Speaking of NXT wrestlers getting notable spots in the Royal Rumble, look no further than Tye Dillinger.

His WWE career since this debut has been a disappointment to say the least, but the company at least paid off The Perfect 10’s popularity by having him debut at #10 in the 2017 Rumble, giving fans the opportunity to explode and chant “10!” along with Tye.

Even if his WWE career were to end tomorrow, he’d always have one of the most memorable WWE debuts in recent memory.
