You may have previously read a news piece I did citing the top 10 wrestlers I felt were likely to take some of the surprise entry spots in the Royal Rumble tonight. If you missed that article you can check it out by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Among the 10 names already mentioned were Christian, Sheamus, Jake “The Snake” Roberts, Chris Jericho, Rob Van Dam, Evan Borne, Dolph Ziggler, The New Age Outlaws, and Daniel Bryan.<\/p>\n

Other names that have been discussed in the rumor mill since I wrote that article include…<\/p>\n

Kevin Nash – Nash checked in to the same hotel as the WWE Superstar are staying last night in Pittburgh. Nash is reportedly in town to host a Rumble part, but with the recent dye job people speculate his return is possible.<\/p>\n

2 Cold Scorpio – With the WWE Network preparing to launch in 4 weeks time, there’s been discussion of bringing in a former ECW superstar as part of the Rumble to help promote the brand for the Network. RVD would be the better choice here, but I’d imagine Scorpio would come at a much cheaper price. WWE would only likely bring RVD back if it was on a short term contract and not a one night thing.<\/p>\n

Jimmy Wang Yang – Friend of Batista, has been at 2 recent WWE house shows and teased a Rumble spot earlier this week.<\/p>\n

El Torito – Discussion of Torito came out after the Smackdown Tapings. During the Tapings there was a Matadores vs. Ryback\/Axel match that ended with Torito humiliating Ryback with a plancha on the floor following the match. There’s rumors of Torito entering the Rumble to lead to a spot with Ryback.<\/p>\n

Mark Henry – EVen though Henry recently worked a shoulder injury courtesy of Brock Lesnar, there’s been talk of having Henry enter the Rumble to add name value to the match. Worked injuries do have a way to heal in record time, so this IS a possibility.<\/p>\n

Jim Duggan – It’s unclear whether he would pass a physical following his surgery, but he’s supposed to be doing a lot better. Duggan has filled the void many times as he lays claim to the fame of winning the very first Rumble back in 1988.<\/p>\n

Hillbilly Jim – Believe it or not, there was actually discussion of bringing the Hillbilly in as part of the Network advertising for Legends House.<\/p>\n

Remember, these are all POTENTIAL surprise entrants based on a variety of discussion and rumors going around. Let’s hope the term “Surprise” is in play this year and someone NOT on this list of some type of relevance shows up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
