20 Best WWE Royal Rumble Eliminations Ever

8. Wrong Result, Good Elimination

When a Rumble gets down to its final two participants, there's no telling how long it'll last. Sometimes the match is over within seconds; sometimes we're treated to an extended brawl, with multiple false-finishes. There's nothing with the same unique sense of drama in all of wrestling. 2012 was maybe the best example of the latter, as Sheamus and Chris Jericho engaged in a tremendous back-and-forth battle. Unfortunately, WWE's choice of winner must be considered a bad one. Y2J was in the midst of an intriguing heel return, in which he shunned the fans. It was clearly going somewhere...except it wasn't. Sheamus won - and the elimination was very pretty, in fairness - Jericho's push fizzled out, and the Celtic Warrior went on to beat Daniel Bryan in 18 seconds at WrestleMania.
