Bob Backlund – 1:01:10 (1993)
Long before he was working to “Make Darren Young Great Again,” Bob Backlund was, of course, a top champion in the WWF. Perhaps as impressive as his championship wins, though, was his 1993 Royal Rumble effort.
Coming out as one of the first two men with Ric Flair, Backlund went over an our and lasted until the final three men were in the ring – Backlund, Randy Savage and eventual winner Yokozuna. Backlund was eliminated by Yokozuna to gain the distinction of having the longest run in a Rumble match without winning.
