10 Impressive WWE records that were broken in 2018

#7 Longest time in a Royal Rumble match - Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan lasted over an hour in the Greatest Royal Rumble match

The Royal Rumble match is one of the longest matches of the year and throughout its entire span as a pay-per-view, there have been many men who have been the Ironmen of the match and stayed as part of the competition for more than an hour.

The most famous one would be Rey Mysterio back in 2006 when he lasted from number two in the match to last eliminate Randy Orton and win the chance to main event WrestleMania. This year WWE gave their fanbase two Rumble matches with The Greatest Royal Rumble becoming part of the fall out from WrestleMania 34.

Daniel Bryan entered the match at number one and was able to last for an incredible hour and 16 minutes before he was eliminated by Big Cass. Even though this is a different Rumble, WWE has officially given Bryan the record and it's hard to see anyone ever breaking it.
