The Dillinger elimination would surprisingly be Braun's last act after an impressive Rumble showing.

Stopping to briefly lick his wounds, Strowman took a missile dropkick from Dean Ambrose, a running shoulderblock from Baron Corbin, and a Helluva Kick from Sami Zayn.

The barrage of offence dazed the giant long enough for Corbin to score with a massive clothesline and finally eliminate 'The New Face of Destruction' to a thunderous response from the Alamodome.
