Top 5 opening entrants in Royal Rumble history

#4 Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie (1998)

This would be Mick Foley's Royal Rumble.

Mick Foley and Terry Funk have always been linked together. They were two of the most hardcore wrestlers to wrestle in WWE, especially after their brutal Deathmatch a couple of years ago.

So when Funk joined the company under the name Chainsaw Charlie, it would only be symbolic that he started off the 1998 Royal Rumble match alongside Cactus Jack. This brought the match off to a brutal and creative start, making for one of the better opening pairings in Rumble history.

The fact that they were teaming together at the time made it all the better. This match was also the one where all three faces of Mick Foley entered. Charlie eliminated Jack from the match, only for Mankind to come out at number 16 and eliminate him.

After Mankind was thrown out, in stepped Dude Love at number 27. Love would make the final four before his final chance went up in smoke when he ran into Farooq.
