8. Shortest Royal Rumble Match Time
Once again, this record is one no wrestler would like to best. Royal Rumbles are often much-hyped affairs. They are a fan’s dream in which wrestlers of all shapes and sizes are pitted against each other at once inside the ring. It’s a confusing cluster at first, with those who are knocked out of the ring disqualified. Eventually the numbers file down and there is a last man standing.
One of the more hilarious moments in Royal Rumble history was in 2009 when latecomer Santino Marella charged down the ramp to the tune of his intro music. He ran up to the stage, leapt through the ropes, and was immediately thrown back out. He stood up, shouting he wasn’t ready, but the refs wouldn’t allow reentry. His record of one second in a Royal Rumble match is one that will surely stand the test of time.
