#3 Former WWE Champion Sheamus
Sheamus hasn't been a genuine WWE main event player for quite some time. But the Royal Rumble Match could launch one last run atop the card for "The Celtic Warrior." Sheamus' current storyline with WWE Champion Drew McIntyre is fascinating. Sheamus was a cold-blooded heel just a few months ago, so it seems like it's just a matter of time until he betrays McIntyre.
Sheamus typically thrives in the Royal Rumble Match. He won the bout in 2012, and he delivered strong outings in the next two years. "The Celtic Warrior" can go a long way in the match, so he could be the Iron Man this time around.
A lengthy performance in the match, followed by an unfortunate elimination in the final moments, could let WWE begin Sheamus' feud with McIntyre. A remarkable showing in the Royal Rumble Match would give Sheamus a lot of momentum, and it would also make him a credible threat to McIntyre and his WWE Championship.
