You are likely already aware of the fact that the late great Scott Hall shockingly never once made an appearance in WWE's legendary Royal Rumble contest.

But does that mean that Razor Ramon never found himself getting thrown over the top rope in the match? Well, no actually.

Oddly enough, back when WWE thought it would be a wonderful idea to simply recast the role of 'The Bad Guy' in the wake of Hall's departure to WCW in 1996, Rick Bognar's jarring version of Ramon did actually pop up in the following year's 30-person battle royal.

After entering the contest at number #3, this inferior Razor didn't survive all that long in the match eventually won by a certain mean S.O.B., getting launched out of the match by Ahmed Johnson 17-seconds into his Rumble run.

Hall did technically boast a number of appearances at the PPV - fighting Bret Hart for the WWE title in 1993, defending the Intercontinental strap in 1994, losing that belt to Jeff Jarrett in 1995, and again dropping the title at the 1996 event, this time to Goldust.

However, history will always show that while the legend didn't ever appear in the titular bout, Razor Ramon bizarrely still did.
