WWE Royal Rumble 2024 is months away, but the anticipation for this iconic premium live event is already in the air. Wrestling enthusiasts across the globe can’t help but engage in passionate discussions, speculating on the potential victors of this thrilling event.
With plenty of talent present on the WWE roster, the possibilities are seemingly endless. Yet, certain individuals are standing out as prime contenders who can seize a guaranteed World Championship opportunity at WrestleMania 40. Without further ado let’s discuss the five WWE superstars who could win WWE Royal Rumble 2024.
1. CM Punk can win WWE Royal Rumble 2024
With CM Punk’s release from AEW, the opportunity for his WWE return has again resurfaced, and the likelihood of it happening has significantly risen due to Endeavour’s takeover. If both the parties reach an agreement before Royal Rumble, CM Punk would emerge as the leading contender to win the Men’s Royal Rumble 2024.

Gunther elevated the significance of Intercontinental Championship more than anyone else did in WWE history and his dominant run speak volume for that. The time has now arrived for The Ring General to take that momentum ahead and set sights for even greater milestones, winning the Royal Rumble match would mark an ideal beginning to this journey.
3. Jade Cargill
Recently, Jade Cargill signed with WWE and became the second major AEW superstar to make the switch. WWE’s announcement of Jade Cargill’s arrival displayed the level of significance her inclusion holds for the women’s division. Jade could make her WWE debut at the Royal Rumble and possibly triumph in the 30-woman battle royal, establishing herself as a formidable force to be reckoned with.
4. The Rock can win WWE Royal Rumble 2024
I’m known to be a straight shooter and speak directly from the heart 🖤🤣

With The Rock’s recent revelation of the almost-set WrestleMania 39 bout, fans are eagerly anticipating the dream match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40. Since the Royal Rumble provides a legal pathway to challenge Reigns, winning the Rumble would be the most reliable way to turn this dream showdown into reality.
5. Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes definitely deserves a consideration as a potential victor in the upcoming Royal Rumble as his narrative to “Finish the story” is yet to be achieved. If the creative team’s interest reignites towards the story, we might witness Cody winning the Royal Rumble and headlining WrestleMania for a second time in a row.
