10. Chris Jericho Makes Surprise Appearance As Entry Number 2 - Royal Rumble 2013
Dolph Ziggler was in the ring doing a promo as the first man in the 2013 Royal Rumble. He said he didn't care who the second man was. Then the fireworks went off and we heard those famous words: "Break the walls down!" We didn't expect Chris Jericho at the 2013 Royal Rumble, but there he was in an obscenely expensive jacket and one of the loudest ovations of his career. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wf41HYSnoA He was only gone for about six months, yet it felt like it was longer than that. There also weren't any rumors that he was coming back, so when his music hit as the second entrant it shocked everybody in attendance. That's why it was such a great surprise. If you think it's going to happen the reaction may be forced. When you don't know it's genuine. That's why it's one of the best ones ever.
