John Cena in 2008. Edge in 2010. Booker T and Kevin Nash in 2011. Bubba Ray Dudley in 2014. AJ Styles in 2016.

The Royal Rumble is an excellent opportunity for injured or former superstars to show up in WWE. The unpredictability of who comes out at each number leaves open the possibility for anyone to walk out, so much so that fans have come to expect that someone on the shelf will return or an NXT superstar will be promoted in this match.

So who will be surprise entrants on Sunday? You know there have to be a couple guys not currently on the active roster who will enter the Rumble and pop the crowd. Predictions?
