10 Fascinating Facts About WWE In 2015

10. Titus O’Neil Botched A Royal Rumble Record

Nobody who watched it could ever forget Titus O'Neil's 'Worldwide Slide' at the so-called Greatest Royal Rumble in 2018. It was one of the most iconic botches in WWE history, and made everyone laugh behind the curtain. Vince McMahon wasn't giggling back in 2015 though. Titus botched what was supposed to be a record-setting moment.

O'Neil was meant to be eliminated from the Rumble after just one second (at most), but he was out of position when Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose charged in to eliminate him. So, the trio had to repeat that spot quickly. In the end, Titus actually lasted four seconds, which matched Jerry Lawler and Bushwhacker Luke, and Vince was reportedly fuming about it.

How dare a wrestler double down on embarrassment.

WWE wanted O'Neil to at least match Santino Marella's exploits from 2009. The funny man went 1.9 seconds, and Titus was going to claim the new unwanted record. It wasn't to be, and all of the heat came down on O'Neil's shoulders. Oh well!
