For reference, here was last year's field to see who's still on the roster today:

Hard to imagine anyone but Charlotte’s husband winning. They even separated him from the pack in the picture. It looks like it’s advertised as Andrade and friends. Last year’s picture looks like Lashley is in focus and everyone else is purposely faded. I don’t remember but feel safe in assuming he won.

I can see Andrade winning or maybe Gable. I still wish the match was on Mania so more people get to be on the actual Mania card itself.

If Bron was in it I figured he'd win but he's not even in the photo. It seems like they're purposefully holding off on him and Tiffany and plan to push them big post-Mania. They both got spotlight video packages on TV this week and will likely have high profile Mania debuts next year. Seems like they don't want them "tainted" by being in filler/lower-midcard stuff for their first Manias (although this battle royal technically wouldn't qualify as that anyway as it's on Smackdown the night before).
Assuming there's no shock appearances I think Gable and Andrade are the most likely winners from those names. Andrade is fresh of a return and Gable could use the win as a stepping stone to get a final shot at Gunther if he gets past Sami.

What's interesting is that most of these people are on tv regularly within current programs. It really shows the depth of talent they have when you've got Gable and Nakamura in this match.

Without Bron in guessing this is going to be won by Gable or Nakamura, are the two biggest names in the match. Maybe Reed or Andrade.

I see Andrade eliminating Gable for the win if there isn't a surprise entry like Bron Breakker.

Feel for Shinsuke, he really should have been the first Japanese WWE champion by now but its clear it will never be.

You have two nights now... if you are going to do this thing then actually put it on Mania or don't do it at all.
Because it's not like this has ever meant anything... you blew that right away when you paired Cesaro with Heyman turning him heel (sorta, he was getting face pops but he was a heel) and then Heyman didn't even bother talking about him...

But Plat, what will WrestleMania be without the random cameo from the dude with the Andre trophy who does nothing else of note across two nights?!

Given how it feels like an outright curse on the careers of people who win this match, it'd be so f***ing funny if Andrade won

Given how it feels like an outright curse on the careers of people who win this match, it'd be so f***ing funny if Andrade won I looked it up of the 9 winners... 6 were released after winning... (1 of which was rehired, Braun) of the 3 left, one is Baron Corbin who they've thrown countless accolades at to et people to care about him on the main roster and like none of them have worked. One is Jey Uso, who... they NEVER mention actually won the thing... and the last one is Bobby Lashley who again they don't mention winning and spent most of the year kinda not doing much of any importance... (and now he's in a feud with Karrion Kross which is almost a punishment ) and Jey and Bobby both Won on Smackdown... not on Mania itself...
