20 Possible WWE Royal Rumble 2016 Surprise Entrants

by Matt Davis

1. Triple H

Triple H takes the top spot not only because of the a big surprise it would be considering The Game's semi-retired status right now, but because it could very well make the biggest impact of all the 2016 Royal Rumble entrants.

Similar to John Cena in 2008, Triple H may not only make a surprise entry into the Royal Rumble, but would probably win the whole thing if he did.

A Roman Reigns vs. Triple H feud is clearly being penciled in for some point in the near future, and what better way to throw gas onto the fire of this feud than by having The Game win the Royal Rumble and challenge for Roman's title at WrestleMania.

Throw in some potential spots with his Kliq buddies along with some physical exchanges with other young WWE (or NXT?) superstars, and a Triple H appearance in the 2016 Royal Rumble could make for one of the most interesting surprise entrants ever.
