5. Wyatt Gives A Strong Performance
Buried amongst the pile of garbage in the Rumble match was a solid performance from Bray Wyatt, who entered the match at #5 and lasted nearly 50 minutes, eliminating six men. While his elimination at the hands of Big Show and Kane was unceremonious, he had a memorable run in the beginning of the Rumble. Wyatt managed to dump five straight men in the early stages of the Rumble, stopping at one point to grab a microphone to deliver a promo between entrants, ala CM Punk in 2010. While he didnt go on to win and his performance in the latter stages of the match was nondescript, Wyatt could milk his run a little going forward. Oh, and Wyatt was the one who eliminated Daniel Bryan, so if he needs a reason to get fans to boo him
