#3 Eddie Guerrero steals Ric Flair's Royal Rumble spot
A short while before the 2005 Royal Rumble match kicked off, Eddie Guerrero and Ric Flair picked their entry numbers around the same time, under the supervision of RAW and SmackDown GMs Eric Bischoff and Teddy Long. Eddie Guerrero found out that he had picked No. 1, while Ric Flair got No. 30. Guerrero gave Flair a hug and swapped the numbers sneakily. Flair quickly realized that he had been duped by Guerrero, and began throwing a tantrum.
Eddie Guerrero eventually entered in at No. 1 during the Royal Rumble match
Soon after, Eddie Guerrero and Ric Flair's numbers were swapped back, which led to Guerrero entering the Royal Rumble match at the No. 1 spot. Guerrero lasted almost 30 minutes in the Royal Rumble and eliminated the likes of The Hurricane, Hardcore Holly, and Booker T. He was eventually eliminated by Edge. As for Flair, he came in at No. 30 and ended up eliminating Jonathan Coachman and Chris Benoit. Flair was later eliminated by Edge, with Batista winning the Royal Rumble in the end. Batista would go on to turn on Flair and Triple H on the road to WrestleMania 21 and win the World title in the main event of the show.
