Everyone loves the sight of a WWE star of the past making a surprise comeback in the thick of a Royal Rumble.

And this year's iteration of the women's over-the-top-rope spectacle boasted one of the more shocking returnees of recent times in the form of former Women's Champion Melina.

After not throwing down in a WWE contest for over a decade, the comeback queen found herself coming face-to-face with none other than The Boss upon drawing #2 in the all-important bout. So, this could only mean that the pair were set to put on something of an unexpected dream match for a few minutes before the next entrant made their way into the contest, right?

Not quite.

Within seconds of locking horns with Sasha Banks, Melina was unceremoniously tossed out of the match, with her total active Rumble time coming in at just 0:53 seconds. Yikes.

And sure enough, many were quick to blast WWE for what came across as blatant disrespect towards the much-loved veteran. Fellow in-ring legend Gail Kim even took aim at the company on Twitter shortly after Melina's rapid elimination.

In truth, though, this was merely the first in a long line of disappointing Rumble occurrences across both titular showcases.
