Guys like Scurll and White aren’t big enough names to debut on the Main Roster. Most people outside of your die-hard wrestling fans have no idea who those 2 are.

Who is Asuka wrestling at the rumble with Charlotte in the rumble? Shayna?

Other than a surprise entrant like Rhea, Becky, or Ronda I don’t see anyone on the women’s roster winning the rumble except for Bianca.

I think with a crowd they would have enough fans attending live who know them to get enough of a pop to help the WWE only group figure out they're big deals, but that sure isn't happening this year. |

Even with a crowd. The reason they risked it with AJ was because AJ Styles had become a large name in the wrestling industry being TNA’s poster child for almost a decade. Most wrestling fans don’t even know who Marty Scurll or Jay White are. Again, unless they follow other promotions. |

Agree 100%, in NXT to the hardcore fan base that would be the place to debut and gain interest. You throw them in the rumble and the casual WWE fan probably has no idea who they are. AJ was synonymous with TNA and was “their guy”. Scurll is synonymous with #speakingout and White hasn’t put in enough years to garner that type of respect. I equate it more to when Austin Theory showed up randomly one day in NXT and I was supposed to care who this was. |

I wouldn't be shocked if Rhea wins the Rumble and Charlotte wins the title from Asuka soon to set up a rematch for WrestleMania between Rhea/Charlotte.

I'd bet anything Charlotte wins the Women's Rumble.
I am curious to see what it's going to be like having a pre-recorded crowd counting down from 10 and then popping for an entrance. This could be even more bizarre than the dome has been thus far.

She just got back and she is finally in a program that doesn’t revolve around a title. |

But I’d literally hate if they had her win a second year in a row. Absolutely no reason for it. She won’t gain anything from it. |

That's the only long term plan for the women they care about. The rest of the roster is fodder. |

I can see a Flair and a surprise Tessa Blanchard and Rousey as the last three. Ronda wins.
As for the guys, Big E all the way. They need to strap that rocket and light the fuse. Have E soar higher than Kofi ever could.

I wonder what the odds of Rollins coming back & winning are. Roman/Rollins seems like something they'd build to and it would make sense.
