50 WTF Moments From WWE WrestleMania 17

9. The Iron Sheik Wins The Gimmick Battle Royal, Sgt. Slaughter Gets His Heat Back

Definitive proof that the WWE will avoid giving one wrestler the definitive rub even in the most ludicrous of situations. Sheik wins the traditional Gimmick Battle Royal, last eliminating Hillbilly Jim, only for a disgruntled Sgt. Slaughter to re-enter the ring and get revenge with the Cobra Clutch. That's a relief. The internet smarks would have exploded if he hadn't gotten his heat back. As an aside, reports at the time suggested that Sheik only won the match because he was the only contestant who was physically unable to take a bump over the top rope!
