Comedian Drew Carey made a cameo in the 2001 Royal Rumble to promote a comedy pay-per-view of his own, but with the motivation from WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon, the comedy superstar tried being a wrestling star for the night.

Wearing a sweatsuit, the future 'Price Is Right' host slapped high fives on his way to the ring at the Royal Rumble and was in a lucky position to eliminate the Hardy Boys off the top rope. Unfortunately for Carey, he was soon struck with shaking fear at the sight of the furious Kane. Their brief interaction is one of the single best celebrity-driven scenes in WWE history. Whether or not it's worthy of the Hall of Fame is another discussion to have.

Celebrities getting in the WWE Hall of Fame is always a sore spot for wrestling purists who feel these non-wrestlers have no place in the ranks of the wrestling greats. In 2011, Drew Carey was the celeb honoree, but fans that year did not care what he did to get there as he was heavily booed during the ceremony.
