WWE gathers talent ahead of time to map out their Royal Rumble matches. They also take everything in consideration, because anything can change to cause them to need a new person for the match.
According to a note from PW Insider, WWE had an NXT Superstar and a main roster talent on deck, just in case they needed them for the Women’s Royal Rumble match.
Ivy Nile and Maxine Dupri were at the Royal Rumble on Saturday as alternates in case they were needed.

Obviously, WWE didn’t need to call on their alternatives, because their original plan went through without any issues. It is still interesting to note exactly who WWE had on standby just in case they needed them.
