10 Worst WWE Royal Rumble Number 30 Entrants Ever
1. Rey Mysterio - 2014
Has a professional wrestler ever been so brazenly thrown under the bus as Rey Mysterio was at the end of the 2014 Royal Rumble? The Yes! Movement was arguably at its peak, and the Pittsburgh crowd desperately wanted to see Daniel Bryan come out to rescue what was fast becoming an utterly shambolic night for WWE. The crowd had already turned against yet another John Cena/Randy Orton pay-per-view match, and the Rumble match was going to go the same way if Bryan didn't enter at the last.
Bryan didn't enter at the last however, that honour being bestowed upon none other than Rey Mysterio. Poor Rey didn't stand a chance, and the usually beloved luchador quickly became the most hated man in the building. Two minutes later he was eliminated by Seth Rollins, and the cheers that accompanied that elimination were the last heard in the building that night.
Never has a crowd turned on a WWE pay-per-view so vociferously. If WWE thought that sending out a babyface instead of Bryan would cause the crowd to forget their hero somewhat, they were incredibly misguided. Why not then give the spot to a heel, in an attempt to add some heat to another bad guy? Nope, the decision was made to send Rey out last, and that decision makes The Ultimate Underdog a clear standout for the honour of being the worst number 30 entrant in Royal Rumble history.
