5 Superstars who could be surprise entrants in the Men's and Women's Royal Rumble matches this year

#4 AJ Lee

Will AJ Lee return for the first time in six years?

Since the commencement of the Women's Royal Rumble match in 2018, it has had a couple of major surprises. While several noteworthy women from the past had come back and competed in the ring, AJ Lee, the former Divas Champion, is yet to participate in a women's Royal Rumble match.

The 32-year old hung up her boots very early in her career, announcing her retirement a few years ago, due not only to an injury but also a dissonance between her husband CM Punk and WWE. If the three-time Divas Champion decides to return for a special appearance at Royal Rumble, she could certainly do it.

With CM Punk back working in partnership company as a guest of the FOX show 'Backstage', it's safe to say that his relationship has improved with WWE. Moreover, AJ Lee's appearance could shock the fans, and she will be aiming to eliminate some women, proving why she was one of the longest-reigning women's champions in her heyday.
