One that will always have a place in my heart (mostly because i was there) was the first one that Austin won (98?) where McMahon had put 100,000 grand on Austin's head. The ring was full everybody was brawling and that glass shatters, and everybody stops and looks to the entrance way. However, Austin jumps in from the crowd, stuns Marc Mero tosses him out, the crowd goes absolutely nuts. Then he goes on an asskicking rampage that eventually leads to him winning it all.

Actually, the $100,000 bounty was from the 1999 Royal Rumble. And technically, Austin's first win was in 1997, even though he cheated.

Taka and Funaki getting repeatedly eliminated is probally my favorite Ru,ble moment ever. I was just LOL'ing all over the place whenver they kept coming back, and the last throw was just BRUTAL.
But since that wasn't on the poll, I voted for London from this year. Not just because I ordered the PPV, but because that looked sick. London will always have that under his belt. Landed RIGHT on his face in a true Holy S*** moment.

God, I can't remember his name, but the Viking Guy. The "HUSS HUSS HUSS HUSS" guy. I just remember he HUSS HUSS HUSS'd down to the ring, got in, did a lap around the ring HUSS HUSS HUSSing, got eliminated, and then HUSS HUSS HUSS'd to the back. It was the first rumble I ever saw. Totally SOLD.

In the immortal words of Joey Styles: "OH MY GOD!"

Your talking aboot The Berserker
My favourite is Sgt Slaughters almost "Trademark" elimination, whipped in to the turnbuckle, hits sturnum first then falls head first out of the ring (Seen best in the 91 rumble)
OR
When Chainz got eliminated by Stone Cold and hit the stairs on the way down, that one had me laughing (RR 98)

The highlight of Maven's career.
And then he was promptly thrown into a popcorn machine.

But yes, it was a very nice bump. and your Chainz reference made me remember 1991 when Crush was eliminated by Hogan. It was a nice bump.

I never saw the London elimination, or even heard about it until now.
My favorite is most definitely Mil Mascaras, who decided to do a flying crossbody off the top rope to someone on the outside, thus eliminating himself. He then gets back in the ring and the refs are yelling at him to get the heck out while he looks confused. Also, the match earlier in the same card (I think) was a 6-man tag match with WWF's B-list luchadores including a legend past his prime that gets up a lot of speed for a suicide dive.... stops... steps outside the ring.... bunny hops onto the guy. My friend and I watched that so many times it was great. Then he clearly misses his double-stomp finisher off the top, and the announcers even say something to that regard, and he pins the schmuck anyway. "I guess he got enough of it," says Jim Ross. That was good times.

How about Mo from Men on a Mission in 1995? He runs in one side of the ring and is immediately thrown out the other. He might as well have not shown up.

Unofficial or not... Taka's landing was flat out ridiculous.

I enjoyed Gillberg's elimination. His entrance was longer than the time he spent in the ring. And even after elimination, he was still doing all of the Goldberg posing outside the ring.

I think it was in 1995 a well past his prime Dick Murdoch fell out of the ring all on his own. I think he just got tired and decided he was done so he started backing up and backed right into and over the ropes. No one was even near him at the time

I liked when Mabel got thrown out by the rest of the participants, it was funny. I don't remeber when but i think Bastion Bogger was there, and he has only been in 2 rumbles or so, so it wouldnt be so hard to find out.

Taka's elimination was just sick. Period. It's almost wrong to get entertainment out of the way he landed on the ground, but it was still crazy as hell. I remember thinking "Holy shit, that had to freaking hurt." That's a moment where even people who argue that wrestling is fake say, "Damn, that looked pretty bad."

That had to be 1994, except Bastion Booger wasn't in that one. He was supposed to be in it, and even drew number 28. But he had to redraw a number because he didn't keep his a secret and he allegedly got "a stomach ache."
