Anytime Orton goes on an RKO spree. Why would you turn him around after seeing him RKO the previous 2 guys who did the same exact thing to him.
Anytime anyone goes on a finisher spree really. Let me just walk right into a chokeslam, back stabber, code breaker, RKO, stunner, whatever it is after a few guys have just been hit with it.

It didn't feel natural when Chavo hit 17 suplexes in a row that time?

Mark Henry in 1998. He was out on the apron, after I believe being put over the top by Faarooq, and.....then just jumped down to the floor. I believe the idea was that Faarooq was telling him to get out, but it all looked very clumsy and I always got the impression he botched it and they hotshoted the "boss telling him to get out" routine. He actually managed to get halfway back into the ring before he seemingly just gives up:

I was watching the finish to the '95 Rumble this morning, which I loved when I first saw it (which would have been like a year after it happened). In retrospect it made both Bulldog and Vince calling the action look incredibly stupid with Bulldog just turning away while Michaels was clearly still hanging on and McMahon definitively stating Bulldog had won even though the bell had never rang. That's like celebrating at the end of a football match before the ref has blown for full time.

if that's true - Alberto Del Rio didn't make it into the ring before the next entrant (Randy Orton), so technically Santino Marella is your winner They change the rules when they feel like it to be honest. e.g. Cena/Batista being a restart compared to Luger/Hart being a draw Rules are for entertainment purposes only...^^

What about anytime a face has a heel up for a press slam and slams him to the mat instead of throwing him over the top rope? The British Bulldog doing that to Ric Flair in the 1992 Rumble comes to mind. Bulldog seemingly did that spot in every Rumble he was in. I guess he truly was bizarre.

That Mark HEnry thing is hilarious. Can't believe I've never noticed it. That's one Rumble I've watched the most.

I still maintain that Mil Mascaras did not jump over the top rope because he went between the ropes and climbed up to the top rope that way. His feet did not go from inside the ring to over the ropes to outside. My theory on this was always that Mil Mascaras was such an asshole that he refused to lose anything (just like he always did, and refused to sell) and so deliberately DIDN'T really eliminate himself. Likely he's just an idiot, but still.

The top two guys not forming a pact and teaming up against every next guy.

Anyone who doesn't immediately slip out under the bottom rope, leave the ring area and simply wait until everyone else has been eliminated, before coming back to claim the win.

Macho pinning Yokozuna. It was such a stupid, terrible spot. Made no sense, and it looked abysmal...

Back body drop over the top. Walk away dusting your hands off.

Was that a spot or did he just f*** up Given that the ending was Yoko "kicking out" to toss Macho, and given that it was preceded by an elbow drop, I have to think it was planned...which makes it even more baffling. Never understood it at all.

Savage pinning Yoko takes the cake for me.

The Savage/Yoko spot could've easily been fixed if they just had Savage try to pick him up only to get overpowered and shoved over the top. Even as a kid, I couldn't buy a vet like Savage being dumb enough to go for a pin. Just plain terrible.
