This year's Royal Rumble will see some blockbuster matches, apart from the two battle royal matches of the men and women. Finn Balor will finally get a chance to face off against Brock Lesnar, while AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan continue their heated rivalry.

Over on the women's side, Becky Lynch will get an opportunity to win back the SmackDown women's title from Asuka, while Sasha Banks gets a shot at Ronda Rousey's RAW women's title.

The show is bound to create a huge buzz with surprise entrants, exciting matches, as well as shocking twists and turns.

There are certain things that the WWE Universe wants to see at the Royal Rumble, but WWE may hold it back or not deem it the perfect time to do it.

Here are 5 things that should happen at Royal Rumble but won't:

Bobby Lashley recently became the Intercontinental champion, his first title in the WWE since returning to the promotion last year, as he defeated Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins in a triple threat match.

Since his return to the WWE, Lashley has feuded with several RAW Superstars, but many WWE fans believe that there is more that we can expect from the former TNA star. One dream feud that WWE fans were eager to watch Lashley be involved in is a match with Universal champion Brock Lesnar.

Lesnar and Lashley have similar backgrounds, as both have experience in the WWE and MMA. This is a match that can be set up at the Rumble in a backstage segment, or even either of them interfering in the other's match.

Lashley vs. Lesnar would be a marquee match for WrestleMania 35, and a match that would tick all the boxes for Vince McMahon.

I'm not sure WWE would want to set up this match at Rumble and drive the focus away from the winners of the Royal Rumble match, or the other title matches.
