Fans will remember Maven for winning the first-ever Tough Enough competition, but also for eliminating The Undertaker from the 2002 Royal Rumble match.

That's right, the young rookie, who underwent intense training under the watch of Al Snow on Tough Enough, did the unthinkable. Whilst The Undertaker's back was turned in the match, Maven hit a stunning dropkick to send The Phenom over the rope.

The moment is still considered to be one of the biggest upsets seen in a Rumble match.


#7 Beth Phoenix eliminates The Great Khali from the 2010 Rumble match

In 2010, Beth Phoenix became the second female in WWE history to enter the men's star-studded contest.

The Glamazon went toe-to-toe with The Great Khali, and despite his efforts to eliminate her, she tricked him into elimination with a kiss to send him over the top rope.

It was a unique way to eliminate the former World Heavyweight Champion, as many others had tried and failed. It is a kiss that neither Beth nor The Great Khali will ever forget.
