10 WWE Royal Rumble Eliminations That Infuriated Fans

3. Dolph Ziggler (The Big Show & Kane - 2015)

WWE have had a difficult time of things regarding the Royal Rumble over the past few years. Finding a winner fans legitimately want to see emerge victorious has shown itself to be a tall task, and the promotion haven't always managed to appease their core fan base. During the 2015 incarnation, they wanted to line up some big heels for Roman Reigns to mow down. Due to this, fans had to sit through periods of domination from both The Big Show and Kane. Teaming up, the long-serving employees hammered pretty much everyone in their path, and some watching likely feared that WWE would actually have one of them win. By far the worst moment came when they eliminated Dolph Ziggler with minimum fuss. Ziggler went on to have a tough year, and his woes can be traced back to being made to look like a total jobber during the Royal Rumble. At first, he threatened to fight back, but a KO Punch from Big Show settled things. Shortly afterwards, Big Show and Kane also eliminated Bray Wyatt in similar fashion, only further disgruntling the live crowd.
