5. Jack Gallagher

Jack Gallagher became the one and only cruiserweight to enter the Royal Rumble match. While involved, he had a few comedy spots like using his umbrella to hit Chris Jericho between the legs. He even opened up the object on Y2J to provide a laugh.

After that, Mark Henry disposed of the Gentlemen and ended his night. He gets a good rub for being part of the Royal Rumble and is still one of the cruiserweight division’s top stars.

Grade: C+

6. Mark Henry

One of the eight open spots would go to Mark Henry, who received plenty of fan support from his home state fans in Texas. He had a standoff with Braun Strowman early on and got the fans going with the “Hook’em Horns” hand gesture. After a brief brawl with the former Wyatt Family member, Henry would be eliminated, much to the dismay of the fans.

This could have been Henry’s final Royal Rumble. If so, he went in front of his home state fans and put up a fight for a time.

Grade: C
