30 One-Time-Only WWE Royal Rumble Entrants You Totally Don't Remember

7. Sylvan (2006)

WWE Network

Time In Match: 0:18

One of the first to partake in WWE€'s bizarre quest to rid the world of surnames and have everyone go by their forename, former La Résistance bore Sylvain Grenier was simply Sylvan by 2006. Formerly a French flag-waving anachronism, Sylvan was now a French-speaking, techno dancing narcissist. To the surprise of no one, that failed to get over, though it did at least result in some entertainment from fans watching Hardcore Holly brutalise him on a weekly basis. Sylvan came a cropper in his lone Rumble showing courtesy of the monstrous Bobby Lashley, and a year later he was relegated to the wrestler€'s graveyard known as TNA.
