10 Last-Minute WWE WrestleMania 34 Rumours You Need To Know

6. Battle Royal Returns

A whole host of previously injured WWE wrestlers have reportedly been given a clean bill of health on the eve of WrestleMania 34 - namely Samoa Joe, Jeff Hardy, Big Cass, Big Show and Drew McIntyre, five men who could wind up in the pre-show battle royal.

It's unlikely, of course, that all of them will make their returns in the same match. It would completely kill what scarce support Big Cass might be able to glean from the crowd, for example, if Jeff Hardy came out right after him.

Joe, on the other hand, seems too big a star to make his comeback in a (basically meaningless) battle royal. You imagine they will save him for the rowdy post-'Mania episode of Raw, if anything, perhaps getting him stuck into the Universal Title scene on night one.

Now, McIntyre? That seems very plausible. It has been rumoured for months that WWE officials have been meaning to promote him to the main roster once he's fit again, which makes a lot of sense given that the NXT main event has moved on so much in his absence.
