Prediction: Sol Ruca will become the women's Royal Rumble version of Kofi Kingston. In other words, she'll find a killer way to escape elimination by using her supreme athleticism after being hoisted over the top rope. Sol has come a long, long way from donning mascot costumes at WrestleMania!

She's done well to make her mark on the NXT scene, but it's time for something more. Ruca can't stay in developmental forever, and her performance vs. Bayley on the 13 December 2025 Saturday Night's Main Event showed why; Sol is more than ready to go up a notch and see what she can achieve on the main roster.

Eliminating a few workers in eye-popping fashion, then hanging on by the skin of her teeth into the bargain, makes logical sense.
