WWE presents their annual Royal Rumble pay-per-view at the beginning of every year. But when it comes to hilarious and unexpected moments, there aren't many that can top the 2005 Royal Rumble match.
John Cena and Batista were the final two men that year and something went wrong when both men fell out of the ring at the same time. The fact that there was a live audience meant that WWE was forced to address the situation since they didn't want two winners like 1994.

The referees argued that they believed both men were winners before Vince McMahon angrily strutted down to the ring. In the process, he managed to tear both of his quads and couldn't stand up. This left the angry chairman sitting hunched over the ropes whilst shouting instructions at both Cena and Batista for the match to be restarted.
McMahon then had to be helped to the back since he was still unable to stand up on his own.
