WWE Royal Rumble 2015: 10 Biggest Rumours

6. NXT Royal Rumble Entrants

Since the arrival of the WWE Network, NXT has enjoyed increased exposure and critical acclaim. It is not hard to see why, either. One look at one of the brand's signature, two-hour live specials gives fans a taste of everything that makes the professional wrestling industry great.

Outstanding ring work, unmatched athleticism, strong storytelling and unique characters have come together to create the perfect blend of sport and entertainment. Stars such as Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville and Tyler Breeze were responsible for some tremendous matches and angles and now, they could have the opportunity to shine on their biggest stage to date, at least according to a report from sescoops.com.

The site reports that, not only has the company weighed the option of entering one or two of the brand's top stars in the annual battle royal, but they have surveyed fans about which competitors they would most like to see involved in the bout.

WWE surveyed fans asking which NXT stars they would most like to see in the Rumble, with the options being €” Adrian Neville, Sami Zayn, Hideo Itami, Finn Balor, Kalisto, Tyler Breeze, Bull Dempsey and Enzo Amore.
Neville and Zayn are the two most well established stars, having competed all year long, while Balor and Itami are the hot newbies. If the reports hold true and NXT does make its presence felt in this year's Royal Rumble match, expect the current champion Zayn and the "Man Who Gravity Forgot" Neville to be the representatives.
