#3 Beth Phoenix eliminates The Great Khali in the 2010 Royal Rumble match
The 2010 Royal Rumble match kicked off with Dolph Ziggler and Evan Bourne, but it was entrant No. 3 CM Punk, who impressed fans with his work in the match. Punk kept throwing every competitor out in quick succession, and it looked like he would somehow manage to win it all. When Beth Phoenix came in a No. 6, she set her sights on The Great Khali, who ordered her to leave the ring immediately. Phoenix planted a kiss on Khali, which threw him off-guard enough for her to eliminate him.

Moments after, Phoenix targeted CM Punk and began brawling with him. Fans cheered in unison, as Phoenix unleashed on Punk and almost threw him out of the ring. Unfortunately, Punk got out of her clutch and proceeded to hit her with a devastating GTS. Following the move, Beth Phoenix fell down on the ring, in an unconscious state. All Punk needed to do now was to pick her up and throw her out of the ring, and that's exactly what he did. Phoenix was one of five Superstars Punk threw out of the Royal Rumble match that night before he was eliminated from the match by Triple H.
