The 2018 WWE Royal Rumble has come and gone, but it was filled with some incredible moments and tons of surprises. Since there was both a men's and women's Royal Rumble match, there was twice the amount of fantastic and shocking moments. If you missed out on the action we have you covered with the Royal Rumble results.
While it wasn't a surprise moment from either of the Rumble matches, there was an amazing sign in the audience. It may be a little tough to see, but to the left of the referee, there was an amazing sign that read "Localize Mother 3." We couldn't agree with you more.
