Kane now tied for All-Time Eliminations?

[Quinn30Colo]

Kane entered tonight's Rumble trailing Shawn Michaels by 1 for All-Time eliminations at the Royal Rumble. As we all saw Kane came back after being eliminated early in the match to eliminate Punk right at the end.

Do you think this now ties Kane and Michaels for all time eliminations at the rumble?

I don't think it should count since Kane was already eliminated so he wasn't a valid contestant. So statistically speaking, on paper it will look like CM Punk just fell over the top rope to eliminate himself.

I don't count it. All of Michael's eliminations came while he was a legal participant in the match. Then again, Kane has a lot more solo eliminations than Michaels. Maybe he should have been considered the record holder in the first place.

Looks like WWE is recognizing Kane's elimination and tied as an all-time record holder.

I like Reigns but what about some of his eliminations being highly questionable?

As far as that goes. The JBL elimination and the midget are kind of goofy, but it felt like WWE wanted that record to fall of single event eliminations.

i dont care either way but feel Kane deserved the recognition anyway he should've had it last year, plus the fact hes been in 15 straight Rumbles far more then anyone in history. and now Reigns just has to repeat his performance twice more and he will have that elimination record LOL
