We’re just over a week away from the Royal Rumble, which is WWE’s second biggest show of the year. Each year, we see a few surprise returns in the Rumble match, some we know about ahead of time, and some come out of nowhere. This year will be no different, as there are a ton of rumors surrounding who could show up as a surprise on January 29.

WWE typically only has three or four surprises each year, so not everyone who is rumored to be showing up at the event will actually be there. But, there are some pretty big names that are being rumored for WWE’s annual 30-man match, so the fans will be satisfied if only one or two of the rumored surprises shows up at the Alamodome.

This list will take a look at all the rumored surprise entrants, and their chances of actually showing up in San Antonio next Sunday night. So, let’s get started!
