Then: Santino Marella holds the record for shortest stay in a Rumble match ever (one second in 2009), but he lasted over 12 minutes in the 2011 version. He didn't get to eliminate anyone, however, and fell victim to eventual winner Alberto Del Rio.

Thanks for coming, Santino.

Now: Marella showed up in drag as his "sister" Santina during the women's Rumble last year. Hopefully, WWE don't try to repeat the trick in 2021. Outside WWE, he's passionate about judo - Santino works as a commentator at events and trains others at his Battle Arts Academy.
