Ranking The Worst Performer In Every WWE Royal Rumble Match

30. 1998 - Tom Brandi

The Hurricane Big E Bobby Lashley

Lasted 0:12.

A perennial goober who had previously been dubbed Salvatore Sincere (Christ), Tom Brandi was one of only a handful of Attitude Era stars - that term being used in the loosest sense - utilised to fill out the 30-man field. For context, he shared the ring with eventual WWE Hall of Famers Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie, and acted as the predecessor for the Rock to enter the ring.

Brandi was out of depth in the match, which perhaps explains why he went just 12 seconds before Jack and Charlie put him out of his misery, eating him up and spitting him back out to resume their plunder. This was his biggest claim to fame for Brandi who, despite having a solid look, wasn't the right fit for the era. He was gone by April, his 12 seconds in the Royal Rumble making him a constant fixture on drab Royal Rumble performances lists.
