So, we all know the Royal Rumble facts that are shown in January, near the time of the Royal Rumble, correct? So, what I want to know is...what about the only person to be DISQUALIFIED from a Royal Rumble? Where's that fact? If you didn't know, in the 2008 Royal Rumble, Finlay entered before his number was called, resulting in him being 'disqualified', and on technicality, made the Royal Rumble the first 29 man royal rumble match. Why don't we hear about that?

Don't think it matters that much tbh. While he was disqualified for entering prior to his turn, he still entered the ring for a minute or even a few seconds. I didn't even remember before you mentioned it. :P

True, but he also left on his own accord, not being 'tossed over the top rope' persay. Even so, it should still be mentioned, as it is an interesting Rumble fact.

Yeah, they probably should. 'The only participant in history to disqualify himself'.

Would be a lot more interesting then hearing about Santino getting eliminated by Kane every year. >_>

I thought Brian Pillman won in 2004...or was it Steve Blackman? No there wasn't even a 2004 Royal Rumble.

Obvious fact Kane has eliminated the most amount of wrestlers in a single rr match 

 

He has also competed in more Royal Rumble matches than anybody and is only a couple of eliminations away from breaking the record set by Shawn Michaels for the most overall eliminations in the Royal Rumble match.

Because it's not fully true, while Finlay was Disqualified for entering early back in the day we've had people disqualified from entering the rumble for not coming out in the "two minute" period of their entrance thus disqualifying them and turning the rumble into 29 men rumbles. Bastion Booger, Randy Savage, someone in the 98 rumble.

Since 2005, most of the Rumble Winners and Runner-Ups ended up in a Main Event at WrestleMania that same year.

2005: Batista last eliminated John Cena. Batista challenged Triple H for the World Title while John Cena challenged JBL for the WWE Title.

2006: Rey Mysterio last eliminated Randy Orton, and they both became involved in a Triple Threat Match for the World Championship.

2007: The Undertaker last eliminated Shawn Michaels. While Taker faced Batista for the World Title, Shawn faced John Cena for the WWE Title.

2008: John Cena last eliminated Triple H and both became involved in a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Title.

2009: Randy Orton last eliminated Triple H and they faced each other for the WWE Championship.

2010: Edge last eliminated John Cena. Edge went on to face Chris Jericho for the World Title while John Cena went on to face Batista for the WWE Title.

2012: Sheamus last eliminated Chris Jericho. Sheamus went on to face Daniel Bryan for the World Championship in a match that pissed everyone off while Chris Jericho went on to face CM Punk for the WWE Championship.
