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

#13 A run worth a million dollars?

Ted Dibiase, Royal Rumble 1990 (Duration: 44:47, Elimination Order: 18, No. of Eliminations: 2)

The recurring theme of this part has been all about those veteran personas who have anchored the Royal Rumble through their skills. Ted Dibiase pretty much did that for his run in the WWE, during the early boom period.

As an elder statesman but still, fit to go, Dibiase so well in tune with his character would carry the lethargic 1990 Royal Rumble to its eventual conclusion. He'd play the grand heel foil for much of the part, eventually eliminated by a rising star; The Ultimate Warrior.

He'd gain two eliminations, one alongside a bunch of competitors to toss out the gigantic Earthquake and the other being an easy to throw Koko B Ware. However, it was his play as the big bad that made his stay in the match another notch in the gold-plated belt of the Million Dollar Man.
