5 NXT Superstars who could appear in the 2019 Royal Rumble match

#1 EC3

EC3 is going to be a top star in the company

While EC3 has made sporadic appearances on Main Event, he is yet to make his in-ring debut for the red or the blue brand, and there is no bigger match than Royal Rumble for EC3 to make his mark.

EC3 is everything that Vince looks for. He has the right looks, the right body, and the right wrestling style. Don't be surprised if Ethan Carter III is made to look like a million bucks, and given a big push.

Like Drew McIntyre, He had an abysmal first run with the company, and he went into the indie scene to make himself a better wrestler and has now returned to the biggest company in the industry.

EC3 has spent only a few months in the WWE's development center- NXT and is already scheduled to be called up to the main roster. Royal Rumble can be the place where this call-up can happen. This Royal Rumble match can be used to place him in a feud with Bobby Lashley for the Intercontinental Championship.
