10 Shocks You Could See At WWE Royal Rumble 2017

7. Kurt Angle

First thing's first: Angle has outright denied that he'll be wrestling at the Royal Rumble. That's a shame, but then again, wrestling is a business built on deception and surprise.

I'm not suggesting for a second that Kurt should win the match; such a booking decision would represent yet another part-timer crowding the WrestleMania card, taking card space away from those who've carried the company over the past few years.

However, would I want to see the Olympic Hero enter the match? Absolutely. Kurt's theme music would garner the biggest pop of the night, no doubt about it. His involvement could well be limited to a few nostalgia spots and a couple of eliminations, but would you pass up the chance to see him in a WWE ring again?
