John Cena, Finn Bálor, Randy Orton, Shinsuke Nakamura, The Miz, Elias, Baron Corbin, “Woken” Matt Hardy, Bray Wyatt, Aiden English, Rusev, Titus O’Neil, Apollo Crews, Tye Dillinger, Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods.
Let’s predict the remaining 13 spots in the Rumble.
- I think that we can guarantee that Roman Reigns will be involved.
- U.S Champion Bobby Roode hasn’t officially declared but we have to assume that he will be in this match. The only way he isn’t is if WWE announces that he will be defending his title at the event.
- Have to think that Jinder Mahal will be involved after the year that he has had.
- I think that regardless of the outcome of the RAW Tag Team Title match, I think that we will see both Jason Jordan and Seth Rollins in the Rumble.
- With the recent forming of the Balor Club, I think that we are going to see Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows participate.
- Mojo Rawley will be involved I would have to assume.

With those 8 names, that brings us to 25 names. We need 5 more and I think that the remaining spots will be surprises. Here are my guesses on the 5 surprise entrants:
- A popular theory from fans is that Dolph Ziggler will return in the Rumble match. I am going to agree.
- I am also thinking that the Undertaker will be returning and entering the match. After Cena is alone in the ring, we will hear the famous ‘Gong’, teasing a Wrestlemania match.
- I am going with Neville as a surprise entrant. I think that the crowd reaction would be great for his return.
- I also think that we will get a Superstar from NXT in the match. I am going to go with Aleister Black as a way to showcase him to the main audience. His entrance is very memorable and based on his skills he should leave a nice impression.
- Lastly, I think that we will see a nostalgia pop for a returning legend. I am going with Rob Van Dam since it is in Philadelphia. (Edit: Forgot that RVD is medically disqualified. I am going to go with Tazz instead)
