Predicting all 30 entrants for the Men's Royal RumbleĀ

When it comes to pure talent on their roster, the WWE has an embarrassment of riches right now.

SmackDown, Raw, and NXT are home to some of the greatest wrestlers to have ever laced up a pair of boots, and while the product may be struggling from a creative perspective, there is no denying that is still continuing to deliver from an in-ring point of view.

The biggest match on the WWE calendar, the Royal Rumble, is just a matter of weeks away, and excitement for the event is already starting to build.

With such a wealth of talent at their disposal, it is becoming increasingly difficult to determine who deserves a place in the Rumble match, and who should be left out.

With that in mind, let's take a rather optimistic shot at predicting all 30 entrants for the 2019 Royal Rumble match.

Note: R-Truth, who has already confirmed his place in this match, has been left off this list, for the simple reason being that I believe he will accidentally enter the women's match, instead of the men's.

At the time of writing, Seth Rollins is widely considered by many to be the favorite to win the Rumble, and the former Intercontinental Champion certainly stands a very strong chance.

Given that he is locked in a feud with Dean Ambrose at the moment, there is also a very real chance we could see him pulling double duty at the event, further playing into his ever-growing reputation as the company's go-to iron-man performer.

Ambrose's feud with Seth Rollins has not exactly gone the way most fans would have wanted, but it seems highly likely that the WWE will want the two men to come face to face at some point during the Rumble.

There is every chance Ambrose will once again reach the final two, just as he did a few years ago when he lost to Triple H in 2015.


EC3

We found out on this week's Raw that EC3 is set to make his debut on the main roster in the coming weeks, and one would presume that it will take place before the Royal Rumble.

There is, of course, the option of having the top one percenter make his main roster debut in the Rumble match itself, but that seems unlikely.
