The Royal Rumble match is an incredible opportunity for all involved. Whilst the field of 30 is usually easy to whittle down to two or three potential winners, in canon everyone has a chance at victory. Therefore you would assume that all competitors would do all that they possibly could to avoid being eliminated.

Whether through cowardice or passion, these men flung themselves over the top rope and down to the floor, in a match where the only real objective is to avoid that very happening. It takes a lot of ability to achieve the only thing you are supposed to avoid.

From Andre the Giant to Montel Vontavious Porter via Drew Carey, here are the eight men who have eliminated themselves from the Royal Rumble.
