5 wrestlers who could become first-time Royal Rumble winners

#2 Braun Strowman

Until Braun Strowman wins the Royal Rumble, he will always make a list of this sort because of the intimidating force that he has become since breaking free from the Wyatt Family during the brand split of July 2016.

Much like Samoa Joe, Strowman has nearly taken the WWE Universal Championship away from Brock Lesnar on a couple of occasions including their one-on-one match at No Mercy this past September.

It is not a matter of if, but a matter of when Strowman is a world champion within the WWE, and he's definitely one of the favorites to win this year's match. It'll take an army of WWE Superstars to eliminate him, and if he draws one of the later numbers, look out!
