Women...

7. Michelle McCool

Entering last year's match as a surprising Rumble beast, Michelle McCool was only in there for eight minutes but led the field with five eliminations within this concise window, as Molly Holly, Vickie Guerrero, and full-timers Sonya Deville, Lana, and Liv Morgan fell by her hand.

She appeared as part of Evolution's banter battle royal as well, making McCool and easy option for Sunday night. The recency of these cameos means she wouldn't be the most exciting surprise in the world, though.

Can we expect a repeat of 2018's dominance if McCool walks down the aisle? Probably not, and WWE would be better served giving that rub to someone who's on television every week, but it can't be ruled out.
