An often underestimated factor in wrestling is just how much adrenaline figures into pushing stars toward performing past their breaking points. “I’m coming back from a torn tricep. I hadn’t been in a ring in seven months. I’m coming back. They want me to go from one and win the Royal Rumble, which means 60 minutes in the ring. So that means I’m in there to take everybody’s moves,” he said.

This was especially true as the Hall of Famer took on a surprise opponent nearly a hundred pounds heavier than him during the Rumble.
