#4 Former two-time RAW Women's Champion - Asuka

Born in Osaka, Japan, WWE Superstar Asuka is undoubtedly one of the top performers in the Women's Division.

The Empress of Tomorrow put up a spirited showing at the inaugural 30-Woman Royal Rumble Match in 2018. She eliminated Nikki Bella as the last competitor to win the whole thing.

The Japanese superstar then went on to headline WrestleMania 34 that year but unfortunately came up short against Charlotte Flair for her SmackDown Women's Championship.


#3 Former two-time WWE Champion - Drew McIntyre

Born in Ayr, Scotland, Drew McIntyre is one of the most accomplished competitors to step foot in the squared circle.

The Scottish Warrior undoubtedly made 2020 his own as he won his first Royal Rumble, eliminating Roman Reigns as the last competitor and then headlined WrestleMania 36. At The Showcase of the Immortals, McIntyre soared further to beat then-champion Brock Lesnar to earn the top prize in the promotion.

Although unlikely, one would surely hope to see The Scottish Superstar appear at this year's 30- Man Royal Rumble Match and possibly look to ascend to his second triumph.
