There are quite a few possible surprise entrants who could show up in the Men's Royal Rumble Match and make an instant impact. While names like Brock Lesnar are being thrown around, the biggest one might be Seth Rollins. His return is imminent, following his paternity leave to be alongside his fiancee Becky Lynch and their newborn daughter.

The four-time WWE world champion could have a major role to play at Royal Rumble, while other Superstars could make a comeback as well. Whether they are from NXT, the commentary desk, or simply a nostalgia entrant, Sunday could see some fun surprises. Each one is spoken of in more detail here.

Anyway, other surprise entrants aside from Rollins could include an NXT call-up for Damian Priest, who hasn't had anything to do since his defeat to Karrion Kross at NXT New Year's Evil. A one-time cameo from Carlito could be fun, considering he was set to be a part of RAW Legends Night.

Also, a couple of commentators in WWE could show up at Royal Rumble. Wade Barrett may return to the ring after nearly five years away, but it is a good bet for Samoa Joe to show up and be ready to fight. He has been out of the ring for nearly a year and has been sorely missed.

The RAW commentator could make a huge impact in the 2021 Men's Royal Rumble Match and after that, he better be factored into stories for the Red brand heading into WrestleMania.
