Two Big Names Set For Royal Rumble

Double shot! We’re in one of the most interesting times of the year as we need to start building up the roster for the Royal Rumble. That means thirty names need to be selected and while only a few have already been announced, those numbers grew in a hurry this week on “Smackdown Live”.

As announced on tonight’s show, both Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura have officially entered the match. Nakamura will be making his first appearance in a Royal Rumble while Orton is the reigning winner and could potentially tie Steve Austin for the most wins in the history of the match with his third victory.

Here’s how Orton looks winning the Rumble.

Opinion: We’re going to be seeing a lot of announcements like this and it’s important to get some of the bigger names announced for the match. While neither are heavy favorites, these are names that are going to make the match feel bigger. Nakamura is a potential dark horse winner and as the defending winner, Orton is a threat as well. You need names like that in the match and this is a good start.

Who do you think will win the Rumble? Which of these two will have a better performance? Let us know in the comments below.
