#6 Triple H - 2006
Everyone looks back at the 2006 Royal Rumble for the solid performance by winner Rey Mysterio, but he wasn't the only one to give a tremendous job as the number #1 entrant Triple H went just over an hour almost every step of the way with Rey.
The Game took home 5 eliminations before being the second last man eliminated by eventual winner Rey Mysterio. Although many saw the Mysterio win coming, Triple H also stood a strong chance as many knew he was the planned opponent for WWE Champion John Cena for WrestleMania 22 and the Game gave such a good performance that for a while, it seemed highly possible he would win.
