Hercules
The Barbarian always seemed to be a thorn in Hercules' side. While they never faced one another in a singles match in the World Wrestling Federation that I know of, the future Seone was a bad luck charm for the former Mid-South star in the Royal Rumble match.
Hercules compteted in four Royal Rumble matches. In one Rumble, The Barbarian eliminated Hercules. In two other Rumbles, Hercules was eliminated seconds after he eliminated the Barbarian. In the 1991 edition, The Barbarian represented the Heenan Family in a terrific match with The Big Bossman. Later in the evening, Hercules enjoyed a break from The Barbarian by lasting over 37 minutes in the Rumble match, an impressive feat by any standard.
