#1 Finn Balor

The biggest moment of Finn Balor’s WWE career came at 2016’s SummerSlam, where he defeated Seth Rollins for the new Universal Championship. But if he manages to come back at The Royal Rumble, then he could be heading to an even bigger moment.
Working the main event of WrestleMania is the dream of every WWE Superstar, and Balor could find himself in that exact spot if he wins the Rumble. While it’s unknown if he will physically be ready to compete on January 29, the fact is that fans would surely love to see him in the ring again.
Balor was custom made for WWE. His expert ring work, combined with his flair for the theatrical, makes him a perfect fit in Vince McMahon’s company. He was one of the best signings in Triple H’s NXT regime, and he’s ready for the main event stage.
If he’s cleared to return at the Rumble, Balor could win the match then go on to face either Kevin Owens or Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33. Balor has history with KO and with Reigns as well, so a Mania match with either man would work.
Balor’s Demon persona would surely be the character that fans see if he does indeed come back on January 29. It’s a storyline that writes itself, and it’s an angle that could play out to perfection if Balor comes back at The Royal Rumble.
