WWE Royal Rumble 2022: Predicting All 17 Wrestlers Not Yet Announced

4. Ricochet

A similar entrant to Cesaro here. Ricochet is a spectacular athlete fortunate enough to make television most weeks, which is no mean feat in a promotion where talented midcarders frequently go missing. SmackDown needs wrestlers in this match, so here he is.

There's a lot WWE can do with a guy like Ricochet in the match. He's a one-of-a-kind talent with a one-of-a-kind skillset that they never seem to want to capitalise on, though him taking to the skies to avoid elimination (or dump someone out) in spectacular fashion would at least give him a highlight in the Rumble.

If he makes it.
