5 dark horse predictions who could win the Royal Rumble match 

#4 Baron Corbin

The Lone Wolf has been very quiet lately.

WWE is known for booking stars poorly before a big win. They have done it in the past with most Money in the Bank briefcase holders and Royal Rumble winners.

Last year nobody expected Randy Orton to win the Rumble match. If that indicates the beginning of a trend in which the WWE wants to shock its viewers, the "Lone Wolf" is a good option.

Since losing the United States Championship to Dolph Ziggler, Corbin has been missing in action on SmackDown.This would make Corbin winning the Rumble match even more shocking.
