5 WWE Royal Rumble records that will be difficult to break

#4 Shortest time in the ring (fastest elimination)

When The Warlord was eliminated by Hulk Hogan in 2 seconds during the 1989 Royal Rumble, nobody expected that record to be broken. However, Santio Marella managed to do exactly that when he was eliminated by Kane in 1.5 seconds.

One point five seconds – it takes more time just to say those words and thus it would be highly impossible for anyone to enter the ring and get thrown over the top of the rope in less time.

Can the record be matched? Nobody knows. There is a chance that Santio might become the joint holder of the record but it will still be milliseconds apart and WWE will find ways to keep the record on the 'Italian' itself.

And why now? Him shouting “I wasn't ready! I wasn't ready” after getting eliminated was one of the best moments in Royal Rumble history and keeping it intact would be the best thing to do for WWE.

Unless things go south between Marella and WWE, expect this record to remain the way it is for a really long time.
