5 WWE Superstars who could match Austin's Royal Rumble record

Stone Cold Steve Austin won his first of three Royal Rumbles in 1997.

John Cena

Perhaps no one has made an entrance at the Royal Rumble like Cena did in 2008.

Cena’s name should stand out among the group of two-time winners, as he is the only truly active wrestler with multiple wins. And with “The Face That Runs the Place” currently sitting just one title reign short of Ric Flair’s 16 world championships, rumors were circulating that Cena might pick up a third Rumble win this year.

That would seem to no longer be in the works for 2017, with Cena set to face AJ Styles for the WWE Championship at the event instead. Still, no one could rule out Cena adding a future Rumble victory to his 2008 and 2013 wins, especially as a way to set up a record-breaking title run.
