#4 Shortest time spent in a Royal Rumble Match (0:01 - Santino Marella)

This is a Royal Rumble record that WWE has seemingly attempted to break over the years, but Santino Marella's 1.9-second stint in 2009 remains the quickest elimination in Rumble history. The "Italian" Superstar entered at number 28 and was immediately tossed out of the match by Kane, much to everybody's amusement.

Santino repeatedly claimed that he "wasn't ready" but to no avail. Unfortunately for him, no other Superstar was ready to be dumped out from the Royal Rumble in 1.9 seconds. WWE did try to give the record to Titus O'Neil, who had another unplanned Royal Rumble moment in 2015.

O'Neil was supposed to be instantly eliminated from the match by Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose, but he couldn't get over the top rope in time. He lasted four seconds. That is how long Liv Morgan lasted in 2019, the shortest time spent in a Women's Royal Rumble Match. A record that could realistically be broken as soon as this year.

Another recent instant Rumble stint belonged to Sheamus, who lasted two seconds in the 2018 match before getting eliminated by Heath Slater. However, this shows how difficult it is to get eliminated from the Royal Rumble as quickly as possible. Santino Marella truly did well at Royal Rumble 2009. He created a historic moment.
