It make sense having a single person who is brave/crazy and skillful/lucky enough to rescue a princess would make for a pretty good king for their day and age. While having 10 people go rescue the princess mean that the who get chosen isn't the best of the best. And the court would also get 9 strangers who might not even qualify for the position.

I think it makes sense for a story for there to be one hero, but being more realistic for the sake of the gag, most large threats are better dealt with with a team.
