The most exciting match on the WWE calendar, the Royal Rumble is just a matter of days away, and Sunday's event will officially start the WWE on their annual road to WrestleMania.

The Royal Rumble is often seen as a precursor to WrestleMania and the 30 man match itself is regularly used to give the WWE Universe several hints as to what the WrestleMania card is likely to look like.

With the rumour mill now well and truly churning as Sunday's event gets ever closer, let's take a look at 5 matches the WWE could set up in this year's Men's Royal Rumble match.


#5 Shane McMahon Vs The Miz

Shane McMahon and The Miz are highly likely to win the SmackDown Tag Team Championships at the Royal Rumble, but that doesn't mean that the duo won't pull double duty on Sunday night.

The Miz's relationship with Shane McMahon has been one of the most baffling storyline developments in recent months, and logic would now suggest that this storyline will culminate in a match between the two men at WrestleMania 35.

The seeds for that will likely be planted very soon, whether they win the titles or not, and one of the easiest ways for the WWE to do that is to have one of the men eliminate the other in the Royal Rumble match.

This would plant the seeds of mistrust that will eventually lead their break-up in the coming months.
