WWE Women’s Royal Rumble 2025: Predicting All 30 Entrants

27. Nikki Cross

There's one straightforward reason why Nikki Cross and her spooky behaviour landed here. That'll be revealed shortly, and it's a throwback to the time when Nikki first charmed WWE management by taking the initiative as a performer. Initially, it was tempting to leave her off the 30-woman roster for this match entirely. Does she really fit in a standard match these days?

That was the thinking, but then...yeah, things changed. Cross is skilled enough to make it work, and her Wyatt Sicks character is sufficiently unique enough when compared to literally everyone else in the bout. Those inside the ring will stop and stare as she makes her way down the aisle. Some may even run for the hills.

Cool, because that'll clear the way for Nikki's true purpose this year.

28. Alexa Bliss

If this does happen, then it's important WWE realises the error of their ways and restores Alexa's original entrance theme. Some tracks just shouldn't be touched, and that was one of them. Her latest music sucks by comparison. Sorry, but it's true. It's like going from Metallica's Master Of Puppets to St. Anger.

Bliss has been rather candid about the chances of a return any time soon. She's told fans it isn't exclusively up to her, but says she misses performing. Come the 2025 Rumble, it'll be over two full years since Alexa hit the ring for a match. That's a lifetime in the modern game, so it's it's possible then it'd be sweet to see her back doing what she loves and working a moment with real life pal Nikki Cross.

WWE could make it easier for Bliss by booking her as #28. That'd mean she'd only have to wrestle for around 10 minutes or so. Ease her back in, Hunter.
