WWE Greatest Royal Rumble: 10 Most Likely Winners

Something old or something new?

50 men will enter the Greatest Royal Rumble this Friday, but only one will be able to lift the (rather gorgeous) trophy WWE have on offer. The question is: who? Or, more pressingly, why should they be the one to celebrate as fireworks light up the King Abdullah International Stadium?

WWE aren't touting a title shot or anything beyond the trophy, and that perhaps opens the field up a bit. The company may well give fans in Saudi Arabia a house show-style happy finish by booking a top star to win, or they might be tempted to celebrate their first major appearance in the Kingdom by pushing a totally new native in front of his fellow countrymen.

Despite there being just a few days to go, WWE haven't actually announced every entrant either. This suggests a few surprises, probably in the form of one-off cameos, are incoming.

They don't need to reveal everyone involved for some names to seem more likely than others though. This is the chance to spotlight a veteran to new fans or crown a stunning comeback in the biggest way possible...
