Is this the year they need to have a fan favorite win? Where should WWE value the macro legacy of the Rumble brand compared to the immediate micro priority of booking a good WrestleMania storyline? Should this be a year a wildcard wins from NXT or elsewhere? Should reaction to recent winners influence who wins this year? And more.
