WWE Royal Rumble 2018: Rating Each Entrant’s Chances Of Winning

17. Xavier Woods

Royal Rumble 2018 Entrants
WWE.com

Few main roster wrestlers improved as dramatically as Xavier Woods in 2017. Once considered The New Day's weakest link, he has made notable strides between the ropes over the past 12 months, and was perhaps the biggest star of his group's epic feud with The Usos.

But will this result in a strong Rumble run? Probably not.

Woods is fantastic, and often the glue holding his group together, but with Kofi's penchant for dramatic escapes and Big E primed for a textbook powerhouse run, he'll probably be the New Day member that makes the least impact in the Rumble.

Chances: None.
