#5 Roman Reigns - 2014

A hostil
A hostile crowd... That loved him!

'The Big Dawg' Roman Reigns entered the 2014 Royal Rumble with so much momentum behind him. WWE was ready to begin building him to portray the new big bad-ass in town. Roman had broken a record at Survivor Series 2 months earlier, eliminating all 5 of his team's opponents on the opposite side and here, he looked to take another.

Roman would break the record for most eliminations in a single Royal Rumble match, a record that had been held by Kane for 13 years. Roman took it with just one elimination over Kane's 11 eliminations, with 12. Reigns entered halfway through at #15 and lasted more than 33 minutes before being the last eliminated by winner Batista.

Roman was actually incredibly over with the live audience, which makes it even more of a shame that he couldn't repeat that when he would win the Rumble match the following year.
