#3 Sheamus could have the most eliminations in the 2021 Men's Royal Rumble
Heading into Royal Rumble season, Sheamus has shifted into a face persona in late 2020 after spending much of the last few years as a heel. Since he and Drew McIntyre have been friends for many years, that relationship has been played up on RAW over the last few months.

The Celtic Warrior would be a good challenger for the WWE Championship eventually, but not necessarily at the Show of Shows in April. When he has been a heel, his dominance and strength have been two of his main attributes. Those are two things he can show in a Royal Rumble setting. Just like McIntyre eliminated Brock Lesnar with a Claymore Kick last year, Sheamus can do the same with the Brogue Kick. It can happen from any spot in the ring and can easily force performers over the top rope.
Since Sheamus has enjoyed a renewed push as a face on RAW, he could very well have a good run in the Royal Rumble. He's been one of the Champ's most steadfast allies, and he's even been booked in handicap matches on recent episodes of RAW. If he sees John Morrison or The Miz, he'll likely try to Brogue kick them over the ropes.
