I’ll be honest, I am a Cena fan but these days he seems to be falling by the wayside as other names rise up and he just isn’t as far over as he was when he was younger. Then we have John Cena who is going for his 16th World Title in the hope to equalise Ric Flair’s record. He truly is one of the best wrestlers on the roster and even as he ages, he still never fails to impress whilst in the ring. In less than 12 months he has managed to break the long standing tradition that a former TNA wrestler has won the biggest reward in the WWE. Since AJ Styles made his debut this time last year at the Royal Rumble, he really has taken Smackdown by force. She still needs time to develop her character and the fans need more time for her to grow on them. It is also worth pointing out that she hasn’t lost at a PPV to date.īayley has had a good run as a face this time round and she does seem to be slowly winning the crowd over to her side, but I do believe that she just isn’t ready to hold the belt yet. Now don’t get me wrong, I like Charlotte Flair and I strongly believe she helped re-define women’s wrestling, but she really doesn’t need the belt anymore, to the extent that I believe it is killing the prestige of the title. The main reason is because Charlotte keeps managing to retain the belt even though she doesn’t really need it. Although I am not currently up to date with the cruiserweights, I am still impressed with him every time I tune in.Įven though women’s wrestling has come a long way, I find that the division has started losing steam over the last few months. Swann is a pretty decent champ and he has held the belt off from wrestlers such as The Brian Kendrick and TJ Perkins. Plus, the man really can fly (I swear he was born with wings!). He put on an outstanding match at the UK Championship tournament and there is no doubt that he is a firm favourite with the fans since turning heel. Neville really has excelled since he returned from injury and his current heel run is amazing. So here are my predictions for this years Royal Rumble. It is at these events that wrestlers such as John Cena and Rusev have joined the roster and they have all made big impressions (more so in John Cena’s case). This is and always has been one of my favourite events of the year because the WWE use this event as a chance to bring back some old faces and chuck us some new ones into the mix. Well it’s that time of year in the WWE calendar for arguably the best pay-per-view the WWE has to offer the Royal Rumble.
