Let’s start off with a well-known one; Santino Marella holds the record for shortest survival time in any Royal Rumble, having been eliminated in just over a second.
Xavier Woods has defended both the WWE and TNA Tag Team Championships at least once each despite not actually winning the titles himself.
R-Truth has been in 3 Elimination Chamber matches but has been eliminated first every time. This also means that he has never successfully eliminated anybody.
Both Bastion Booger and Spike Dudley have a total survival time of 0 seconds in the Royal Rumble. Neither man made it to the ring during their only appearance.
Yokozuna won a WWE Championship match but lost the title later that night at two consecutive WrestleManias.
William Regal holds the record for fastest ever title loss. The referee started counting Spike Dudley’s pin attempt before the match officially started. As a result, Dudley won the European Championship in 1 second.
ODB has been released from TNA contracts more often than anyone else.
Say what you will about Raven’s time in WWE, but he is still the most decorated champion ever in the company. He may have only ever held the WWE Hardcore
Championship, but his 27 title reigns outweigh any other individual’s combined totals.
Christian is the only person to have won a major title in WWE by disqualification.
Jason Albert (Albert / A-Train / Tensai) has been in 6 Royal Rumbles, but never eliminated a single opponent.
Eric Young has had 3 different TNA titles simply taken off him; the X-Division, Tag Team and Knockout’s Tag Team championships.
Planet Stasiak (Shawn Stasiak) won the WWE Hardcore Championship 15 times, but his total time as champion lasted less than an hour.
The 'Freebird Rule' allows more than 2 people to defend a Tag Team Championship (or 2 people to defend a singles championship). Possibly the worst violation of the rule saw all 5 members of the Spirit Squad (which included Dolph Ziggler) hold the World Tag Team Championship together.
Randy Orton has had more Wellness Policy violations than any other WWE employee, but his official total has been reduced down to "1".
Triple H has more losses at WrestleMania than anyone else, having been beaten 10 times. His losses to The Undertaker makes him the only person to have lost to same person 3 times.
Nobody has successfully cashed in a ‘Feast Or Fired’ contract to win the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.
A special extra-large WWF Heavyweight Championship belt was made for Andre the Giant in case he ever won the title. Even though he did, he would never get to wear the custom-made belt.
Shawn Michaels has forfeited 8 championships in the WWE.
Bam Bam Bigelow, Dusty Rhodes, George Steele, Jake Roberts, Jim Duggan, Jimmy Snuka, Junkyard Dog, Paul Orndorff, George Steele, Junkyard Dog and Vader have all never won a championship in the WWE.
Mick Foley was eliminated from the 1998 Royal Rumble three times. He competed as Cactus Jack, Mankind and Dude Love in the match.
Of all the 5 men who have portrayed ‘Suicide’ in TNA, Kiyoshi is the only one that has never held the TNA X-Division Championship as the character.
James Storm, Jeff Hardy, Mr. Anderson and Sting all won the TNA World Heavyweight Championship and lost it within 30 days during 2011 alone.
Everybody who held the World Heavyweight Championship between December 2005 and June 2007 suffered a side-lining injury during their reign as champion.
Diamond Dallas Page is the only person to have entered the Royal Rumble at the “cursed†#14 spot more than once. A few months after his first Rumble, he suffered a concussion and a broken neck which both nearly ended his career during the same match. He was rushed to hospital a week after his second Rumble after suffering heart problems caused by pushing himself too hard in the match.
Since 1993, Lex Luger and Roman Reigns have been the only Rumble winners who have not held a major championship in WWE. However, Reigns will likely win it in the future.
R-Truth is just one title away from being the final possible Grand Slam champion. His reigns as WWE Tag Team, United States and Hardcore Champion all count, but he still needs a major title.
Jeff Hardy and Goldust have lost all 5 of their respective WrestleMania matches.
Bad News Brown eliminated himself during both of his Survivor Series matches.
Four of the Five ‘Most Abysmal Matches of 1999’, determined by Power Slam magazine, were PPV matches featuring Big Boss Man.
Marty Jannetty has been ‘Future Endeavoured’ by WWE a total of 9 times.
All but one of Mr. McMahon’s matches involving the ECW Heavyweight Championship were handicap matches, with McMahon teaming with Shane McMahon and Umaga.
Triple H has lost a major title twice in 6-man tag matches. Shane McMahon was on his team both times.
Mr. Anderson was the final opponent of both Eddy Guerrero and Eddy ‘Umaga’ Fatu.
