• Big Names Seen In Philadelphia – Potential Surprise Entrants In Royal Rumble 2018
The following were spotted today in Philadelphia:
– The Undertaker
– Michelle McCool
– Ethan Carter III (EC3)
– Ricochet
– Candice LaRae
– Shawn Michaels
With The Undertaker and his wife Michelle McCool, it’s possible that at least one of them is used as surprise entrants in the Royal Rumble matches (as Michelle usually comes to WWE events to watch her husband compete, but this time it could be the other way around too).
Former WWE & TNA wrestler EC3 will most likely be a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble match as he recently left Impact Wrestling and got pulled from an indy event which takes place on the same day as the Royal Rumble 2018 PPV.
With Ricochet, his case could be that he either shows up as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble match, or is used at tonight’s NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia event.
Candice LaRae might get used in the Women’s Royal Rumble match, as Wrestling Observer noted that 9 wrestlers from NXT would be used in the Women’s Royal Rumble match.
Shawn Michaels would most likely be shown in the crowd at NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia tonight or might get used in some segment at the Royal Rumble PPV.
