Sabu wasn't actually eliminated

Sabu might as well have been out even if his leg/foot had not touched the ground but instead touched the now broken table that he went through. How is it that, if he was able to get up after being chockeslamed through the now broken table by Kane, he would be able to get back into the ring without having one of his legs/feet touch the ground? I guess he could have crawled with one of his legs bent up in the air and the other leg on the ground with is hands on the ground to support his weight to either one of the three announce tables (Raw, SmackDown! or ECW), to the barrier that seperates the ring from the fans or to the ring (apron, steel steps, post, or rope(s)), helped himself up and hopping on one leg, hoist himself back into the ring underneath the bottom rope. If he was able to do that, I would have been really suprised, but if one or more of the wrestlers that were in the ring at that time were looking and saw Sabu tring to get back into the ring, one wrestler could just baseball side into Sabu knocking him off and Sabu would be lying on the ground with both of his legs/feet touching the ground and he would be out.
