Andrade "Cien" Almas is the kind of heel that Vince Mcmahon loves to get behind: a foreign superstar with a disregard for the American culture. When you have the kind of moveset and technical ability that Andrade has, you have the recipe for a major player moving forward.

In NXT he stole the show at multiple Takeover events, with his match wit Johnny Gargano being a strong contender for Match of the Year 2018. It even earned a 5 star rating from Dave Meltzer, which, for a match not booked by NJPW, is massive.

His booking, however, has not been the best since his move up to the big leagues. At some point this will need to change and a strong showing in the Rumble match could be the perfect remedy.

After a pinfall victory over Rey Mysterio on Smackdown last night it seems that creative might be ready to get behind him in the weeks leading up to the Rumble. With this in mind expect him to perform well in the match with multiple eliminations.
