1. Bray Wyatt
‘The Eater of Worlds’ has been curiously absent from WWE ever since he was unable to recapture the Raw Tag Team Championships with Matt Hardy. We’ve seen that he’s still healthy, he had a No Disqualification match with Baron Corbin at Starrcade after all, yet he’s still been away from TV.
It seems fairly clear Bray Wyatt can return to WWE any time now, so why not have him return on a massive stage at The Royal Rumble?
Recently, Wyatt has been active on Twitter again, posting his usual cryptic messages that may or may not have something to do with a change in gimmick upon his eventual WWE return. The Royal Rumble match, with its frequent pauses for showboating and the creation of big-time moments, could be the perfect stage for Wyatt to debut a new twist in his gimmick.
The potential for a new gimmick for a very popular WWE superstar, combined with the fact that Wyatt is also a former WWE champion in his own right, makes him a perfect candidate for returning at The Royal Rumble.
He has the credentials to appear like a true threat to win the match, an enormous amount of intrigue surrounding his character, and a need to set up a new rivalry upon his return. In other words, Bray Wyatt can, and should return at The Royal Rumble.
When it’s all said and done though, any of these 3 competitors would make for amazing and exciting surprise returns in the 2019 Royal Rumble!
