The Royal Rumble poster has been released featuring various WWE Superstars:  Notice how guys like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns and Undertaker are front and center while the likes of A.J. Styles, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins are in the back? |

Well to be fair, we know guys like AJ, Ambrose, & Rollins will be there. They're full time talent. But Taker, Goldberg, & Lesnar are all part timers. Part timers who help sell lots of tickets. By putting them on the front, it shows that many part-timers will be involved. Just think... we may actually see Goldberg vs Undertaker at some point. That's enough to entice many fair weathered fans into ordering the network.

I like the poster, despite how AJ and Rollins are in the back. However, I honestly feel that it looks more of a fan-made poster made on Photoshop rather than an official WWE poster.

I can understand Goldberg, Undertaker and Lesnar being in the front. I think if you move Roman Reigns with AJ Styles then the poster will be a bit better. Reigns doesn't have a title so there's no need for him to be in the second row next to Owens or Charlotte who are both champions.

Seeing Undertaker stand side by side with Goldberg is breathtaking. I hope they collide in the Rumble.

Amazing poster! No one got snubbed because all the people in the front have been major focal points lately. Undertaker and Goldberg will be in the same match, that will be a sight to see.

Actually I just noticed Swann and Neville made it over Strowman and Corbin. Kind of an odd choice.

Not being on the poster at all would be a snub, so the fact that Styles, Rollins, and Ambrose are there means they can't be the biggest snub.
I'd say Cesaro or Corbin based on the fact that one is a current champion and the other has been pretty high profile of late.
Braun Strowman, Becky Lynch, Sheamus, and Alexa Bliss are also absent if we're looking for people that were snubbed. Why is R-Truth there, but Goldust isn't...the list goes on and on.

My issues with the poster:
1) AJ Styles being in the third row
2) Rich Swann over Braun Strowman
3) Lay off the photoshop
4) Can it be any more obvious that Taker is winning?

I've noticed aswell that Kane isn't there either. I get that he isn't doing much lately but he been in 16 Rumbles and that's a record so he's basically as relevant as the logo lol.

I wish WWE would go back to Art style. I loved the old school Royal Rumble posters that had a comic book feel to them.

It is a great poster , but imo the 2007 royal rumble poster was a work of art

If taker looked like that still, he'd be convincing as a threat, and that's coming from a taker fan, he looked out of shape on raw, maybe that's just my opinion
