WWE Royal Rumble 2019: Predicting the final participants for the Women's Royal Rumble

Modified Jan 27, 2019 01:30 GMT

Ronda Rousey debuted at last year's Royal Rumble PPV.

Mia Yim

Like Victoria, Mia Yim had a strong run in Impact Wrestling as Jade. She was a member of the Dollhouse with Taryn Terrell and Marti Belle.

But when the faction broke up, she went her own way and had great matches with Gail Kim, Belle, Mickie James and Rosemary. She appeared in last year's Mae Young Classic and signed with WWE shortly thereafter. Since she is already so polished in the ring, she doesn't need much time in NXT.

A good way to get her in front of the WWE Universe would be to have her as a surprise entrant in this year's rumble. She's technically sound, exciting and would get a pop from the fans who follow pro wrestling and not just WWE.

If she isn't slated for a big run in NXT, it might be better to have her appear on the main roster sooner rather than later. With the tag-team titles coming in February, it might create more opportunities for women to move up to the main roster.
