4. Big Cass Entering at No. 1 and Enzo Amore at No. 27

Enzo Amore and Big Cass would make their Royal Rumble debut this year. The duo did not do well in their first outing. Cass would enter the fray from the number one spot. While other new era big men like Strowman and Baron Corbin got their fair share of dominance in the ring, Cass was nowhere near that level. However, one could not blamseven-footerfooter for that.

Cass’s entrance was placed too close to Strowman’s and the former was eliminated by the latter. Enzo on the other hand, would enter at number 27. This would come at a time when Lesnar was stacking bodies in the ring. Not to mention, Amore would become a part of that stack almost as soon as he hit the ring. Creative got their placement extremely wrong with these two.

Had Enzo entered at number 1 and got eliminated by Strowman, it would have been okay. Moreover, Big Cass entering at number 27 would have made the fans believe he could be in line to win the whole thing. Above all, a run-in with Lesnar would have given him quite the rub. Instead, creative would mess up the order in which they presented the realest guys in the room.
