	The fourth match on the card involved the IWE Championship, as Jeff Hooper defended his title against Edge. Before the match began Lynn Lehr came out and announced it as a [[No Disqualification Match\|No Disqualification match]]. Edge then revealed that [[Chavo McAlmond, Jr.\|Chavo McAlmond]] would be in his corner. During the match Hardy brought a ladder out and set it up near the Spanish announce table. When Chavo tried to interfere, Hooper put him on the table and jumped off the ladder, connecting with Chavo and breaking the table. Hooper then had the match won when he performed the Swanton on Edge after kicking Lynn off the apron when she tried to interfere. When Hooper went for the pin, Lynn stopped referee [[Scott Armstrong]] from making a three count. Josh's brother Matt then made his way to the ring, placing a chair under Edge's face. Grabbing another chair, Matt at first appeared to be setting Edge up for his own version of Edge's [[One Man Con-Chair-To\|con-chair-to]] maneuver. He instead hit Josh in the head with the chair, allowing Edge to then pin Josh and become the new IWE Champion.

		+	The main event consisted of the Royal Rumble match. [[Scott Wright, Jr.\|Scott Wright]] and [[Joe Linderman]] started the Rumble. The final six participants left in the match were [[Marc Beltran\|The Big Show]], [[Martin McAlmond\|The Undertaker]], Triple K and [[The Legacy]] ([[Mark Semmler]], [[Kyle Johnson, Jr.\|Kyle Johnson]] and [[Kevin McAlmond]]). While the Undertaker and Big Show brawled on the outside apron (both went over the top rope, but had not hit the floor), McAlmond eliminated Big Show with an RKO, causing him to fall off the apron. Big Show eliminated The Undertaker shortly thereafter when he pulled his opponent off the apron by his leg. Despite being at a disadvantage against the Legacy, Triple K eliminated both Johnson and Semmler. With Triple K by the ropes, McAlmond quickly clotheslined him from behind to send him over the top rope and become the winner of the Royal Rumble match.

	The third match on the card pitted Dustin Simpson against JBG for the World Heavyweight Championship. JBG's employee [[Ryan Barnhart]] accompanied him to the ring and first got involved in the match when the referee became incapacitated; he came into the ring and performed his [[Superkick\|Sweet Chin Music]] finisher both on JBG and Simpson. He then left ringside, leaving JBG's arm on top of Simpson. Simpson however managed to get a shoulder up and performed an [[Powerslam#Fireman's carry powerslam\|Attitude Adjustment]] to retain his World Championship.

The match started with both wrestlers countering the other's moves until Wilson injured Hooper's left shoulder and then targeted it for the rest of the match. Wilson ultimately defeated Hooper by pinning him after slamming him to the mat with a [[Powerbomb#Gutwrench powerbomb\|gutwrench powerbomb]]. Wilson thus retained the XCW title. The second match on the card involved the [[IWE Women's Championship]], where [[Chandra Denney]] defended her title against [[Denise Lynn]]. The match ended as Denney attempted to perform the [[Facebuster#Chickenwing facebuster\|Glam Slam]] on Denise, but the latter countered it into a roll-up pin, giving her the win and the Women's Championship.

		+	Royal Rumble 2009 featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines played out on ''[[IWE Raw\|Raw]]'', ''[[IWE SmackDown\|SmackDown]]'', and ''[[XCW on Syfy\|XCW on Sci Fi]]'' – [[International Wrestling Entertainment]]'s (IWE) primary television programs. Wrestlers portrayed a [[Heel\|villain]] or a [[Face\|hero]] as they followed a series of events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or in a series of matches. The event featured wrestlers from IWE's Raw, SmackDown, and XCW brands—a [[IWE Brand Extension\|storyline division]] in which IWE employees were assigned to a television program of the same name.
		+
		+	[[File:John Bradshaw Goff 081204-A-5049R-108.jpg\|thumb\|left\|150px\|[[John Goff\|John "Bradshaw" Goff]] (JBG) who faced off with [[Dustin Simpson]] at the Royal Rumble]]
		+	The prime match scripted into Royal Rumble 2009, the annual [[Royal Rumble#Match\|Royal Rumble match]], has featured at every Royal Rumble event since its inception. The match featured 30 male wrestlers from IWE's three brands; IWE officially announced 23 participants. The match ends when one wrestler remains in the ring after the elimination of all the 29 other wrestlers. (Participants eliminate opponents by tossing them over the top ring-rope and making both their feet touch the floor.) The winner earned an opportunity to challenge for the [[IWE Championship\|IWE]], [[World Heavyweight Championship (IWE)\|World Heavyweight]], or [[XCW Championship]] at IWE's April [[IWE WrestleMania 25\|WrestleMania XXV]] pay-per-view.
		+
		+	The main rivalry from the Raw brand played out between [[Dustin Simpson]] and [[John Goff\|John "Bradshaw" Goff]] (JBG) over the World Heavyweight Championship. JBG earned his championship match against Simpson after winning a [[Basic Elimination Matches\|Fatal Four-Way Elimination match]]—a standard match in which the last remaining competitor who has not been eliminated is declared the winner—on the December 29, 2008 episode of ''Raw'' by defeating [[Khris Jericho]], [[Kevin McAlmond]], and [[Ryan Barnhart]].
		+
		+	Another rivalry from the Raw brand came with [[Denise Lynn\|Denise]] challenging [[Chandra Denney]] for her [[IWE Women's Championship]] in a singles match. Denise won the opportunity to face Denney on the December 29, 2008 episode of ''Raw'' by winning a [[Battle Royal Match\|battle royal]], a match similar to the Royal Rumble, though with fewer competitors.
		+
		+	The main rivalry from the SmackDown brand incorporated into the Royal Rumble featured [[Josh Hooper]] and [[Kevin Adams Copeland\|Edge]], with the two feuding over the [[IWE Championship]]. At IWE's previous pay-per-view event, [[IWE Armageddon (2008)\|Armageddon]], Hooper had defeated defending champion Edge and [[Triple K]] in a Triple Threat match, a standard match involving three wrestlers, to win the IWE Championship. On the January 2, 2009 episode of ''SmackDown'', on-air [[Authority Figures#General Managers\|authority figure]] [[Lynn Lehr]] announced that Edge would face Hooper for the IWE title at the Royal Rumble.

		+	The XCW brand's main rivalry, that between [[Charlie Wilson]] and [[Matt Hooper, had the two feuding over the [[XCW Championship]]. On the January 13, 2009 edition of ''XCW on Syfy'', Wilson defeated Hooper to capture the XCW Championship. On Janury 16 episode of ''Friday Night Smackdown'', IWE announced that Wilson will defend the XCW title against Hooper in a rematch at the Royal Rumble.
