All Curves, No Breaks – WWF Royal Rumble 2002
from Grapple City Rewind · host Bradley Palermo & Aaron Fink
We rewind to January 20, 2002 at Phillips Arena in Atlanta for Royal Rumble 2002, a stacked card sitting right on the edge of the Attitude Era and Ruthless Aggression. From WWF New York time-capsule chaos to Vince McMahon absolutely loving being evil, we break down every match, every Lawler quip that aged like milk, and every massive star moment. The Rumble itself is loaded with returns, all-time pops, and one Tough Enough contestant who chose death. Plus, we kick things off with predictions for Royal Rumble 2026 in Riyadh, argue about AJ Styles’ retirement rumors, and debate whether Dasani water can ever be intimidating. All killer, very little filler — it’s a full rewind.This episode brought to you by Weber4Law - your tag team partner when life body-slams you out of nowhere.
