10 Last-Minute WWE Royal Rumble 2017 Rumors You Need To Know
3. Tye Dillinger Debuts In The Rumble Match
It seems like even before anybody was announced for the Royal Rumble match, fans were already fantasy booking the main roster debut of Tye Dillinger. NXT's "Perfect 10" is obsessed with the number 10 - his music has a countdown, he constantly flashes 10 fingers, he gets fans to chant ten non-stop - so it would make perfect sense for him to join the Rumble at #10.
Given that Dillinger - who's been in development for years under one name or another - has wrapped up all his loose ends in NXT, has always been a polished worker, and has finally found a gimmick that's gotten him over - the timing seems perfect. While he's certainly not going to win the match, he could easily show up at #10 en route to joining Raw or Smackdown.
Will it happen? I think so. Enough people want it that there'll be vocal disappointment in the crowd if he's not #10, and as much as WWE likes to get the fans angry from time to time, we've seen too much of that in recent Rumbles. It's anything but definite, but there's a good chance.
