Finn Balor
We can all rejoice in the event of the Balor Club officially coming to light and being realized. With that being said, Balor will have a great chance at winning the Rumble this year especially with the aid of Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson. Fans are getting what they want in the Balor Club and Balor’s win would be a long time coming.
Balor has never received a rematch for the Universal Championship, in which he was injured and had to vacate it. The rematch clause could work in his favor, whether he wins the Rumble or there is a SmackDown winner. With Gallows and Anderson, Balor would have an advantage against Lesnar or even Strowman. The Balor Club just recently defeated Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Jason Jordan on last week’s Raw. They already have been gaining momentum in terms of producing wins.

One could hope that WWE will put their faith in Balor once again like they did in the summer of 2016. It was apparent at that time that the company had big plans for him prior to his unfortunate injury. Balor is a draw and with the Good Brothers alongside him, it’s money for the company to move forward with the angle. In addition, Balor could perhaps be this year’s workhorse in the Rumble, gaining even more momentum.
