10 Potential surprise returns and debuts at the Royal Rumble 2017

9: Shaq

Could Shaq make a surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble?

Another possible surprise entrant for the Royal Rumble is NBA legend Shaquille O’ Neal who will probably be facing the Big Show at Wrestlemania 33 in a match that no one is particularly excited about. Shaq made a surprise appearance at the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at Wrestlemania 32 and with his match with Show at Wrestlemania 33 in the pipeline, WWE could bring out Shaq as a surprise entrant at the Rumble.

It would be a chance to possibly build up his match with the Big Show (if Big Show takes part in the Royal Rumble match) or give Shaq a little time inside the WWE ring ahead of ‘Mania.

WWE love surprises at the Rumble and having Shaq come out seems like a no-brainer.
