#5 Big E
Big E may not be on the fan’s radar right now, but perhaps he should. Though he’s only known for being the fun loving muscleman of The New Day, that may change very soon. The fact is that The New Day will eventually come to an end.
When that happens, each man must find his own way. Of the three, Big E may have the biggest upside. The reason for that is due to his size and agility in the ring. He’s a much different big man than WWE has seen in a long time, and that should bode well for him in the future.

He’s quick on his feet, he can bring the power moves, and his storytelling ability in the ring has greatly improved over the past few years. He’s also one of the most entertaining Superstars on the WWE roster, which means that he has the whole package.
But he has not really stood out from The New Day, which should change on January 29. Despite what number he draws, Big E should hit the match and make an immediate impact. He should eliminate several Superstars, and it should become obvious that he’s ready to win.
Big E needs to establish himself as a real player, which is something that WWE surely wants.
Having him as another main event option is the right move, and Big E definitely deserves that spot. The fans will undoubtedly support him, and Big E could find himself on the verge of a whole new direction when The Royal Rumble is over.
