#3 Chris Jericho
It's hard to believe that Chris Jericho has been in WWE for almost two decades and has yet to win the Royal Rumble match. He came close five years ago when he was set to face CM Punk at WrestleMania 28 for the WWE Championship, but WWE changed plans and went with Sheamus instead.
Needless to say, Jericho is nearing the end of his career, and if there was ever a year for him to win one, it would be 2017. Over the last year, he has done some of his best work both in the ring and as a character, reinventing himself as a heel and debuting “The List of Jericho.”
He has a ready-made feud with WWE Universal champion Kevin Owens, who he has been aligned with since the summer. That match must happen at 'Mania at this point, and what better way to set it up than by Jericho winning the Rumble and choosing to face his best friend on the grandest stage of them all?
