#5. Corey Graves could return in the Royal Rumble

Corey Graves has been cleared to wrestle again after seven years away from the ring, per @SeanRossSapp https://t.co/d0ciqR3Kx4

Corey Graves has reportedly just been cleared to wrestle. This revelation before Rumble could be interesting as WWE may want to include him in the match to surprise the fans.

While the majority knows Graves as a commentator, but he also competed in NXT, even winning the tag team championships with Neville. His last match was a six-man tag team match against The Usos and Sami Zayn, almost seven years ago.

Corey Graves's future could be exciting, as even after the Rumble, WWE could use him in feuds in the main roster. He might have a dream match against current co-commentator and rival, Byron Saxton who also competed in NXT.
