10 Remarkable Achievements By WWE Midcarders

10. R-Truth Simultaneously Eliminates Big Show & Mark Henry From 2010 Royal Rumble

Scoring eliminations in a Royal Rumble isn't that uncommon an achievement, seeing as there's 29 people to get rid of each year, but every year there's one or two big eliminations that are saved for the big stars and usually the eventual winner. In the 2010 Royal Rumble, two of the match's biggest entrants, Mark Henry & Big Show, were in the ring at the same time. Bearing in mind that the total (billed) combined weight of Big Show & Mark Henry is the best part of 850lbs, eliminating them from a Royal Rumble match in one go would be a feat of strength that might make even The Incredible Hulk break a sweat. So who was this Herculean achievement awarded to? No, not John Cena. Or Kane, The Great Khali, Batista, Undertaker etc., but R-Truth. Truth entered the Rumble at #25, and in all fairness, only had to slightly tip Mark Henry over the top rope, who took Big Show down with him. Nonetheless, it was the second biggest mass of wrestlers being eliminated at the same time from a Royal Rumble (Shawn Michaels once eliminated Vader & Yokozuna) by just one person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp3K-AmYKDc The sad thing for Truth is, it that his achievement was hardly mentioned during or after the Rumble, and Truth only lasted five more minutes before hitting the floor himself.
