10 Fascinating WWE Royal Rumble 2011 Facts
6. It Marked Hornswoggle's Last PPV Main-Card Match
Hornswoggle managed an eight-year run as resident comic relief in WWE, having acting in that capacity from 2006 through his 2014 release. Occasionally, the pint-sized performer would be called upon to wrestle in pay-per-view matches, the absolute peak of which was during the revelation that he was Vince McMahon's bastard son.
Although Hornswoggle remained with WWE until the summer of 2014, his participation in the 2011 Rumble match was his final match on a pay-per-view main card. There, he lasted close to ten minutes prior to being eliminated by Sheamus.
This of course doesn't count a pair of PPV Kickoff matches that Hornswoggle and El Torito had in 2014, including a "WeeLC match" that was far better than almost anyone expected it to be.
