5 Best No. 8 Entries in the Royal Rumble

#3 Rey Mysterio (2005) - Eliminated 27th - 2 Eliminations

Rey Mysterio hit a 619 on Muhammad Hassan during the 2005 Royal Rumble

A year before Rey Mysterio would win the Royal Rumble going from the second position, he would enter in at number 8 and last until the final four. Rey would last in the 2005 Royal Rumble 38 minutes and 25 seconds, making it all the way to the final four, before being eliminated by Edge who came out one entry before Rey Mysterio.

Appearing alongside close friends Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero during the Rumble, Rey managed to eliminate Kenzo Suzuki and Booker T, with the help of Eddie, on the way to his fourth place finish. Rey clearly showed in this Royal Rumble that he clearly had the staying power to last for a very long time, and the dedication of the 2006 Royal Rumble to Eddie, just a year after the two had been in the Royal Rumble together was pretty touching.
