#18 Possible: Ember Moon
After a year-long chase for the NXT Women’s Championship, Ember Moon finally got her hands on the gold at TakeOver: WarGames in November. She’ll have a match at TakeOver: Philadelphia the night before the Rumble on 27 January, but that doesn’t mean she can’t appear 24 hours later to make her main-roster debut.
#17 Certainty: Lana (SmackDown Live)
Lana put in much better performances than anyone expected when she faced Naomi for the SmackDown Live Women’s Championship earlier in 2017. We see duos fall out as much as we see duos work together in Royal Rumble matches, so expect some kind of shenanigans either way with her and Tamina.
#16 Certainty: Mickie James (Raw)
Mickie James was largely forgotten about when she switched to Raw in April’s Superstar Shake-Up. However, her recent feud with Alexa Bliss has made her more relevant than she’s been in a long time. It’d make a great story if she wins. Don’t count her out!
