5 longest runs in the men’s Royal Rumble

#1) Finn Balor – 57:30

If you want to witness the definition of a star-making performance, then we highly suggest you go back and watch Finn Balor in last night’s Royal Rumble match.

The Demon King was able to prove to the world why he’s one of the best in-ring performers in WWE right now, with his 57 minutes being just 5 shy of the all-time record set by Rey Mysterio over a decade ago.

Balor means business and if he isn’t positioned as a credible threat to the Universal Championship moving forward, then we legitimately don’t know what WWE is doing anymore. It’s not like he needs to win the title right now, but his rise to the top is going to be special and this kind of Rumble showcase is exactly what he needed to get back on track.
