BTLN UPDATE - ROYAL RUMBLE 15






Congrats Aiden! Aiden Burch is the 2019 Royal Rumble Champion! Twenty-nine guys competed in the fifteenth Royal Rumble! We had ten more guys then we had last year!


We always start the Royal Rumble with the Lightweights Division. This year, we didn't have the Lightweight and Heavyweight divisions. We started with the grade sevens, then eights, nines, tens and elevens. We changed it up because there were not enough Heavyweights this year. It actually worked really well, so we might go this way in the future.

The final four were Aiden, Bryce, Brennan and John. It didn't take long before John was out and we were down to three. Aiden and Brennan were working together, but Brennan slipped and fell out of the ring. Now we were down to the final two! For the first time ever, we had a grade eight and nine in the final two!

Aiden and Bryce battled it out for a long time, in the "Final Two-Ropes Down" tradition that we started a few years ago. I was sure that it would be over quickly, but it actually lasted quite a long time! There isn't any place to hide when the ropes are down, making for an exciting finish! In the end, Aiden was able to force Bryce's hand out of the ring for the win! Aiden is in grade eight and is the youngest Royal Rumble Champion we have ever had!


Congrats to both Bryce and Aiden, it was an amazing finish!
