WWE: 10 Most Memorable Moments In Royal Rumble History

6. Bret Hart & Lex Luger Both Win The Royal Rumble (1994)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soJhHsBhI6I The 1994 Rumble featured one of the most shocking Rumble moments up to that point, as the two final entrants, Lex Luger and Bret Hart, both went tumbling over the top rope at the same time, to the confusion of just about everyone watching. Was it legit or not? The referees then scrambled to argue about who won, and with some instant replay consideration (despite there seemingly not being a clear camera angle of whose feet touched the floor first), it was decided that both of their feet hit the floor at the same time, and therefore they were joint winners of the Rumble. This led to a complex situation at WrestleMania X, where Bret and Luger flipped a coin to decide who would face Yokozuna first (rather than just doing a Triple Threat match, for some reason). Luger went first and ended up winning by disqualification, but Bret, who had already taken a beating from his brother Owen in the opening match, managed to beat Yoko to win the WWF Title in the main event.
