The Warlord held the record for decades of being eliminated earlier than any other entrant into the Royal Rumble match. The moment he stepped through the rope the Immortal Hulk Hogan clotheslined him back over the top rope, eliminating him in just two seconds.

Warlord would have the distinction for being the Superstar eliminated faster than anyone ever in match history.Two other men have been eliminated in a quicker time than it takes to get pinned, one of which happened in 2018.

In that Royal Rumble match, Sheamus was eliminated by Heath Slater in just two seconds, this came after an attack during Slater's entrance; I bet his kids were proud of him. Sheamus is a former winner of the prestigious event which makes this record even more baffling.

The third person on this list would be the congo-leading No Way Jose. At last year's Royal Rumble, No Way Jose made his way to the ring and was immediately disposed over the ropes by Samoa Joe.
