-five seconds in the match is now the longest time for a WWE Superstar in a 30-man Rumble match.

The Austrian star beat the previous record of 62 minutes and 15 seconds set by 2006 Royal Rumble winner Rey Mysterio. The Intercontinental champion thus set up a good number of WrestleMania-level feuds with multiple top stars by the end of the match. 

3. Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley look set to complete their trilogy at WrestleMania 39

A huge shocker ensued during the match when Bobby Lashley eliminated Brock Lesnar, leaving The Beast infuriated. The Beast Incarnate was eliminated from the bout after just three minutes after Bobby Lashley eliminated him.

Last year’s Royal Rumble winner did eliminate three superstars from the match, as Santos Escobar, Chad Gable, and Angelo Dawkins were all taken out by Brock Lesnar. He also attacked officials at ringside, which could lead to some punishment from WWE.

2. Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio looks set to happen at WrestleMania 39

WWE Superstar Rey Mysterio wasn’t seen during this year’s WWE Royal Rumble 30-man match despite being announced as entry number 17. From the looks of it, the wrestling veteran’s inability to compete was connected to his past.

At number 18, Dominik Mysterio was seen wearing his father’s mask before ripping it apart on his way to the ring. With this in mind, it’s possible that The Judgment Day, or simply Dominik, beat up Rey Mysterio backstage ahead of the match, which caused his Royal Rumble absence.

Cody Rhodes outlasted 29 other men to win the 2023 Royal Rumble match. The American Nightmare suffered an injury prior to Hell in a Cell in June that kept him out of action for the remainder of the year. He was the 30th entrant in the Rumble match, which included major stars such as Lesnar, Lashley, and Drew McIntyre.
