The finish of the 1995 Royal Rumble involved Shawn Michaels and The British Bulldog apparently hitting the floor at the same time. Michaels and Bulldog entered first and second, and were the last two remaining combatants. At the end, Bulldog threw Michaels over the top rope and while celebrating, didn't note that Michaels only had one foot touch the floor, and was able to skin the cat back into the ring. Once returned, Michaels threw Bulldog over the top rope to win. Imagine the 2016 Royal Rumble starts off with Rollins at #1 and Ambrose at #2. The pair last the entire match, and at the end, they eliminate each other, and instead of the 1995 finish, hit the floor at the same time. Of course, this leads to a match between the two at Fastlane, which would decide who'd go to Wrestlemania to wrestle John Cena. Whether Ambrose or Rollins wins that match, it doesn't make a difference, as the true winner would be the fans.
