Faarooq (4)

Faarooq did not have much luck in the five Rumbles he entered. As a matter of fact, he was only able to exceed one minute once, when he went just over 10 minutes en route to the Final Four in 1998.

His other four performances were nowhere near as remarkable, lasting 41 seconds in 1997, 18 seconds in 2000, 58 seconds in 2001, and 36 seconds in 2002. To his credit, he was able to eliminate four people in total across these five Rumbles, but three of those came in his "iron man" performance in 1998 and the other one was...well, Latin Lover in 1997. So yeah, nothing to write home about.

Anyway, Faarooq lasted a grand total of 12 minutes, 36 seconds in total, averaging about 2-and-a-half minutes per match. Not a proud statistic for the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
