I've haven't necessarily paid too much attention to the Rumble match in recent years since probably the Thunderdome one during Covid. Rewatched the 92 Rumble and still holds up to me. The Texas Rumble with Taker, Goldberg, Lesnar resonates but I need to go back and rewatch that one.
With Rumble season underway, is the '92 Rumble still considered the greatest or has it been dethroned?

If I had a Top 10 list of my all-time favorite matches, the 1992 Royal Rumble would definitely be on that list. In addition to watching a great match, you also get to listen to Bobby Heenan's crowning achievement as a "broadcast journalist."
2001
97-00 if were talking The Rumble as a whole event and not just the match itself
Still my GOAT Rumble. The star power, the stories, could Flair do it from the 3 spot while fending off old and new rivals(Piper, Hogan,etc) Could Piper become a double champ after dethroning the Mountie earlier for the IC belt?
Savage saying fukk the Rumble and wanting to murder Jake for everything he had put him and Liz through
Hoegan getting eliminated by Sid(with the cheers for it happening being edited into boos on subsequent broadcasts during their feud)and being a sore lover and helping to eliminate Sid
Bobby Heenan going absolutely ham on commentary for Flair
My GOAT

Easily 
Nothing comes close. So much storytelling from Flair fighting for his life, Hoegan getting shytted on, Sid being the one (despite jobbing to softball), to Macho Man trying to eliminate himself to put hands on Jake the Snake
That Rumble alone was the last of an era. The final time we were able to see a Golden Peak of past, present, and potential future.
Nothing will ever come close to 92. I mean that shyt with all my furry chest.
