Worst Rumble Entrant

[Susan "Poison" Candy]

So there is a thread about the Best Comedy Rumble Entrant but for every good entrant there has to be a worst entrant aka Waste of a Spot. Out of all the Rumble Matches, which entrant or entrants do you consider being the Worst Rumble Entrant.

Mine I posted in the Comedy Rumble Entrant thread.

taz singing along to the theme tune made that

Tazz: Can you scream like that JR?
JR:No i don't think so.
Tazz: I bet if you grabbed ya yambags you could.

Tazz: First the wig got eliminated, then Lamont, then The Cat. Which is good cause i'm sick of all this dancing. Puh.

Yeah Tazz and Lamont and the Wig getting Eliminated made Ernest Millers spot work. Other than that he was possibly one of the worst Rumble Entrant Spots Ever

[The Rick Jericho]

Razor Ramon 1997 hands down.

It wasn't even Scott Hall.

[BorneAgain]

Relative to his status, Mil Mascares has to be one of the worst.

He's not that entertaining in ring, crowd really doesn't go all that nuts for him, and other than eliminating a few other Lucha Libre talent, his big spot is looking like an idiot for eliminating himself via a crossbody on an opponent that was already thrown out.

[CMWaters]

How about one that was the worst in multiple Royal Rumble matches?

Aside from 1998 when he was in the final four, Faarooq was pretty much eliminated before the next number came out every Rumble he was in afterwards (may be mis-remembering 1997, but he was eliminated by Ahmed Johnson with some...not that great looking shots by a 2x4).

[Starshine]

Carlos Colon, he was too young for the match.

If I recall, didn't Mil eliminate himself because he didn't want to be eliminated by anyone else?

[jivesoulbrah]

The bald tag team guys in 2020, they were so meaningless I don’t even care what their names are.

[XIII]

Tie: Headhunter 1 & 2 or the Squat team or whatever they were. In the ring for a total of like 2 minutes

They really should have randomly booked peak dickhead HBK vs. Mil on Raw or something. I need to see that mess. lol

To be fair though at least his performance was memorable. Bradshaw also entered that year, hit a few moves and was eliminated by Chris Benoit in less than 90 seconds. At least The Cat got a laugh out of me.

[Stu]

Depends on the criteria, kayfabe or otherwise. Warlord, Luke and Santino may not have lasted long but their spots are memorable. Tom Brandi sucked in 1998, but he was inconsequential in the first place. Tazz was tossed right away in 2001, but he was injured.

I want to say Matt Hardy in 2010. He only lasted 20 seconds, but why?

[Rudy Gobert Weather Machine]

I love Titus O'Neil but he is literally the first name that came to mind. Dude is the Hank Aaron XXIV of Royal Rumbles.

[sarkerpolseng]

Tom Brandy

[Eunös ✈]

Bastion Booger..Dude never even made it out.

At least Spike Dudley got a far as the ramp.

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

If we're talking failed attempts to win the thing, Kofi Kingston's been in like 12 Rumbles and hasn't won a single one of them. Ziggler has a similarly high number.

His dumb spots are made even dumber by the fact he's lasted a combined 15 seconds in ring after them before getting eliminated as well.

[Banjo Is Broken]

I don't think this place generally counts "The Greatest Royal Rumble Ever" as a regular Rumble, but this list just wouldn't be complete unless someone mentioned Sumo Guy.

[Cvslfc123]

Rey Mysterio in 2014

Faarooq and Godfather always really sucked in Rumbles with tons of very short showings although each did have one good outing sprinkled in the crap where they made the final four (Kama making the last three in 1996 because Austin got eliminated on accident and Faarooq making it to the last three in 98).

Warlord got eliminated by Hogan in two seconds in 89, had a whatever 8 minute run in 90 where he was used as fodder for a way past his prime Andre The Giant, and then was eliminated in under two minutes in 91 and 92 despite getting excellent draws in both with 29 and 30 respectively. Also didn't eliminate one guy in all four of his appearances which is pretty pathetic for a big strong guy like him.

Bushwhacker Luke had the memorable 4 second run in 91 where got pitched right out by Earthquake in four seconds and just kept marching to back and only has a combined total of three minutes in three Rumbles.

Jarrett for a guy who was always pushed always did shockingly bad. Tossed by Savaage in about a minute in 94 despite being a new guy who they had plans for, tossed in about a minute again by Owen in 98, tossed by Austin in about three minutes in 99, and then his surprise appearance in 2019 where he got beat up and tossed by Elias in about a minute.

Jack Swagger and A-Train are tied for the record with most appearances without scoring an elimination. Both were in six. I always found this pretty insane as both were big guys who were usually pushed to a degree so you think they would've at least got one at some point.
