10 Fascinating WWE Royal Rumble 2010 Facts
5. ECW Had Just Three Entrants In The Rumble Match
ECW entrants in years past included the likes of CM Punk, John Morrison, The Miz, and others that would all "graduate" to better, more coveted brands. Had Regal actually been in the 2010 match, he'd have made a fourth ECW representative. As it was, only one tenth of the entrants hailed from the dying faction.
ECW's trio included Shelton Benjamin, Yoshi Tatsu, and Zack Ryder. After the brand went under, Tatsu and Ryder went to Raw, while Benjamin returned to his old SmackDown home. He would be released two months later, in April 2010.
Together, the three men lasted just one minute and 49 seconds in the match. Tatsu was tossed in 29 seconds, Ryder in 32, and Benjamin was the iron man of the group, at a grueling 48 seconds.
