Seems every year we get Kofi (and one time John Morrison) doing something incredible to stay in the match like handstands, grabbing the barricade, and using a chair to name a few.
They looks cool but they are dumb. Think about it, what is stopping someone in the ring exiting through the bottom rope and just shoving Kofi to the ground.

To be fair, Regal did actually try to screw up Morrison's attempt at the barricade jump, but got kicked in the face for his trouble. |

Since he's actually a heel now, I would not be surprised if that actually happened this year. Because in theory, now unlike all past instances, you kinda *don't* want to see him succeed in his ridiculous move. I watched it earlier, it was 1990. It was just Jannetty and DiBiase, who was standing next to the ropes, in the ring and even if Marty had connected he would still have gone out. Bossman did something similar in '92 except that he bounced over the ropes rather than clearing them completely. Bossman got jobbed. He ran at whomever, I think Slaughter, but maybe not, misses and got eliminated. It was Flair. At the halfway point of the Rumble, and Piper was out next. I don't care for but that one was booked very well, because (a) Flair kinda needed the break, as he was set to win it, and (b) that crowd pop when PIPER, of all people, was coming to get Flair all by himself. (Jake came in next, and just sat there and let Piper beat Flair down for a while longer before he struck, another great moment) Also when Bossman went out, his head kinda got caught under the bottom rope when he fell out and did this hideous looking neck snap which.....which just looked too brutal to come back from. |

Alex "F**khead" Riley getting eliminated when he was meant to stay in. Miz and Cole saying how smart Alex Riley is in the ring and it going quiet only for Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler to say "Where is he?" Oh man I just watched this. He gets eliminated and a minute later Miz actually says "Notice Alex Riley. He's being very smart right now" even though he's already walked to the back and isn't even in the f***ing ring. |

Watch the 1995 Royal Rumble. Bulldog gets Michaels up for a military press slam about 3 times and just drops him in the middle of the ring when he could have easily thrown him out. Even my 10 year old self knew this was ridiculous and kayfabe destroying.

Yeah I watched that last night. It's very noticeable in the modern day when somebody gets eliminated when they're not meant ot because the commenators and production crew don't focus in on it (ie. they aren't being instructed to talk about it through their headsets). They all knew Riley was meant to be there until after the #30 entrant so him and Miz could get Cena out, so they just assumed he was still there. The same thing happened in (I think) 1998 when Mark Henry fell out. |
