      @Deathpool_04 Před 3 lety +2

      I think number 1 would be more impressive since the second entry could likely take advantage of that like what Jericho did to HBK in 2003. Other than that, they are just about the same.

    Fun fact: There have been four Wrestlers who have challenged for the WWF/WWE Championship at Wrestlemania, who not only failed to capture the Championship at the Show, but have never won the Championship at any point in their respective careers. They are: King Kong Bundy , Ted DiBiase, Lex Luger, and Shinsuke Nakamura. Of those four, two have also never won a Championship, of any kind, in their WWF career: Bundy, and Luger.

    Its nice to know Lex Luger is still getting as pay cheque from the WWE.
    Personally i think his back is screwed because of the torture rack he used to put on people. Didn't matter how big they were, Luger would get them up in the rack (He even got Giant/Big Show in a rack) When Luger got them up, he would bounce up and down to make the move look more dramatic, but this must have compressed the hell out of his spine.

    Didn't one man gang win the prototype royal rumble? The one that Vince saw and thought the concept was a failure

    The first royal rumble was much earlier, at a house show, with the 1 man gang winning.

    12:05 correction: he was last seen announcing his entrance into the 2021 rumble match, and is entering second with Orton entering first.

      These are recorded quite awhile back. He had not been announced for the rumble yet when they recorded it.
