#3 – Putting in Roman Reigns at #30 instead of Finn Balor or Samoa Joe
When the entrants for the 2017 Royal Rumble were announced, there were a total of eight spots that were left unclaimed for surprises, debuts and returns. While the best surprise was Tye Dillinger at #10, and it was great to see Jack Gallagher from 205 Live, the rest of the unclaimed entrants were not that newsworthy.
When Undertaker came out at #29, there was still hope for a big shocker at #30. Could it be Finn Balor returning from injury? Could it be a debuting Samoa Joe? Unfortunately no, it was Roman Reigns, who we had already seen earlier in the night.
While Reigns is great as a wrestler, the booking behind him is why the WWE Universe boos him, and it therefore made the #30 entrant very anti-climatic.
