10 Last-Minute WWE Elimination Chamber 2017 Rumours You Need To Know

8. Erick Rowan Returns

Early in the Randy Orton-Bray Wyatt feud, Erick Rowan played loyal henchman to The Wyatt Family's leader. That usually involved him getting beaten up by Orton, but he still did his job with gusto until a torn rotator cuff put him on the shelf.

According to The Wrestling Observer, Erick Rowan has recovered from his injury and is working out in the ring, meaning that he could come back to TV at any time. That said, I don't see him coming back on Sunday. There are two major matches for the The Wyatt Family - Randy Orton versus Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt in the Chamber - and Rowan returning now may just serve to complicate things.

He should definitely come back before WrestleMania - I think there's good storyline potential in adding him to the mix and maybe even doing Harper and Rowan versus Wyatt and Orton matches before Orton turns - but like Orton's turn itself, that can come later.
