5 men who could win the 2018 Royal Rumble

This could be a big year
This could be a big year for someone...

WWE's big Royal Rumble event is coming up on January 28 and will jumpstart the Road To WrestleMania. There are always certain to be more than a few surprises along the way as WWE hits the straight-stretch toward the Show Of Shows, and the Royal Rumble is a perfect place for all that to begin.

Let's take a look at 5 men who could win the 2018 Royal Rumble and explore some of the reasoning why it could work from a booking perspective.

#1 Roman Reigns

Roman Riegns
Roman Reigns is the current favourite and he's not even in the match yet...

Let's start off with The Big Dog because he's certainly a favourite to win anyway. The Shield's comeback meant a huge babyface push for Reigns and it looks like he's well on his way to becoming the top babyface of the company just like Vince McMahon has dreamed about for years.

WrestleMania 34 seems to be the place where it will all go down for Reigns and if he can pull off another Royal Rumble win here and go onto the Show Of Shows to be the first guy in forever to kick out of Lesnar's punishing F5, it could seal the deal on his babyface status.
