#1 Roman Reigns
Alright let's cut to the chase, Roman Reigns is without a doubt the most likely to win the Royal Rumble this year. While he's still the Intercontinental champion at the time of writing this article, no man has been poised better to win this year's bout.
In 2017 alone, he's beaten the likes of The Undertaker, Triple H, Braun Strowman and came close to winning the Universal championship at Summerslam. He recently reunited with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to reform The Shield and captured the IC title from The Miz earlier in November.
With many a rumour being that Roman is set to clash with Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 34 in the main event for the Universal championship, Roman Reigns is undeniably the big dog looking to claim his yard, starting at the Royal Rumble.
