Oh yeah, that guy. You may be questioning how Tyrion climbed this high in the rankings but then again, doesn't that precisely mirror his journey through Westeros so far in the show? How has he survived? The answer is quite simple: Tyrion can always talk his way out of danger and worm his way to freedom regardless of the dire circumstances. Method Of Elimination: There's really no other way Tyrion could depart the rumble other than being simply tossed out of the ring, even then he'd probably be able to talk some fighters out of it. What he lacks in size, he makes up for tenfold in cunning. Where there's a will, there's a way.
3. Barristan 'The Bold' Selmy
I bet you didn't see that coming? Let's all just admit that Barristan is the greatest swordsman in Westeros. If you're taking his age out of the picture, Barristan the Bold could carve through legions of heartless men without so much as chipping his blade. We saw it in his fight with the Harpy, but unfortunately, that's where we have to dip back into what is feasible. Method Of Elimination: Barristan took down double figures of the vicious street-warriors, adding a lot of weight to his reputation, but unlike the days of old, his tank has to run out at some point. Stamina would get the better of the elder statesman, but he'd die a heroic death.
2. Jon 'Spoiler' Snow
Jon Snow. He's a leader among men. From the runt of Winterfell to the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. Not only that, but he's probably got some Targaryen blood flowing through the veins if rumours are to be believed. Jon is more than just a Stark-reject. He could be the next man to perch himself on the Iron Throne itself, if you skim over the fact that his body is currently motionless, stone-cold dead in the snow. Method Of Elimination: Providing Jon does return to the show (for the fictional Rumble, of course) he's going to be hell-bent on revenge. He'll change. He could easily turn into a far more powerful warrior than he was before the horrific little Olly creature ended him at Castle Black. But let's all just agree that if a child can kill him, then he won't be any match for greatest threat in the history of Westeros. Here's why...
