Jerry Lawler was a surprise entrant in this Royal Rumble match as he was commentating during the bout, with Vince McMahon and Jim Ross. Entering at No. 22, Lawler made his way into the ring, with Ross and McMahon looking in disbelief.

However, his stay in the ring was short-lived. Eliminated by Bret Hart, who took him out with just two punches, Lawler made his way back to the commentary table as if nothing happened.

The match was eventually won by Stone Cold Steve Austin.


#7 Mo (WWE Royal Rumble 1995, 3 seconds)

Robert Horne, better known as Mo in WWE, entered the 1995 Royal Rumble at No. 16. However, he was eliminated just as quickly as he entered the ring. Charging towards King Kong Bundy, the latter just ducked, with Mo falling outside the ring. The crowd cheered loudly for the elimination. The match was eventually won by Shawn Michaels.

Most importantly, this wasn't the only elimination from this match in this list.
