This was X-Pac’s first match since April 2019. The WWE legend was rumored to return to WWE at the 2022 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event.

The 2022 Women’s Royal Rumble Match witnessed the return of several WWE legends. And there were some surprises too. But the Men’s Royal Rumble Match had little surprise. And this is one thing that the fans did not like.
