Counting down to the 2019 WWE Royal Rumble, Solomonster ranks the Top 10 championship matches in Royal Rumble history. This week, #9 on the countdown comes to us from the 1999 Royal Rumble in Anaheim, CA with Mankind defending the WWE title against The Rock in their infamously brutal “I Quit” Match.

Rock is the goat and mankind was awesome too
Hoping to see Jericho v Benoit, Angle v Benoit, Cena v Styles, and Brock v Rollins v Cena on the countdown
I was about 7 years old when i saw that!!!
Manikins vs the Rock i quit match i was there that night with my brother mike that was crazy match at Royal Rumble 1999 Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim in Anaheim, California
Wow #9 I figured this would higher
This was my favorite Royal Rumble championship match. Rock became more vicious, uncaring and sadistic than before. He did whatever it took to be the champion. He even distracted Steve Austin so Mr. McMahon could win the Royal Rumble.
No. 1 is Roman Reigns vs the Philly crowd, isn't it?
Always watching that match I never understood how it was only supposed to be 5 chair shots. If that were the case after the 2nd chairshot why not roll out of the ring and begin the finish down the aisle way. Instead mankind gets up and is egging the rock on to hit him more and charging at him
I'm going to presume we'll be seeing Foley's street fight match with Triple H somewhere on this countdown as well?
Good match but hard to watch.
