WWE Royal Rumble 2018: Predicting 10 Biggest Spots

10. Curt Hawkins As Santino

Every Royal Rumble needs a Santino Marella, a Warlord, a Bushwhacker Luke: someone who marches down to the ring, but barely has time to throw a punch before getting chucked over the top rope. Enzo Amore tasted ritual embarrassment last year, lasting just 18 seconds before Brock Lesnar took his head off with a particularly starchy clothesline. Who will it be in 2018? There are a few options, but one name stands out.

Curt Hawkins' epic losing streak surpassed 0-150 at the turn of the year. He's the ultimate jobber, and given that general incompetence has been his main character trait since returning to the company in 2016, it makes sense for WWE to put him in that spot.

Curt's lowly roster status does mean there's a strong chance he could be excluded from the Rumble entirely. In this case, Aiden English would be the best man for the job, as his participation has already been confirmed. Still, either man would do well to outdo the 1.9 seconds that Santino lasted in 2009. Surely it's got to be worth a try though...
