5 WWE stars who would be wasted spots in The Royal Rumble

#1 Finn Balor

Finn Balor has been making headlines this week for all the wrong reasons

Finn Balor was originally scheduled to face Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at next year's Royal Rumble, but it seems that these plans have recently changed. Balor could now be put into the Royal Rumble match instead, but it's obvious that he wouldn't be winning the match.

If McMahon doesn't have enough faith in Finn to face Brock at The Royal Rumble then it's highly unlikely that he will allow the Inaugural Universal Champion to win the match and go on to main event WrestleMania.

Add that to the fact that Roman Reigns is practically already confirmed to be challenging The Beast at WrestleMania and it seems that a SmackDown superstar will be the one to win next year's annual match and Finn doesn't match this description.
