You’re out! The Royal Rumble has been around for over thirty years. At twenty nine eliminations a year, that’s about nine hundred eliminations. While some of these are a sad end of the line for the entrants, there are others which aren’t exactly a surprise. Those are some of the funnier eliminations, which is quite the variety to take another look at over the years.
It was fun when it ended. Check out some of these funny eliminations:
WWE has released a video on their Instagram page showing the funniest Royal Rumble eliminations over the years. These clips range throughout the history of the match, with some dating back nearly twenty years. Several of these people are comedy acts who weren’t going to be long for the match in the first place, though some of them are big names with a former World Champion included.
Opinion: Since it’s WWE comedy, your individual tastes may vary. However, you’re almost guaranteed to get at least one laugh out of the thing. Some of these are better than others of course but there are some classics that work as well as anything that WWE has done in the match’s history. You have to have something like that in there somewhere for the sake of lightening the mood a bit, which can work very well.
Which of these is your favorite? What did WWE leave off of the list? Let us know in the comments below.
