2012 – Santa’s Near-Miss
In 2012, Santa Claus opened Monday Night Raw, spreading holiday cheer until Alberto Del Rio hit Santa with his car. Medical drama ensued, but Santa returned to the ring later, taking revenge on Del Rio and Ricardo.

This entire moment is hysterical, from the Christmas tree falling on Santa’s face to Santa getting carried away on a stretcher.

Then to add to the insanity of all of this the locker room reacts to Del Rio hitting Santa. Great shot of Santa’s feet on the table in the Trainer’s Room.

And then Santa comes back to help Cena win!

That’s some holiday magic 🎅🏻🎄 Merry Christmas everyone!
