![]() WWE Cruiserweight championship – Rich Swann (c) vs. Prediction: Charlotte RETAINS the Raw Women's championship ![]() I also don't see her flat-out beating Bayley, so I'm thinking that the champion will find some nefarious means to retain. The match should be good, but I don't see Charlotte losing the title just yet. WWE Raw Women's championship – Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Prediction: Reigns WINS the Universal championship I'm fully aware that Chris Jericho being in a shark cage doesn't fully prevent him from having some type of affect on the match, but I think Reigns will overcome that and claim the Universal title. Roman ReignsĪs much as it would upset a lot of fans, I just don't see a scenario where Owens holds on to the title, so I'm going with Reigns. WWE Universal championship – Kevin Owens (c) vs. Prediction: Styles RETAINS the WWE championship John CenaĪll signs point toward Cena finally beating Styles and claiming his record-tying 16th world title, but I don't think that's going to happen.Īll of the signs pointing toward Cena winning is the reason why I believe Styles will find a way to defeat the 15-time champion yet again and hold on to his WWE championship.Ĭena has been talking a lot of trash in recent weeks and even conveniently forgot the champ's name on the Today Show, which leads me to believe the Royal Rumble will be the time for Styles to prove himself worthy of being a top star … yet again. Prediction: Samoa Joe WINS the Royal Rumble I know it may be a crazy prediction since he isn't technically in the match, but that's my pick. I think this would be a good time to break that pattern and create a new star in the process, and since Joe has not been officially assigned to either brand he could be a free agent that gets to choose which title he challenges for. We have seen surprise entrants win the Royal Rumble before such as John Cena in 2008 and Edge in 2010, but we have never seen someone debut on the main roster by winning the match. What better way to debut a star like Joe than in the Royal Rumble and have him win it all? ![]() He has nothing left to prove in NXT and the next logical place for him to go is to the main roster. ![]() Joe hadn't appeared on NXT television for weeks until he was finally shown sitting in the front row at NXT Takeover: San Antonio Saturday night. Part of me thinks that the winner will be someone that has not been announced and hopefully one of those unannounced names turns out to be former NXT champion Samoa Joe. Triple H said in a recent interview that the outcome of the match would be one that no one expects, which tells me none of the names I just mentioned will be the last man standing. ![]() This is the most star-studded Royal Rumble field in recent memory with a plethora of names that could potentially win the match, which makes it more exciting heading in.Īlthough I could easily pick names like The Undertaker, Brock Lesnar, Goldberg, Braun Strowman, Randy Orton and Dean Ambrose, I'm going off the beaten path a little here. With that being the case, let's not waste anymore time and get right down to the predictions. WWE has pulled out all of the stops to make sure the 30th annual Royal Rumble is a lot more memorable than the ones of recent years. It has been a long time since the Royal Rumble has felt this grand, but such is the case when it comes to this year's event, which is set for Sunday night at the Alamodome in San Antonio. ![]()
