Rey Mysterio is another veteran who has been associated with the WWE since years. He held the record of spending the most time in a Royal Rumble match (which was broken by Daniel Bryan last year in Saudi Arabia). Mysterio has been one of the most popular superstars amongst the WWE Universe because of his underdog character.
WWE Creative can use this underdog as the Ironman of the Royal Rumble match this year as he has no storyline on SmackDown Live currently and the 30-man Rumble match can give him a future WrestleMania feud. WWE can even book a David vs. Goliath face-off between RAW's Drew McIntyre and Rey Mysterio. Mysterio had made his emphatic return to the WWE in last year's Royal Rumble match, where he spent nearly 10 minutes after entering the match at #27.
