12. Maven Eliminates The Undertaker (2002)
When WWE partnered with MTV to create its reality television program
Tough Enough, the company was entering uncharted territory. The competitions first male winner, Maven, would last about four years with WWE, most of it as a mid-card talent or a jobber. But one of his earliest moments in WWE would be one of his most memorable. In the early stages of the 2002 Rumble, the Undertaker was on a roll. (At this stage, this was the biker version of the Undertaker.) He would clear the ring of the Hardy Boys (who were feuding with Taker at the time), only for the rookie Maven be the next entrant. What happened next would send Jim Ross into hysterics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYZoGACeqt4 Maven eliminated a distracted Undertaker with a dropkick in one of the most shocking eliminations ever. Unfortunately for Maven, the Deadman didnt take it too well and pummeled him right out of the match. But for one brief moment, Maven had an entire arena in a frenzy.
