10 WWE Stars Who Could Win The 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble

4. Lana

Okay, Lana may not be everyone’s favourite but this is a truly potential shocker.

Lana has not been seen since before TLC 2020 when she was distastefully removed from her Tag Title clash against Baszler and Jax due to an injury inflicted by the then-champions.

It was rather confusing that WWE removed her from TV, stopping any chance of her gaining vengeance on Jax and the wholesome moment of winning her first title.

Perhaps they didn’t go this route because their plan is for Lana to return at the Rumble, barely survive, but find herself as the last women standing. Similar to the ending of the women’s Survivor Series match.

3. Rhea Ripley

This heavily rumoured win has come out of nowhere. Nevertheless, if Rhea Ripley wins, a lot of people would burst with joy – she definitely deserves it!

Ripley has been on a neverending treadmill as of late. She has had lots of TV time and won plenty matches, but her path in NXT doesn’t seem to be taking her anywhere.

Last year, she was the biggest threat in the division. Just coming off the back of an exciting championship victory against Shayna Baszler, she was on top of the world.

This all came crashing down when Charlotte Flair challenged her for the biggest bout in her career, which Ripley was on the losing end of.

Since that devastating moment (which didn’t really lead to much), Ripley hasn’t been able to climb back to where she once was on Wednesday nights.

So, it would certainly make sense to have her solidify her much-required main roster debut by greeting her colleagues by throwing them over the top rope. If she wins the entire thing that would be an insane start to her huge career.

If Ripley is the light at the end of the Rumble, Charlotte Flair could beat Asuka for the championship before WrestleMania 37, leading to a rematch between Flair and Ripley one year later.
