10 Wrestlers Who Should Be Number One In The 2015 Royal Rumble

6. Randy Orton

Similar to Sheamus, Randy Orton is due back from injury any day now; he was set to make his long awaited return to WWE TV on the final Raw of 2014. Unfortunately, a deviated septum kept him out of action longer than expected, but the Royal Rumble match is the perfect place for him to return. It also wouldn't be too surprising if The Authority affected his standing in the bout by naming him the No. 1 entrant given their storied history. Remember, the last time The Viper appeared on Raw, he was getting viciously attacked by The Authority's own Seth Rollins and as it currently stands, the two are on a collision course for WrestleMania 31. While it's highly unlikely Rollins will be taking part in the 2015 Rumble match, he can always get his revenge on The Authority by eliminating the likes of Big Show and Kane. Triple H may look to make it impossible for Orton to become the sixth man in history to win his second Rumble, but it wouldn't be the first time Orton has started off the annual Battle Royal; he's able to adapt in any situation he's placed in and could execute a record-setting number of RKOs if he's allowed to enter the Rumble before anyone else.
