1. The Undertaker = Shane McMahon

Saudi Arabia was delighted to see The Undertaker show up even though it was the show's worst-kept secret and his presence in the country had been leaked beforehand. His legend still carries weight when he's used sparingly, and this was proof of that. One thing though: 'Taker was booked like 2020's version of Shane McMahon.

Seriously, he was.

Back at Crown Jewel 2018, then-babyface Shane-O muscled in on the WWE World Cup's final match and beat Dolph Ziggler in less than three minutes to take home the trophy. That kickstarted his 'Best In The World' gimmick. 'Taker's intrusion on the equally-as-useless Tawaiq Mountain Trophy gauntlet was eerily similar.

He replaced a kayfabe injured star (Rey Mysterio) and beat a full-timer without breaking sweat to take home the token prize. If this leads to the iconic old-timer forcing Greg Hamilton to call him 'The Only WWE Superstar Who Has Scaled Tuwaiq Mountain', then bring it on.

Only kidding.
