Shawn Michaels might choose Lash Legend to represent the NXT brand in the Women’s Royal Rumble bout. She may score a couple of eliminations and demonstrate her strength to the WWE Universe.

4. Ethan Page

Ethan Page has excelled as a villain for the NXT brand. He transformed into a more sinister version of himself in order to pursue his rivalry with Je’Von Evans. WWE appears to have a lot of faith in Ethan’s ability. That explains why he had an NXT Championship run so early in his career.

Page has the potential to make an impact in the Men’s Royal Rumble contest. He might even face CM Punk and maybe eliminate him from the competition to acquire even more traction. CM Punk and Ethan Page have a longstanding feud, and his actions might have a significant influence.

3. Oba Femi

NXT has some of the most influential names in the industry, none so more than the current NXT Champion Oba Femi, who has emerged as the most outstanding of the lot in recent years.

The 26-year-old has risen to the top of the NXT roster, sweeping past all opposition. He has established his value by demonstrating his incredible talent and strength to the WWE Universe.

Shawn Michaels will be tempted to have his top champion compete in the Royal Rumble. His performance may turn a few heads and gain him some admirers who will start watching the show. Oba Femi might enter the tournament early and eliminate a few contestants to establish himself.

2. Penta El Zero

Penta, WWE’s latest addition to the Red brand, has made quite an impression with his debut. The former AEW star has demonstrated his abilities with spectacular performances on Monday Night Raw.

Penta defeated Chad Gable in his WWE debut before defeating Pete Dunne in his most recent bout. He might carry this momentum into his first Royal Rumble participation.

The creative team might cast Penta as a formidable opponent in the 30-man elimination battle, allowing him to score some significant eliminations. He might potentially join his first major rivalry by eliminating a top villain from the match.

The 2025 Royal Rumble may help Triple H establish Penta as a prominent talent. His performance in the battle might have a significant influence.

1. Jacob Fatu

Jacob Fatu has quickly established himself as one of WWE’s most deadly men. He debuted as a member of Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline, and no one knows what he’s up to now.

Fatu hasn’t had the best bookings, owing to storylines involving his side. However, WWE may have him make an impression in his Royal Rumble debut.

With Solo Sikoa likely out of the picture for a while, Jacob Fatu will be on his own if he enters the contest. He may take out various men to create an impression, including Jey & Jimmy Uso and Sami Zayn.
