After speaking with several WWE sources over the weekend, WZ has learned that the company does not currently have plans to bring in any outside talent for this year's Royal Rumble match.
Unlike last year's Royal Rumble match, which featured 40 wrestlers and saw names like Booker T and Kevin Nash make their WWE returns, WZ has been told that this year's match is more likely to focus on names that are already with the company, and if there are any surprise entrants, they will likely be names such as The Undertaker, who is not considered an "outside talent."
WZ was also told that creative has been discussing the idea of potentially featuring a few FCW developmental talents in the match this year, although this has not been confirmed. It is more likely, however, if there are a few slots left in the match to fill, that WWE will go with in-house names rather than outside names making a "one-time appearance/return."

I could see DT Porter entering considering St. Louis is his home town.

Have Dean Ambrose come in and just wreck people. Him or any other top FCW talent coming in, eliminating 5-6 guys and lasting 20 minutes could really help build up someone new. I'd be in favor of one or two FCW guys coming in at the Rumble if it meant they would be built up immediately with good showings. |

Could work if they play a few build up promos before hand, without it they will likely just get a dead crowd reaction.

Yeah, comentary could fill the viewers at home in on who they are, but for the crowd, they just won't react unless there is some build up. |

Stupid, there are 30 Superstars they can put in without bringing in FCW, legends, or having people pull double duty.

The only superstar in FCW I could see this work for in the slightest without build up is Steamboat, simply because he looks so much like his dad and if you put the name "Steamboat" on the trons, people are going to put two and two together.

They have a tonne of people on their current roster who they can't seem to squeeze into any of their shows already.
Why would they want to take the spot they could give to someone who's already there and never gets any TV time and give it to someone the crowd won't know?
Seems stupid to me.

That stinks. The surprise entrants are always the best part.
