Rumble notes:

- Sammartino had the most eliminations with a total of 6- including all 4 members of the Heenan Family: Bockwinkel, Race, Rude, and Baker.

- Sammartino also lasted the longest in the ring by entering at #1 and not being eliminated until shortly after the 16th entry arrived.

- Already on unsteady ground with the rest of the Four Horsemen, Hackenschmidt unintentionally threw his fellow Horsemen Zbyszko over the top rope. Hackenschmidt attempted to come to Zbyszko's aid against the Boogie Woogie Man in the Rumble but accidentally eliminated both Zbyszko and the Boogie Woogie Man at the same time.

- Toward the end of the match, DiBiase was visibly agitated when he got eliminated by Rocca and, upon Rocca's winning of the Rumble by eliminating Gotch via a dropkick, ordered Bundy (who DiBiase introduced as his newest employee on the last episode of the EAWA) into the ring where Bundy ambushed a celebrating Rocca. As DiBiase and Virgil each held one of Rocca's arms to position Rocca up against one of the turnbuckles, Bundy hit Rocca with 5 AVALANCHES! Rocca was the taken away on a stretcher holding his injured ribs.
