WWE Royal Rumble: Watch The Rock's win at MSG in the year 2000
Rock eliminated Big Show to win after X-Pac threatened upset
Last Updated: 23/01/17 8:43am
The Rock secured one of his most notable WWE victories inside Madison Square Garden in the year 2000, when he dumped Big Show over the top rope to win the Royal Rumble.
For a while, however, it seemed as if third-placed X-Pac would pull off a shock triumph, when he knocked Kane out of the ring courtesy of a spinning heel kick and then levelled Show with a bronco buster.
Show, though, banished X-Pac with a gorilla press to leave the match down to him and The People's Champion - Rock hit a People's Elbow and Show nailed a chokeslam, before the former sent his rival tumbling to the floor.
