San Antonio, Texas is fourth on this list with 60,447 showing up to one of the biggest Royal Rumble events in history which featured iconic matches.

The Royal Rumble match saw Stone Cold Steve Austin enter at Number 5, and eliminated Bret Hart last to win the match to a loud pop from the crowd. It can be said that the pop was the loudest ever in Royal Rumble history.

Vader, with Paul Bearer by his side, faced The Undertaker in a match in the mid-card and defeated him. The main event was for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship which was between the champion Sycho Sid and the challenger Shawn Michaels. Michaels defeated Sid to win the WWF World Heavyweight Championship amid controversy.

Michaels later vacated the WWF World Heavyweight Championship on the Thursday Raw Thursday special, where he gave his now-infamous "lost my smile" promo, citing knee problems as his reason to abdicate the title.
