The chances of this happening are very slim and this is at the top of potential surprises that could happen. 


2) Kazuchika Okada



This is yet another top wrestler from another company that could debut in WWE at the Royal Rumble.

Kazuchika Okada is one of the best Wrestlers in the world and him showing at the Royal Rumble will be one of the biggest moments of the year and one of the biggest shocks of the year. Triple H has wanted him In WWE for the longest time . 


3) The Rock 



This is something that can actually happen at the Royal Rumble. This would be one of the biggest pops of the year and The Rock has said that he wants to make history in WWE this year and he has set his sights on Roman Reigns this year for a big match at WrestleMania 40. The fans would lose their minds and he would be one of the favorites to win the match. It is great seeing The Rock on a more regular basis in WWE for a few months. The 2024 Royal Rumble has the potential to be the best of all time


4) Stone Cold Steve Austin



This would also be one of the biggest surprises that could happen at the Royal Rumble Match. Stone Cold Steve Austin is rumored to have a match at WrestleMania 40 and an appearance at the Royal Rumble Match and a potential stare down with The Rock, CM Punk and others is absolutely mouth watering. Triple H can say to the Wrestling world that nobody will produce a better show in 2024. The fans in Tampa Florida will be in for a treat. 


5) John Cena



The final WWE superstar to wrap up this list is none other than John Cena. John Cena loves WWE and he has said that he will always come back to WWE whenever they need him. And an appearance at the Royal Rumble Match would generate such a huge pop from the fans. He can have so many cool interactions with CM Punk, Brock Lesnar, The Rock, Cody Rhodes etc. 

Even if 2 from this list actually happens at the actual Royal Rumble Match then this show will be one of the best of all time. Triple H has earned the goodwill of all the wrestlers be it past or present.
