#2 Kenny Omega
Trending
Unlikely? Yes. Impossible? After the things that we saw in WWE in 2016 alone, absolutely not.
Let’s run through a few of the things that happened in 2016 that, if you had told someone in 2015 these things would happen, they would have laughed in your face. AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, and Shinsuke Nakamura all jumped ship from NJPW to WWE.
Styles and Nakamura both became champions within their first few months on the roster.
Shane McMahon returned and faced the Undertaker at WrestleMania. He then went on to become the COO of the newly-live SmackDown following the return of the brand split. Now, are you really going to sit there and say it’s impossible for Kenny Omega to appear in the Royal Rumble?
Omega has been outspoken about being OK with never coming to WWE, but he has never ruled it out. And right now seems to be as good a time as ever for him to come to the WWE should he choose to.
Omega tweeted the following his WK11 match, saying “there is no plan. My schedule is cleared and I’m weighing all options. I’ve a lot to consider. Thx for the patience/support”.
WWE is certainly interested in him. After all, he’s probably the biggest global talent who is not under a WWE contract. Should the two sides come to an agreement, there is a chance Omega makes an appearance in this year’s Royal Rumble.
A remote chance, but a chance nonetheless.
