#4 Former WWE United States Champion Andrade

Former WWE United States Champion Andrade has not been on television since October 12th, when he and Zelina Vega were attacked by The Fiend and Alexa Bliss on RAW.

In the build-up to this attack, Andrade had been competing for tag team gold with Angel Garza, and the pair were managed by Zelina Vega. However, the group split after Vega left Garza and Andrade, sick of their arguing. Vega was released by WWE not long after this.

It has not yet been announced when Andrade will be returning to WWE, but a Royal Rumble appearance may be a good way to bring the star back to in-ring action. Andrade's fiance, Charlotte Flair has just come back to the company after six months away from action, and the multiple-time champion won the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Asuka in her first match back at TLC.

Suggestions point to Charlotte Flair and Andrade being paired up on-screen upon his return, and the duo being pushed on television as WWE's latest power couple. A way to establish Andrade into main event status could be a surprise Royal Rumble return, with an impressive performance in the match.
