#7. The Beast stood tall in 2003
Speaking of dominating debut years, there's hardly anyone who has had a rookie year as good as Brock Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar faced The Big Show at the Royal Rumble to guarantee his spot at the night's main event. He entered the match at #29 and won by last eliminating The Undertaker.
The Beast Incarnate also broke the record for least time spent by a Rumble winner, having won the match in 8 minutes and 59 seconds. However, this record was smashed by John Cena in 2008 and now rests with Edge.
