Partial Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter John Cena and Sheamus are expected to make returns at the WWE Royal Rumble in January, as surprise entrants in the Rumble match itself. Of course, this all depends on their injuries and how fast they are able to rehab. This would likely mean that other current or former stars will be making surprise returns at the event this year. Jake "The Snake" Roberts had been talking for months about being a part of the 2014 Rumble, but may not do it this time with both Cena and Sheamus likely returning. Plans could always change between now and January, but this is currently what is being planned.
Oh the irony. They sure won't be any sort of surprise come Royal Rumble seeing that this was leaked about 4 months before the event. Neither can win though. No, just no. Don't even want to think about that bad booking.
YES PUSH SANTINO. Actually, it might be logical to do that, throw him in the WHC match which is not even looked at a main event now (hell, the divas title is more important than the WHC), and then allow yourself (meaning WWE creative) to book the match they think will be "best for business" for WM 30. So in all theory KvM, that would be #WWElogic to let Santino win the RR.
