10 Unbelievable Royal Rumble Moments

#4 Santino Marella sets an ignoble record

Kane eliminates Santino Marella during the Royal Rumble match in 2009

For a very long time, there was a Royal Rumble record that no one thought would ever be broken. That record was held by one half of the Powers of Pain, the Warlord. Warlord had been eliminated from the Royal Rumble in a record setting three seconds.

Then, faster than you can say 'Hold my beer,' Santino Marella smashed that record to bits. During the Royal Rumble match in 2009, Santino Marella entered the ring only to be immediately clotheslined over the top rope by the Big Red Machine Kane.

Santino Marella hit the floor and strutted about for several seconds as if he were confused, but he could not escape reality. He had been in the Rumble match for 1.9 seconds, setting a record that exists to this day in the WWE.
