Surprises?
Every year, WWE has surprise entrants in the Rumble matches, and this year is no different. Pwinsider reports Sean Waltman, Naomi & Liv Morgan are believed to be Royal Rumble surprises.
Morgan is expected to return soon from an injury that has kept her sidelined since last summer, while Naomi is expected to finish up with TNA Wrestling this month after Hard To Kill before returning to WWE.
Waltman, a WWE Hall of Famer, had been spotted at the Performance Center last week, and there was talk he would be in Florida for WWE over Rumble weekend.
