8 Surprising things that can happen at WWE Royal Rumble

WWE Royal Rumble will take place on 27 January 2019 at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. This will be the thirty-second edition of the pay-per-view. WWE has booked many good matches throughout the card.

We will have the traditional Royal Rumble matches (both men & women). Brock Lesnar will defend his Universal Championship against Finn Balor. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles is the match for the WWE Title. Ronda Rousey vs Sasha Banks & Asuka vs Becky Lynch are the matches for the Raw and Smackdown Women's Championship, respectively.

These matches are enough for WWE to give us a good show. But Royal Rumble is a show that is known for the element of surprise. And there is a lot that WWE can possibly do to surprise the fans.

In this article, we will talk about 8 shocking things that can happen at WWE Royal Rumble PPV:

#8 Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn Return in the Royal Rumble match

WWE has been advertising the return of Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn for about two months now. They haven't given us an exact date but we know that it is imminent. Both Owens & Zayn are supposedly cleared to return and it's only a matter of when WWE books their comeback.

If the word is to be believed and they are clear for in-ring competition, Royal Rumble is a perfect time to bring them back. WWE needs more superstars after the Rumble to make new storylines. Owens & Zayn would work really good as individuals and even as a tag team.

Owens & Zayn are always a treat to watch & it will definitely be a surprise considering they are not announced for the pay-per-view. I'm sure that it will bring out a loud pop from the Phoenix crowd.
