Just a fun little thing I was thinking of before. Who would you pick to eliminate these wrestlers (who already have scheduled matches) if they were in the Royal Rumble match and why? Here is a list of wrestlers booked in non-Rumble matches for the RR pay-per-view (and who I think should eliminate them and why):
Brock Lesnar - Should be eliminated by Roman Reigns. Because Roman needs to look strong.
Braun Strowman - Should be eliminated by The Bludgeon Brothers (because of their Wyatt Family past)
Kane - Should be eliminated by Randy Orton, who has already screwed over Kane in the past (during the Orton-Wyatt feud Randy used Kane). Kane should be on Smackdown seeking revenge anyway, not going after Braun.
AJ Styles - Finn Balor. Because Bullet Club.
Sami Zayn - Baron Corbin. Because of their brief feud plus I feel Corbin needs to eliminate some main eventers to be reestablished (where is Corbin anyway?).
Kevin Owens - Finn Balor. Because these two former Universal Champions are going to face-off some time in the future. Might as well establish something for the eventual video package.
Seth Rollins - Randy Orton. Another history thing (The Authority).
Jason Jordan - Hear me out: Kurt Angle. Surprise entrant in the match, they work together for most of the match until Kurt eliminates him near the end, teaching his "son" a valuable lesson.
Cesaro - Heath Slater/Rhyno. I just want to see Beauty & The Man Beast in a proper feud with someone.
Sheamus - See above for the same reasons.
The Usos - Corbin for similar reasons as before. Imagine Corbin giving a double clothesline to eliminate both brothers at the same time.
Chad Gable - Any member of The New Day. I want to see a Gable/New Day feud.
Shelton Benjamin - Breezango. I would like Breeze and 'Dango to be in that feud too.
Enzo - A returning Big Cass. Or a returning Neville. Or some face character that will get a pop for eliminating Enzo.
Cedric Alexander - Lol nobody cares about him. Someone who needs to look strong should eliminate him - Bludgeon Brothers, Corbin, or Roman Reigns.
Well that was fun to write up. Interested to hear your choices.
