3 WWE Superstars who might benefit from Royal Rumble 2019
Royal Rumble was the first PPV of the year, and it was an exhilarating show at Chase Field. The WWE Universe's excitement was sky-high as there were some mind-blogging matches on the card. There were some surprising entrants, and new champions were crowned in Pheonix.
All the titles were defended at Chase Field, and it was a 7-hour long show (if you include the pre-show). The men's Royal Rumble match closed the show which was won by Seth Rollins. Becky Lynch entered the women's Rumble match after a stirring match against the Empress of Tomorrow. Lynch lost the title match, but she won the women's Royal Rumble match.
The other title matches were action-packed, as some of the titles changed hands. Nakamura became a two-time US Champion after defeating Rusev. The Miz and Shane McMahon won the Smackdown Tag Team titles against The Bar. The WWE Champion Daniel Bryan pinned AJ Styles after Erick Rowan interfered in the match.
Brock Lesnar defeated Finn Balor in an intense battle. The Raw women's champion Ronda Rousey beat Sasha Banks, and Ronda was pushed to her limit. The Cruiserweight Champion Buddy Murphy retained the title successfully in a fatal-4 way match.
The road to WrestleMania 35 started at Chase Field, and several storylines will develop for the Grandest Stage of Them All. Numerous superstars could benefit from Royal Rumble this year.
Here we discuss three superstars who could have the benefit after Royal Rumble.
#3 Sasha Banks could get back in the title picture
Sasha Banks had a great start of this year, as she got a title shot in the first PPV of the year. Banks was not in the title picture for a long time. She had a dismal last year when she was excluded from some PPVs. As a matter of fact, most of her matches were in the kick-off shows, and she did not have any notable feud last year.
Sasha Banks is one of the Four Horsewomen of WWE, and he has enormous talent. She is a former NXT Women's Champion who gave Match of the Year in 2015. Banks won the Raw women's champion four times, and she had a memorable rivalry with Charlotte Flair in 2016.
Sasha Banks lost her way in recent years. However, the former Raw women's champion made a statement at Chase Field where she went toe to toe with Ronda Rousey. Banks and Bayley are front-runners to win the women's tag team titles.
The first Women's Tag Team Champions will be crowned at Elimination Chamber next month. Afterwards, Banks could win the Raw women's title, and she might get a long title run, unlike her previous title reigns.
