3) The Undertaker

The Undertaker announced on the 900th episode of Smackdown Live that he didn’t want Wrestlemania to define him.

While it will be impossible for the Deadman to be known for anything but Wrestlemania, he can live up to his words by competing in this years Royal Rumble match. The Undertaker has a Rumble victory under his belt, winning the 2007 match by last eliminating Shawn Michaels.

With rumors of the Deadman facing John Cena or AJ Styles at Wrestlemania, he instantly becomes a contender to win this years match. This would set up a Title vs Career match against either Styles or Cena, whoever wins the title at the Rumble.

‘Taker doesn’t need to compete in the Rumble, but it would be pretty darn cool if he did. With the possibilities of setting up a Title vs Career match, Undertaker winning becomes a possibility for us!
