10 best Royal Rumble performances ever

#8 Chris Jericho - 2003

So underrated

When talking about the best performances in Royal Rumble history, this one is for sure the most underrated. Chris Jericho won a four-man battle royal to choose his own number and chose to enter at number #2, as Shawn Michaels, who Jericho had just begun to feud with, chose to enter at number #1 in hopes of repeating his 1995 milestone.

Thanks to a fake entrance from his buddy Christian, Jericho would sneak attack HBK and bloody him up with a number of chair shots to his head, and would then toss him over before the 3rd entrant came out. From this great angle, Jericho would be the longest survivor lasting just under 39 minutes and would make 6 eliminations along the way. Jericho barely took any time to rest before he was suddenly and surprisingly eliminated by Test following interference from the eliminated Shawn Michaels.
