#5 Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler
Minutes after The Scottish Psychopath had shocked the WWE Universe by eliminating Brock Lesnar from the Rumble, Dolph Ziggler came in at #19 and immediately got in McIntyre's face. This gave AJ Styles enough time to hit McIntyre on the knee from behind. Eventually, Ziggler was eliminated by Roman Reigns, while McIntyre went on to win the whole thing.
When McIntyre made his way back to WWE in 2017, he spent a considerable amount of time in NXT, before making his way to the main roster and aligning with Ziggler. McIntyre attacked Titus Worldwide (Titus O'Neil and Apollo Crews) on his debut and the duo began wreaking havoc on Monday Night RAW for the next several weeks, putting down the likes of Rhyno, Finn Balor, and Braun Strowman. The December 3 episode of RAW saw McIntyre turning on Ziggler, revealing that he was only using him to make his way to the top.
