Max Scherzer has the fire and determination that it takes to outlast every other Royal Rumble participant.  He has a great character already in place with his intensity.  His differently colored eyes add another layer to his mystique, much like how Viscera intimidated his competitors with eyes like we’ve never seen before.  We’ve seen Scherzer take the ball, and go the distance plenty of times before, but in a Rumble he’ll need to harness his energy for the big moments.
