7 WWE Superstars who deserve to win the Royal Rumble....but won't
The Royal Rumble is one of the top pay-per-views of the year. For decades now, The Rumble has been regarded as one of the mighty "Big Four" pay-per-view events each year. The road to Wrestlemania begins with the Royal Rumble as the winner of the main event Rumble match punches their ticket to main event Wrestlemania. But what makes this year's event even more special, is the fact that the ladies of WWE get in on the action with their own Royal Rumble match as well.
With there being so much uncertainty and unpredictability at hand, it is hard to pick a winner that makes sense. With that said, the field is indeed wide open. Even with the match's outcome being as sure as a coin-flip, there are some guys on the roster who deserve a win. That's the purpose of this article, to give you my 7 potential winners that probably won't win the match. Here's our 7 WWE Superstars who deserve to win the 2018 Royal Rumble...but probably won't.
#7 Drew McIntyre
Drew McIntyre used his time away from the WWE to hone his skills in order to get to a level which would one day gain the attention of WWE officials for a prospective return to the company. Instead of tucking his tail and running from his flaws, Drew faced his issues head-on, took advantage of this unique opportunity and reinvented himself and ran with his new found path to superstardom.
It didn't take long for WWE officials to take notice of exactly what they let slip away. Drew had excelled everywhere he landed until he was finally called home.
Drew now looks better than he has ever looked and is performing at an elite level that fans are not used to seeing out of the Scottish Superstar. It's now only a matter of time until we see Drew back on the main roster, but this time we will probably see him in a better booking situation than the 3MB run we were used to seeing.
If WWE's creative powers-that-be are serious about Drew McIntyre's future, a Rumble win would be a great start to fulfilling the role as the "Chosen One."
