PREDICTION: Triple H Wins World Title @ Royal Rumble

[AronaBeatsJones]

It seems obvious at this point that they will be going with Hunter/Reigns at WM32, and I most certainly think it'll be for the WWE WHC. The only other viable candidate is Lesnar, and he doesn't really need it at this point, especially since whatever route they go, they're looking to get it back on Reigns, and Lesnar/Reigns II is undesirable at this point.

However, it seems like they're hell bent on having Reigns be involved in the title picture, and WWE's attached to their preferred "babyface's journey to the title," rather than the other way around. I don't see Hunter chasing Reigns' title at WrestleMania, but I do think that the reverse will happen.

My prediction for the Royal Rumble is this:

Last five will be something along the lines of: Reigns, Ambrose, and the Usos (perhaps more babyfaces), and Hunter as the lone heel. While the clock is ticking to #30, it'll seem obvious that a heel will come out to help Hunter, and assuming WWE's willing to make some compromises as far as just booking talents without contracts given the injury plague they're suffering with Cena, Orton, and Rollins on the shelf, it won't surprise me if #30 ends up being these guys:

I heard something a little different.. In pw discussion.

 

[Zezima]

I heard something a little different.. In pw discussion.

I think HHH vs Reigns happens at fastlane.

 

[Crawler89]

been rumored for a little bit now, and basically all the dirt sheets said the same thing last week

Reigns is runnin wild in the rumble brother, then HHH is the surprise #30 and they screw Reigns

 

[surgeyou1]

3 people can't come out at number 30

 

[Michaelangelo]

Brock will win

 

[AronaBeatsJones]

3 people can't come out at number 30

I would imagine that AJ Styles would be the official entrant, and Anderson/Gallows would be the back-up. It's a No DQ match, and I think it's happened before where multiple entrants came out at a single number (can't remember when, though).

 

[Hitman81]

It's such shitty booking. Which is why it makes sense.

 

[rikwebb]

Think Anderson/Gallows are still booked up on Indy dates for this month

 

[SUBLIME FAN]

I think Bray Wyatt wins. Setting up Wyatt vs Lesnar at mania. Reigns vs Hunter still happens at mania as well

 

[Crawler89]

its either: hhh, reigns or brawk

Im going more like:
HHH wins
Reigns vs Brawk at fastlane
Wyatts screw Brawk at fastlane

HHH vs Reigns at WM32
Wyatts (some kind of match, handicap, maybe just vs bray) vs Brawk at WM

 

[AronaBeatsJones]

BOOM.

Well done. Spot on.
