Royal Rumble 2018: Ranking all number 1 entrants (Part 2)

#14 Poetry in motion

Jeff Hardy, Royal Rumble 2001 (Duration: 06:36, Elimination Order: 4, No. of Eliminations: 3)

A few years into his second run in the WWE, Jeff Hardy managed to scale the ladder to finally become the main event talent. The year he managed that feat, would be the year he and Matt Hardy would have a falling out and an intense sibling rivalry.

It seems the seeds for both, had been planted long ago by a company who as we mentioned loved to have tag team partners square off. At the Rumble, Jeff and Matt came face to face but not for long enough.

The duo worked the field in fluid motion, each managing an elimination count of three with the support of the other. Of course, the final elimination between them was that of Jeff's at the hands of Matt Hardy.

Whatever the case, in his short stay Jeff managed a burst of energy that saw him prove he is a future prospect worth watching out for. If it weren't for Matt's silly intervention, maybe the boys could have gone further in the race.

Maybe that's why they were never able to climb the ladders and win the gold at WrestleMania that year.
