10. Alexander Rusev
http://youtu.be/-JisLyd4PxE The Bulgarian monster has been on the receiving end of some television time on nearly every episode of Raw and Smackdown since his debut at the Royal Rumble. As a larger wrestler that WWE likely wants to move up the ladder quickly, he is definitely somebody that could make it near the end of the battle royal or possibly win it. What greater impact can somebody make than to win a battle royal in his first WrestleMania match? It would be a huge accomplishment for Rusev. He's an unknown to a lot of fans. He was a featured performer in NXT, but the majority of WWE fans don't really know him from there, so this would be an outstanding way for him to make a big splash on the grandest stage of them all. The only thing that could hurt his chances is that WWE may be more likely to pick a babyface to win the first Andre battle royal simply because it would be more of a feel good moment. If a heel wins then fans would boo the guy. If a face wins then fans can cheer for the winner while also honoring Andre's legacy.
