Backstage News – A Botched WWE Royal Rumble Spot

Source: The Wrestling Observer

As seen during the Royal Rumble match on Sunday night, Titus O’Neil was eliminated in just four seconds by Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose.

O’Neil’s role in this year’s Royal Rumble match was to be eliminated in just one second, tying Santino Marella’s record for the shortest reign in Royal Rumble history.

The blame for the missed spot is said to be shared, as many are calling it a timing issue, with Reigns and Ambrose being off with their double-clothesline and O’Neil being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Being eliminated in four seconds, O’Neil is now tied with Jerry Lawler (1997) and Bushwacker Luke (1991), who were also eliminated in four seconds. In 1995, Sir Mo and Owen Hart were both eliminated in three seconds, and in 1989, The Warlord was eliminated in two seconds.
