2017 Royal Rumble Match
Can you honestly think of a more stacked Rumble than this year’s match? Of the participants named so far there 10 former world champions with a stunning 37 WWE world championships between them. The match will also be featuring studs like Bray Wyatt, the 2016 Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner Baron Corbin, the massive Braun Strowman, Cesaro, Sami Zayn and Rusev. Talk about loaded.
There are so many different possible winners and future scenarios that it’s mind boggling. And that’s only part of the field. There’s still 8 spots unaccounted for? And with the Royal Rumble always being full of surprise entrances, who might we see return to partake in the match? Kurt Angle canceled his independent bookings for Saturday night. Could we see The Olympic Hero return? Imagine the crowd reaction to his music? And what about Finn Balor? If his injury time table serves him right he should be ready to go by Sunday. Will the former Universal champion return to attempt to reclaim the belt he never lost?
