WWE Royal Rumble 2017: Predicting the Entrant Order
By Carl Gac
1. Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn beat Seth Rollins on Raw this past Monday to get himself into the match. Having spent the last few months battling the monster Braun Strowman and becoming WWE’s ultimate underdog, Sami can be a standout performer in the match. Expect him to go a long way in the match and upset a couple of the bigger names involved.
2. Cesaro
Cesaro is one of the most underrated men on the WWE roster. He’s never had a big run with a main singles title but he is more than capable of being a big part of the early going in this years Rumble match. Claudio Castagnoli (Cesaro) and El Generico (Zayn) had some amazing matches on the indy’s, they could get the Rumble of to a great start.
3. Jack Gallagher
One of the men who has become a big star off the back of the CWC and 205 Live, Gallagher can come in to the Rumble and get the chance to battle men outside of the Cruiserweight division. If nothing else but for the chance to see him tie up several men in his patented knot in the middle of the ring simultaneously.
4. Sheamus
A man who is one of the main stays of the last decade or so, he can team with his partner Cesaro to work over the other men in the match. As a strong and powerful member of the WWE roster, he can be a big elimination for some of the men lower down the totem pole.
5. Big Cass
Having declared himself in the Royal Rumble on Raw, as well as being a 7-foot tall giant, Big Cass can show some early dominance in the match and be a good grounding for the smaller men around him. This may not be the year when Cass goes a long way in the match, but can potentially be used to set up a new feud for him and Enzo Amore.
