The 2016 Royal Rumble match was a fairly pedestrian one for "The Big Red Monster". Kane entered from the number seven spot, lasted 19 minutes, tossed out R-Truth after a failed "ladder climb", and then fell victim to Braun Strowman.

It was the 19th Royal Rumble that Kane took part in, in a 21 year stretch (missing only 1998 and 2012). By and far, it's the most Rumbles participated in by one man.

The next closest to him on the list are Big Show and Shawn Michaels, who have each wrestled in 12, followed by The Undertaker and Goldust with 11 apiece. The only other wrestlers to have reached double-digits are Rikishi, Mark Henry, The Miz, and Chris Jericho, each with ten appearances.
